    Every time I go into (or drive by) the Troubador, or the Bar Marmont, or the place where the Palomino used to be...

    Peneumbra - Did you hang out there in the late 60's early 70's when the guys did. If so, very cool ! Would love to hear some of your stories.

    Cool Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

    I seem to recall going to the Troubadour in maybe… I guess it was 1972. I got to know Doug (Weston), and he'd let me in even though he knew i was under age - thanks, Doug, wherever you may be.

    A lot of very interesting things - to put it mildly - took place at the Troubador; some of them even happened on stage. A certain member of this band, who shall remain nameless (rhymes with "High") referred to the whole scene as "The Days Of Lines And Noses."

    I have read a lot about it and sounds like it was a wild place. Glenn had so so thing from what I have read, to say about the Troubadour. How old were you then ? Was the legal age 18 or 21 ? Were you a roadie or did you just work for that one tour ?

    I was 18 when I started going to the Troubador; the legal age for clubs serving drinks was (and is) 21.

    I worked various Eagles tours through mid-1976. The money wasn't great, but I made up for it by going out in the audience during the encores and honing my pickpocket skills...

    As I was watching my favorite show called This Is Us, the family bought a car from a car dealership called Doug Henley(I forgot the rest of the name, but it was cool and surprising to see the name Henley.

    Brothers for life. RIP Glenn

    I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother. You did what you set out to do, and then some." -Don Henley

    So, there's this new car here that seems like everyone in my city bought it, it's a Jeep, model "Night Eagle"
    Every damn time I see that car around I'm like "ooohhhhh" smiling like an idiot

    I'm watching this movie right now and I just noticed this. I've been watching this movie for years and this is the first time I've noticed the On the Border tshirt. Very cool!
