Almost a month ago, on a business trip I had to drive through the town of Winslow, Arizona and you'll never guess what I saw. After passing through the town, I continued driving along the road in my rental car and I couldn't get "the song" out of my head. So when I made my next stop, I pulled into a record store and bought the Eagles double CD - The Very Best of the Eagles. I listened to the hit-packed CD's (all 33 songs) and have hardly stopped listening to them since. To be honest, I hadn't thought a lot about the Eagles much recently, but listening to these songs brought back a ton of memories. One night back at home, I decided to "surf the net" to check out to see what the band has been up to lately. I found a lot of information, including information about your band contest. When I checked out your web site, I got really excited to see how well the band was doing in your contest. Anyway, I thought the timing of all this was interesting and I really hope they win. They deserve it - they wrote and sang the songs that pretty much defined my generation and these songs still connect today. Take It Easy!
