Message From Dan
(July 17, 2004) Hey Inside O-Towners...it's Dan.
Sorry it's been so long since I've caught up with you, but you guys know I've always been pretty quiet offstage...lol. Anyway...Wuz up guys? Even though I haven't posted in awhile, I still check out the website frequently.

So...what's going on with me? I write music every day...and when I get done...I write some more...and when I get done with that I take a break and watch Trading Spaces (THAT'S RIGHT, I'M NOT AFRAID TO ADMIT IT).....lol. I've been working hard and at the same time laying low. The wedding planning takes up a majority of our free time here, but so far everything is right on schedule and we are very excited to get on with it. Getting married is an easy process when you're getting married to someone that you're completely in love with, which Erin and I are.

Moving on...I went home for 4th of July weekend where my Dad and brother Adam (the best man) threw me a bachelor party. If you guys learned anything from Making the Band...I'M BORING...So trust me it was pretty tame. All my buddies jumped in a bus and we gambled the night away in Niagara Falls. And let me tell you something...I know I've been labeled "the luckiest man alive" (I won a little money)…But every time I go to a casino with Trevor, HE ENDS UP WALKING OUT WITH POCKETS FULL...So really, who's the lucky one...really?

In between wedding planning, without really pushing things, a couple songs I've co-written have made it on the Natural album in Germany and on a guy from Canada's CD. His name is Shawn Desman. His comes out soon…so be on the lookout for that. So that's a sign of things to come. I appreciate the continued support, and stay on the lookout for my name underneath some songs in Billboard. All righty dudes...Thank you so much for all the love. Love, Dan
