He is insatiably greedy - he led the Eagles to break the $100 ticket barrier when most bands were still around $60. He was a jackass for running Don Felder out of the band (over money). To be fair, Fry had a hand in this too. He is “Mr. Lawsuit”, even going so far as to attempt to sue for royalties on the sale of used CDs. Im sure there’s more, but these are just the ones I know of off the top of my head....

As always, great post @Butcher . Don Henley is quite high on my list as well....

I came up with the idea for this discussion after watching a fun/interesting/sad documentary on The Bee Gees the other night. I think we can all agree that there have been some first-class douche bags in music history, for a variety of reasons, so throw out your (least) favorite individuals here! I christen the thread with none other than Steve Dahl, the mastermind of the “the disco demolition night” on July 12th, 1979. I had heard briefly about this event, but until I watched the documentary, I had never heard of Dahl. After doing a bit of research, I came to the pretty quick con

Barry Gibb of The Bee Gees has released a collection of country duets with a plethora of huge names. The album is quite good, and if you get the “target exclusive” version, you’ll get two bonus tracks:-) https://www.target.com/p/barry-gibb-greenfields-the-gibb-brothers-songbook-vol-1-target-exclusive-cd/-/A-81880913

Is that the back of @Charlie system...?

While I’m admittedly not as old as many of you here, every once in a while I come across something that really makes me feel OLD... Case in point, NPR’s list of the top 100 songs of 2020. Now I’ve always thought of NPR as a bit dull, or even stodgy - after all, they ARE public ally funded, and therefor should at least attempt to steer clear of offending any large swaths of the populace. How wrong I am... Topping the list of the best of 2020 is the artistic masterpiece “WAP” - I shit you not. This is the song NPR says is THE BEST of 2020. For a moment, I thought maybe it’s place o

Great Zepplin photo!

Another of my favorite off-beat Mel Gibson films is Get The Gringo. This movie is part drama, part action flick, with a healthy dose of dark comedy, and just a splash of love story. Im not usually a fan of narration (it’s usually a crutch to fill-in plot gaps in a troublesome script), but Mel’s narration in this film is sardonic smart-assery that is at time laugh out loud funny. The story is a fun ride, and a twist at the end is the icing on the cake. And the sound track is wonderful!
