What is wrong with the Eagles and why do I have fights with people?
Why do I have I mean, I guess I must be just I must be from here.
I don't know
There's there's one there and I only I defend the Eagles for
There's about a two-year period that I am interested genuinely interested in them and it's kind of from one of these nights
throughout Hotel [Gb] California and I am interested in the reaction the response to that record and how
How it was created the meaning behind it
More so than [F] maybe the music involved and why that record at that time became what it became
But tell me what all Joe Walsh he gets like a free pass for everything.
[G] He does his solo career
Just being Joe Walsh
He's cool.
[A] And like the other guy like the [G] fifth Eagle that wrote Hotel, [Gb] California
Can he remember his name, [C] you know, he's fine, too.
[Gb] So you get down to like Glenn Frey
Don Henley
It's basically these two.
Yes, can you [Gb] deal with these two and you know, like [Em] I I don't want them to come [A] after me now
You know, like I know they're [G] I think they're fine.
I [E] think they're cocooned.
It's [F] constant the Eagle
Okay, I don't think they're I mean I have some personal [Eb] information
About someone who [Ab] is married to one of them and stuff [Ab] for one
Look a lot of that a lot of that was detailed and what was the the LA madam [G] book that was published [F] and had terrible
stories about [Gb] Don and
And [Db] Glenn so I mean it's out there
[Ab] But and but you know, I know [Gb] that lady [N] too.
Yeah, but I just so
Well overall, it's just the sound I got in a lot.
There was an article in like slate magazine or salon
It's a online [E] magazine
Therefore [G] not a magazine and easy.
I don't know [Abm] what it is
And I they he pulled a quote like I hate the Eagles and like I first of all
I want to say [Eb] I don't hate the Eagles [Ab] like I hate you know [E] fascism or you know
[N] Murder, you know, I hate them like I hate like
mosquitoes like too many mosquitoes or like a horse flies when I was a kid, you know, or
You know, it's not I'm not saying hate like literally I don't really hate
I don't [G] have a picture of them with [Gb] like devil horns and I'm just like thinking about them all the time and help
[N] You know, I just I don't there's some [Ab]
kind of
Just in the peaceful easy feeling of
The peaceful easy feeling it's like a peaceful easy feeling of [G] money like or so [A] I just see dollar [Ab] bills
I see like
You [G] know rich hip greedy hippies or something, you know, [N] like there's these hippies from the 70s
they're mainly from this area code or there are hippies that
Are just cash hungry hippies, you know, like they're capitalist hippies or something
They're involved in the movie industry, you know, like worrying about
copyrights and and
Getting their stuff.
I know we all got a earn [Bb] a dollar here and stuff, [Ab] but there's something about the baby [G] boomer
[B] and
the ideal it's kind of represents
[Ab] these really
floundering
Images of baby boomer like Apple computers, maybe even more
Extreme in this way where it's like I'll
Think [G] like a hippie, but you know art, you know kind of [Gb] liberal
[Ab] mega [G] corporation with like selling
selling a
Liberal liberalism [F] or something?
[N] I don't know
Yeah, but hotel California seems to be such a despairing record and it seems to be at the
Hypothesis of baby boomer disillusionment.
Yeah, but okay
Let why not just like skip that record and listen to Steely Dan or some only, you know or something like where it's like the music
It's a really I know it's a New York guy come out here, but it's just the
Again, I feel like that's I sure, you know, you do too much coke and you see all these
you can be the one that's [Gb] like
[Bb] with the
Tequila bottle at the party kind of [Gb] sitting back and just [Eb] like looking at the
Above it or [Db] something, you know, I feel like they're I
Mean Steely Dan sounds like they're above it, but they didn't even bother going to the party, you know
They didn't even want to be there.
Right, you [Ab] know, they just wanted to be
[B] They didn't have to like bed the [Gb] best women [Ab] for two weeks and do all the drugs for ten years or whatever
you know, they knew coming in [Gb] they were just gonna like
Take them [Ab] down.
So well look, I mean, I don't [F] know particularly what's wrong with betting the best-looking women or doing drugs
[Ebm] Holding [G] the tequila [Eb] bottle at the party
And then and then becoming disillusioned [G] by it all and writing about it.
I [Ab] mean, I think there's something
I do think there's a kind [G] of honesty about that
I get everything else you say about [Gb] the Eagles and I do agree [B] with you
They are they're a [Gb] complicated band for me to [Fm] like and I do get into trouble with my friends who are you know
Why do I have I mean, I guess I must be just I must be from here.
