Bio
.... "The Best Holiday record of the decade without question" Bob Boilen from NPR's ALL THINGS CONSIDERED .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. ......Get the LeeVees One Sheet HERE:...... .. .. ........ .. .. ......Sign up for the latest LeeVees news....join the email list!! ...... .. ..The NEW Hanukkah Rocks EP is now available to buy at iTunes!.. .. .. .......... ........ .. .. .. .. ..Watch the new video from The LeeVees - "How Do You Spell Channukkahh"!!.. .. .. .. .. .. .. ......LeeVees - How Do You Spell.. from ..The LeeVees.. on ..Vimeo..... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... ....Hanukkah Rocks Available Now! .... .. Check out .... iTunes.. .. and .. ..Yahoo Music.. .. to get your hands on the new album. Ten tracks to help you ring in Hanukkah this year!.... And for those you that like to keep it oldschool and have the actual cd, case, and booklet...you can .... ORDER.. .. your copy now!! .... ..Who are The LeeVees.......... Name four great Hanukkah songs. OK, then how about two good Chanukkah songs? Not easy, huh? “Dreidel, Spin, Spin, Spin” is a fun little ditty but let’s face it, it doesn’t exactly rock and/or roll. Even the great Jewish songwriters, from Irving Berlin to Lieber and Stoller, only wrote Christmas songs. The Festival of Lights could really use some tunes!.... Two nice Jewish guys have taken up the important task of writing a bunch of great, rockin’ Hanukah songs. Adam Gardner (Guster) and Dave Schneider (the Zambonis) have joined forces and started a band called the LeeVees, and they have a new album of sweet and rockin’ indie-pop songs solely about Channuka called “Hanukkah Rocks.” Yes, every song is about Chanuka. Some say such a concept is a bit obsessive but Adam and Dave prefer the phrase “extremely focused.”.... So that is how the LeeVees began but, if you see The LeeVees live and hear some of the new songs such as "Karpas" or "Jewish Stars" you can't not notice the fantastic other 3 members of The LeeVees. On drums, Michael Azerad. We call him Mr. Rhythym, sticks and the less exciting Mike. Michael is also a very successful music writer. We highly recommend you read his books "Oour Band Could Be Your Life" and "Come As You are". On everything (bass, guitar, keys) is Shawn Fogel. Four octaves of goodness on the vocals, a huge head of jew fro and a great new band of his own called The Golden Bloom. Lastly, our pal Shankbone/Dan Saks. He plays everything too. Sadly, he has only a 3 1/2 octave range. Shank is the man with a plan and has an amzing new band called DELEON out now on J-DUB RECORDS. We love our band and we know you will too.....

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT POSITIVE THINKING ...
"To think negatively is like taking a WEAKENING DRUG.
When you say, "I CAN'T" and EXPECT THE WORST,
you become WEAK and UNHAPPY. When you say
"I CAN", and EXPECT SUCCESS, you fill yourself with
CONFIDENCE and HAPPINESS."
~ Remez Sasson

A Lawyer in a Mousetrap - They Left $$Cash$$ as Bait
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT LAWYERS ...
How do you get a lawyer down from a tree? Easy - just cut the rope."
"It was so cold last week that I saw a couple of lawyers with their hands in their OWN pockets."
"How was copper wire invented? Two lawyers got hold of a penny at the same time."
"How many lawyers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? How many can you afford?"
"The two partners in a law firm were having lunch when suddenly one of them jumped up and said, "I have to go back to the office - I forgot to lock the safe!" The other partner replied, "What are you worried about? WE'RE BOTH HERE."
"How does a lawyer go to sleep at night? Easy - first he LIES on one side, then he LIES on the other."
LAUGHTER IS THE SPICE OF LIFE!
