He threatened to sue when they thought about continuing to go on without him in the early 90s, and he'd said things like "I started it; I ended it" when talking about the band. That's why I call BS on "He would have wanted us to keep going."
Even if that were true, though, the basic fact remains the same: without Glenn Frey's voice, without his artistic contribution, that band is not really the Eagles. It's three guys who used to be in the Eagles singing with Vince Gill and Glenn's son.
I feel the same, except I know I won't change my mind about these shows. Maybe one day I'll want to go to a solo show again... but never one of these shows.
