• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Signature

"...The first year we played 12-13 nights in a row all over England with maybe a couple of days off, and then the same and that was that for a year. We had never had a holiday once. And that way you play to the people, you develop musically onstage, and you build a good, strong, honest following rather than hype..."

- Paul Kossoff
