Yeah! He's done some acting too!

What I find even more interesting about the man is the way he lives his life, avoiding the Hollywood madness. Good for him.

There's another recent thread on this with some other interesting stuff. Check it out.

The first time I heard him play was about 10 years ago. On the last episode of the show Newsroom, he pulled out a guitar and performed How I Got to Memphis. Then the 2nd time was about a week ago on YT.

Yes he seems quite humble. Amazing he could go from playing a very serious role to his role in Dumb and Dumber.

Here's the other recent thread....not too far down.

The mention of him being humble is certainly an understatement. He spends a lot of time in his original hometown here in MI where he owns The Purple Rose Theater.

A friend of mine does Rev War re-enactments - and a few years back they were doing one near Chelsea where Jeff lives. My buddy was sitting at a picnic table when they were taking a break and next thing he knew there was Jeff -just sitting and chatting with everybody like one of the guys.
