    That San Diego '92 show was one of Glenn's best solo shows ever - he was so talkative, funny, and charming. Here's another quote from that show ...

    "You get up in the morning, you go out there, you fight, you slug away, you deal with different obstacles we have in our life - but we have to extract joy from living every single day."

    "People don't run out of dreams: People just run out of time ..."

    I loved that line. My favorite quote of all from Glenn and my favorite from HOTE. I was going to post that line, but never a chance to it.

    I believe that this one comes from the doc as well.

    "People didn't just listen to the Eagles. They did things to the Eagles."

    I can't remember what things Glenn mentioned, but it's true. The Eagles are a part of the soundtrack of many people's lives.

    "God likes a quiet giver". When a radio host wants him to talk about his charity work that people don't realize he does.

    "These are the jokes!" When an audience isn't laughing at his jokes.

    In response to Taylor's early teen tantrums - "You're going to need a car - and I'm the DMV".

    I found the one I wanted to share. It's from Cameron Crowe's tribute article he wrote for Rolling Stone about Glenn and their friendship.

    "When I once told him about a girl I was in love with from afar, a girl I was sure I needed to impress with a better 'act,' Frey reacted hugely. 'No!' he said with a pirate's smile. 'You don't need an act — all you need is to be you.' He leaned in close. 'If she can't smell your qualifications, move on.'"

    If anyone wondering if it's familiar the exact line was said by the Mike Damone character in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" and Cameron revealed in that article that like Russell Hammond in "Almost Famous", Mike was based off Glenn as well and Mike's friendship with Mark is again Glenn and Cameron's. Makes me wonder if there's a Glenn based character in all his movies as Glenn actually played a character Cameron wrote for him in "Jerry Maguire" and my favorite is "Say Anything" so looks like I need to rewatch.

    Or sometimes he'd say "C'mon that's damn funny."


    A couple of Glenn's descriptions of Joe ...

    "Joe is an interesting bunch of guys."

    "...the master blaster of the stratocaster."

    OK, I have one. In my view it should not be censored, so if you are offended, please forgive me this one.

    'Being in the Eagles was a fucking blast'.
