Steely Dan concert in St. Louis







Wonderful concert, though I still like the one at the NY State Fair grounds I went to a few years ago. The acoustics in the Fabulous Fox theatre were not good for vocals. Donald had to strain to sing and be heard above the music.
Our seats were great - row G in vip section 5. We were close up and personal.

Larry English



Larry has been in Sweden for the last 10 days.



Here's a photo he shot last night.

David Porter



I spoke with Dave Porter last week. You would never know that we had not spoken for 45 years. We just had a normal conversation as if we had spoken continuously through out the years. Dave always had a quick wit and a very good memory. He's still very involved with music and a dog he likes to photograph.
