Wow. Hope he finds that peaceful easy feeling on the other side.

Anyone else remember him guest-starring on an episode of Miami Vice?

Oh damn...really? I haven't been getting my normal fill of news, this is the first I've heard of Frey passing. Damn.  RIP bro, thanks for all the great music.

I got sick of my job, sick of my wife
Sick of my future and sick of my life
I packed up my car and I got some gas
And told everybody they could kiss my ass

I'm goin' to Partytown

The literal soundtrack to my first divorce

Rest easy man and thanks for the music.
"I must not fear.
    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."  - Frank Herbert

Dammit, another one gone. This year is not off to a good start. I remember when he and Debbie Harry starred in a season of Wiseguy. RIP.

I might catch shit for it, but I wasn't ever much of an Eagles fan. Glenn Frey's solo career, OTOH, I enjoyed greatly. I thought the Eagles were way, way overplayed on the radio and got so sick of some of their songs...especially Hotel California.

Still, they did have a few good songs. I just didn't really notice until Frey took off on his own.
