Hmmm, the article said it was an ex from the 80s. As far as I know he ended with Lois Chiles fairly amicably and I think he's still friendly with Maren Jensen but that still leaves quite a few!!! ... Dana Delaney, Beverly D'Angelo and was it Walter Mondale's daughter among others??? Correct me if I'm wrong - I tend to block out the fact that Don had loads of girlfriends and now has a wife and children! It ruins my fantasy :hilarious:

Just saw this on Don's Facebook page. When I Stop Dreaming will make its world premiere on CMT Hot 20 Countdown this Saturday at 9a/8c. How cool.

When did Don have time to do the videos. LOL It looks like he's wearing the same clothes he was wearing in Take a Picture Of This and the setting looks the same. I need to watch Take a Picture of This Again. I see Will and Lance in the background.
I'm looking forward to see the video on Saturday.

Too funny! To be truthful I really don't have any interest in his love life past, present or future but geeze the man has been around. He knows who the song is about and I am fine with that. Then again isn't he still fairly close to Maren Jensen & her husband so he should know she's doing just fine.

It was nice waking up to am email from "Don Henley". I didn't know we were going to receive a cd with the purchase of concert tickets. Wouldn't doing that hurt cd sales?
Re: Press and Disussion about Don Henley's new album Cass County available Sept. 25,
I got my e-mail today too. I don't think it will hurt his sales, as the price was probably factored into the ticket price. So, we bought it either way.

No, those will be counted as "units sold" in the Billboard charts. Thus, Don guarantees he's going to get some pretty good numbers. The only thing I'm not sure of is whether these count as "pre-sales" or whether they will be counted towards first week sales. If it's the latter, he might get a #1 debut largely due to the strength of these "free CDs."
Clever boy! But he's not the only artist to use that trick, and it benefits us as well. We get a CD and we get to see our guy at the top of the charts. Plus, people who might otherwise not have bought the CD now have it. I'm cool with it!
Re: Press and Disussion about Don Henley's new album Cass County available Sept. 25,
That is smart and clever. You gotta love Don. I had wonder too how they will work the free cds in.
I'm wonder when he will start doing daytime and nighttime talk shows. If he wants more exposure and get good sells, he needs to also do talk shows and even some radio interviews. With When I Stop Dreaming makes its world premiere this Saturday, he's probably going to get a good response.
I just wish he had That Old Flame as his first country video. With Martina still hot on the charts, her fans can help us make TOF a huge hit on the country charts. They probably will make video (if they already have and just won't put it out just yet) a video.
Re: Press and Disussion about Don Henley's new album Cass County available Sept. 25,
I bet it won't be long before he starts the promotional appearances. Next week, perhaps?
I was just thinking about how many copies of this album I'm going to have. I'm getting that fancy pre-order bundle, I'm getting two CDs with my two tickets, and now it looks like I'll have to get another copy from Target in order to get those exclusive tracks.
These marketing techniques work like a charm on a hardcore like me!
Re: Press and Disussion about Don Henley's new album Cass County available Sept. 25,
Train in the Distance is now available.
I just finished listening to it. I like it. I think the rest of his songs will probably sound country. The lyrics are great.
Based on the 5 songs that have came out already, I think I'm going to like the album. I still don't like When I Stop Dreaming, but I can't wait to see the video tomorrow morning.
This will probably be the last song to be available for preview before the album comes out in 2 weeks. OMG. Two more weeks ladies. :partytime:

Can't wait to get home and give that song a listen! (Or 10). I'm definitely saving some of my birthday money to buy the album! I'll probably have to wait until October to get my hands on a physical copy of the album, but I'll be listening to it via Spotify! :partytime:
