Last year's Steely Dan tour, the first without Becker, was something like my tenth time seeing them live (I've lost count). I hate to say something negative about the departed, but the show was actually better with Jon Herrington taking all the guitar solos instead splitting them with the writer.

If any of you are SD fans and have not seen them live--DO IT! They are an awesome 10 person ensemble that has been together for over a decade and plays at least as well as the crew Becker and Fagen led in the 70s. In addition to Fagen and Herrington, their drummer Keith Carlock and their horn section are the best you'll see at any rock show.

There is still gas in the car...
Saw the same show last summer and I agree...it was awesome!
