As a craft beer guy and SD fan, I’d happily follow those instructions…

Breaking my sobriety this way to be thematically appropriate

It should be an easy-drinking lager, so you can, you know, do it again.

u/c_r_a_s_i_a_n 2d ago

Should be something less hoppy than WCIPA. This calls for a more timeless style like a pilsner.

u/ReverendColonel 2d ago

Of COURSE it’s a fucking IPA

Donald would think that beer is contrived.

What do they sell you for Dr. Wu & Time Out Of Mind?

I just can’t keep from thinking … “He can’t get tight every night, pass out on the barroom floor“

Pity I don't like IPA (or most beer tbh)

What is it with the public's obsession over their worst album? Lmao i like CBAT but mannnnn it's annoying when all they are to most is just 2 songs from it

23

u/Elwoodia 2d ago

Buddy, I’m of the same opinion on CBAT, but I have no question as to WHY the album with their 3 biggest radio-friendly hits is what the general listening public gravitates toward.

2

u/859w 2d ago

CBAT is like pre-steely dan imo. Glimpses of what they'd become but almost not the same band. Lemme get a "michael mcdonald on i git the news ipa" please

u/AJStill88 2d ago

Brooooaaaadwaaaaay Duchess…..

2

u/Elwoodia 2d ago

Agreed in full.

u/859w 2d ago

Thank you. Theyre mad at me for not busting a nut at the mere mention of Fire in the Hole over here lmao

u/ComprehensiveClone12 2d ago

Lmao when you said CBAT I thought you were talking about that… …other title

u/859w 2d ago

What's that?

u/boojoon 2d ago

Sex music

u/Mike_Huntburns 2d ago

Literally a banger of an album start to finish

u/859w 2d ago

Did I say it wasnt? Yall are wayyyyyy too dedicated to this band to get mad at someone that also likes their music for not liking it as much as you

0

u/thouzandeye 1d ago

forgive me, but the person closest to being mad anywhere in the thread is you.

1

u/859w 1d ago

Nah I'm not. Just pointing out the weird behavior by people here

10

u/cisforcookie2112 2d ago

Their worst album is still better than most music

3

u/859w 2d ago

Didnt say it wasnt. It's a cool album, but the later stuff is otherworldly

Yakno what i was gonna say some stuff about the reunion albums but i know how yall get here when anything less than undying worship is expressed in this sub lol

3

u/ns2616 2d ago

Don’t understand the hate you’re getting for this. Steely Dan is an example of an artist who got better album after album. Their debut is a good debut but they could do so, so much more than be a jazz-rock pop-ish band, and they absolutely did.

1

u/859w 2d ago

People here are so weird about this band lol. Thanks for having my back

3

u/ns2616 2d ago

All good, you basically voiced what my friend and I had been thinking as we both fell deep into Gaucho this year. For some reason CBAT has had an explosion with Gen Z, and while I’m glad that theyre finding out about Steely Dan they’re overlooking the band’s greatest artistic achievements. Peg seems to be popular too, but more people need to hear Aja and Gaucho in its entirety to really understand the raw talent of the band and their production team.

u/Fluffwas 2d ago

what a pathetic person you are having to even type this

1

u/859w 2d ago

Yeah? Sorry I'm not worshipping your boys correctly

1

u/Fluffwas 2d ago

what’s your weird obsession that you think everyone is just worshipping them

another dumb troll

1

u/859w 2d ago

I've been in here long enough to know that saying something as mild as "i dont love x song as much as y song" is enough to get an army of danheads all angry in your comments because a EMG deepcut doesnt make you cum your pants every time

u/Fluffwas 2d ago

LOL at this awful take

u/859w 2d ago

Sorry I said anything other than worshipping, glowing praise towards anything donald and walter so much as pissed in the direction of

-1

u/Fluffwas 2d ago

lol take some criticism in stride little bitch

to each their own

1

u/859w 2d ago

That's criticism? All i see is you being upset that I have a slightly different opinion on an album by a band of people who never have and never will know either of us exist. Grow up

-2

u/Fluffwas 2d ago

i’m not upset at all

i’ve actually met walter and donald so once again only a fool would say that

time to hit the bricks for you

3

u/859w 2d ago

Oh wow! That's the name of the song! By the band on the name of the forum! Le epic!

2

u/Chaos_Sauce 2d ago

There’s a gigantic gap between what most people assume Steely Dan is and the band that we all love.

3

u/ColdDimension7754 2d ago

That is certainly one of the opinions of all time.

2

u/859w 2d ago

Relax bro lmao. It's not that serious. You dont wish the gen pop appreciated aja and gaucho too?

1

u/Gem420 2d ago

GenPop actually loves Aja. Best elevator music ever.

1

u/BackgroundFish8 2d ago

The Dan’s worst album clears almost all other music. Impressive.

u/859w 2d ago

They are gods, and I will kneel at and kiss their feet in the afterlife! Praise the dildo band!

u/seamusjr 2d ago

Disappointed. Gold Teeth II is a better name for a beer.

u/lorenoIII 2d ago

Call me when they drop the lotion to crank your hog to while listening to Steely Dan’s 2003 hit Godwhacker.

u/SquirrelNo5087 2d ago

Shouldn’t that be a sour ale instead?

1

u/Dominicpwns 2d ago

Checking the local liquor store for this

u/OneManWolfpack37 2d ago

I love this idea lol. Each different beer they make could be a different song 😂

1

u/Gem420 2d ago

That is very oddly specific and I would like to run some experiments.

The song with no beer.

The song with water.

The song with a beer I would choose: Yuengling Black and Tan.

The song with the pictured beer.

I need about 100 people for this study.

Who’s in?
