This is a special request by www.youtube.com Maria, thank you for your fan and friendship! Message to Dan Fans from Mariaglenn: ~It was the summer of 1973, a free concert at the auditorium had brought out a rather large crowd to see a new young talent, the Louisiana university had been abuzz with different ones asking if I was going to see Dan Fogelberg... The lights dimmed, applause filled the room, and a young man walked out on stage, with a rather shy look he said "Good Evening", sat down at the piano, and flipped his long hair behind his shoulders, taking a quick glance to the side, the soft opening refrains of "To The Morning" rose on the quiet air.....to me, it felt like the world went frozen, and the room seemed filled with a mystical air...this was not my normal reaction to a concert...and I felt other worldly. After thunderous applause, he quickly followed with another tune...my ears heard... "I was raised by a river, rolling past a town, given no direction, just told to keep my head down, and I took my position, a man fired a gun, I was so steeped in tradition, I could not run"..... and this is how a girl nicknamed River...born at the opposite end of a very long river, began her journey with a man who wrote the music of her life..... I never was able to explain to others, what happened for 34 years, the visions, the dreams, the unreal concerts, the whole mystic of it all, brought me to the conclusion, that Dan actually did walk, "The Spirit Trail"...his visits <b>...</b> |
