Re: Glenn Frey Tribute at the Troubadour ---
Okay - When I first saw the link today, I thought this was a separate event from what was originally posted about in this thread. Somehow, I had in my mind that the original event was held last Saturday. But, I looked at the poster and it has tomorrow's date. I was wondering why there were two events scheduled, but I was, obviously, confused. I would so love to be at this. :cry:

That's a great line up. Love Bonnie and Glen too. I first saw Glen in the music film "Once", which is now one of my favorites, and he's a fantastic Irish singer/musician. I recognize a lot of the other artists too since I listen to a lot of country and alt-rock as well.

Sounds like a really cool event!

How I wish I could have gone to this!

This isn't from the most reliable of sources (a gossip piece in The Mirror tabloid).

Ahead of the Grammy's Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt performed at the West Hollywood venue where the band originally met and performed.

(I believe that Harry Styles was there, but it would have been easy for a London-based hack to mix up this tribute with the forthcoming one at the Grammys)
Re: Glenn Frey Tribute at the Troubadour ---
I saw a couple articles on Google and Bonnie tweeted about it. Didn't see anything about Don, Bernie, or Jackson so I think that article mixed the two. Harry Styles was there as was some other celebs who tweeted and posted pics on Instagram about it.
And on a side note Billy Joel performed "Take it Easy" during his concert last night in New York too (at 3:15 in the vid).

This article said Cindy and Irving was there.
