Felder Speaks for Autism

Feldautism2 My weekly perusal of WireImage led me to some really nice photos of Don at the Autism Speaks Golf tournament held on Monday of this week. Viewers of The Apprentice will remember this charity as the one Randall worked with in his final task last season. It's a great organization, so make sure to check out their website.

Blog and Roll

You may have noticed some slight changes on the site. I've been learning a lot about Blogs and what they can and can't do, and I'm working to keep this site up-to-date with the latest technology trends, while still keeping it fun and informative. Typepad, the company that provides us with this amazing blog, has unveiled some fun new toys and is planning a major design overhaul in the next few months. I've added a couple of the "widgets" to the site.

If you look down and to the left, you'll notice a box containing the Top 5 Links. These are the parts of our site that are currently getting the most hits. Since the entire purpose of this site is to build community, we think it's kind of fun to see what everyone is interested in. We also get a much more detailed stat report so that we can see exactly what people searched for to get to the site and where they went when they left. This will help us plan future updates.

Now, if you look down and to the right, you'll see a place for you to enter your e-mail address. When you subscribe, you'll get a daily e-mail with all of the page updates for that day. This is a convenient way to get all of your Eagles news delivered.

We hope you like these new tools. Look forward to some more in the future.

More Gang Dates!

Let's Get Glenn Nominated

Thanks to Paige for the heads up on this. Michigan has started a walk of fame to honor native Michiganers (ites?) who have made significant contributions to the state or nation. Glenn, so far is not nominated. People can nominate Glenn on this page. After you nominate him, please leave a message here in the blog so we can keep track of how many nominations come from this site. While non-Michigan residents can participate, It's probably more significant if the votes come from actual Michigan residents, so if you know anyone there, please encourage them to do so as well.

Henley video

As promised, we're adding some video to the Don site this weekend. There are a few clips there now for your viewing pleasure.

Another Gang Date

Thanks to Toonlass for the heads up on this. The James Gang will be playing the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, South Dakota on August 10th. There's a nice write up in the Rapid City newspaper. Tickets and rally passes can be purchased on the Buffalo Chip website.

A James Gang Date!

While Ticketmaster doesn't give a date for ticket sales, it is listing the James Gang as playing at Gibson Amphitheatre (formerly the Universal Amphitheatre) on September 5th.  Hopefully more dates will be available soon.  Thanks Sandy for the heads-up.

Australian News Clips

Sunglasses_1Julie sent us a DVD with some amazing and rare news footage of the band. We hope that you enjoy these things as much as we do.

Clip 1 is a discussion of nostaligia acts that features some great live footage.

Clip 2 features more live performances and some interviews (most notably, Don yelling in an odd way).Peas

Clip 3 features more interview footage.

Clip 4 is our favorite. Not only does it feature THE ENTIRE BAND sitting on a sectional couch and live footage of Glenn's sunglasses shirt, but it is (to our knowledge) the only photographic evidence of the t-shirt Don wore at the HFO Little Rock concert. It has to be seen to be believed.Joe

There are also two more recent clips from the band's Farewell I appearances in Australia.

Clip 5 has footage of the Australian press conference

Clip 6 is an extended story of the flap made over some Couchcomments Don and Joe made about Australian Idol.

All in all these are great. Thanks again to Julie for making them available.

The Gang at the Rocks

The rumors of the James Gang tour are starting to get a little more solid. Rocky Mountain News music reporter, Mark Brown (who is always one of the first w/ Eagles info), says that the James Gang will play Red Rocks in Denver this summer. Read through to the bottom of this article to see it in print. Thanks Colomick for the heads-up.

Archives and Updates

I've just spent the last several hours archiving everything on the site from the past 7 or 8 months. In case you are new around here, our archives are where we try to organize everything that's been posted on the site (over 10 years worth of stuff). You can browse through the archives anytime you want.

I've also brought the 2006 TourBlog up-to-date. I'll be working on the Henley FAQ and Eagles FAQ next, so if you have questions, please send them in.
