His idea quickly grew into a grass-roots fundraiser for a worthwhile cause.   The Bluegrass Legacy reported that "Lee has lost his mind, ...but in a good way".   

Lee promised that if enough people clicked the “LIKE” button on his page he would Buzz-Cut a Banjo outline into the back of his head and to make it even more interesting, he also promised to make a sizeable donation to his favorite charity; St Jude’s Research Hospital for Children.

Lee is making good on his promise and the first 100 CD  Sales will generate $1,000 for the cause.
