RIP, Glenn Frey.

R I P Glen Frey  [e digicons]:'([/e]

Yes, another sad day for music as another great singer and musician passes on.    R.I.P. Glen Frey.

Went out for a meal at the local footy club this evening with Shaunna and Steve, and much of the night they were playing Glen Frey and the Eagles as background music.  'Twas a good night.  Not only was the meal fantastic, the music was top notch and most satisfying.  No matter what, Glen Frey will live on in the great music he gave us.

I know how you feel Junior and I agree with what your saying.  All the people I grew up watching and listening to are leaving this earth.  My turn is coming and I hope it won't be for a while.  R.I.P. Glen.

RIP Glenn. Being 63 all these people dying lately is making me check my mirrors for what's creeping up behind. Lemmy and Bowie. Also 2 drummers. Dallas Taylor and Dale Griffin just passed. I suppose it's the age group. The Baby Boomers. RIP to them all.

So true.  It's the way of it that when we're young we can't know better, but the fact that we know better now, and can reflect and try to do better, is proof that we learned something in spite of ourselves. 

I've always really liked the Eagles' music.  They, as a group, became more reflective with age as well.  I thank them especially for songs like "It's your world now".

I look back on my life and often wish I had done things differently, especially when it comes to people I inadvertantly or foolishly hurt. One in particular, a former g/f, I would dearly love the opportunity to apologise to for sometimes being a complete dickhead while we were together.  I don't know that I'll ever get that chance, and I certainly can't turn back time to edit out those foolish and hurtful things, which is why I try to use my experience of life to do so much better and avoid hurting others.

Maybe I'm a better person today for having made mistakes and learnt from them, but it still doesn't stop me from wishing I could take them all back, so you're not alone in your thinking, JC, and the passing of all these musicians of late has made me realise that we're only on this Earth for the blink of an eye and time is too short not to love thy neighbour, friends and family.

Thanks, mate, though it seems we're pretty much on the same page, not only in our taste in music, but also in our thoughts on life and past mistakes, wanting to do better.

Mind you, I still don't like bankers, hehe.
