tour that she had been announced to join this summer. “No one is entirely sure why,” she wrote, “but it seems they thought their audience wouldn’t like a female singer-songwriter?”
The alleged dismissal took Mann particularly aback because, she wrote in the illustration, “As it happens, Steely Dan is the one band that I 100% love, with no reservations, so it really sucks.” When the tour was first announced, Steve Winwood was billed as a hear-co-headliner, but on Feb. 1, the news went out that Winwood was off the tour and Mann and Snarky Puppy would be Steely Dan’s opening acts in his stead. Snarky Puppy was — and presumably still is — booked for the first part of the tour, from May 20 through June 19, and then Mann was to have opened June 21 through July 3.
Mann hasn’t lost her sense of humor about the situation, as she tweeted, “All is forgiven if Donald just tells me what Brooklyn is about,” referring to the not entirely self-explanatory song “Brooklyn .”
As we don't know what's going on, we don't know whats going on, so maybe stop speculating into the unknown?!
Steely Dan had one good album, Aja. Aimee Mann was amazing w/Til Tuesday and got better when solo: I’m With Stupid, Bachelor No 2, Lost In Space feature some of the best songwriting and album production (the kind so perfect it doesn’t distract from the songs) & are all Aces
That's real bad news.

she should consider herself lucky to no lonber be associated with such a terrible band.
“Aimee, please lose our number?” Steely Dan has always been a cheese ball garbage band from the 70’s so screw Fagen and his misogynist fans.
Who are their sponsors? Could the problem be that she recently tweeted that all alcohol is poison.
It’s not a mystery; it’s misogyny.
shell_loyd For being female Steely Dan needs to grow up.
Who is that?
I suppose it’s an homage, but Fagan without Becker doesn’t add up to Steely Dan to me.
