Can't imagine Georgetown without hearing the song "My Old School". RIP

Can't imagine Georgetown without hearing the song "My Old School". RIP And at W&M, even more so.

I couldn't believe this news. I attended Classic West this year. Becker wasn't there. Fagen announced that he had recently taken ill, and I didn't make much of it. The band still sounded great (and I filmed My Old School for my wife, who loves that song), even though I felt a bit as though I had seen Steely without Dan. The Larry David look alike (Larry Carlton) did a great job on lead guitar.

Steely Dan was a major part of the soundtrack of my freshman year on the Hilltop. Just another reminder that I am getting old.

My son is a sophomore at Bard College Now "California tumbles into the sea/ That will be the day I go back to Anandale" makes great sense.
