10 Richest Rock Singers
http://www.mademan.com/mm/10-richest-rock-singers.html
On this list Don is on place #3!
Quote:
3. Don Henley:Lead singer of The Eagles, this superstar has an unbelievable $250 million, and worth every penny. Henley’s songs are soul-stirring, well-recorded and tasteful, and they all have a point: whether it's love, melancholia, nostalgia or even anger, it's always perfectly expressed. His prolific music is timeless.
If you click on some of the other "Best Of" lists. Hotel California is on one list (Best Rock Song I think) and Desperado is on Best Rock Ballad list.
It's in 'no particular order'.Quote:

I agree with the comments on Don's music...
But I do find this type of list a little strange. There's a big difference between earning it and having/keeping it - firstly the many generous donations some of these (and other) musicians make to charity, and secondly some of them e.g. Paul McCartney have had to pay out $$$ for divorces. (Lots of them in Rod Stewart's case!).
There's very little information about how they estimate the kind of money these people have, so I take these lists with a grain of salt.... especially when the site also features lists such as "10 Tips on How to Masturbate." lol

Cool! Celebrity / rock star marriages rarely make it to 16 years nowadays. Here's to Don and Sharon Henley - may they celebrate many more happy anniversaries together! :cheers:
Good for them! :cheers:
Found this when I was looking for something else. Not sure if it's been posted here before or not... it must be from last year...

Guess he still gets nervous before shows... lol
Lol!
I've seen that before and always assumed it was from the late 80s or something... but now I see from the bottom corner of the source document that it's dated May 3, 2000 - it's from the Inside Job tour. So we both guessed wrong, ltl!
I find it especially funny that the "SPECIAL NOTE" part of the rider in question is in all caps with an exclamation point. It's obviously VERY IMPORTANT! Sounds like it was probably added in reaction to some kind of emotionally scarring incident from a past tour involving backstage buddies of promoters. ;)
I've seen it somewhere before too........but can't remember where :confused:
I'm sure without putting restrictions on the promoters it would be a free-for-all backstage so I can understand the rider, but he does seem like a bit of a diva with the "I can't go on" attitude. Dude. Chill.
I have a lot of sympathy for him - I can only imagine some of the comments people have made over the years (based on what I see posted on the internet!). I understand him wanting a controlled environment before performing. And from watching the DVDs it does look like he still has occasional nervous moments while performing. (Okay, now I'll have to watch the DVDs again so I can back that comment up with examples! )
I have to tell you... I'm happy to hear this was at least a decade ago! I was having such a hard time imagining Don saying he couldn't go on. lolQuote:

Thanks for clarifying. i could not picture him being that temperamental. Not my DH. Maybe his evil twin, but not Don.

I'd like to also add my congrats to Don as well. Very well deserved!!! :nod:
Congrats to Don from me as well! Very cool!
How did I miss this???? :headscratch:
Big Congrats to Don from me as well!! :applause: :applause:
Just a little mention: In Bob Lefsetz's newsletter, a piece of trivia appeared that I hadn't heard before - Mary Kay Place is the godmother to one of Don's children.

Great Find Koala - Thanks! :thumbsup:
Hey, Don in color! Looks good! :yay:
That color looks great on him indeed, and I love how invested Don is in Caddo Lake's welfare. I also like his comments about Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson. Don is not as unyieldingly partisan as some would like to paint him.
I googled "Giant Salvinia" and watched an NBC report about the different plants that are killing the eco-system in lakes all across the Country. It's more widespread than I'd thought -- originating in South America. Like most things, prevention is half the battle, but it may be a losing battle with careless boaters unwittingly spreading the Species and their overwhelmingly fast reproduction. Scary stuff.
And, on a more frivolous note -- He Shaved Off the Goatee!!!! :yay:
A good friend of me send my this last night!
Its a short video with Don!

What a lovely video - especially full-screen! Seeing those birds fly away was uplifting. Don looks fabulous, too.
Great video Koala, thanks for sharing it and thanks to your friend too! :thumbsup:
But........."Former" Eagles member Don Henley????? :???:
Ha! Question in the other thread answered! :doh:
