He'll have to go.

He'll have to go.

 

[I Should Coco]

LOL. Go listen to the Seagulls or something.



Or stare at Jennifer Connolly.

The Killers are still trying to make a song as good as "Space Age Love Song." They've come close.

Now you are just ****ing with us.

Jim Reeves on his worst day was 100 times the singer this dude was.

Then again, like who you like, I'm not gonna stop you.

Leadon was disillusioned with the direction the band's music was taking and his loss of creative control as their sound was moving from his preferred country to rock and roll.[34] His dissatisfaction, principally with Frey, boiled over one night when Frey was talking animatedly about the direction they should take next, and Leadon poured a beer over Frey's head, and said: "You need to chill out, man!"[35][36] On December 20, 1975, after months of denials, it was announced that Leadon had left the band.

On July 31, 1980, in Long Beach, California, tempers boiled over into what has been described as the "Long Night at Wrong Beach."[49][50] The animosity between Felder and Frey boiled over before the show began, when Felder said, "You're welcome – I guess" to California Senator Alan Cranston's wife as the politician was thanking the band backstage for performing a benefit for his reelection.[51] Frey and Felder spent the entire show telling each other about the beating each planned to administer backstage. "Only three more songs until I kick your ass, pal," Frey recalled Felder telling him near the end of the band's set.[52] Felder recalls Frey telling him during "Best of My Love," "I'm gonna kick your ass when we get off the stage."[49][53]

The Eagles begat Dave Matthews who begat Mumford & Sons and the Lumineers. There is always some act on the charts dressing up poppy hooks in a veneer of well-manicured rustic authenticity and selling out summer amphitheaters.

The Eagles begat Dave Matthews?

I'm not sure I see the connection.

The Eagles begat Dave Matthews?

I'm not sure I see the connection.

Not directly. Just that there's often rootsy laundry-folding music on the pop charts.
