Scott proposes
Here is a little note from Scott Crago that was posted in Feed The Fire. I was in chat with Joe Walsh and Timothy last night and this really happened, although I can't be 100% sure this was written by Scott. Can you imagine being proposed to in front of all those people?
From: Scott Crago (Eagles back up drummer)
Dear family and friends.
It was 5 years ago, almost to the day, that I met Elisabeth Brewer back
stage at the Boston Garden (then the Fleet Center). She was the on call
doctor for The Eagles Farewell 1 tour.
Last night, July 30th, 2008, In front of family, friends and 15,000
screaming fans at the (now)T.D North Bank Garden in Boston Massachusetts, I
asked the love of my life, Dr. Elisabeth Brewer to marry me. She had no
choice but to say yes.
I had told no one of my plan except for our lighting director and 3 camera
operators. After Glenn Frey introduced me to my home town crowd, I unrolled
a scroll that I had made earlier in the day with block lettering that read
ELISABETH... WILL YOU MARRY ME?"
An enormous roar went up as the sign was flashed onto our "big screens" for
all the Garden to see. A spot light hit Elisabeth as the video cameras
caught her overwhelming shock.
The moment was beautiful.
This is my 14th year with the Eagles and I never saw such big smiles from
Don, Glenn, Joe and Timothy as I did when I unrolled that scroll. My band
mates, friends and family are all very thrilled for Elisabeth and I, as I am
sure you are as well.
The event was all caught on film, and I hope to share it with you at some
point. I only wish that you all could have been there for that moment. It
truly was exciting.
After the show, I presented Elisabeth with her engagement ring. She
accepted.... and yes, I was on one knee.
Feel free to pass this on to other family members and friends. I know I don
t have everyone's e-mail addresses.
All my best , and kind regards to you and your families.
Scott

Thanks for posting that, Becky. Wow - what a guy!!! How sweet was that!!!
-
OMG That is so wonderful! Thanks Becky!
Scott is a great guy! :D
-
Oh Rckn, how romantic! Thanks for posting that. I wonder if anyone will have captured the announcement on film? I wish Scott and Elisabeth the very best for their future together. :)
(Btw, can I volunteer to be on call tour doctor next time? My fees are very reasonable - tickets would do!)
-
Wow! Congratulations to Scott and Elisabeth! :hug:
-
I am thrilled to hear about Scott's wonderful proposal at the concert that night. Talk about being swept off your feet! My congratulations to Scott & Elisabeth.
-
Congratulations from me too to Scott and Elisabeth. I hope they will be very happy together. And what a romantic guy Scott is! How wonderful too to all the audience who were able to watch the ecvent unfold!
:cheers:
Of course that should be champagne glasses, but you get the idea!!

My belated congratulations to the happy couple!

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Question that I'm sure someone here (Steph?) can answer. Our friends were over last evening and the conversation once again turned to the Eagles (Hmm -wonder how?:huh:) and my friend was asking about the "cute keyboardist" meaning Will. Told her who he was but really don't have much info about him. Told her I bet I can get the info on him before I see her again Saturday. Is it already posted here somewhere that someone can direct me to or can someone tell me the info on him like age, marital status and stuff? I know he has been with Glenn and Don for a very long time on solo stuff also and that he has done a lot of work as musical director on other projects. Thanks!

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Come on guys-I need answers here to the above questions! Don't let me and Amy down.
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I'll try to google some information about Will.
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Here is his official homepage, didn't know if you already checked it.
But you find here some information about his music productions.

Hi,
I don't know too much about Will. He seems to keep his personal details to himself. There aren't any personal details on his web site.
I do know that....
1. Will is married & has kids(at least 2).
2. I think I read somewhere that Will is 38 - don't quote me on that though. His birthday is January 6.
Sorry this is all I have - wish I knew more. Anyway, as your friend says, Will is very cutie-cute. My avatar is from a photo I took at the O2 in March this year and I think Will looks gorgeous. :smitten:
LOL

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Thanks Steph and MH--I had done a search also and didn't come up with any more either. You gave me a little more than I had.

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I'm glad you had something with that info! :)
And now you can show your friend it, yeah! :D

So, seeing a pic in another thread with Scott in it reminded me of this. I wonder if the marriage has taken place? Anyone heard anything?
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Well, I've searched and searched, but can't find anything. Surely they have married by now. It's been nearly a year. :brickwall:

Re: Celebration of Eagle Hotness
I stumbled upon this pic and thought I'd post it in case no one had seen it before. Steuart looking a wee bit different here.

Re: Celebration of Eagle Hotness
Wow! That's a different look for him!

Re: Celebration of Eagle Hotness
hehehe Stewart has a Henley 'fro

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
He may not be backing the Eagles, but he backed one Eagle, Don.
I didn't want to take over Don's Chicago thread, but this Peter Thorn deserves a mention here. He plays an awesome guitar... and from what I've read, is a very in demand session musician. Took these from his myspace page...

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Wow, He's not a bad looking guy
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
EL, surely you know by now that we're only interested in musical ability on these boards... :lie:
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I'm sure his "Musical" Ability is good too ;) :twisted:
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Here's some musical ability... not w/Don, but this thread is about the backup musicians... enjoy!

Yes and I'll second that! :smitten:

Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Is it wrong to think he's sexy w/both ears pierced? I don't think a lot of guys can pull that off... but OMG. His look is everything I find sexy. Trim, dark crazy hair, strong jaw line, Chuck Taylor type shoes, pierced...
I love TBS, but I can't seem to get this new rockstar off my mind!
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
LTL, you are clearly smitten :smitten:. I wish I could have seen him.
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Wow he is good looking:-D I think I like Will Hollis more:drool:
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Yes, Peter played some awesome guitar at the Don shows.:guitar:
I didn't really notice his looks too much - with WILL HOLLIS there I didn't have eyes for anyone else.:smitten::inlove:
Looking at my photos from the shows, Peter appears quite often as he was stood near Will - so I expect I'll find a few to post.

I think you're allowed more than one unattainable rock star love at a time. The key word is unattainable. Once you actually attain one, then you should limit yourself to just that one, OK? Just to be fair, you see. In the meantime, however, go for it...it hasn't stopped any of the rest of us!
BTW, having heard nothing of this Peter Thorn's musical abilities, I must say I concur with your assessment of his physical attributes.:wink:
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I hear that Peter, is a very good guitar player. But I don't know I've never heard him either.
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
Another little bit of Pete Thorn info,
Will Hollis played live with 'American Idol' Ace Young, and Pete was in the band too.
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I wonder if Will had anything to do with Pete getting this job?
-
Re: Backup Band and Additional Musicians
I didn't know that. I wonder too:eyebrow:
