Home at Last

Some young Irish guy took his cameraphone along to his front-row seats at the Steely Dan Show and brought back footage. The sound's a little off, but the sight of Mr. Fagen crouched, grinning, over his Fender Rhodes, with his Ray Charles specs, seriously askew hair, and scraggly white goatee makes me smile. Not captured on cameraphone: Sir Paul and David Gilmour, only a few rows back from the stage.

A surplus of SD-themed bonanzas oozing through the interwebs' pipes at the moment, including surplus close-up footage from the same date, and an entire 2003 concert, shot on an in-house camera, complete with lap dissolves and soundboard-quality music (I linked to this concert's instrumental opener, Art Blakey's Cubano Chant, last week. Lots more since then, including Godwhacker, The Caves of Altamira, and the Walter Becker-sung Slang of Ages).
