Crystal Lake was a staple in college

"Dan was a good friend in college - always a fixture at parties and get togethers with his mezmerizing guitar playing. I still live in the Boston area, but strangely didn't know of his CD until I stumbled across it at Amoeba Records in San Francisco. I remember Dan introducing me to the song Changes by Black Sabbath one day, and we had interesting musical discussions ranging from Third Bass' second album being remarkably good to the validity of punk band Curious George's cover of Wish You Were Here. I miss hearing Dan play, so this album was a great score. I hope one day his masterful song Crystal Lake gets put onto a CD. Cheers Dan - great music as always and I hope to hear more soon. I still need to track down that Tupac tribute album!"

Dan Rockett ran my husband over with his car in 1998

"My husband was in an accident on his bike when we lived in Boston. He got hit by a car driven by Dan Rockett, and ended up with a few broken ribs and some cuts and scrapes. Dan was very cool about it, and replaced my husband's bike, yadda yadda yadda.



Over the course of settling everything from the accident he gave us a CD of his band, The Rockett Band. We loved the CD, and to this day it still finds its way into the CD player.



I heard Dan Rockett's solo song "Driving Home" on Pandora while I was at work today, and had to laugh as I remembered our introduction to Dan, as I haven't thought about all that in a long time.



LOVE the solo stuff Dan. Watch out for those bicyclists. LOL."
