EVENT WEBSITE

Two baby boomers from the Greater New York Metropolitan Area, Donald Fagen (keyboards/vocals) and Walter Becker (guitar/bass), met as students at Bard College in 1967. Realizing that they liked a lot of the same things - jazz, r&b, comic novels, science fiction - they began composing songs together on an upright piano in the common room of Walter's dorm. They played in various pickup bands at school and on recording sessions for classmate Terence (Boona) Boylan (Alias Boona {1969}).
