Me neither.
TBH, I'm kind of disappointed that people are still supporting this sort of thing after all this time and a lot of them are repeat goers. And there are some who post reviews on other sites where they have the gall to claim that the show was better without Glenn when compared to the show they saw with him! That, I will make no apologies for saying is terrible and they should be ashamed of themselves and I don't care how they may see it nor will I apologize. Go if you must, but never to put Glenn down, even unintentionally. That's unacceptable behavior and is just in such poor taste, even in 2020. It doesn't matter. IMO, Glenn was the Eagles, to a large degree. Vince Gill and Deacon Frey don't come close to even filling one man's shoes. But in their defense, Glenn's shoes are unfillable. There will never be a better singer, frontman, and leader than Glenn Frey in the Eagles. Even Don, while they would usually approach it from a team, would play second fiddle to Glenn if that's what Glenn wanted. His gentle yet firm command of his band was admirable.
They'll keep going as long as their IMO bad behavior, is being rewarded by $. Even if they come out in wheelchairs with oxygen bottles, they'll still do it to just keep scraping that barrel for some more cash and Don gets to run the band how he sees fit without having to compromise with Glenn. He can let his already large ego take over. And Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit, Vince Gill, Deacon Frey, etc all get to be "yes men".

Seeing that clip of Glenn doing those band intros weirdly enough made me happy and sad at the same time. It literally gave me shivers - remembering what it used to be like - and made me sad - because of what the "band" is now.

The fake Eagles are going to be releasing a concert DVD in October but you can watch it on ESPN Sunday. I’m more likely to watch paint dry. Ugh!

This just makes me wanna puke! :puke:
Of course, everyone is free to do as they wish, but you couldn't pay me to watch this. Not even remotely interested!

It's just disgusting.
Hey Don and Co - how about some HOTE or LROOE material like we've been asking for, for YEARS now. You now, the ones that feature Glenn Lewis Frey - your leader and the one who cannot be forgotten. The one that there can't be an Eagles without.
It's worth repeating for the 1001th time - No Glenn, No Eagles!
The things (some) people will do for money...shameful.

I think I'd rather just turn off the electricity then have the chance that this garbage could show up on my TV.
I guess I won't be watching ESPN anytime soon, for fear of reruns. :(
Color me not surprised, either. Still upsetting.

Exactly. And yes it's not just HOTE or LROOE footage. The 70s stuff too! I'd love to see stuff from the Long Run period. And also from HFO. He'd rather just sweep that under the rug it seems in favor of the 3.0 "band".
The fact they put a VINCE GILL SOLO SONG on this "Eagles video" really chaps my @$$! I just noticed that little tidbit.
Wow. Just wow. Not surprising, but still so wrong. At least he's consistent. But I'll be honest, to see him doubling down just makes me have more and more distaste for the man.
Re: For Those Saying Glenn Frey is Necessary to the Eagles; no Glenn, no legit Eagles
well he is the only member left in the EAGLES LTD so whatever he says goes :hmm: i thought henley would release at least the rest of capital centre at least ... or from LROOE like you said, i would love to see footage from that concert
