Glenn Frey: Gone but not Forgotten

[NightMistBlue]

Oh yes, how wonderful - a "Second Line" celebration. I imagine that's what Azoff and the Eagles (and friends) will be aiming for with Glenn's memorial, if it turns out to be a concert.

I agree about a new thread. I had already talked to some of the moderators about doing this, but we were worried it was too soon.

I've been waiting for Cameron Crowe and from his recent tweets it was obvious he was working on it. He paints a vivid picture.

And to add to the music and autobigraphy we won't get to hear, there's the recurring role in Roadies that I'd been hoping for since I first read about the project.

Not to mention Kauai Five-0. Had Glenn said he was considering writing his autobiography? I know at one time he had wanted to write a book on songwriting.

I believe that Glenn mentioned it in the 2nd episode of the Tavis Smiley show he did in 2012 while promoting After Hours. He was talking about trying to type it on the computer, and failing to do so. He ended up using a legal pad like he had done for so many years.

I think that a celebration of life type thread is a good idea, but imo, it should wait until after the memorial service.

Whenever you think is the right time is good.

Meanwhile BBC Radio 4's obituary series, Last Word features Glenn. I missed the start but it will be available to listen again for the next few weeks. Some nice audio clips but unfortunately the last three songs they played had Don Henley on lead vocals. I see that they also feature Haskell Wexler who filmed the 1977 footage shown in the doc. He died on 27th December.

Maybe rename the thread "Glenn Frey - Gone but not Forgotten"?

I like this one best.

Thanks everyone for your comments. Even though they make me cry, it does help to know there are lots of others that are affected. My husband has been very supportive.

AG, I'm sorry for what your mother said. Glad it's helping to come here.

ETA: I've been listening to Glenn's tribute on I Heart radio and I wish they would just feature Glenn's vocals instead of the whole bands too.

Fastlane also posted a lengthy statement from Bernie. Ya'll mightwant some tissues for it. I just read what Joe said, and I think that it sums it well.

I read a statement from Bernie in the Lefsetz mailbag. Is that the one they posted? I'll definitely check it out if it's a different one.

No, it's that one.
