    It's only been two weeks & already we are back to this sort of stuff. I really don't need this.
    I see you responded to what you wanted to make it look like I said instead of what I said. I truly don't need that stuff.

    The point that the Eagles reunited for easy money is pretty clear. Henley's solo career made all the others look pretty lame. All this nonsense of brothers and such is just talk and we all know it. They named it "Hell Freezes Over" for a reason.

    This does not take away from Frey's memory, catalog or talent at all.

    I have no idea what point you are trying to make but I repeat, what you are saying is inappropriate at this time.

    As for your sarcastic reposting of my words that I don't need this stuff, let me repeat it. I don't. I am having a very hard time at the moment. All I ask is for some respect & sensitivity to be shown.

    What stuff are you referring to? No one is allowed to respond to a question about the Eagles breaking up? That is quite odd since that is what happens on a forum. I was not sarcastic, just pointing out that you misquoted me. I think you were the one that jumped all over me last time I came on here.

    You said 'Henley never really needed Frey' and I quoted you directly.

    I believe that of course Henley & the other remaining Eagles will continue their solo careers.

    I suppose I understand why some wish to talk about this, but where I come from it is called dancing on a grave.

    I really enjoyed "The Concert For George" for George Harrison and I would hope one day in the future something similar would be possible as a tribute to Glenn.

    I don't know how long that concert took place after George passed away?

    It was exactly a year later.

    I have no idea why you are arguing about this. Henley swept awards, sold crap tons of records and would have never got back with the Eagles unless he was got an offer he couldn't refuse. All this is indisputable.

    The fact that Frey was a huge talent that wrote and sang some of the best songs in history (in my opinion) is not being argued.

    With you it is all or nothing right?

    I still listen to that album. Harrison was a huge talent. How amazing to have Clapton as your best friend.

    I just watched History of the Eagles the other night again as it was on CNN & Henley said he wanted to get the Eagles back together, as he liked being part of a band. His solo career was successful & he had nothing to prove. He didn't like being responsible for everything , or every wrong note. He liked being part of a band, so I certainly wouldn't say he didn't need Glenn. I think he liked the band rather than being a solo act.

    OK then. In a thread about whether the Eagles would continue, I thought the comments about how Henley was the most successful & never needed Frey at that time, while they may have been correct, were disrespectful. The comments about how the reunion was all for money & the 'brothers' references are 'nonsense' I also found extremely disrepectful at this time. The entire thread upsets me so I am leaving it.
