Good for him. You get the sense that more than a couple of the kids didn't realize who the party-crasher was.

That was cool! Kravitz plays like a retro-rock that just sounds good.

Notice how he kicked the drummer out that couldn't keep a steady beat!-)

I like that he jumped in to support, but let them do their thing until they got him to sing. That does more for those kids than just performing for them. Some artists might get even pissed if it wasn't done perfectly. Good guy.

Yea, and it seemed to me the drummer kept a better beat after Lenny got up!
Like, he was showing the kid, "Here, try this!"

He heard The Guess Who playing "American Woman?" biggrin

ETA I know someone who met him and said he's one of the most down-to-earth, easiest people to talk to you'll ever meet, famous or "ordinary."

Cool! Thanks for,posting this!


Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”

That was awesome. I can't see any of the popular "boy" bands doing that, playing instruments and no "Auto-tune" would soon show up the real artists.

That's the difference between a real artist and a bunch of twats.

What a great post-reminded me I used to like that song.

Nice to see that side of New Orleans after recently watching vids on 'the gotti boyz'
