Katherine, thank you for those lovely pictures and the article. I agree with dreamer, he looks stunning! I love the one above where he seems surrounded by an 'aura'!
Soda, those screencaps are amazing. I don't get over to DHO enough: I have some catching up to do.
Not to be left out, Don says "HAPPY NEW YEAR, BABY!"

:heart:
And in case you wanted to see what Don looked like as a backup singer in the garage band, here's a video:
"Get Ready" with Tony Rich
Ooh, he looks great! Thanks! 8)
These All-Star Garage Band videos are all over the net. I just found this one, where Paul Shaffer tries to talk like Don--uh, "Mr. Precise":

Thanks for finding all of these other ones. I was searching youtube and couldn't find anything other than Gloria, Gimme Some Lovin' and Get Back. I would've loved to have seen this entire show. Don looks and sounds fantastic in all of these clips, but the other performers have been great too.
Well, after viewing the DVD, Eagles: Desperado, the other day, I think I have to amend my above quote. While the still photos of Don with his 'fro and heavy facial hair previously did nothing for me, the video clips of him on this DVD (from the early to mid-70's) pretty much left me breathless! I've realized that he could be wearing a rainbow wig and flowered dress for all I care, but as long as I can see his eyes, hear him sing and watch him play the drums, I'd be a happy, happy woman. So, to those of you who like his very hairy 70's look, I'm beginning to see your point! :smitten:Quote:

Katherine, I understand how you feel. Previously, I didn't care much for Glenn's :heart: long-haired look with that long moustache (and he was pretty skinny in those days too :shock: ), but I just love the man so much, that I really don't care how long his hair or moustache was, I just love to watch him sing. His passion for his craft just gets to me. As for Don, I don't mind the 'fro much. The curls are cute...Quote:

Wow, I've just been through the last two pages or so and it seems I've missed quite a bit in this thread! :shock:Quote:

Yes, I know, Glenn's :heart: going to get jealous... Sorry, Sugar... :wink:
Wow, definitely one of my favorite Don pics. :D The shirt and jeans look fantastic on him. 8)
For me, Don's hottest era is the OOTN era, where he has the 'fro and the facial hair, but the 'fro isn't out of control yet as it kind of gets later. I also think the 'fro minus the facial hair doesn't look as good.
One of my fave photos:

On another note, I just scanned this in from my "Duets" CD:

Hmmmm. My favorite era for Don is also Soda's photos above, although I prefer him more "stubbly" than with the longer beard. :inlove: That 'fro did get a bit "out of control" after a while, didn't it!
Next would be the HFO era, as in this:
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y63...ast-resort.jpg
Yummy! :heart:
For me Don's hottest period would be the one that Soda posted with the white henley and jeans. Then it would be the storytellers era (*sigh*), and then HFO....all sighworthy era's ;)
The 90's! From his appearance on the Whoopi Goldberg show in '92 through HFO through his appearance on the All-star Garage Band in '97, he looks fantastic.Quote:

I have avoided answering this topic because it is so hard to choose! After much deliberation, I think it is 90s Don--a tossup between Garage Band Don, HFO Don and Storytellers Don.
He does look wonderful in the pic in my sig line, however...
<sigh> Wait, wait, I may have to look at some more pictures before I give my final answer! 8)
Since I posted some Kirshner 1974 screen shots in Frey Fever, I figured I'd post a few here, too!

Oh.
My.
God.
He was soooooooo pretty. :inlove:
I just want to run my fingers through that fabulous 'fro.
THANKS.
My my - He was a pretty boy. I especially like the one with the tongue. He doesn't look quite as illegal as Glenn did back then. :D
Awesome screenshots, Soda. Don is looking very fine indeed.
DF, I'm with you with the fro! :wink:
I just got the Live Inside Job DVD! While I haven't had time to do a lot of screenshots, these are from the opening interview:
http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k1...ejob/lbr01.jpg

http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k1...ejob/lbr03.jpg
http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k1...ejob/lbr04.jpg
Yay--I love it when you do screenshots! I'm looking forward to many, many more now....
He looked great in the beginning interview there. He was quite a bit more formal when he was actually performing, and I wasn't a huge fan of the little glasses he wore--you couldn't see his eyes. Still, it is a great video.
In the end, when he sings the jazzed up version of Hotel California (that many people didn't like), Don's Linden buddy, Richard Bowden, is the big guy with a beard playing one of the trombones.
Nice! :smitten:
Now I know I MUST get this dvd! Why I haven't already I'll never know! Thanks Soda!
Love those earlier 'fro pics, above, too! He looks goooooooo ooooood! :D
Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of the glasses either for the same reason you mentioned. It wouldn't have been bad if he had removed them at some point in the concert, but don't deny us those blue eyes for the whole show!Quote:

Oooh, Soda - thanks so much for these lovely screencaps of Don! :heart: The one above is my favourite. I think there's maybe a little too much 'fro there :wink:, but his face is very handsome. He looks so passionate.Quote:

there is a picture of Don (along with an interview) in this morning's Globe and Mail newspaper so here's the photo!! :)

Thanks for scanning that in and posting it - I've linked to it on DHO.
Great picture--thanks TF!
I think I’m probably in the minority, but I LOVE watching Don out front playing guitar on the new songs! It’s not that I don’t love watching him on drums, too, but there is just something about seeing him, standing out front & center, strumming the guitar. Don really plays the guitar on these new songs too—he has used a guitar as a prop in some of his songs, but he is really playing now, and I just love watching him.
(I had a boyfriend in high school who played guitar and sang to me, so that might factor in this a little.)
Oh, you're probably not in that much of a minority! Most women love guitarists. That's why the "key-tar" was invented - so keyboardists could get some more women. ;) Traditionally it goes that way for the drummer too - I remember on Wiseguy Glenn's character told a joke about how the great thing about being in a band is that you get all the women you want... unless you're the drummer. Then you go home alone. Naturally, unable to develope a drum-tar, the drummer must get himself a guitar in order to display himself for the ladies, lol, unless he wants to break out the cowbell! (However, Mick Fleetwood did devise a "percussive vest" to wear so that he could "drum" center stage. He looked absolutely ridiculous.)Quote:

Lucky for Don, that sexy voice would make him memorable even if he never left his kit!
I didn't forget my promise about these screenshots!
