   Studio vs live

   Hey guys,   
      
   Since we look like we need a new subject of discussion, here's one:   
      
   Steely Dan is coming for 2 concerts in July, in Montreal, Canada for the   
   first time in 35 years (it's about time if you ask me !) and, of course,   
   I'll be there...   
      
   I always loved the band and all and I've seen a lot of live shows bits on   
   YouTube and somehow, it always seemed a bit under what I expected as far as   
   live performance was concerned; Don's voice not being there totally,   
   Walter's solos a bit lazy, you know... like the whole operation was not up   
   to par (par being the studio version of the songs)... Now I'm a musician and   
   a singer myself so I know that studio and live can be worlds apart but...   
   it's to the point where I don't want to build my hopes up too high and be   
   deceived so, should I lower my expectations and if yes, how much "under"   
   should I get ready to hear ?   
      
   Thanks,
