The Third Brother

[sodascouts]

As I've told some of you, I got an e-mail from a guy who was a neighbor of Glenn's on Wyandotte Street in Royal Oak, and who was friends with his brother Matt. Before I got this e-mail, I'd never heard the name Matt Frey before, although I'd learned from another of Glenn's old friends that Glenn had a third brother whom he put through college. Turns out Matt Frey is 13 years younger than Glenn. Dang!

I was wondering - does anyone know if Glenn has ever spoken of Matt, or even of having a third brother at all? I know he mentions his other brother Alan by name in the Soul Searchin' liner notes, and has many times told the story of Alan hitting him in the face with a baseball bat when he was 13 or 14.

ETA: Found this on the topic posted on a Q&A site by an unknown poster:
"Matt used to hang out at a karaoke bar called the Corbin Bowl in Tarzana, CA. I wouldn't be surprised if he were still hanging out there today."

A brother 13 years younger than Glenn?http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif I would love to see a photo of the guy. Probably he does look like Glenn during the HFO era!http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif

I've never heard any mention of Matt by Glenn.

I had never heard of him mentioned by name, but I can remember mention of two brothers on Eagleland last year. Actually, I think it was mews who mentioned two siblings.

I can't find the thread right now, but that sounds right. And mews would know!

I remember hearing about the brother he was putting through college (isn't that mentioned in one of the Rolling Stone interviews?), but I guess I had always assumed he was talking about Alan.

I don't remember that from the RS interview, but honestly I have such a bad memory for details. It could very well have been in there. :blush:

That's interesting about his younger brother. I've just skimmed through a couple of articles but can't find the reference to putting him through college. I'll keep at it, though.
