About This Blog


Thanks for stopping by the blog
of singer/songwriter Dan Coyle;
I'll keep this little gem up to date
while on the road, writing,
recording,
and meeting my fans
at shows.
This may give you some
insight
into just how weird I can be -
and
all of the weird things I enjoy.
There will be stories, poems,
rants,
musings, and other forms of
writing
that my feeble vocabulary
cannot contend with. 

Hope you
enjoy!

Start 2012 With A B-A-N-G!
So I guess this title is slightly misleading; though not on purpose. On this first day of this new year, I was thinking about my last two shows in Europe on December 21 and 23. It was really the perfect way to end a year-long tour.

I'm going to share two videos with you: the first is from my December 21st show in Rome. I played with some amazing local artists who have a band called 2Hurt. Their front man Paolo and violin player Laura, asked if they could play with me on "I Adore You". I wish the sound of the video did it justice, but I think you'll get the idea.



The second video is from my final show of 2011 on December 23rd in Pavia, Italy. After I was finished, the band that opened for me asked if they could hop up on stage and play a cover of "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" with me. Heck Yes!


This got me to thinking; whatever you do, start it with passion, see it through, and finish with a bang!

Happy 2012 everybody.
