Playing with the new Mac

Well, we've finally done it. We pooled our Christmas/early tax refund money and bought a Mac. We're anxious to see what we can do with it. We finally could do something with these files. They're tiny, but fun. This one is holiday appropriate and this one is a rarity.

Speaking of our new little Mac Mini (which we've christened Mac St. John), is there a format you'd prefer we'd start doing video in? We can do .mpg, .mp4, .m4v and really don't know which is better. Sound off in the comments below.

Happy New Year!!!

.

Wow! 2007 was a great year for fans of the Eagles and we know that 2008 will be even better. We're working on something special as a retrospective of 2007 and hope to have that up for you in a day or two.  For now, though, let's start the year off right.

Head over to our e2k: The Eaglennium Page to relive the night the band played on New Years Eve. Did y'all notice that in Felder's book he mentions that the "fans" referred to that night as the Eaglennium. Yeah, we sure did, Don. Make sure you check out the video that was broadcast live on CNN: Funky New Year, Hotel California and Auld Lang Syne .

Watch Glenn Online

Jamie let us know that MSN is streaming the episode of Miami Vice that Glenn guest-starred in. Pretty cool. By the way, did you know that the writers of television episodes that are streamed online (like this one) receive no residuals on these "repeats"? That's an issue in the current writer's strike. Head to United Hollywood for more information if you enjoy watching television content online.

Eden continues to do well

Long Road Out of Eden is still selling very well, especially in Australia!  Undercover reports the album has sold almost 150,000 copies in Australia.  Wow!  More details can be found here, along with some interesting speculation about 2008 tour dates.

Music Connection

Barbara let us know that the new issue of Music Connection has an interview with Glenn Frey in it.  It seems to be an expanded version of the interview that was in the Denver Post a few weeks ago so there isn't much new information, but it's always great to see an Eagles interview.

Boxing Day Treat

For some the holiday season isn't quite over yet so we have a little gift for you.  Austin shared with us this rare treat of Don Henley being interviewed on the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1985.  It's a big file, but well worth it.  Enjoy!

Happy Holidays!!!!

We want to wish all of our site visitors a very happy holiday season full of family, friends and fun. This has been an amazing year here on this site and it's times like these that make us very grateful for all of you. Can you believe that there is a new Eagles album available to be put in stockings this year? Amazing!

Have a safe and happy holiday!

Joe on Larry King

As promised, here are the video clips of Joe Walsh on Larry King Live. Joe was asked to speak about the death of Dan Fogelberg. This is the entire piece as it was difficult to isolate Joe's parts and also, because the entire story carries an important message.

CCUSA

We've got the clips from Country Countdown USA for you. We did have to record these with an external mic and we slipped up a few times so you can kind of hear us talking. I think you can hear me asking if anyone knows where a scissors is and at one point Lisa talks to the dogs. It's minimal, though. So, enjoy Joe and Glenn.

A few More Things

Beginning in January VH1 Classic will air a new series called Classic 60 Minutes.  The press release promises the Eagles will be one of the bands covered on the series.  Here's some more info from the press release:

CBS News correspondent Lara Logan will host the new half-hour series featuring past "60 MINUTES" interviews expanded with never-before-seen footage and conversations. "Classic 60 MINUTES" will provide viewers with an intimate snapshot of their favorite artists complete with in-depth details and insights as well as an update from Logan on recent news about these icons.

In other news.......the Hotel California album is checking into the Grammy Hall of Fame, it was announced today.

And, while we were posting this, a Google alert came in with a new Henley interview done with the AP. It's basically about the relationship between the band and country music. It does mention that Busy Being Fabulous will be released "next month".
