Your account of you meeting the Leonid gang was so moving that it was like if I was there in person with you! I am a big fan of your channel and I love what you do. Totally awesome man!!! Keep up the great work!!! Happy Holidays!!!
What a fantastic story, Jeff. Thanks so much for sharing. My wife and I have seen Leonid & Friends a handful of times, and you described it perfectly - impeccable music and fabulous entertainers. Can't wait for the next tour!
@Stratele Studios... Jeff, so glad you were able to see Leonid & Friends last month. I am not at all surprised by your reaction! These guys are wonderful musicians and human beings. Great recounting of your night and BONUS POINTS for meeting Richard Carpenter!!!! Well done. Keep up the great work, and Happy Holidays from Texas!
I'm so glad that you got the chance of seeing them in person. They are truly special and quite a pleasure to hear. They are all Russian citizens and just let music tell their feelings. I've seen them 4 times now. I can't wait to see them again ❤❤
The joy in your night comes through so well in this video. You helped spread the talent of L&F from your channel. Glad you had a tremendous time!! You've earned it. God bless.
Wow . . . How awesome Jeff, love how humbled you are by the experience! Saw L&F last night in Vegas, it was a blast. Nigel Olsson joined them, how cool is that!
Seen them 5 times and every show was perfect, true pro's. At meet and greet they were the kindest people to meet. I'm handicap and they made it a point to leave their spot and come over to me and takes Pic's. The drummer gave me a Russian doll keychain. I even got to speak with Leonid and told him how much they make people feel good. What a night I'll never forget it.
My family and I flew out from Honolulu to Los Angeles specifically to see Leonid & Friends in Oxnard at that same show. It was cold for us islanders, but it was an unbelievable night, and did NOT disappoint. An unforgettable evening, with Richard Carpenter's presence adding much nostalgia to the event. Thanks for sharing!
When you first meet Leonid!! He was sitting... no he was standing... too funny!.. and Richard Carpenter... wow What a fabulous video. and thank you so much for sharing this.
Jeff, I got just as much enjoyment from watching this as I've gotten from the L&F reactions you've done. It's been fun to watch your appreciation and relationship with the group grow. Looks like you had a ton of fun. Thanks for sharing.
What a wonderful story!! Thank you so much for sharing it. I am so glad that I found this channel! Well...nothing random. Que Sera Sera (whatever will be will be).
I saw this band 8 times. Always enjoyed them. Last time was the Blues Cruise where I got to meet every member. Incredibly friendly people. I knew you would love them.
Thank you for sharing your adventure. My wife and I have seen them twice now up in Arroyo Grande. They are fantastic. Thank you for sharing their experience at the next level. Love your channel. Keep the music flowing.
What fuj!!!! Thanks for sharing your wonderful experience Jeff. I love "Leonid and Friends" and love your critiques. Sharing your experience is almost as good as being there. Thanks again Jeff
Omg, I can't imagine how great this must've been, what an incredible experience!!!! Couldn't have happened to a better person Jeff, you deserve it and thanks for sharing with all of us!
You really hit the jackpot! So happy that you got to meet them! Fantastic musicians and the most genuine, friendly people you will ever meet! They are truly appreciative of their fans and exactly the kind of people anyone would love to have as friends and neighbors. Amazing how similar Russians are to us, isn't it?
How cool for you Jeff. I have seen them 7 times and met them at the 2nd show they ever did in the U.S. The phenomenon keeps going thanks to people like you.
Jeff I'm so happy for you. Absolute cool gesture to participate in the auction too. I can tell you're getting choked up while you tell us about the evening. My thanks to Paul the Bad Ass and Ray for their efforts in making your evening so special.
Wow, this is really fantastic that you reviewed their studio material and now seeing Leonid & Friends live. Way to go Jeff! So much joy-you hit the nail right on the head. ❤😊🎸🥁
So happy for your fantastic experience with Leonid & Friends, Jeff. I was fortunate enough to snag a VIP pass from the band's U.S. Tour manager at the Belly Up in Aspen, a wonderful small venue. I also found the band to be so humble and generous with their time back stage and thoroughly enjoyed meeting them. I also got to hear them at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville eleven days later. They are the best live band to hear in the entire world. Don't miss them if you have a chance, folks! And thanks for supporting them on your channel, Jeff!
Jeff, you gave me goosebumps! What a night you had! I got to meet the band in Denver and was tongue tied for sure. But your night would be hard to beat. Thanks for what you do in support of this amazing band.
This fine group is loaded with talent! Thanks so much for sharing the wonderful experience you had with them. Part of your backstage meeting is either on their RUclips channel or one of the Leonid & Friends Facebook pages…I don’t recall which. And, yes, definitely hire that LA based singer…he’s the best! 😊
What a great experiance! Looks like you had a really nice night. I would love to see them sometime. Thanks for sharing your experiance and making us a part of you night!
I’ve been hoping you’d do a video like this! After all the love you’ve shown for their music on your channel you are most deserving of such a great meeting and to finally see L & F. 😊
Hey Jeff, I really liked hearing about your experience with Leonid and friends! Last night I got to do the same in San Diego at the Belly Up Tavern. I won the shirt bid and got to meet them, take pictures, etc.. They are so down to earth good people which is rare in their business. I feel honored to meet them and know they are so blessed and talented. -Mike
This makes me so happy, to know that you finally got to see/hear them in concert, and to have such a fantastic experience with them!!! Thanks for sharing it with the rest of us. I didn't get to see them this tour, but am definitely looking forward to seeing them again next year. As for who you will be collaborating with in LA, my guess has to be Danil Buranov... What an opportunity!
So happy you were able to have this experience! My wife and I were fortunate to serve the band in the Green Room at this year's Dayton, OH show. We have followed them since their first tour in January of 2019.
