Last weekend a big group of us rented a van and headed to Atlantic City… for a Steely Dan concert at the Trump Taj Mahal. It was appropriately dubbed “The Smoothest Concert Tour Ever”.
Matt captained the glorious diesel beast that delivered us safely to our rooms at the Irish Pub Inn.

Ms. Becca Greene, above right, was responsible for booking the most wonderfully insane hotel available in AC.
Leprechauns and gilt wallpaper, all within minutes of the boardwalk and the Taj Mahal… what more could a bunch of wig-wearing Steely Dan fans wish for?

70’s-style Matt.
Needless to say, amid the usual Steely Dan crowd we received quite a few looks… as well as an invite to a penthouse party at the House of Blues (we were flattered but did not attend).

No static at all…

Allison, me, Doug, Noah, Ben and Sans… hanging at the Irish Pub Inn post-concert. We had made a pitt stop at the Borgata afterwards (a few other members of the Smoothest Concert Tour Ever were staying there), and Doug and I accidentally made $320 at the .25 slots, which equals a nearly free trip. Woohoo What a fun time!
