If you get a chance, go see him. I’m in Shipshewana Indiana and saw him last night. What a show, what a performer. The guy is eighty and he moves around like a twenty year old. When he sang God Bless the USA, I thought the venue was going to collapse due to the applause from the crowd.

Would have liked to see a video of that.

Leftists/globalists/democrats (I honestly cannot tell the difference between them anymore) are trying to destroy nationalism. Civic pride is being rebranded as somehow bigoted or equated to nazi-ism. Sadly, it is a poison that has been embraced in this country that accelerated under Obama and increases daily. The unrestricted influx of non-Americans has only made things worse.

He sure has made a career out of that song.

I've run the St. George (Utah) marathon a dozen times over the past 20 years. Each year, at mile 4 in the big desert lots north of the city, a homeowner would blare Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA."

It's a great pick me up and reminder of what a great country we live in.

I saw him in 1987 when he performed on the USS Midway as part of Bob Hope's USO tour. Incredibly evocative.

With 30 albums, 40 singles... 35 charting singles... and 25 million albums sold he is hardly a one hit wonder. He has some fantastic work out there worth revisiting.

I saw him once years ago. Great show... does he still break out and play his sax?

Yes they are. Hence, their use of the terms "white nationalist" and my new favorite "Christian nationalist". Apparently, according to them, these are bad things.

Here he is on sax, with a few of his famous friends.

Yes, he did last night. Played Tequila and the crowd loved it. He actually came down from the stage and held my wife's hand as he sang a song. She's still on cloud 9.
