EDIT: note to moderators--perhaps a new thread for this kind of information/news can be posted under "Eagles Guests" ?

Okay, thanks for the info. Good to know!

Good question and one I hadn't really thought about, but I think since this is a Don interview, his press thread is the appropriate place. We can just do it by who's in it. If it's Vince Gill or Deacon Frey getting interviewed, then it gets put in the "Guest" forum.
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Interesting feature including various Eagles about the music they were doing before they were famous.

Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Wow, thanks for the article Philh. With the exception of Randy's "You Send Me", I hadn't heard any of these before, even though I knew they were out there. That doesn't sound like Don Henley at all, lol! I guess the writer forgot about Joe and the Measles, or maybe couldn't find enough about them.

I loved every pre-Eagles track. Seems like their primary influences were Beatles and Byrds.
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
That was really interesting - and yeah, Glenn's voice on that sounds so weird if I hadn't been told it was him, I wouldn't have recognized it. I blame Bob Seger!
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Just saw not only are the Eagles with Vince and Deacon going to be playing the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville on October 29th, but they're getting a limited Eagles station on Sirius XM in November and will broadcast the Opry performance and more. It's big they're playing the Opry as it's usually only for those in the country music scene and shows how they've played a part in country music.

WSMonline.com always airs the Opry live, so hopefully this will also be the case for those of us who do not get Sirius. Many rock stars have played the Grand Ole Opry. There are two shows each Saturday, with guests usually performing 1 or 2 songs on each, but some only play on one show; as I would guess would be the case. There's not really a bad seat, and they (used to anyway) let you walk up to the stage and take a picture.
As Vince is a member, he will likely be hosting the segment on which they appear. It's a shame it doesn't air on GAC/CMT anymore.
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
I have Sirius, but yes, WSM always airs the Opry on their website. I'd love to go, since I'm only 2 hours from Nashville, but I don't see it happening. I'm sure it will be a great show. Something about the atmosphere at the Opry House seems to bring out the best in artists. I'm equally certain there will be a LOT of Eagles fans in the house.
It's really a wonderful tribute to the whole band, and their body of work. Many, many country artists are huge Eagles fans and they will receive a warm welcome from the audience and other artists alike.
