I don't consider Borderers on either side of the fence the majority. Please read what I replied to on maryc's post. I'm talking about the people who can't even name all the members or only know a few songs but couldn't name 4 albums.
I consider Borderers to be hardcore fans, not casual fans who don't know any better.
I think brainwash is the wrong word. I think they saw the news that the Eagles were touring again and said “Cool the Eagles are touring with Glenn Frey’s son and Vince Gill. Let’s go see them” I don’t think they either paid attention to what the band said or if they did, thought deeply about it. I don’t think what Irving and Don said effected what people’s opinion. So i don’t think brainwash is accurate. Though you are right most don’t know much about the band and are comparable to sheep in our context
Perhaps the wrong word. More like uninformed.
But my guess there are even people who don't even know Glenn is gone. Probably a very small few, but I'm sure they exist. They wouldn't know anything about the band besides "Oooh, Hotel California!".
Sheep is right. And no, I'm not putting anyone on this board in that group, if it wasn't already clear.
