Don't know much about the back stories of rock.I figured out,only fairly recently,that "And Your Bird Can Sing" was about Jagger and his "bird",Marianne and I read once that the "sweet,sweet Connie" in "We're An American Band" was a real rock groupie who did certain "favors" for rock groups.
My kids (10 & 12) heard a few Dan songs in the family car they really liked and asked about the band... I told them how they chose their name!
