I mentioned in another thread that Stevie talked to Don on 9/11 from New York and also over the next couple of days. Here is something she shared in her journals on
her website that I thought was touching:
=============================
September 18th, 2001
Tuesday Morning
Washington, D.C.
4:15 a.m.
We just came in from Columbus, OH. Today was a very bad day for me. It’s almost too much for me to bear out here… I called my Mom, and I called my friend, Don Henley for a pep talk. Don says, the Eagles are recording but it is very hard now. At first he said, “Just come home, honey”, but after a minute, he said, “Are people coming to the shows?” I said, “Yes.” The he said, “Well, Stevie, if you can gut it out, and make people happy for a minute, then try and stay out there.” I heard him….

So we did the show tonight in Columbus, and it was good, love conquers all, people were happy –
I just have to hang on…
Thank you God, Mom & Don for getting me through this day ~
