Thin Green Line

Music is not a hobby for Jamie Lee Thurston. It's the only thing. The act of performing music is how he enters and relates to the world. And when you watch him live, it's as if you're witnessing a red giant of a star form before you, drawing in all of the stardust and matter of the immediate universe to power its very being…even if only for a fraction of time. It stands to reason that all music is good music as long as it finds its way to the one person who enjoys it.  To Get the Video Version of this Podcast Please Visit Us Here: https://www.patreon.com/wwtglpodcasts
