They posed for a photo by the amps, arms around each other, and we exchanged phone numbers. I stayed in touch with them. (Little did I know, that fuzzy group shot would be one of the only known photos of all four original members hugging each other. Looking at it today, it has the same slightly surreal quality of one of those photos of the Loch Ness Monster.)

In The Wild: "Already Gone" & "Ol' 55" blasting out loudly in the bar I just served over Pub Quiz in...for my part, I spun "Heartache Tonight" between rounds.

Shit, and now "Outlaw Man"!

I was “Get Down Clown.” And Glenn, who along with Henley made a regular habit of charming the ladies with gallant good manners, was “the Teen King.”

lol he was named "The Teen King" for his gallant good manners yes

i tip my fedora to you, good sir

why does every other sentence in this make me want to punch everyone involved?

a natural reaction to anything to do with The Fucking Eagles

To gain the perfect drum sound, Bell often instructed the drummer to put a wallet on the snare drum. Wallet on the Snare was one of the working titles for the album.

Had to go back and check out Chug All Night again and

Maybe move this thread to De Subjectivisten?

holy shit

oh jesus

...and I thought this revive would be about Walsh opening for Bad Company this summer.

But seriously, WOW--you knew there'd be no happy ending here, but still...

hmmm

that is one hell of a quick "thorough investigation"

Too soon?

I heard about you and that man
There's just one thing I don't understand
You say he's a liar and he put out your fire
How come you still got his gun in your hand?

Well, yeah.

In The Wild: Vince Gill's (?) faithful cover of "I Can't Tell You Why" at Dairy Queen.

In other news, the boys are the subject of the latest Rolling Stone "Collector's Edition" which boasts extensive new commentary from our Donster.

Don: Wendy Davis is a true patriot, and I completely endorse her platform against the cronyism leading to a frail grasp on the big picture shared by her opponent, Mr. Abbott, and all his friends down at the Petroleum Club.

Glenn: And I think I can speak for us both when I endorse the platform that both myself and Don would totally hit that.

Don: Well, yeah.

what would they about Trump

DON: The fact that someone like Donald Trump can actually be viable GOP presidential candidate just shows that for all the records and concert tickets we've sold, all the lives we've touched in song, that no one really was listening to us when we were performing "The Last Resort", or when I did "Gimme What You Got" or "Workin' It" in my also well-regarded solo performances. Like it or not, We are truly in "The Garden of Allah" now.

GLENN's GHOST: I wouldn't mind spending some time in "The Garden of Melania" right now though.

DON: Well, yeah.

In The Wild: "Wasted Time" on the classic rock muzak at this bar I fixing to help run a Quiz at.

Schmit recently debuted the album's breezy lead single, "Red Dirt Road," which pays tribute to the soil of Hawaiian island Kaua'i.
"There's some rich, deep soil there," he told Rolling Stone. "You have a good chance of growing a plumeria tree by just sticking a branch of a plumeria into the ground. It's unbelievable.

why does the statue look like Bob from Twin Peaks?

"Looking for statues of Pat Tillman and Glenn Frey? Well there's only one state where you can find 'em BOTH."

Arizona aka Nightmare Fuel

says it was Glenn's band

man this thing was three years ago!

Well, yeah.

"It would just seem like greed or something," says Henley.

carve that on his tombstone

...alongside the complete, unabridged lyrics to "The Garden of Allah".

*including the rap*

Schmidt and Walsh's contracts stipulate that they get buried with him.

I'd forgotten that Bob Seger co-wrote "Heartache Tonight"; he showed up to sing it at the Kennedy Center Honors:

HEARTACHE TONIGHT
GLENN: …and then they sold 12 million records, and everything changed! As Bob Dylan said, “They deceived me into thinking I had something to protect.” And that’s what happened with us. We made it, and it ate us. The Long Run became, indeed, the long run. It was a difficult record to make overall, but I loved “Heartache Tonight.” Whenever Bob Seger was in L.A., he always used to come over and visit me, and he’d visit Don, too, and play us stuff he was working on — and we would do the same. I seem to remember that I had the verse thing going on for “Heartache Tonight,” and I was showing it to Seger, and we were jammin’ — I think we were jammin’ on electric guitars at LaFontaine — and then he blurted out the chorus. That’s how “Heartache” started. Then Bob disappeared, and J.D., Don, and I finished that song up. No heavy lyrics — the song is more of a romp — and that’s what it was intended to be.

One of the revelations from the solo listening thread was that away from Henley & Seger, Glen couldn't write a meat and potatoes rocker to save his ass.

uh wait -- you don't like "Party Town"?

My local rock station WJMX used to play this every Friday afternoon at 5:00 to signal the start of the weekend. Rest in Peace Glenn.

XP: It's no "Chug All Night".

It'll never end...

In addition to the previously reported addition of Deacon Frey, who will step into the spot left vacant with the passing of his father Glenn, the group will be joined by veteran country artist Vince Gill. The Los Angeles Times reports that Gill will split vocal duties with the younger Frey on Glenn’s songs.

Eagles co-founder Don Henley, who earlier referred to Deacon’s entrance as a modern musical version of the old “guild system, where the father is the master and the son is the apprentice,” admitted that he viewed the group as finished after Glenn’s passing, but quoted Ralph Waldo Emerson while exercising his right to change his mind: “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.”
