September 4th Marked Dan's 23rd Birthday!!
(September 4, 2003) Fans around the world celebrated Dan’s 23rd birthday
on September 4th. We celebrate Dan’s many wonderful talents and fine
qualities that have given countless fans great joy and memorable moments.
Dan’s energetic performances and strong, yet sweet and soulful voice
has roused enthusiastic responses from crowds on O-Town’s R&B and
rock numbers, including the crowd favorite he wrote, "American Game,"
and then has moved audiences to tears during his touching performances of
O-Town’s ballads. Dan has also earned the fans’ respect through
his humility and serious work ethic. Many think of him as “the responsible
one.” He is credited for strengthening O-Town through his supportive
leadership style and reliability. He is known for his quiet and low-key lifestyle,
yet fans have come to love his displays of the fun side of his personality
including his fun collection of vintage T-shirts and the wildly comical comments
he interjects into interviews and offers during conversations. Last but not
least, we celebrate this polite and friendly man who
has given many fans wonderful moments at meet & greets or chance encounters.
Usually the first to greet fans at meet and greets, he has put countless fans
at ease by offering them a friendly smile, a warm greeting and friendly small
talk. We wish Dan a safe, happy, healthy and prosperous new year filled with
great times with good friends, family and loved ones and the contentment that
comes from dreams realized.
