He wrote, "Well... here's the next batch of what I want to point out. MUSIC - we need it, man, & all our musicians are having a hell of a a time makin' a living these days w/ the COVID deal - No venues, can't play anywhere."

Jeff also posted important charities he supports and encouraged fans to support also like No Kid Hungry. "The health of our children can serve as a compass, letting us know if we're on course or not - we're OFF COURSE - Especially during the COVID deal."
