Eagles memorabilia

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Sorry, but I think I'll have to pass on these - can't imagine stuffing any of these guys inside the others.

Well - I know I'm quoting myself here, but after reading Austin's comments in another thread about finding a Hotel California album to frame, I thought I would repost my story for him since he wasn't around when I originally posted this. Austin, I apologize if you have already read through this thread, but your post in the other thread reminded me of this. BTW - I love this thread, so it's probably worth reviving anyway. I would encourage any of you newer members to read through it and even share some of your own memorabilia with us.

Okay - I finally got around to taking a few pictures of one of my most prized pieces of Eagles memorabilia. I had a hard time photographing it without getting a glare, but you'll get the idea anyway. I was lucky enough to get the signed album in an auction, and then I had it framed and matted with the cover of the program from my very first Eagles concert. I thought I would represent the 30-year (at the time) career of the band, plus the colors worked. The pictures here really do not do it justice. Having it framed was an event all to itself because I would not leave the album with the store until they were ready to actually mount it. Therefore, every time they had to measure or center the album, they would have to call me to bring it to them. I spent hours going back and forth, choosing the framing, matting, and arrangement. It was worth every minute and penny though, and they ended up doing a beautiful job.

One other funny little anecdote about it - my computer room is a rather 'interesting' room with a collection of family heirlooms. However, it has also somehow evolved into a paradoxical Eagles/Glenn shrine. I had no choice but to hang the framed HC album right over my deceased, big band music-loving grandmother's formal Victorian sofa. The first time my niece saw this, she just shockingly shook her head and proclaimed "That's just wrong!"

WOW! Very cool Dreamer! I would LOVE to have a signed HC LP to frame!

As far as memorabilia of my own, all I have is an original Hotel California songbook that a guitar player buddy of mine gave me that he bought when it came out to learn how to play those songs. It's in rough shape but all pages are still pretty much intact. Just a lot of scuffs. I also have a program from the LROOE tour in 2008 when I saw them in Chicago on Sept. 25th. I have all of the CD's of course and all of the official videos and most of the unofficial videos.

Very cool dreamer! I know I've seen this before, but it's great to see again!

When I was in Los Angeles, I went into this small shop on Hollywood Boulevard called Star World and got some goodies. I'll be scanning them in for your enjoyment! They include:

- Press photos of Glenn
- Candid photos of Don (ETA: just one photo)
- The program from Don's MusiCares

Oooh can't wait to see those Soda especially the "candid" photo's of Don!

[sodascouts]

Well, one is arriving in the mail, so this is the only candid photo of Don I have to show you now! It was taken in 1978. The lady with him is actress Georganne LaPiere. Apparently he's not too happy to be photographed but at least it's a photo we haven't seen before!

These two publicity photos of Glenn from South of Sunset we've seen before, but not of this size and quality:





And pardon me but I feel the second photo calls for a close-up:
