Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Back a minute to the college journalist's article that DF posted and TBF already quoted:
"I couldn’t believe that I was finally getting to hear that song live, from the hands and the mouths of the very geniuses who wrote it. The crowd went frantic, and the first riffs of the guitar sent a shudder down my back. I walked as slowly as possible behind our escort, all the while absorbing every tiny little bit of this bitter-sweet acoustic miracle."
That's what I'm talking about. That's the feeling I got when I heard Hotel California live, and that's why it's my favorite live song.
I also had to smile to myself that this particular fan would consider himself very lucky that the Eagles aren't doing BBF anymore!

Do not ask me how I stumbled upon this one because I'm really not sure! Interesting to say the least. I wonder if these quotes are for real or not? Thoughts please?

Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
I recognize the name - this person was a member of another board I once posted on. Not sure if she's a member here.
I think I've heard some of the quotes before, and I believe they are indeed legit... but Joe's stories are often made up, so I guess it is "legit" only in the sense that it came from his mouth. lol

Thanks for finding that FFL. I guess I've never looked at the whole exclusive album deal that way. It makes sense, though.
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
If Guns and Roses, who has been non existant for the last decade can sell a million through a deal like that then, yes it is evidently the way to go anymore if the music industry has any way of even coming close to what record sales were like before internet piracy and IMO lack of promotion by record companies for bands that are more than two yrs old.

Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Interesting! I'd hesitate to buy it, though, because it looks like a collection of interviews we've already read. Thanks for the heads up anyway!

I got this on Google Alert http://shaoweii.blogspot.com/ I thought it was kind of cute
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
lol! That is cute. Too bad nobody does Eagles tributes around here!
