Did some poking online and found info about the legal aspects that I brought up.

Background:

Me
Has it occurred to anyone [Glenn] would have made legal arrangements ...

Sodascouts
I have never heard of any rock star ever putting something like that in his/her will. Have you?

WalshFan88
Definitely not.

Me
...I would think there would be contracts and agreements and maybe negotiations involved…

Sodascouts
…. I don't think anyone has EVER tried to do that before (that I'm aware of).
So saying OF COURSE he would have, when NO ONE ever has, is quite a leap.

Me
... seems unlikely he wouldn't put anything...in his will…future earnings ...his wishes for his...stake...

WalshFan88
….I think there is some grasping for straws at this point in trying to justify them moving on without Glenn.

Me
...Suggesting that he may have put something in his will regarding the Eagles is fair, legitimate …

It seems that what I suggested is common. (I bolded the relative parts.)


From
https://www.hg.org/legal-articles/ba...pyrights-41346 :

“In order to avoid disputes later, a band needs a band agreement which states how the band will divide their profits and which provides how decisions shall be made, how departing band members will be paid and the rights to use the band name after a break up or a band member departs…..”


From
https://bandzoogle.com/blog/creating...u-need-to-know :

“Being a musician is a business. If you’re in band, one of the most important elements…is having an effective band agreement.

Without agreement among the members of your band, whether verbal, written on a napkin….texted, or written by an entertainment lawyer..., some key issues will need to be negotiated .... Or you may need to rely on the law, which may not provide appropriate solutions for your situation.

The Band Name
….Does anyone have more control regarding the band name? May the band only use the name if everyone is still performing together? May any majority of the members performing together use the name? Does the name follow Person A, whether she’s in the band or not? How about only Person A and Person B may use the band, regardless of whether anyone else is still in the band?”

New and Former Members
Who has the authority to add a member?

How much money, if any, is owed to a former band member? ...what’s the formula regarding royalties and any other income from recordings made while the former member was a member?

What happens if a band member gets sick, disabled or dies?.. ….
