Thank you so much for the beautiful music you shared with us DAN PEEK. It will always be remembered up to the generations to come who knows how to appreciate good music. God bless you and the family you left behind.
I RECIVED A E-MAIL FROM DAN THE DAY BEFORE HE DIED... HE WAS SO THOUGHTFUL... GAVE ME THE WILL TO LIVE AGAIN.... GAVE ME THE WILL TO LIVE AND THE NEXT DAY HE WAS GONE.........BLESSING ON YOU BROTHER DAN..........
We'll miss you Dan. But see you on the other side, dear brother. Thank you for the music. Thank you for living that changed life, showing it can be done. Love and blessings to your family.
From Sistergoldenhair and the lonely people: Great Spirit who binds us all together, you hold him in your light, while we miss the light that illuminated his music. Bye for now, Dan - see you later.
"This is for all you lonely people thinkin that life has passed you by. Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup and ride that highway in the sky..." He's on his way back home.
Farewell Dan, you were and integral part of the soundtrack to my life, and oft times remind me of so many of the most memorable times in my life, with your songs playing at that very moment. each time I hear them, I smile.
Your music meant so much to me in the still of the night when all those teenage fears seemed so overwhelming...got me through alot..god bless you Dan...
In the wonderful arms of Jesus, and enjoying the heavenly music above! Sweet music that hopefully many will get to hear, experience and dwell in for eternity!
RIP Dan........brainwashing? LOL.....always the pot calling the kettle black.....I've got eternity to have jam session with Dan.....the music lives on...
RIP dear Dan... You were a great, sensible and gifted artist, and a wonderful person, I'm sure. Thank you for all the music you gave to the world... we will miss you so much...
Here's another vote for an America reunion. It would be fun, and there's no good reason it couldn't be a positive thing. They laid down some sweet sounds.
I saw an interview with Dan Peek where he basically said right off the bat he just went all in for the drugs, booze, women, etc. and woke up one day and thought he needed some perspective. He already had made a small fortune. Gerry and Dewey were more level-headed, but they were all still friends and even helped Dan with his first Christian albums. Hopefully, they will reunite if even for a one-off tour.
Also its really Gerry preventing a reunion. Dan wrote somethings in his book that i'm sure he regrets. buy whats done is done hopefully they'll let bygones be bygones and reunite before its too late I'm sure the Beatles wished they had prior to Lennons untimely death you never know what tommorow brings.
104Bosco I totally agree they should reunite. I just attended my 53rd America show although they put on a great show its become so predictable even down to the banter in between songs. I feel a reunion with Dan would be refreshing and maybe even generate some new tunes. Also if the rock n roll hall of SHAME ever wakes up and inducts them into the h.o.f. it'd be interesting to see if Gerry would welcome Dan for the ceromoney. I too was in an America tribute band and we had some play Dan
I think that Gerry and Dewey know what is best for the band after all this time without Dan p......Dan was in and decided to bail ...,somethings are just better left as they are, but it would be cool to have them all play just once together : )
Doesn't he think he's got his shit together by now to rejoin America. I am a christian but don't sit around the house all day and read the bible. I keep god in my heart and in everything I do. I know some people that would love to see him back with the group.We need more christian's in pop groups because in christian music you are only reaching people that are already saved.
@wheelinthesky300 Well that Sucks!! Maybe in the future lets hope. I for one love America to Death .Maybe the 40th?? { or is it already too late for that ]I'd love to see the three of them on stage together once before I go to the big rock concert In the sky.
It would be nice if he was with them. They all had great voices but Dan gave us this awesome song of hope. You'd be surprised how many people out there need to hear it.
he is great, I just wish he would get back together with Dewey and Gerry one more time. give us one more america album or tour or both with all three original members.
It seems like all the members of America have beautiful voices. I used to think it was one guy singing, nope, they all are outrageously talented. And they're all cutie-pies too.
It would be nice if Dan would make some live performances. It wouldn't have to be a grueling 9 month tour, but just a few limited engagements. I think he would be pleasantly surprised to find they'd all sell out!

TheJetfighter666 1 year ago
@TheJetfighter666 An America reunion makes a lot of sense.
The 3 of them together have a chemistry that no 2 of them have with eachother,
and that we haven't seen since 1977.
It wouldn't be just a money tour, like The Eagles.
There is unfinished business with America,
still lots of tunes and harmonies to mine.
They ought to record an album first.
Remember, Dan is fabulously talented, I bet he has a lot of music pent up in him.
