That's great Glenn took them under his wing. :) Shun, the other member was the Irish one Niall Horan, who started his solo career last year (I know most about him since he resembles one of the "Downton Abbey" actors Allen Leech LOL). I've only liked a few of One Direction's songs but I have actually liked more of their solo stuff. I also remember a younger female singer, though can't remember her name right now, that tweeted about Glenn after he passed about him being a mentor to her too.

Harry used to date Kendall Jenner, that's why he was at the Forum show. Kris Jenner is a long time friend of Cindy's. Both he and Niall have said they are huge fans of the Eagles. There are pictures floating around of Niall with Don and Timothy, and one of Harry with Sophie Henley. It's nice that Glenn was willing to mentor him.

Yes, it really is nice! I think Glenn enjoyed mentoring and teaching alot - clearly his students at Steinhardt NYU appreciated and respected him very much.
“The biggest takeaway from working with Glenn was his passion for the craft of songwriting, and the work required to create a great song. This attention to detail and focus on a consistent and cohesive narrative is something that really pushed me as a writer, and I owe it to Glenn and the NYU songwriting program for this awareness. I'm so grateful to Glenn for his willingness to share his time and wisdom with us.” - Peter Wise Class of 2014

Oh how I'd like to have been a fly on the wall when the students analyzed NKIT in front of Glenn. I've probably mentioned this before, but I'm a melody/chord person more than a lyric person, so it would be interesting to hear what kind of musical advice/comments the students received from Glenn.

I was able to attend his NYU masterclass and it was really fascinating, even for someone like me who isn't a songwriter. At the end, he sang "It's Your World Now" to those students out there - passing the baton to the next generation of songwriters. It was a lovely moment.

Wow, what an amazing opportunity so glad you were able to attend!

Sorry if this question is random but with young Deacon being in the news these days, I've wondered: was he named after the Steely Dan song "Deacon Blue"?
Re: Glenn in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Saw this article come up on Glenn's Google Alert that there's some Eagles documentary that was made last year that will be airing on the Ovation channel called "The Long Road". They'll be airing other docs on other classic rock artists too all June. Here's the blurb from the site:

Yes, as far as I know.
Re: Glenn in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Can't to wait to see this one and some of the others mentioned too!
Thanks for the headsup!
