But just imagine rolling up into Humphrey's by the Bay in those. The place would be yours.

I cried when I made these pants

"gonna wear em with some bad sneakers"

and your green earrings.

Man, those are really amazing.

Oh I missed this revive and posted in another SD thread cuz those are awesome

xxxpost And your spangled leather poncho.

I've been a bit obsessed with Kid Charlemagne listening to 'The Royal Scam' quite a bit. I really wonder what Owsley or the people in the Dead thought of the tune. I kinda wish there was like a 13 minute disco Dead version somewhere. Was that tie known about the tune from the start or more later on?

little more understated:

Hey now re: the NKOTB/Color Me Badd/Ce Ce Peniston font use on those "Deacon Blues" lyrics on the back--sorta makes that line seem Bart Simpson-esque

"Don't have a black cow, Dan"

ah yes a "rare" "limited edition" "vintage 1990s" shirt available in all sizes from small - 5xl, seems legit

Nineties design overused white space, so they got that right. But who would want to revisit?

Yeah certainly doesn't seem legit... but I still ordered it.

What happened to Don's leg?

Too much stomping on the avenue.

Combination of tropical drink and sub-par footwear did him in.

Ask his orthopedist, Dr. Wu

That was a nice message

what would Don 'n' Ghost of Glenn have said?

DON: It's no surprise there's an online cottage industry of Steely Dan merchandise, because their lawyers aren't as good as ours. However the very thought of lumping them--or us, for that matter--into some sort of Punk Rock iconography is laughable, and possibly illegal.

GLENN: As so vividly illustrated in "Hey Nineteen", the barely legal stuff is where it's at!

DON: Well, yeah.

The white boomer blues golf shirt is an idea whose time has come. Bonnamassa should go all in and do a full album of golf-themed blues songs.

Turn up the eagles the neighbors are listening

unrelated: i recently picked up You Gotta Walk It Like You Talk It... from the local record shop, just on a "wtf is this?" kinda standpoint. have only given it one listen but it's pretty fun to hear! the Dan-ness is legible in most of the tracks. one or two could, with some polish and added rockness, fit pretty nicely on Can't Buy A Thrill. i'm kinda surprised i'd never really registered its existence before.

There's a bit in a Steely Dan biography where they re-enact Fagen's cameo in that movie for a journalist or radio DJ, to illustrate its lameness. "Was that funny? Are you laughing?" asks Don.
