I will admit that I believe Eagles ended with Glenn's passing, and I wish they weren't doing these shows. But they are. I still love these people like kinfolks. This, however, is about Deacon. I don't expect him to be a clone of his dad. There is much residual love for him, in the same way you love a dear friend's children and want good things for them.
I don't know if Deacon reads The Border, but if I were him I would, wouldn't you? Many have said as much, but I had the idea of an "encouragement thread" for him to help chase away the butterflies. If someone feels this is inappropriate, feel free to remove it.
So I start by saying: Break a Leg!...Knock 'Em Dead!...W-0-0-0-H-0-0-0!!, and G0-0-0-0 DEACON!!!
