Some folks are saying Ottawa was the first place they played Do It Again on this tour.
Mukhang tama ka diyan Chits - they didn't play Do It Again when I saw them at the Beacon (not sure about the four or five other shows they had there during the week), though I would have wanted to hear Jon or Walter's take on the classic Denny Dias guitar solo.
They had "Steady" Freddie Washington playing bass in his usual "no frills" style (just the low end, baby), and I kinda missed seeing the late great Cornelius Bumpus on sax. I saw Fagen (again at the Beacon) during the early 90s when he was on the "Rock and Soul Review" tour, and when I saw SD a few weeks back I was hoping against hope that Michael McDonald would be singing his signature "Pretzel Logic" line once again (asa pa, ultimong Pretzel Logic di nila kinanta).
Maybe it's just me but I found that Last Tango thing a bit out of place. The brass section played it like a funeral march (anong tawag niyan sa atin - Punebre?).
