Another great show. I'm glad I went to to this show after Rama Casino. It was made even more special when Dan performed "To the Morning". It is one of my favourites. A very positive song to the start of a day. Again, the band put on an excellent performance showing off their individual talent. It was the second time I had been to Meadowbrook and love the outdoor theatre. A very lively audience and it showed in how much fun Dan and the band had that evening. They came back for a second encore and it seemed like they didn't want to leave. Hope he decides to go out on the road next again year.~ Norma G. (Toronto, Canada)

The Meadowbrook show was excellent. The return of the band added to the experience. Dan did it right allowing the band to be involved in songs each band member had written or been involved with in another band. It gave the performance a uniqueness rarely found in any concert experience. I was one of the people who originally suggested he should do a solo acoustic tour. Each show has its place and while I believe Dan is at his best and the music is its most pure in a solo environment, this concert showed even the people who are not aware of his music what true musicianship and talent this man and the band he had at this show have. I attended with 3 other people who were less than enthusiastic going in, but believers going out. The set list was very good even though there were 3-4 songs that Dan has overdone in concert. I thought "Leader of the Band" stood out. The best part of the show however was the instrumental song which followed "Strange Way". I would like to know where that piece of music can be found in a recorded form because it was truly fantastic. Thanks ~ Glenn

Been a fan for many years, got the chance to see him last night . What a night. A true classical performance! The voice, writing, and his love for his father is so obvious. It was the night before Father's Day. Today, I went out and bought his first four albums. ~ Crush5150

I've seen a lot of shows in my 48 years, but few have demonstrated such
musicianship! Wow, what a performance! Thoroughly enjoyable! Thanks Dan, for 30 years of GREAT music! You're not getting older, you're getting BETTER! ~ Gary Ziegler

I was pleased to finally see him with a band again. However, I wish Dan would perform more of the "other " songs in his vast collection. Although I am a die-hard fan of all of his music, I think it is time he put rest some of the old standards. There are so many songs he does not perform that I think he should. Having said that, i was thrilled at his performance. As usual, Dan gave 110% to his performance, and his band was excellent in backing Dan up on all of his songs,with an added treat from Joe Vitale (drummer) playing flute, and performing one on of "his" tunes. T-shirt price could be a little cheaper though. $30.00 for a concert "T's" are a little outrageous,especially when the shirt is made in Mexico. I would not feel so bad about the cost if the shirt was made in the U.S.A. Hope Dan can schedule a performance in Toledo Ohio in the near future! ~ Jim Marshall
