JONEZY Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 There is a great documentary on Showtime about The Eagles. I learned a lot about this band. For starters, I never knew Don Henley and Glenn Frey used to be in the backing band for Linda Ronstadt. By the way, the interview footage with Linda is great, she was cute back in the day.Didn't know Glenn Frey and Don Felder were verbally fighting onstage in 1980(their last show). Also, Randy Meisner is a great singer, there is one song on there that I never heard before, its on their 2nd album I think. And Joe Walsh is a cool MO-FO!!One bad thing is I have all these Eagles songs stuck in my head. Don't get me wrong, their songs were great, but radio played them constantly over the years. I was sick of them. Still don't really care for them, but there is no denying how great they were.Joe Walsh for President!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 They didn't mention it in there, but about a decade ago, the DeLeo brothers from STP joined Joe Walsh for a handful of dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered some of my friends to check it out too. It really gave me a lot of insight into the situation with Felder as well. Near the end he seemed a bit regretful and sad about it. Glen seems icecold about the matter though, he's done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zint Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Was there anything about them being the band that kicked off the $500 per ticket bullshit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONEZY Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Was there anything about them being the band that kicked off the $500 per ticket bullshit?No, they didn't mention that, but I'm glad you did. In 1994 they were the band who raised ticket prices big time. I wanted to see them in 1994, but not at those prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
