Jackie,
Don't get me wrong, I never once said that anyone should
"give up" on the official Leo site, and I never would.
That's why I make the statement on the news page of my
own Leo site, "***Please always check leosayer.com first
for news.***" I do remember that Leo is very busy, and as
Tina pointed out, who isn't? I am also fairly sure he is
not the one who sits at the computer and personally updates
the website. I feel it might be the management's job to
make sure a list of touring dates gets to the folks who
update the site, and it is a shame that tour dates are
mostly not available. I think I do remember there was a
tour list once on his site, but I remember more times
that shows have come and gone with no mention of them.
Wouldn't more folks know about the shows if they were able
to go to the most logical place to find out about them?
I must agree with Tina on this issue, especially.
Tina, I wonder if anything would happen if you click on the e-mail
link for Leo's management from his website and asked them directly?
Just a thought.
