Felder's "Heaven and Hell" Discussion Thread

[Mrs Frey]

MF you are so right! I did not even think of "Get Over It".

You probably had the lyrics settled in your subconscious mind, Samo! How appropriate they are!

Thanks for that link. My impression is that he is starting to try and redeem himself from the rift he has created with Don and Glenn, but, man, it is way too late for that.

I've posted a link on DFO. Thanks, Nancy!

As I was getting ready to leave for Virginia Tuesday morning, one of our local radio stations interviewed Don Felder.

The DJ's started off by introducing him as "the man who wrote the classic song, Hotel California".

Don referred to his relationship with Glenn and Don as "a current separation" and told the DJ's how he's still "reaching out to them but as of yet, he hasn't gotten any response back". (Insert here the DJ's tsks and "awww, that's a shame").

Hubby laughed at me for "talking back to the radio" and asked me if I wanted to "fire off an angry e-mail to the radio station".

I left the room before the interview was over.

So he didn't really mean all that nasty stuff he wrote about Glenn in the book, huh?

It would honestly have been better if he had stuck to the 'evil Gods' stuff because this sudden humility and 'reaching out' is not pleasant to watch.

He writes a book slamming the others guys. Wow, I cant imagine why they wouldnt want to best buds now. Can you believe his audacity? He may of already burned his bridges.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Yeah - I'm thinking that I probably wouldn't be very interested in mending fences with someone that sued me.

I can't believe that Felder has his lawyers sending letters to Glenn, Don, and Irving, and then he is shocked when they fire him.

Then, he files a lawsuit against them that drags on for years, and now, he doesn't understand why they don't want to patch things up.

Is this guy for real???? Is he really sincere about this or is it just a bunch of BS to make people feel sorry for him? I honestly don't know which scenario is scarier.

What's with this guy anyway?!?! "A current seperation"? Does he really think that there is any chance in heck he would get back into the band?

My message to Don F.: "Here's your sign" (a Bill Ingvall moment)

I think all his party-hardy times from the 70's has effected his mind

or is it just a bunch of BS to make people feel sorry for him? I honestly don't know which scenario is scarier.

I do! After the way he bashed them in the book, who does he think he's kidding?

And, did Felder contribute any of the lyrics to HC?

[Mrs Frey]

I'm sorry, but I find Felder and all your comments very amusing.

He must be desperate for publicity, or he has one or two screws loose.

[samo]

I have known people like him. They just don't get it. In their minds they have done nothing wrong and they just can understand why people don't like them or want them around anymore.
