Hello Everyone,
I started this little thread because I posted the news of my health issues on the "Glenn Gone but Not Forgotten" thread. It did not seem right to go on posting there so here is a...
I accept the hug with thanks and may well take you up on our offer of PM-ing at some point. Somehow it is often easier to talk online than with my very concerned friends and family who are feeing...
Thank you. I wrote a little coda to my original post that says it all.

I love that story of your mom's friend. Here in the UK, they tend towards presenting the gloomy outlook. I need American optimism so am collecting stories like that. I was glad to hear she maintained...
Soda that is the most extraordinarily beautiful dream - full of hope and light. I believe that your higher, wiser self was reassuring you that the end as we know it might not be that at all. I am not...
What a great article S.S . Funny and perceptive. Yes, when does the Dude cease to be cool? And how right you are about Glenn Frey's sex appeal. As I often say "he was a man's man who loved women."...
Re the "painter" question: thanks everyone for confirming what I thought. I was having a hard time imagining Glenn in front of a canvas. As for the rest of the band and UTW's post that "Joe is...
Hello again everyone. I've been moving house and have been a bit out of touch but was happy to see all the lovely photos that you have been posting. And to hear about the bittersweet journey to...
I am sure most of you have seen this piece that "The Guardian" dug out after Glenn's death. http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/sep/24/eagles-1974-interview-rocks-backpages-crawdaddy-magazine. It's...
UTW - Funny coincidence - I read the Bill Simmons piece just yesterday and sent it to the 'obsessed-ex' in BC. It's a great piece of writing - very funny and frank...
And yes I'm an obsessive too....
Thanks to you all for your welcome - and to NightMistBlue for your kind words.
Yes, UTW, I have decided to come back and visit you all from time to time. I find wonderful photos and all sorts of...
Hello,
I'm one of the newer visitors who came here after Glenn's death. Many of you wrote to me about my tribute to him - from my point of view as someone who writes on classical music and opera...
Ah yes, things have gone quiet. I guess that's the way it will be from now on. This next link should be on videos etc It originated on this board so most of you probably know it but I revisited...
Thanks so much for that. I have a lot of catching up to do! I was touched in that interview to hear him say he wished Don Henley would write with him again. Quite an admission for a proud man, I...
Glad I prompted you to prompt me to find this show!! Thanks. It was good to hear him talking about Barnes. I was actually on a long, long walk by the Thames going through Barnes on the day he died...
Here in the UK, BBC radio recently ran an interview with Glenn from one of his many visits to England. He seemed to know our country well - he compared it and his life here in 1973 to "the first...
Hello,
I've been posting away on other threads but never realized I should introduce myself. Glenn's very sad death brought me here because I wanted to reach out to others who were, like me,...
Ah yes, this is the toughest, loneliest part, I think, because we all move on at a different rate - and truth be told - in many ways we don't want to move on. As I have said elsewhere "life wants...
Thank you for your kind words. Music is so powerful and healing . At first Glenn's music was tough to listen to but that will change with time. Because I don't want to repeat myself on several...
Sorry for the late reply. What I am noticing is how many people express how surprised/perplexed they are at their reaction to Glenn's death. Enjoy your music and DVDs. I'm guessing some more stuff...
My dear, I do not know you but what you said here is so heartfelt and so heartbreaking that I feel I want to say a few words to you. Yes, most of us here understand perfectly and, far from judging...
I agree with the disappointment some have expressed here at the lack of proper tribute in some of the music press. As a free-lance journalist who has written for music publications and national...
I, for one, am glad the banner is still up. My mother, who was a wise and wonderful woman, said of grief that often the hardest part is the quiet, still moment after the fiercest grieving is over....
A belated thank you. (I was travelling between the UK and Canada.) I am glad that I could share these sad, and in my case, surprising feelings. Warmest wishes to you.
I agree about that line. I am trying to remember where I saw it. Thanks for your kind words. Having a way with words is my job. But this time the words were written through a lot of tears. I hope I...
