Steely Dan at The Strand
I was really jealous that the Yacht Rock Schooner got to play a Steely Dan tribute at The Strand in Marietta, a mere 10-15 minutes from my house, so it was really cool that I was invited to be in the horn section (playing bari sax). Kudos to the band for doing such a good job, and particularly Jordan Shalhoup for dealing with the horn players (one of whom quit the gig during soundcheck!) and all the horn charts. He also nailed all the sax solos. Impressive work!
I really enjoyed being able to lay my bari in the case after the show and walk out the stage door. I never get out that quickly!
