Title: RIP Glenn Frey
Post by: sprite75 on January 18, 2016, 08:06:33 PM
2016 is sucking (http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/18/entertainment/glenn-frey-obit-feat/) so far.

Quote
(CNN)Glenn Frey, a founding member of the rock band the Eagles, has died at 67, a publicist for the band has confirmed.

"Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly, succumbed to complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis and pneumonia," reads a post on the band's official website.

Frey had been suffering from intestinal issues, which caused the postponement of the band's inclusion in the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors.

Frey and the other original members of the Eagles — Don Henley, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon -- came together to form singer Linda Ronstadt's backup band in the early 1970s.

Agreed: 2016 is a bad year thus far.

The Eagles have always been a classic group. Rest well, Mr. Glenn Frey.

After this was posted on January 3 of this year, we have lost this year so far . . .

Lemmy
Robert
Pat
Natalie
Angus
David
Dan
Alan
and Glenn.

That's almost 1 day. I hope that's a fluke, because if it continues like this for the rest of the year, there'll be no body left in Hollywood. And while the Ashley, who died, was not our Ashley, my heart still goes out to her family and friends. I can't think of anything hardly worst than hearing a loved one was a victim of murder. The only good news appears to be that Uwe has decided to hang it up. Yeah, right. Pull the other one.
