This one hit me really hard.  Saw them last time they were in Orlando in 2014.  Was looking forward to seeing them again soon.  Those days are gone.  Remember hearing LYIN' EYES on the radio in 1975, 10 years old, in Randy Beard's house, my next door neighbor, on a little transistor.  I was hooked from then on.  Pieces of yourself and childhood, wrapped up in other people and places, slowly leaving.  Tough.  God bless you Glenn, and thanks for all the great memories your talent created for me, and the rest of the world.  You will be missed.

I never saw them live but have been listening to them ever since my roommate in college brought home an album, "On the Boarder", from a band I hadn't heard of. Been hooked ever since. Many years later when they got back together and release the live, acoustic version of "Hotel California", hooked me all over again. One of the best recordings ever IMO. RIP Mr. Frey.

First time I heard Witchy Woman in a hotel room in Richmond around 1973.  Many memories thank you.

I saw them live on their final tour with the Long Run album. They came to Hawaii to play in the Aloha stadium. This a month before we were to move from Hawaii to Bremerton Washington for major ship overhaul.

“It's Your World Now”
Written by Glenn Frey and Jack Tempchin
From the Eagles’ Long Road Out of Eden album

A perfect day, the sun is sinkin’ low
As evening falls, the gentle breezes blow
The time we shared went by so fast
Just like a dream, we knew it couldn’t last
But I’d do it all again
If I could, somehow
But I must be leavin’ soon
It’s your world now

It’s your world now
My race is run
I’m moving on
Like the setting sun
No sad goodbyes
No tears allowed
You’ll be alright
It’s your world now

Even when we are apart
You’ll always be in my heart
When dark clouds appear in the sky
Remember true love never dies

But first a kiss, one glass of wine
Just one more dance while there’s still time
My one last wish: someday, you’ll see
How hard I tried and how much you meant to me

It’s your world now
Use well your time
Be part of something good
Leave something good behind
The curtain falls
I take my bow
That’s how it’s meant to be
It’s your world now
It’s your world now
It’s your world now

Hit me like a ton of bricks. I saw them when I was a punk ass college student in Austin, Tx in 1980 and again just last year here in Dallas. The concert in Dallas conjured so many memories. Every song they played was special to me. I know everyone else felt the same way. RIP Mr. Frey. 67 is way too young.

Saw them many times, the 1st time in 1970  they were not super famous yet & were play'n the local junior college for 4 bucks, we showed up early & were talkin to the roadies (about all the great weed they were smoking) Then the guy that played banjo Bernie (quit or was fired not long after that)
showed up & when he saw the venue wasn't even set up yet he said got pissed & said screw this & they canceled.
Then saw them in 72 at the LA forum with Yes & Poco. Saw them around 74 in Santa Barbara, then I saw the Hotel California tour in 77 with Joe Walsh in the LA forum. And I think I saw them at one of the Cal-jam shows (that one is pretty fuzzy  :rotflmao:)

Bernie Lynn(??) I believe, can't recall.
Timothy Schmit (??) from Poco joined the band and love the addition with Joe Walsh. Joe always looks like he's having the time of his life when he plays.
