You would have loved the show. . . a good variety of old stuff and new. McDonald's band was great and he played the shit out of the piano during his set. Came out for about the last thirty minutes of Steely Dan's set and sat in. So much talent on the stage, it boggled the mind! Fagen was in a wild mood and really gave a great performance in his own wierd, hip way. Gonna see Jamie Cullum in Dallas in October. Ought to be great. By the way, I'm really diggin a new album I ordered from a great old San Francisco band I'll bet you're familiar with.... The Sons of Champlin. It really kicks ass--Hip Lil Dreams. Have you been giggin? Drop me a line mate. Phil

It's a jerk knee reaction. I can't count the number of times people yelled out their favorite rock band while we were trying to do one of our original tunes live. . . usually with a little jazz flavor. I remember one note that was passed to the band that said," Enough of the outer space crap! Play some real music." Outer space crap was a running joke in the bank from then on. Chow!!
