HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLENN :heart: FREY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favourite singer, songwriter and musician of all time. Thank you for all the wonderful music over the years and for all that is to come.

On a personal note too, thank you for those wonderful concerts in Niagara Falls earlier in the year, ones which I felt sooo privileged to attend. You made everybody (including myself) feel so special, and I'm really looking forward to getting your new album in the new year.

So have a wonderful day with your family and friends, and hopefully another happy and successful year to come.

Several people (ourselves included) shouted out a 'happy birthday' to him this evening. I'm sure he heard a few of them, but he never 'acknowledged' it... The man looks and sounds incredible... I'm sorry, but his parents and media have lied to us all these years. No way is he 63 years old. No freakin' way.

Happy birthday Glenn! I'll bet you never thought you'd still be making music and successfully touring with the Eagles all these years later! Your fans love you, and by the way, we enjoy hearing you sing lead just as much as Don. His voice may be money, but yours is heart. :heart:

Here's to a happy and successful year! :cheers:

Just wanted to make a few other comments here ...

First of all - Soda, your AV(s) are awesome! :thumbsup:

And GA - so is your collage. Seems there are a few hardcores there peeking through at Glenn. :wink:

And VAisFEL - glad you and some others did a birthday shoutout for him. It's too bad he didn't acknowledge it. If he's anything like me, he probably just as soon not be reminded of it. :grin:

Dreamer, I have to say it's a little confusing going from looking at that sweet birthday boy pic in your above post, and then looking at your smokin' avatar! I feel a bit naughty... :blush: :laugh:

Awwwwww. He is a sweetie! Thanks for the compliments Dreamer and Koala. I wanted to do a different collage than last year, so I thought that as Glenn :heart: had done so much this year, both with the band AND solo, I'd stick to the year gone by!

And Soda, think I said it in another thread, but let me repeat it, your av is brilliant!

Wishing Glenn a very Happy Birthday indeed!

I hope he is having a wonderful day and that he realizes just how much he is loved and respected around the world. Fingers crossed I'll be seeing him again on the 19th...

GA, your collage is gorgeous!

Dear Glenn,

I hope you have a very, very happy birthday with your family & friends.

This year has been very special for me. I had the greatest privilege of watching those incredible solo shows at Niagara Falls, along with other Borderers. It's no exaggeration to say that I'm still recovering. All the risks you took singing those songs - to be there hearing you sing those songs for the first time in public was an absolute gift from you. I cannot express my gratitude enough. I eagerly await the release of your first new album since 1992 next year and your 40th year with the band you founded and still lead.

PM: that comment about how his voice has 'heart' is so accurate that I can only echo it with my own phrase. Don is Golden Throat; he is Velvet Throat.

GA: thank you for using some of my Sydney photos in that collage as well as the Fallsview photos. I think that is the best one yet.

I'd love to have an avatar collage like Soda's; it's brilliant.

It's been a while since I've made a solo wallpaper. Here's one made from a photo FP took, only slightly coiffed a bit:

Recently, a DJ posted some snippets of an interview he did with Glenn back in 1982. I've put them up on GFO:

Here's a little bit of trivia based on Glenn :heart:s birthday.

The 6th November was also the birth date of Adolphe Sax inventor of the saxophone (1814) and Jean Philippe Sousa, inventor of the Sousaphone (1854). Guess it's a good birth date for musical genius!

Thanks for your lovely comps Julie, and also for the use of the lovely pics you tok at the various gigs. I have also used the August picture on the front of a Fallsview t-shirt that I made last week. I'll post a pic of it this week.

Hmmm, we've speculated before on why Glenn seems to use the sax so much in his songs....could this be the reason? Subconsciously paying tribute to the man born on the same day as him?

Soda, thank you so much. That is my favourite photo from that show. It's pure coincidence that it is also this week's avatar & it has been my profile photo for some time (although I might change it today).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLENN!

Thanks so much for the music all these years! I've been a fan from the beginning of the Eagles and love, love, love your voice and your music! I must agree with what has already been said about your voice: Don's may be money, but yours is heart! What a wonderful sentiment and it's so true!

I hope you had a wonderful day with your family and friends! :birthday:

And I'd love it if you would do more solo concerts. Please come to the Midwest! :cheers:
