    Default 6 days 'til 60

    I figured, since Glenn is turning the big 6-0 this year - the last Eagle to do so - that I'd make it a particularly big shebang. For the next six days, I'll be putting treats up from progressive decades until we get to the big day itself, November 6! Today, I started with Longbranch Pennywhistle stuff. I'll C&P my front page post here:

    ------------------------------

    Let's take a step back in time to 1968-1969, when our hero was just becoming old enough to legally drink.

    See a fashionably attired J.D Souther trying to rescue Glenn, who has obviously happily fallen into the clutches of a Kite Woman, on a wallpaper using the back cover of the Longbranch Pennywhistle album and an announcement from their first show at the Troubadour:

    Check out an avatar of Glenn at 21:


    There are also two new Longbranch Pennywhistle sidebars:


    And our last item of the day: a video clip from the movie Vanishing Point, where you can hear the unreleased Longbranch Pennywhistle track "I Can't Believe It" (previously available here only as audio).

    Oh my - This is gonna be fun!!!!

    BTW - We did this last year when the others guys turned 60. In honor of Glenn being the last Eagle to reach this milestone, I hereby make a motion that we declare this 'Glenn Frey Week' on The Border.

    All in favor, say .

    Nancy those are wonderful. Kinda brings it into perspective. Glenn was legally old enough to drink the year I was born!!

    Ah yes. I'm not sure how I'll celebrate but I'll think of something. The fridge already has relevant magnets all over it.
