November 19, 2007 The LeeVees in 2007!
Hey LeeVites,
The air is getting cooler and the sun is setting earlier as we enter the cold, lonely months of winter. But don't fear--we're also approaching The LeeVees season! Like big fuzzy bears coming out of hibernation, we LeeVees are gearing up to bring you a short and sweet tour of Channukkahh rock.
We begin in CT, head out to the Midwest and eventually end it all including a super special performance at Symphony Hall with THE BOSTON POPS! We have some new non chhhannukkkah songs like "Karpas" and "Hebrew School Drop Out" that you will hopefully hear when you come to see us live. As always, our cds are still available at www.theleevees.com and are up on itunes--the perfect Hanukah gift! We have some new stickers up on the site that are priced nicely -- especially the congregation discount (25 stickers for $6).
Come say hi and touch Shawn LeeVee's hair:

October 03, 2006 The LeeVees in 2006!
Hey team LeeVee,
Shana Tova to all of our jewish friends and to our non jewish friends, we're sorry if you had to work on Monday. The high holidays are over and that can only mean two things: plenty of leftover brisket and Chanukah is right around the corner. Ahhhhh, Chanukah. 7 kinda lame gifts, 1 great gift and the best gift of all, THE LEEVEES! We are back with some great new stuff that will be happening very soon:
+ A new iTunes exclusive EP featuring a brand new song titled "Jewish Stars," 2 rare acoustic recordings, and the classic "How Do You Spell Chanukah."
+ Hanukkah Ring Tones!! Two completely whacky original songs written specifically to annoy your friends, as well as a new twist on ye olde classic, "Dreidel dreidel dreidel."
+ A bunch of holiday tour dates that will be hitting the website soon (Maimi, Bridgeport,CT, NYC, Boston, Los Angeles and more)
+ The Kosher Food Shooting Gallery Video Game-- Shoot matzo balls at lobsters and cheeseburgers but avoid the Kosher foods, or you'll lose points!
+ A new Holiday E-card - our new friends at Babaganewz.com and the LeeVees are joining forces to make a fun new ecard.
So tell your friends and neighbours to be on the lookout for the coolest band since sliced rye bread...
