an Air Force brat, Dan Wiley grew up in the NASA-Joshua tree desert (Mojave), next to the Alamo in a Catholic school in San Anton', and on a coral island in Japan called Okinawa. Went to college in Durham, North Carolina, and discovered his muse at that time, at the expense of his grades...more often he'd be at a concert than the library, or in the woods, or the rock and roll coffee shop on campus. He played his first show in the Duke Battle of the Bands. finished school in Florida, in the panhandle, his de facto home for 8 years, a time filled with musical collaborations and activity. he was part of the scene here, bringing shows to Fort Walton and surrounding areas. he's in Northern Virginia right now, touring, recording, and going to shows. D. says, "Here are some of my songs, I hope you like them."

As you may or may not already know, in January of 2009, I am embarking on a two month tour with a friend, Al, of the project My Cell Phone Is Better Than Your Cell Phone (http://www. myspace. com/mycellphoneisbetter). This tour will span the entire length of the United States. We are travelling by Greyhound busline. It will begin January 8th in New York and end March 3rd in Michigan. I was going to wait until the entire schedule was completely done, but as people have been procrastinating, I figured now is as good a time as any. The majority of these shows are free, but as we do not have complete control over such things all of the time, specific shows are charged at the door, though they are very few. Regardless, any donations along the way are more than appreciated, as we are doing this completely independently and out of our pockets. We will be busking at various points on the tour, recording all over the place, and have many things for purchase, to help us eat along the way.
You can read much more detailed information, including that of merchandise and many other things, in this Blog.
Please check there, to see if we are coming to a city/state/theatre near you.
I apologise if you already full well know about this tour, or if you aren’t in the United States, as this is a mass comment. Come out to a show, have fun, mope around, get intoxicated and take off your clothes while running into a snow drift. Whatever floats your Winnebago. If you can’t come out to a show, make sure every person you know comes to a show. We might forgive you then. If not, expect a three AM house visit. Thank you.
