No Danny, I did not take your Trapper Keeper
The good old days when "No Danny" was as big as Jesus. Errr, I mean the Beatles... Yeah, that's right, the Beatles. Since I've made that bold statement some years ago, people have walked up to me and said "If you were as big as the Beatles, then how come you only sung cover songs and open up for other bands for free?" My only reply is that people truly do not understand the intricacies of being a touring band. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices to keep the fans happy and if that means that we have to struggle, then we struggle. But, it was all worth it and in the end we kept face and kept our noses clean. To those that haven't been backstage with a touring band, that means no drugs. And let me tell you, it was tough to stay clean with all those girls. If you look real close at the pictures, you can see them all huddled up against the stage just trying to get as close as they can to their favorite band.
