Of course, it takes a mighty crew of musicians to back Becker and Fagen.  Joining them will be the same group as the last tour, now dubbed “The Bipolar Allstars,” featuring Keith Carlock on drums, bassist Freddie Washington, Jim Beard on keyboards and guitarist Jon Herington. Joining them will be three backup singers called The Borderline Brats.
