Alan Doyle Helps Out A Young Fan...(34/365)

One of the reasons I love writing this blog is reading stories about fan's dreams coming true made possible by the generosity and kindness of the artists and musicians I am interested in and especially when they involve children and young people.

A young Alan Doyle and Great Big Sea fan decided he wanted to sing one of their songs Yankee Sailor for a local school talent quest song. His father contacted Alan via his official Twitter account who was only too happy to meet the young man, sing a couple of verses of some songs with him and have his photo taken with him. 


What a thrill for the young person and his family. Something the young fan and his family will remember for years.
