Aw,damn! I had no idea he was sick! I went to a concert what was to be their last tour back in November 2013. Helped a roadie with unloading merchandise and got a free shirt out of the deal in Greensboro. They still had a final album to put out.:( All I can say aside form hoping his other fans, family and bandmates are able to stay strong in his sudden passing. Maybe that final album can come out still. Rest well, Glen.

On of the greats! He and Don were like the 70s' John and Paul.

This is sad. I saw the Eagles in Baltimore last year, and they were phenomenal. I feel so lucky that I saw them play in good health and high spirits. Glenn was one of the best guys on the show. He even made a jab at Ted Nugent and Disco, which was kind of funny. He will be missed.:tcry:

Another great music legend, what he and Henley created together I will always treasure, that's for sure, enjoy heaven Glenn.

I like some of Eagles' songs, but not exactly a die hard fan of them.

RIP

I thought I would share the statement made by his life-long best frienemy and song writing partner. Touching to read it knowing how close they worked together and all those hits they came up with 1972-1980 and beyond. I feel guilty for still wanting that final album they talked about.

Was never a huge fan of the Eagles, but they were and he remaining members are quite a talented bunch. This was my pops favorite band though, so they hold a special place for me. RIP Frey

Hotel California is my mother's all time favorite rock song, I believe. So yea, I was introduced to the Eagles pretty early.

Dear 2016 stop taking our Legends

Damn. "Witchy Woman" is one of my personal anthems. I love their music. He will be missed.

People close to Glenn believe the heavy amount of meds he was on due to his RA condition is what caused excessive ulcers and his bout with pneumonia that lead to his death.

Also, for any fan of the Eagles whether casual or big-time should check out History of The Eagles streaming on Netflix. It has been on there for about a year and a half now, but now is a good time to watch it if you all are interested. Its a bit extensive a 188 minutes though is full of information.
