View Full Version : Interesting Experience at Eagles concert

Hi All....this is my first time to this site. I really enjoy reading all the material about the Eagles. I've seen them twice...once during Long Road out of Eden and then last Nov. in NY.

It was at the concert in NY that I had a really cool, interesting experience. During intermission while I was seated in my seat in the 17th row two young boys walked up to me and said "you've been selected as the fan of the night" or something to that effect. I thought to myself these boys are playing a joke on me. One of them then extends his hand and gives me a guitar pic that has Glenn Frey written on one side and Eagles 2013 on the other. They told me they, or at least one of them, was Glenn Frey's son, Otis. He showed me his credentials hanging around his neck and it did indeed said "Otis Frey" so I guess these boys were legit. They also mentioned they were living in New York now which Glenn also stated later on in the concert. I was still in disbelief the rest of the night. Attached are a few pics I took. Of course the one of the boys is blurry.

Thanks for posting, DA! When I first saw the 1st photo, before I read your post, I said to myself, "That looks like, Otis". Shows that Glenn really does appreciate his fans. :nod:

Welcome, DA! I'm sure you will enjoy it here! :-)

Welcome DA! And what a cool experience for you to be given that pic from Glenn's son. I was at that show and saw Otis and his friend walking around the arena before the show. He looked very 'official' as he was pointing out certain 'techy' things in the ceiling to his friend as if he were giving him a tour. Very cute!

And let us know if you can't figure out how to post pictures. We'll be glad to help. There is also a Photo Posting Guidelines thread in the Border Patrol forum that may help you.

I thought I had the picture issue worked out. Can everyone see them now?

Also, does anyone know if both of the boys are Glenn's sons or just the one on the right who I believe was Otis?

Otis is on the right. Deacon, Glenn's other son, is in his late teens.

Thanks for the warm welcome. A lot of friendly Eagles fans here. I'm not sure where to ask this but I've been wondering about Randy's health and if there is any possibility he will join the tour?

DA - I still don't see the pictures when I click on the link that you posted. However, I saw that you had added it to a photo album in your profile so I was able to see it there. That is definitely a genuine Glenn Frey guitar pic and that is also definitely Glenn's son, Otis, in your picture. So it is legit for sure.

As far as Randy, we were really crossing our fingers that he would make an appearance at the shows in L.A. last week, but it didn't happen. There are still 3 shows left in L.A. so I guess it's still possible that it could. However, it doesn't look as if the chances are very good that he will be joining the tour at this point. :sad:

I love hearing these type of stories. Thanks for sharing it!

Last we heard, Randy's not up to touring, but is doing better.

I saw the pictures in your first post. I responded to your query about whether they were both Glenn's sons. Otis is on the right. The other boy must be a friend of Otis.

Ok....thanks....just wanted to make sure that those that could see the pics can still see them. It appears that some cannot see them for some reason.

Those boys are definitely official - they have a walkie-talkie, haha. If I didn't know better I'd say they're brothers!! I'm intrigued by Glenn LIVING in NYC...why...? And Timothy just bought a place there. Eagles musical....??? :shrug:

That is such a great story! What a nice memory to have in addition to seeing a great show.

Glenn's son and his friend look very young.

Thanks Dreamer!- I thought he looked pretty young- Somehow I thought Glenn's kids were all in their later teens.

Yeah DA - There are a few Borderers, including myself, that are planning on going to the D.C. show. Would love to meet up with you before the show to say 'hello' and chat for a bit. We have a 'pre-show anticipation' thread to discuss it here (https://www.eaglesonlinecentral.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4700).
