Dan, I was delighted to see the notice of your 'myspace' as I have admired your singing for a good few decades. Your days with 'The Flying Cloud' always bring 'Dunlavin Green' and (I think) 'Tibby Dunbar' to mind. (Love the pic you've provided from to album cover --- DiMarco still looks frozen to the skin.) My best memory of you is your singing of 'Lord Gregory' on Andy O'Brien's wedding day many years ago. Your version that day was impeccable in delivery and beautifully phrased. I never got to hear you at The Eagle, but I thought of you each time I had the chance to go in there - whether it was a hot summer's night of Micho Russell - or a night of young teenagers like the Mangans strutting out there stuff for the first time. I always heard that The Eagle scene existed mainly due to your efforts and to your vision. I find the songs on your myspace to be crisp and interesting and tasteful and --- well --- everything that you would expect from Dan Milner. Here's a blue clicky: Dan Milner's Myspace All the Best, Danny
