Felder Tweets

[Delilah]

It's just a shame Glenn and Don F didn't make that reconciliation before it was too late. I think I mentioned on another thread that it's a lesson in making sure you don't leave behind unfinished business, insofar as it depends on you. It's certainly an example for me, albeit a somber one.

I wish Don nothing but health, happiness, and peace, which is what I wish for all these guys.

Absolutely, Pippin, I heartily agree!

Pippin & Delilah - I am happy Don F. made the comments he did. However, I have to disagree in that I never read or saw any interviews in 2011 onward until Glenn died where he mad positive comment.

FWIW, you're disagreeing with something I never said.

And thank you, thelastresort, for posting the tweet.

Delilah - Sorry, I made a typo error - I meant 2001. You said "I have read Don F complimenting Glenn since 2001. I think what Don F has tended to emphasize more though, is the teamwork aspect of the band--that everyone contributed. Joe and Randy have also pointed out in interviews how everyone contributed to the music so it's not just something Don F made up."

I have never read or heard one nice word from Don regarding Glenn until after he passed. He said nasty things about him in almost every interview he gave. The first nice statement I ever saw was the day after Glenn died. He even went so far as to mock Glenn's illnesses just a few months before he past on his twitter page.
In recent interviews he has emphasized the team work of the band. This was not always true in the past.
I have seen Don in concert and he put on an enjoyable show. He is an incredible guitar player with few his equal.
The tell all book as well as Don's negative, nasty statements for 15 years sealed the likelihood of them ever reconciling.

Another interesting post from Don tonight. I wonder who it's about?

[Text for those who cannot see, it's a quote of 'I never knew how strong I was until I had to forgive someone who wasn't sorry, and accept an apology I never received.']

I hope he and his ladyfriend aren't having issues.

Love the quote someone tweeted in response, "Let go or be dragged." LOL

Seems like the Glenn thing isn't over.

Oh no, surely not! (regarding Kathrin)

[NightMistBlue]

I hope not. But I believe they were engaged for some years then decided not to get married so it seems it hasn't been entirely smooth sailing.

Don Felder on the passing of Tom Petty

I am sure this hits hard for Don. So sad.

However, his other tweet - I hope he is not referring to Glenn. Of course most people are calling him a "class act" for his forgiveness. If it is regarding Glenn, it pisses me off as he is again talking trash about a man who is dead and can not defend himself or his reputation. Almost 17 years later and he can not let it be. I like Don but it is stuff like this that shows another side to him and makes him look petty and mean and also show a side to him that perhaps only his fellow band mates saw.

I'm just going to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume the post upthread is not about Glenn.

Regarding the tweet about Tom Petty, I bet it is indeed hard for Felder. I had forgotten about their connection until I read this. A real blow, I'm sure.
