Dakota Dave Hull

Fargo native Dakota Dave Hull strummed his first guitar chord when he was about 10. He's still at it. After moving to the Twin Cities in the late '60s, he became a key player on the West Bank music scene. Now, with his infectious blend of jazz, ragtime, folk, blues, Western swing, and vintage pop, he entertains audiences coast to coast and beyond.

'Victory Rag'

Since touring has not been possible during the pandemic with most theaters shuttered, what has the pandemic looked like for you?
It’s been a very interesting year at my place. I haven’t been in one place for this length of time since I graduated from high school. 2020 was looking to be my busiest year ever until it wasn’t.

'The Way You Look Tonight'
How have you kept busy?
Gigs were dropping like flies and in April, taking a cue from others that were doing similar things, I started doing three tune mini-concerts every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning on Facebook (www.facebook.com/groups/ddhull/). That’s still happening. Saturday’s shows have evolved into “Guitar Day (the best day of the week!)” where in addition to the tunes I blab about guitar related stuff, anything from practice tips to caring for instruments to listening habits. I get quite a few suggestions for topics from members of the audience and it’s been a lot of fun. Mostly it’s keeping me engaged and interested even though the travel and the regular gigs are suspended.

Any plans for new music or have you been writing while at home?
I’d been planning on a live recording, something I’ve never done as a soloist, and naturally those  shows had to be postponed indefinitely. In June I decided I’d better get to work on a studio album so I’d have something to show for my time and something for the folks who supported the live project in advance. The album, “Six-Guns and Fountain Pens” came out a few weeks ago and is available on my website, www.dakotadavehull.com
-
'The Exttempore Rag'
What are you most looking forward to now that a sense of normalcy looks possible?
For now I’ll continue to do the virtual gigs, learn and compose new tunes every day, and remain cautiously optimistic about getting back to work in the near future. Better days ahead.

  • I am indeed very grateful to Dr. Odunga for his wonderful help and I promised to testify about his work for me. My name is Abbas Shafii, I am from Oregon USA and I am a Powerball winner of 328.5 Million Dollars and this is all thanks to Dr. Odunga’s help in my life. I read about him in a testimony of Manuel Franco who he also helped to win the Powerball as well which made me contact him through his email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com then later spoke on whats-app. He told me about the process to get the jackpot numbers and I had to pay him for the work to be done. The day of the lottery he gave me the Powerball numbers without hesitation. I played the numbers that day and I felt a certain sense of feelings inside me which gave me hope. Three days later, I checked the lottery dashboard and saw that the numbers really matched with my ticket. I shouted with glee. I am happy giving this testimony and call everyone to contact Dr. Odunga today to win the lottery too. His email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and his Whats-app is +2348167159012

  • When most people hear the words “crypto recovery service, " their guard immediately goes up—and for good reason.

    In today’s online environment, finding a legitimate service feels like finding a needle in a haystack. Ask about trusted crypto recovery on any major forum—Reddit, Bitcointalk, or Twitter—and you’ll be met with immediate hostility. It has become a cultural bias: victims often prefer to file police reports (which rarely yield results) rather than seek private help, fearing that speaking openly will only attract more scammers.

    But here is the harsh truth: Silence doesn’t bring your funds back.

    The reality of the crypto landscape is brutal. Less than 10% of “recovery agencies” online are genuine. Fraudsters have mastered the art of mimicking trust, preying on the desperate and the skeptical alike. So, how do you separate the wolves from the professionals?

    The Golden Rule: No Upfront Fees

    If there is one single sign that separates a scam from a legitimate operation, it is the payment model.

    The Red Flag: Upfront Demands

    Predatory scams will always demand money before they lift a finger. They will invent reasons such as:
    "Processing fees.
    "Software license costs
    "Tax payments or legal retainers

    If an agency asks you to pay before they recover your assets, walk away. This is not a service; it is a secondary scam designed to bleed you dry after your initial loss.

    The Green Flag: Success-Based Fees

    A genuine agency knows its value lies in results, not promises. We operate on a transparent, success-based fee structure—typically around 10% of the recovered amount.

    Simply put: No recovery, no payment.

    We only eat when you do. This aligns our incentives entirely with yours. We don’t want your money upfront; we want to prove our competence by returning what is rightfully yours.

    Enter TechY Force Cyber Retrieval

    At TechY Force, we understand the skepticism. We’ve seen the forums. We know the stigma. That’s why we built our reputation on transparency, technical expertise, and a zero-risk model for our clients.

    We don’t ask for trust blindly; we earn it through action.

    How We Work

    1. Free Initial Consultation: We analyze your case without cost. If we can’t help, we tell you honestly.
    2. Investigation & Tracing: Our cyber-forensic team uses advanced blockchain analytics to trace stolen funds.
    3. Recovery Execution: We engage with exchanges, legal entities, and black-hat actors where necessary to secure your assets.
    4. Payment Upon Success: You only pay our agreed-upon percentage after the funds are securely returned to you.

    Breaking the Cycle of Fear

    The crypto industry was built on the idea of decentralization and personal sovereignty. But when things go wrong, isolation is your enemy. Scammers thrive in the shadows of your fear. Professionals thrive in the light of transparency.

    Don’t let the fear of secondary scams prevent you from seeking genuine help. Look for the golden rule. Look for the no-upfront-fee guarantee.

    Look for TechY Force Cyber Retrieval.

  • My name is Stacy, sharing this information on here isn’t easy for me to do, but I thought to my self it would definitely help someone avoid the pain and stress of getting a real hacker that can help solve a hacking need just like i needed a solution of recovering my lost money. I lost $553,000.00 to an online investment scam, and it’s something I never imagined could happen to me until i fell a victim of it. for months i paid different fake hackers to help but to no avail, i kept trying till i met a real one called hack recovery agency and so far i’ve recovered $92,030 back in almost 2 weeks i hope i get all of it back cos i’m drained from all this. if you know this information would help you in any way don’t hesitate to make good use of it. you can send an email to hack recovery agency @ g mail . com, you’d be amazed on the quick result and how they deliver it.
