   I’ve seen the band four times now (last time in Brussels) and I have to   
   agree with Hans. The show was fantastic. Like Donald said at the   
   beginning of the evening, it was a walk through Steely Dan history.   
      
   Although only a few songs of the latest albums where played, I was very   
   pleased with the refreshing rearrangements (see set-list Hans) of some   
   of the "oldies". The band's performance (especially Keith Carlock and   
   Jon Herington) whas outstanding. To me it felt like the band (again) has   
   grown and they're getting better every time I see them.   
      
   The crowd  was incredible, sometime singing along, and yes I had a great   
   evening. So thank y’all for a wonderful time! For now.... until the next   
   tour, I’ll be there for sure!
