I'm considering going to the 8/25 gig @ Nokia. Can't wait! | |

Cool. Wonder if Don will mix any "new breeds" in the set. Steely Dan's able to always improvise different arrangements into their classics, and I feel that a portion of the show visitors are openminded enough as well, in order to hear some extra slinky things. Funny, around the era of "The Nightfly", Donald explained during an interview that he was not really into repeating tracks again and again on stage, as the songs had already been performed perfectly in the studio anyway. I guess he grew out of that viewpoint, as him, Walter and all the excellent tour musicians have been sharing great shows through the decades at many places. I'd like to experience just one show with all sorta of never,- or not-often-performed songs from the group and from Donald's solo work.

I've been waiting for the opportunity to see Steely Dan outside, because the sound is so much clearer than in a theatre or arena, where you get an acoustical mess with such a big band playing intricate arrangements.
Go to the outside gig, where the sound can disipate cleanly and easily, it'll be great! Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss... | |

- Hey, thanks theAudience! Sounds great and cool indeed that they add new work. I think the lady singer in the middle is Cindy Mizelle from the 80s groups Attitude (The System production), Lemelle (female duo) and a number of appearances for other artists. The lady on the left (her name skips me) is related to another bandmember of Steely Dan and the one on the far right is a new face to me. | |

There's actually quite a few songs from the Gaucho sessions that didn't make the final cut: http://prince.org/msg/8/380457 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |
