I saw them open for the Stones 1975 or so. I was a medical volunteer. Free admission and nobody freaked out. So no work.
Do you know that Don Henley does an occasional show in his hometown Linden?
The Eagles are definitely in my top five all-time bands. Saw them on their History of the Eagles tour in Houston in 2014. So glad that I got to see them before Glen Frey's passing.
Anybody here ever heard of Indian Princesses? Its a YMCA program for Fathers/Daughters in elementary school. Meet once a month, make beaded neckaces and other crafts, then go on a couple of campouts a year - a great bonding thing. A little awkward that first campout - the dads don't know each other, making small talk, etc. Then the rumors started spreading - a couple of campfires over, a guy had grabbed a guitar to entertain the kids and was actually really good. Turned out it was Don Henley. I don't know anything about him besides his music, but I give him credit for investing time in his daughter.
I think he lives in Dallas or Highland park, keeps a house in Linden. I used to have inlaws in the area.
Not the same not seeing him up there as they news on their tour this yr., they still did a good job
Hook'em
They came and played memorial stadium in the spring of 94. Hell freezes over tour. They used our locker room as a dressing room. They asked a group of us on the team to be "security" back stage. "Allegedly" a pair of Don Henley's drum sticks went missing. I have no idea where they went......
