Steely Dan's Donald Fagen Halts Tour Due to Illness

[RTA6226]

This is distressing! Perhaps Don needs to take time out, grieve Walt's passing and regroup. He has suffered a huge loss. I hope he takes good care of himself before going back on the road.

I sure hope that Donald Fagen takes some time off to make a full recovery before continuing to tour. Thanks for the news RTA.

Hi All:

Here's some good news about Don. Looks like he's back on the road. In another article people are saying he's still really jamming in his shows. One person saw them in Tulsa, Oklahoma last Thursday. He said Don seemed a little bit down, but was still able to perform one hell of a show. It's just been over a month since Walt's passing. It'll take time. I would imagine performing is cathartic for him. You have to put this link in your browser.
