Season 1 of Roadies

[Roey]

I didn't see the 3rd episode that featured Glenn's daughter but the last episode had connections to the Eagles. You saw the eagles signature display, Don Henley was quoted, a cameo by Shelli Azoff, an exaggerated character that resembled Irving Azoff, a memorial service at the LA Forum and a few subtle inferences. Jackson Browne's appearance was a pleasant surprise as was other musical guests including Eddie Vedder. It is a quirky series (not sure how realistic) with great potential. I understand a 2nd season is uncertain. I hope it comes back and has more cameos by musicians.

Can we move some of the posts from the Little Things thread to here?

[UndertheWire]

If posts are going to be copied from other threads (which I think is a good idea but I'm not the one doing the work), there are a few others

and some from post 135 on in the Almost Famous thread:
https://www.eaglesonlinecentral.com/...ead.php?t=6549

Also posts 445 and 446 in the TV thread

And then there's the Lindsey Buckingham thread:

I'd forgotten Lynyrd Skynyrd:

I agree it's better that the show has it's own thread. Don't forget ep 8, which is the Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute episode, also had some things that were inspired by the Eagles too.

I've loved the show and very happy with how it turned out. Feels like a 10 hour film of Cameron's and I like the characters and the musical cameos. I noticed things in earlier eps but the finale really had a feel of Glenn all through it.

Thanks everyone - I'll try to move some of the posts over here when I get a chance. And UTW - Thanks for the links - that'll be a big help.

[UndertheWire]

Thanks for doing this. I went back and read from the start.

You are very welcome, UTW. So - this turns out to be an interesting thread when compiled. I didn't know how seamless it would be since there are posts from so many different threads, but it doesn't appear to be too choppy.

Anyway, just an FYI, I moved most of the posts, but, in some cases, I copied the posts here, but also left them in their original threads. Enjoy!

Thanks Dreamer!!! This will help out a lot for those that haven't watched and have a place to talk about it more.

Cameron Crowe did just a great tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd last night in the latest episode of his show "Roadies"!!! All the characters spent the whole episode on a bus ride so the Phil character (Ron White) finally told them the story of how he met Ronnie and started touring with the band and we got to see the flashbacks. It was such a great episode and the actor who played Ronnie did a great job. Some of the stories were true and they used footage from actual Skynyrd concerts, but Cameron did also write in that story of what happened with Irving and the Eagles with the drugs at the airport but made it about Phil instead. The relationship Cameron wrote about Ronnie & Phil felt so much like how he wrote Russell & William's in "Almost Famous" and we know that was based off Cameron & Glenn's real life friendship, so when Phil talked about Ronnie dying and how hard it was to lose one of his close friends & mentors it hit me that I think Cameron was also talking about Glenn and I got teary eyed. It was such a great episode.

I'm watching that episode right now. I had forgot that this was talked about. As I was watching that scene, I was like its the Eagles story that Irving told in HOTE.
