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!

Groningen does have a University and a red light district, but that’s
about the only thing of man-made significance out here.  There are
trees, fields, goats, horses, lambs, pigs, cows, alfalfa, and so-on,

We came here to get out of the city for a few weeks, and I wanted
to finish up songs for the new album, so they would be ready to

while being here.  The people were very
