Timothy in the Press/Blogs/etc.

Great finds! Thanks Koala!

Hmm, I always thought Tim started adding "B" to his name on his releases when he joined the Eagles but he says he decided to go by "Timothy B. Schmit" in high school here.

This is not the first time Timothy has said about starting to use the B in high school. See the post here:

Duh me! Looks like I had a brain fart.

Me and Timothy have something in common.... we both turn Hotel California off when it comes on the radio, "it's so overplayed". I knew I was right!!

Tim's comment made me laugh, too.

Thanks for posting this, this really put a smile on my face today!

And thanks from me, Koala.

Well - thanks from me too. Koala! They were fun to listen to except I almost choked when the woman interviewer didn't know that the Eagles were back together. She seems to have done some homework and was knowledgeable about some stuff, but good grief - how could she have missed that!!! I guess she must have been pretty embarrassed about that. Wonder if Timothy was as gracious off air as he was on.

But remember Willie - he said later that he was allowed to turn it off, but no one else was!

Don't know if I like it whenever he makes statements like, "I know my place in the band". I know it's true and they all have their place but for some reason, that always seems to rub me the wrong way a bit.

I know exactly what you mean. I don't like it when any of the guys seem to undermine their roles in the band either. I know they are trying to be modest, but they can be gracious and still take credit where credit is due. I just keep telling myself if they are happy with the band the ways things are, then I guess we fans should be happy too - or at least grateful. I mean I certainly am very glad that all the members seem to be content enough these days to keep the band going for a while longer that's for sure!

I never turn off "Hotel California" If they want to play it, I'll listen to it. I never get tired of that song.

I also hate when Tim does this. He is a full member of that band, & the Eagles wouldn't be the same without him. I know he's being modest & not wanting to take credit for anything that was from Randy's time in the band, but he's in the Eagles since 1977. To imply that he's a lesser member of the band kind of upsets me. I know he doesn't get as much songwriting credits as Glenn & Don, but Tim plays a major role in the singing in the Eagles. It just kind of hurts to hear him say things like that.
