What should Eagles fans know?

He would come to your house and yell at you.

yes. very scary to think about. lol

Oh, let me see...that Don Henley has a lot of fans out there who don't think he's a raging control-freak asshole.

Yeah, that's about it.😡

Ah, we're just joshing - no insult intended.

yes indeed. lol

but in that business you have to be that way sometimes or else they will walk all over you.

Yes, SAR, that is common sense. But, this thread quickly derailed from an inquiry about band knowledge to a Don Henley bashfest. It gets old after a while.

I like Mr. H. and appreciate his talent - I'm sure we all do or we wouldn't be here.

[SilverAcidRayne]

but... it wasn't a bash fest. I basically stated in a joking way that I wouldn't want to be on his bad side. we all know he is a sweet heart and we love him. it was all in fun

I don't mind. It's all good, as long as there is the occasional bit of Eagles knowledge in the mix.

I have grown to appreciate Bernie's banjo playing though. He plays it very well. I wonder if he still does?

He played banjo on at least one track when I saw them on the HOTE tour, I'm sure of it - Doolin-Dalton perhaps.

AT, your friend should perhaps investigate the book Flying High by Laura Jackson. Most will recommend Marc Eliot's To The Limit but I don't because Glenn is treated very unfairlly in it. I do not recommend Don Felder's book Heaven & Hell but I guess it should be mentioned. Barney Hoskyns' Hotel California is a good overview of the country rock scene.

Regarding rarities etc, I don;t object to those being hidden. I have heard Georgia Peach & Wait & See & wasn't impressed. It's the lack of DVDs for the LROOE & HOTE tours that I have a problem with, especially now.
