Thank you, Lee. I love all your tours but, as a Master Mason, the tours of the Masonic buildings are my favorites. Such a beautiful temple. For many years I was on the Board of Directors for the Sacramento Temple, another magnificent 100 year + old building. Much smaller -- 4 floors as opposed to 7 -- it was still amazing. The symbolic art work in this one (and, yes, I understand it all) is beyond beautiful. Never knew you were a collector of Shrine stuff. Shrine is a club and basically exists to support the hospitals, where no child or family has ever had to pay a dime for treatment. As they say: Not all Masons are Shriners but all Shriners are Masons. Those of us who are (like me) belong because of the hospitals. Oh --- and I've no idea about that guy at the end. There is nothing "secret" about any Masonic building. Even loge rooms can be visited by anyone as long as no official meeting is taking place. I doubt he is a Mason but if he is, well, I'm embarrassed for my Gentle Craft and, as a Master Mason, I apologize for your abrupt and unpleasant treatment. That is NOT Masonic behavior.

Saw many concerts there in the early 70's. Beautiful building with amazing acoustics. I recall a Miles Davis show. When Miles was more than an hour late for the gig, a member of the audience got up and entertained the restless crowd with a stand-up routine, without a microphone.
The Masonic Temple in Detroit, Michigian had it's conerstone laid on September 12, 1922 and George Washington's trowel was used during the ceremony. This Masonic Temple is the largest Masonic Temple in the world boasting 16 floors, 1,037 rooms some of which were never completed, it cost 6.5 million dollars (about 87.9 million dollars in today's money) and it seats 4,400 and it was opened for use in 1926. B.B. King and Jimi Hendrix are just two of the many performers who have brought their talents to this amazing venue.
One night in a modern theatre box, then a night on a ski hill under a tent, then this? Man, Lee, you do get around. Giant Steps, indeed!! Thank you, yet again, for getting the steps in to give us the chairside tour!
@robertashton8069.......Would you know how or why the masons got the reputation they have of being a secret society, secret handshakes, cult like status, etc
Hello lee. I don’t think there are many artists that are so in awe of the venues that they are performing in like you. We are really lucky that you decided to open a RUclips channel. Now we can enjoy just like you, the amazing venues. Just imagine that Covid did not happen. You would just go on with your life and we would miss out on all the good stuff and we didn’t get to know THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON that roams this earth and therefore I am really proud to follow you. So in a way I thank Covid. 😁🙏🏻 Thank you for taking the time, every time, to show us around. We really appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️
Whoa!! That was uncool. I was really enjoying the tour brother. Some people don't need authority. I hope everything was light after that. Have a good gig!
A great facility. Haven’t been there since my high school prom back in 1965! Thanks for the tour, Lee. Btw, saw the documentary on the Immediate Family. Blew me and Karen away. Something really special. Happy for you guys. Cheers. ~ Mark
Hello Tom, have you already arrived at Oshkosh? Just saw a picture of what used to be one of Elvis‘ private jets, now converted into a RV and on display at Oshkosh.
When I first moved into my current apartment, ten years ago, I noticed that my neighbor’s backyard bordered the local Masonic Lodge’s property. From my balcony I could make out the symbols in their stained glass windows. Being fascinated by what I saw, I decided to grab my camera and take a few pictures of the building. Within minutes my doorbell started ringing incessantly. When I got to the door, however, there was no one there. I took it as a warning not to get to involved. I tell ya, those Masons aren’t in to photography
Lee, it always fills me with joy, watching your excitement, when you walk around the venue, there is no better way for me to relax about the daily stress and political situation we are living in right now ! Mahalo nui loa from the beautiful Island Of Hawai’i
Thanks for the tour, I did a gig in the ballroom about 15 years ago and I went to the first Hearns/Leonard Closed Circuit fight in the main room where you guys are performing back in the 80's.
Hey Detroit! You watch this channel too? I started watching first year of pandemic. Cool to see you here Bro. Got a few shirts, signed book and an art piece. I have learned so much watching this channel. Enjoy your day my friend.
@@detroitdabber313 3 that stand out are : Ringo and Joe Walsh funk 49, Billy Thorpe Children of the sun, Footage of RedRocks. He filmed Redrocks twice. There are many more. Good stories that are priceless. Have a nice day my friend.
What a great historic theatre. The history and design of this place is just incredible. Brads sax floating thru the air and elevator was just epic. Thanks Lee
An absolutely beautiful building. I'm glad some of these old places are being saved. I wish they all could be saved. These places are pieces of our history.😊❤
Wish you would've gone into one of the bathrooms, which were redone 3 years ago. I installed the toilet partitions. Not a glamorous job, but a necessary one!😄
Hi Leland, great video! I saw the Rolling Stones there in '78. It was the best show I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot, including you playing bass with many acts over the years. Thanks!
I'm glad we heard you outside later but still. I remember a lot of the interior of one in Morris, Illinois, age 7 to 8. They let us use the building for church. Then in Colorado, did a few parades with the Shriners in the little cars and their fezzes, doing all kinds of crazy driving around with the monkeys and slaloming through the floats. I was a clown At some point when I was just out of high school we went a few times to this great restaurant, that had lots of Shriner memorabilia inside, and all the little cars were parked there encircling the building under some twide eaves, all chained together. That building, just after the exit west to old Arvada, CO, resembled a Masonic temple to me as well. At that time the outside was pink similar to the way Casa Bonita had also been in the day. However inside was very nice and supper club like would've been a great dinner spot on the way to prom. It had a lot of decanters on display of cartoon like couples, obviously hand made ceramics. Hundreds of them, encased in small sliding glass shelves at just the right height to look around at while seated. They were fancy. I felt reasonable safe as the Jr. high clown throwing candy to the little kids on the sides, of the route with the go carts and monkeys riding all around me. Would probably be nervous now, about the monkeys just running all around. Two of the Shriners seemed to be handlers of the monkeys though. They ran back to those same two men jumping on their shoulders and riding on the top of their Fezzes.
