In 1983-84 at the time I heard the Good News of Jesus Christ and did cone to recieve the Lord as my Saviour. I had gone to a Christian Book Store and there was a Cassette Demo Booth with Testimonys of Rock Musicians who were testifying! man. I wanted to jump in the sky air being free ! I have always had good hearing .Jesus is hid name. I share hoping someone would believe like Abram did Genesis 15 When he did believe God ! And Romans 3 and 4.

Max sounded as good as Mark Farner Mark Farner been playing shows on his own but he’s not touring anymore. As Rockstars are getting older things changed, I’m just grateful they have other people to take their place to keep the bands sharing.

I have a rhetorical question ..if so many of you don't like this band and think it's just a cover band, even though 2/3 of the original masters are still playing the songs that they created and that we love, then why did you even open this link ? Just so you could belly-ache and whine ? Don't get me wrong, I love Mark Farner and think he is one of if not the best frontmen ever, but he was not the all in all of this band. No one ever is in any band. That's why it's called a band. What they created back in the day was iconic and is still is. To say that they are just a cover band or a tribute band is disrespectful and rude. Think of how many of our favorite bands made so.e of their best music after the original lineup had changed ..I'll use Deep Purple as an example. Anyway, if you don't like Grand Funk in it's current state, then just stay away and make yourself happy. There isn't any one of you who would like to see the original lineup back together and jamming more than I do (I never saw them live) but let's face it; if they did get back together it still wouldn't be the same. There is too much animosity and water under the bridge. That's just my opinion. You're welcome to yours too, but if all you can do is cry about it and say negative stuff then you shouldn't say anything. I guarantee you that if Grand Funk comes anywhere close enough for me to go see them and I can go, I'll be going. I can say the same thing about Mark Farner and his band. I hate that they can't put their differences aside, but im.not gonna let that stop me from enjoying the music. Yall have a blessed day

All these comments about Leonid and Friends. The current iteration of Beginnings (not this one) blows away Leonid and Friends (who didn't even play all Chicago songs the last time I saw them). The current Beginnings lineup has a vastly superior guitarist and two new horns players. The bassist has also come a long way with his vocals.

Lets face it ,if one surviving member of our classic rock bands past is alive in any form...it's better than a 100% cover band( yeah.. it sucks). If ya don't like it stay home and watch the originals on the computer & and stop complaining. Grace could probably still do a better version of GRACE SLICK than any of them...sorry CATHY....still love ya.
