Glenn Frey: Gone but not Forgotten

I'm afraid that there's no way that I will be able to make the trip, but I will certainly be there in spirit.

Eric Church just played some of "Already Gone" in tribute to Glenn during the ACMs. They did a DJ record scratching thing at the end and then back into his own song. He did a little bit of all of the ones who've passed recently.

Aw. Thanks for letting us know about that, Austin. I hope it shows up on YouTube.

Saw it too, Austin! My sister texted me before it came on because she knew I'd have a visceral reaction if I wasn't warned beforehand... :P But it was a nice little tribute, and I enjoyed it.

I need to clarify. Eric played a part of his new song, then he did a DJ thing with the On The Border record in clear view on the table and then picked his guitar back up and finished his song. Eric himself did not perform the song, they just played the song from the record.

Yes, that was a very nice surprise.

Yeah I'm a huge modern country (not so much classic country) fan, so I love to watch the CMAs and ACMs every year.

That was nice of Eric. At least somebody cared to even pay tribute to Glenn even if it was brief. It is cool he called Glenn (or the Eagles) one of his influences.

Austin. I'm the opposite. I hate today's country. Give me Garth, Vince, Alan, Tim, Brad, Keith, Toby, Reba, Martina. Ok. Brad and Keith are more today's country, but I was listening to them way before they got very big.

I saw it too - I'm not much of a fan and wasn't watching, but my niece gave me a heads up to turn it on. I was happy that they did it of course, but it was a little shorter than I would have liked. But, I guess we should take whatever we get.

Something is better than nothing at all, I say...
