Oh my God, what a show!! I had seen them in 2015 without Michael and they were great. But with him it's a whole different ballgame. Michael sounded so good I had tears rolling several times during his songs. And Bill Payne from Little Feat on keyboards. WOW!! I had a great location about 10 rows from stage and a respectful crowd around me. All I did was hard limit the applause following each song. The mix is always pristine at Toyota and tonight was no execption. I would put this in the top 10 of my all-time recordings. Don't be afraid to crank it up!!

The Band:

Michael McDonald - lead , backing vocals, piano, mandolin, accordion
Bill Payne – Keyboards, Vocals
John Cowan – Bass, Vocals
Tom Johnston – Vocals, Guitar
John McFee – Guitar, Strings, Vocals
Mark Quinones - percussion, vocals
Ed Toth - Drums
Marc Russo – Saxophone
Pat Simmons – Vocals, Guitar

As always, NEVER for sale, trade freely, don't distribute in lossy formats, and always support the artists' commercial endeavors.

Enjoy,

David
