Re: Hello from Melbourne Australia
Welcome Jane!!! :D I agree with Tequila's post too and that was one of reasons I loved Glenn too. I grew up on their music (as my parents were fans) but as I got older and they reunited in the 90s I just gravitated towards Glenn.

I have been extremely fortunate to see Eagles live in concert four times in recent years. I enjoy other music but the Eagles have been my favourite band for four decades.
Glenn Frey was always my favourite - those smouldering good looks and lay back manner. I loved the lyrics to his music and the fact he loved his wife and family so much.
When he passed away in January, I was devastated. I felt like I had lost someone very close to me, who had shared my growing up years and helped me through them.
I have been grieving quietly on my own but so happy to have found this forum so I do not feel so alone now.
The information and knowledge that you all bring to this forum is amazing.
Thanks for letting me join you all.
Hi from Sydney, Jane. Your semtiments are lovely.
I saw Glenn at the Palais Theatre in 2013. I also went to one of the Farewell One shows at Rod Laver Arena in 2004.
Re: Hello from Melbourne Australia
Thanks again everyone for such a warm welcome. I am finding great comfort in the Eagles music especially at the moment as my mum is terminally ill.
At the age of 77 she is enjoying their music and is comforted by many of the songs - I tend to play her the more peaceful tracks when she is not feeling great.
"Peaceful easy feeling" is her favourite at the moment.