Remarkable place! Didn't know it would have a larger second theatre! Shame you couldn't peek into any of the temples (probably locked) Thanks for the our Lee
What a coincidence, I have those same ceilings in my house and a slightly smaller ballroom. It’s a cozy space to relax in my fez. Seriously cool building Lee. Thanks for another great tour.
Here are a couple for you Lee: George Washington: Joined the Fredericksburg, Virginia lodge in 1752 at age 20 and became a master Mason the following year. Benjamin Franklin: An active Mason for 60 years, Franklin was also a Founding Father who made a lasting impact on American society. Paul Revere and Joseph Warren: Served as heads of the fraternity in Massachusetts. John Hancock, John Sullivan, Lafayette, Baron Fredrick von Stuben, and Nathanael Greene: Other well-known Masons involved with the founding of America. Harry S. Truman: Served as Grand Master of Masons in Missouri and as President of the United States. Andrew Jackson: Jackson's status as a Mason became a major political issue during his presidency. James Buchanan: Master of the Masonic Lodge of Lancaster, PA, and the only president to be born in Pennsylvania
We rehearsed the Radio City Christmas show here for about 12 years on the second floor. There’s an unfinished swimming pool on the top floor. There’s also a full-blown TV news room up there. Myself and a couple other musicians took a lunch break one day and actually got lost in the building. It’s an incredible place. Thanks for posting Lee.
Lee it was the absolute bottom left button under the ONe button the plain button with no numbers on it!!!!! 2 floors under that found piano floor(2). That is a confusing panel which should be easy .....so many rooms on all the floors!!!!((Mason things). Hahaha.
Went through Scottish right there long time ago. D. Davis Jefferson Lodge, number 553 St. Clair Shores, Michigan thanks for the tour. Brought back a lot of good memories.
An amazing place. Oddly, while Detroit is a distance from me that is "concert range", a few concerts in the Detroit general area in my past, I have never been there. I will say with some confidence that you will find a SIGNIFICANT CONTRAST between this and your next gig venue! On a personal note, I had maternal grandparents who were Freemasons (technically, Freemason and "Eastern Star", because wimmens can't be Freemasons), so my childhood memories hanging around their house include the bits of Freemason paraphernalia around ("what's the thing with the big G in the middle?").
Extra notes... "I need you to stop!"? What? With Brad- you might have said "you might end up back here because of the piano, but you REALLY should check out the ballroom, first, anyway!". Oh yeah... the "I don't even want to know" apparatus. That's a machine for cutting and threading pipe. Might be in use for old plumbing work, certainly needed for any work on old radiator heating (mid July a good time to work on that), and being onstage there, they might be doing something for some kind of theatrical structure whatzit. Who knows.
😁 Glad I got to see that other one, briefly. 1. I've done time in a library that looked a bit like that. 2. It had to happen some time. We're constantly asking ourselves "should he be going in there?" Have only gotten as far as the lobby on this one so far but it looks spectacular! 👍👍
Is that why they stopped you earlier? They don't want you filming the "inner sactum" of their clubhouse? My mother was in Eastern Star, but I never understood the whole "secret club" thing. It's just silly to me.
Music shows what a collective can do when everyones on the same page. Everyone on thier own can sound overwhelming, but when the song starts and Lyle begins telling the story. Its a beautiful thing when theres harmony.
Grand old building! This video is #1603? Not #1703 The next video # 1604 "This is a first" after you were told you did not have permission to video? Love these videos! Continued best wishes for safe travels!
Hi Lee!! Not sure if you heard but Greg Phillinganes got sick twice while on stage with Toto and was taken to the hospital. No word on what happened or how he's doing. Thought you'd want to know!!!! Bob Love
Hi again, Leland. Great to see you got inside. You probably know and don't have time, but Third Man Records, Jack White' s Label, is close to you as well. Now go scare Brad.
Tell Brad......Say Hey Brad keeping going down the stairs and then walk straight ahead to the Crystal ballroom.....I just did a Shuffle off to Buffalo Down there it has great acoustics!!!!!!!!! Lee if you did that I would be howling.....A literal shuffle off to Buffalo side step.....
I’ve seen concerts in every venue in Detroit over morevthan a few decades and a few of them have managed to avoid the decay of time and this is certainly one of them. But for me nothing beats the intimacy of the Gem or St. Andrews.
This is the first time I ever recall this happening at a venue for you. I hope there are no repercussions for filming inside of this venue. Cheers, Leland! ✌️
Nice video tour! I haven’t been there in many years… It’s truly a magnificent structure indeed! Welcome to the D…!!! Who were you in town playing with…?

Would you happen to know the reason for so many rooms. I'm thinking you can only use so many at one time 🤔
Fascinating facts, thank you. 🙏
@@wynnssecret8243 You can use more than one room at a time. Sometimes the building hosts several events at the same time.
Jack White donated a couple million to pay back taxes to save it.

What an interesting venue. The “apparatus” you saw is for cutting, and threading pipe to accommodate pipe fittings that screw on the ends of pipe.
...I worked there as an usher for 3 years from 79-81'...the building is an endless structural fascination....
You could even here Brad loft the piano up the flights
