Message: [QUOTE="JordyG, post: 3520625, member: 6819"] My Steely Dan story. When they first came out with "Can't Buy A Thrill" and had "Do It Again all over the radio we here in Brooklyn got wind that they were going to play in Prospect Park. We were thrilled but skeptical, and on the day they were supposed to perform we showed up at the big band shell. We waited for a while, and then thought, maybe they meant the smaller band shell deeper into the park. Now we were highly suspicious, made our way into the park. We arrived and found, not on the stage area, but in front of it a band set up. After another 20 minute wait about 25 people showed to watch whoever was to perform. We were all standing in a semi-circle when out walked Steely Dan. Since they had only one album they played every song. On guitar was Walter Becker and Jeff "Skunk" Baxter. I remember them opening with "Reelin' In The Years" with me standing about 10 feet from Donald Fagen. I'll never forget. [/QUOTE]
