To my fans

I’m writing to let you know what’s new in my life.

I am going through bankruptcy proceedings at the moment. I wanted to let you know personally. This is necessary for practical reasons to reorganize my life as I go through divorce and to restructure my finances.

Teri Coté has decided to move onto other artistic work and will no longer be playing with me. Teri is a very fine artist. She is an extremely talented musician, a tremendous drummer! All of us in the band love her and have enjoyed working with her. I wish her every success in her future endeavors.

Craig J and I will begin recording new material in April. We will be recording a few songs that I love and that he loves. One song will be Night & Day, a Cole Porter song.

Finally, I wanted to say that I love Beau and miss him as he now lives on the other side of the country. I am very proud of him as a person. Beau is a tremendous human being, a very caring person. I’m not just being a biased parent, many people tell me that.

Happy Trails,

DC

A message from David

When David was told of the campaign, organised by a number of fans from around the world, to have him inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, he said:

Thank you, I appreciate your love and support for me.

They’ll NEVER let me into the R&R Hall of Fame. I’m too pop. So many TRULY GREAT pop artists will never be in. I’ve never cared about awards. It’s more gratifying to me that my fans love what I do.

On another note, my band and I have had an amazing time being daring and doing unusual materials that we’ve not ever done before. I think I’m going to continue to push the envelope a little more in my next few shows. We shall see.

A message from David

To my fans,

I’m not retiring at the moment, but I will decide later next year as a result of the physical problems that have been plaguing me over the past decade. I have arthritis and I love to play, but I’ve been doing this from the end of 1970!!

In January I’m playing many of my favorite places here on the east coast. I don’t know how many concerts will follow, if at all in 2015. I want to send my sincere love and thanks for all of your love for me over the past 44 years. It’s meant so very much to me.

I wish for everyone, the best Christmas, with love and happiness to everyone. I have always tried to give love and light to people everywhere. I feel it’s an honor and a blessing. My love goes out to all, and I hope you and your loved ones have a truly safe and happy New Year.

Happy trails to you, from me to all of you.

God Bless.

Thank you to the greatest fans in the world

My birthday was awesome! Thank you to the greatest fans in the world by far! Your messages to me were beautiful. I love you all so much and your support has meant so much to me at this time.

I am doing incredibly well in my sobriety and I am looking forward to doing community services all over the US as well as speaking to many others who struggle with the same disease as I do.

I wish everyone love, peace and happiness this coming holiday and for the rest of 2014.
Happy Trails,

David.
