Please don't look too deeply into Dan's eyes; you may never find your way out of them. A Marine Veteran and emerging fashion icon, Dan is also a legend in the Paris underground hurdygurdy scene and may or may not be the world's 12th leading authority on Blade Runner. Dan smells like the ocean breeze and has a singing voice that tastes like your grandmother's pancakes. A noted bon vivant and man about town, Dan disputes anyone who claims Liam wrote this bio for him. This is entirely Dan's work, and was NOT written by Liam.
