I'm grateful enough to say I was able to personally thank and just share my admiration for such an individual. It's moments like this that you seem to question and reflect on your own life.

3 years ago my friend sent me a link to an art community that appreciated and welcomed collaborative arts. I owe a lot of my motivation, self-confidence, and personal success to HitRECord. I had the chance to personally thank Dan for the sibling power him and Joe had to take on such a strong beautiful force. If there is one thing I came home from Sundance with was that Dan loved and believed in this place to the fucking fullest. The way he spent hours with curious strangers to answer any questions they had and to explain our concepts and motives.

My thoughts, support, and love goes out to you Joe and the rest of the family and crew.

It's a bittersweet time for us artists. Although a piece of me hurts, I can't help but to feel alive. Today I am alive, aware, inspired.

Just as I am now and now and now and now.

May BurningDan live on in every victory ice cream bowl we serve ourselves throughout our lifetime and infinity.