Wow Jeff, that was fun to watch. I seen them in September. Watching you with the band makes my memories of the concert that much more special. They sure are a great, happy, fun bunch of talented musicians. Thanks for sharing your experience. Jeff Thompson Rockford Illinois Hello Sarah Georges too
I’m so glad you got to meet the band. I knew you’d love them, they’re so down to earth and friendly. They’re so humble and love meeting their fans. It was a night you’ll never forget!!
Jeff, i am so happy that y'all are happy to have finally met this wonderful group of artists. Although i never had a AAA VIP pass, i did get to meet them all after the concert in Texas. Such gregarious and down to earth people they all are! ~Scott from Texas~
It must have been really nice to have met these amazing musicians and have them turn out to be amazing human beings as well in person. I'm truly happy for you and the experience you got to have.
❤❤ I'm so glad you got to experience an L&F concert! I have never seen a band as many times as them (7 currently)! They truly are music ambassadors! Thanks for sharing your experience Jeff! Huge fan of your show here in Ohio!!❤ Oh, and the answer to your question is Danil.. 😊
The wife and I see them anytime they are around. We did a cruise with them this year and they did a private unplugged concert for just their fans on the ship. we love each and every one of them.
I am so envious 0f you!! I love them so much!! I am glad you got to meet them. They are wonderful peopl. Ksenia is so great! I know you won't say so but I am going to take a wild guess and say it is Danny who lives in L.A>
Thanks for sharing Jeff, I know how you feel, I've seen them 8 times in 4 different cities and have been following them 8 years. As a friend of the band me and my wife have gotten a shout out at every show by roman and even invited on stage for the post show selfie twice! It's always a special show and feel blessed to be able know and be friends with such a wonderful group people and incredible musicians. I didn't go to the first shows in LA in 2019 and still kick myself for not going. Now I never miss the chance to see them when they roll through the west coast and we plan on seeing them next in Orlando in April when we are there on vacation next year. Glad you enjoyed the show and got to meet and hang out with them, and a bounds Richard Carpenter! Cheers!
Oh yes Jeff. I knew you would love them live. You got the VIP treatment. That had to be great to. As far as their performace goes. Leonid & Friends and Steely Dan are the two best live performances I have ever seen. Pure perfection in every aspect. So happy you had that experiance.❤👍
We've been waiting to hear how it all went! Thanks for taking the time to do this video. It's been a blessing watching you get to experience the joy of L&F. I remember how it felt at that first meet and greet back in 2019 when they were just starting to tour here. I couldn't believe how blown away I was by their talent and warmth. We just got our tickets for our 4th show this coming May at Salisbury Beach. Looking foward to hearing "who" you'll be working with! Oh, and have you ever reacted to Old Days yet? lol
Well, this crusty old fella got a little misty-eyed listening to this wonderful account. Thanks, Jeff, for sharing - but also for introducing me to Leonid and Friends. Hadn't run across them until finding your channel and I'm glad that happened. Thanks for all that.
I would LOVE to hear Leonid and Friends sing “Spinning Wheel” by Blood, Sweat and Tears!!! Perhaps, you could put a bug in their ear! BTW: I thoroughly enjoy your videos. NEVER mind…..I just found Leonid’s production of Spinning Wheel.
Enjoyed watching your recap of your L&F concert experience! Having seen them at least 5 times over the last few years including Oxnard last year which I flew 3000 miles to see that day!) I was disappointed I couldn't make it there this year from Denver to meet you. I grew up in Newbury Park up the road from you playing in our high school bands and know we would have had a lot in common! Anyways, its been great being along on your youtube journey of discovering this wonderful band that so lovingly recreates the wonderful songs of our shared musical lives! Thanks for the channel! btw....Danil!!!
Thank you, Jeff, for the shout outs in this video! It was an electric night! So, so glad you enjoyed it. Paul the Bad Ass BTW, I do know who you will work with off tour! 🤣
I was so jealous of you meeting everyone and getting a hug from Ksenia but I'm so pleased that the whole Leonid crew laid out the red carpet for you and so well deserved. What a great guy Roman is for coordinating everything and making sure everyone feels valued and included...

Hi Jeff! It was a real treat to get to meet you and to see my picture with you on You Tube!!! I was also really surprised to learn that you were the other bidder on the auction. By the way the band member living in LA is Danni!!! I'm glad you had a great time at the show as did I. I am just so overwhelmed by this group of musicians as it sure seems that you are. I hope to get another chance to see them live as soon as possible. Thanks for making the night a little more extra special Jeff!! Take care my friend!!! Bob Love, L.A. (Granada Hills)
Thanks for sharing your experience. I've been a fan of L&F since I first saw one of their early videos on RUclips. Like you, I was immediately blown away by their precision and overal musicianship. I don't think there's another band that is as impressive, overall.
Nope. I never would have guessed that is how you got on stage. But you definitely deserved a night like that! I would have loved to have gone and seen them. In fact, as I recall they are playing in Phoenix here tomorrow night but I don't really like to go to concerts alone. But if you ever want to see them again I'd be happy to tag along! I'd love to watch you play that last song on stage. I am so glad you got to meet all the members of the band, Richard Carpenter and Roman. He really is great!
Great to finally meet you (and your wife) in Oxnard. Hope to see you at future shows! Oleg's son (Ivan) was born just before the tour started. I know who the LA person is - he does not keep his Information a secret.
I know how it is to "lose" the L&F auction. Back on our anniversary in 2021, we were at a show in Effingham, IL and I was going back and forth with Ray (yes, THAT Ray) for a cowboy hat. Yep, Ray won it and I never let him forget it every time I see him!
Oh congratulations Jeff 👏👏🔥🌹👍that wonderful
