Rest in Peace, Glen Frey...

Sad day for the music. Some of my best memories from my youth have the Eagles soundtrack in the background.  I saw them a few years ago at the Verizon Center in DC  and they were great! Rest in peace.

It used to be, "It's so sad to see the old folks passing..." 

Now it's, "Hey! That guy is too young to go!" 

      confused
