Wow. That interview actually made me cry... and laugh, too.

Thanks for the link, UTW.

That was a great interview - he's definitely becoming more mellow and open as he gets older!

Thanks UTW for posting it.

Yep, thanks UTW! I'm glad that Don may work on a new album soon. I'm wondering if he'd do mostly original work w/ some covers thrown in. I know he's been mentioning this in interviews for the last few months. I listened to the Okkervil River version of TEOTI b/c it was talked about in the interview. Yeah, I don't want to say that it sucks, but I just didn't like the guy's voice. It's hard to top Don's voice, so there's that.

I like these full Q&A interviews, so we get all the words from the man himself rather than the author trying to add their own spin on things at times.

I haven't read an interview that was that in-depth in a long time. Glad to hear that Don will hopefully start on a new album sometime soon.

I LOVE this interview!!! - I just want to wrap him in cotton wool and preserve him forever

I really should pay more attention. I missed the seond half and it was only when people were commenting on things that I couldn't remember that I knew to go back to it. Good interview - it seems like Henley is getting over the shock and starting to look forward, which is the way it should be.

In the recent interview in the Montreal Gazette, Don says he is doing a show in Hawaii in October. This is not listed on his website. Is this a private show?

It's a really good interview, and I thought it was very interesting what Don said about Deacon. I never even considered the possibility of his standing in for Glenn.

Yep - I loved the interview. I am very excited about the idea of Don doing an R&B album. He seemed really open and reflective in the interview. I know he and the other guys must be doing a lot of reflection these days.

I have said repeatedly that I thought Deacon was the only acceptable alternative as a fill-in for Glenn at anytime in the future. I don't want to take this thread off topic though, so I commented in the Eagles forum.
