A Life Lesson From A Rock Legend
Little Stages Lead To Big Stages
"Duane thank you for spending a magical week in Delta County speaking and inspiring our students, teachers and parents. The Cocker Kids Foundation is very grateful for your message. Kids need life tools, direction and hope. You brought those to our community. Pam and I enjoyed our dinner with you. Keep inspiring lives on stages around the world. Remember little stages lead to big stages."
Joe Cocker
Singer and Rock Legend
Not Your Average Joe
One my of the top speaking moments was getting a call from Pam Cocker in 1999. Her team invited me to do a week of speaking events in Crawford, Colorado. When Pam called she never mentioned her husband. It was a surreal moment to have dinner and play snooker with Joe Cocker.
I have never met a superstar that was so humble. One of the highlights was talking to Joe about his gigs. "Duane I still like to perform in Europe. Last summer I did a little concert with a few of my friends."
YouTube was not invented until 2005. Years later I stumbled across a video of Joe performing in Italy. Joe was right. He was just doing a gig with one of his friends and 20,000 people.

Soaring Over The Top
Duane's first book came to fruition on his 100 mile trek of Torre Del Paine, Chile for New Years 2000.
