Not only do they sound exactly the same on record as live, but Rog sounds exactly the same now as he did 20 years ago. You can tell they still love what they're doing

They aren't lying about generations following them. My dad bought a less than jake album for me when I was a teen. I just took my 13 yo son to see these guys in July. My boy plays drums and no other band lights a fire under him like Less than Jake. I've never seen him happier than when he is playing Less than Jake.

This literally was so amazing. I’ve seen y’all play acoustic in Gainesville and it was probably one of the best things I’ve ever experienced. When Roger said you captured your fans as a specific point in time and it stuck, that is so on point, I’ve been listening since I was 11 and honestly your music is what has kept me going and pulled me out of so many tough times.. your shows are unmatched. Love y’all so much

I've loves that I invested my time time 25 years ago to listen to my first less than jake song. As someone from the UK that meant going to HMV to the import section and picking up the track from there. God was it worthwhile you guys and the rest of the band are awesome! I've lived every gig I've gone to see you at. I never miss a UK tour and even did the virtual lock down gig! I love all of the old stuff and new stuff! I can't wait to take my kids to your gigs!

Jude my Son was conceived the night of less than jake show, the particular city was Lawrence Kansas, although I grew up in socal listening to LTJ from 16 on,,,,,I moved to the south and fell in love with a girl who I thought would love your guys live show. We stayed in a cheap motel with my bro and had sneaky sex that night, when she came up pregnant we both knew the night, she even let me name him jude ( not jake, but I tried) but it was an amazing night, I’ll show u a pic of him next time I catch u live, obviously your not gonna quit this ride we’re on. Jude passed away 2 years ago today and I miss him but I’m watching this acoustic set and loving it. Thank u less than Jake for 30 years of wild nights.
