From watching a few documentaries it seems Frey was a pretty opinionated guy that would be hard to hang around. Felder seemed like a guy that was just there to get his paycheck. That's a bad combination.

I watched the eagles documentary. Part 1 was great and reminds you of how fantastic they were. Part 2 was depressing as hell. It’s a reminder that Henley and Frey were fantastic pieces of shite towards the end.

Leadon appeared on the History of the Eagles tour. Meisner would have but his health is in bad shape. Felder - no chance.

Not in my opinion he wasn't until the very end. He went from being a "founding member" to a hired hand when the band reformed and I don't think he liked it; IMO I wouldn't have either.

I agree. I should have said this is how Frey seemed to view him. Seemed like it started pretty close to when they broke up.

Felder is a great guitar player.

I don't disagree, but the final straw for the Eagles was when they did a charity event for a politician.

Felder was pissed that he had to do this for free. He didn't give a shite about politics. This rubbed Frey the wrong way. His guitar playing abilities are not in question.

Both Don and Glen fired Felder from the band in Feb of 2001.
It was reported Henley threw out a concert goer in 2015 for screaming Felders name from the front row at the show.

Yeah I'm not high on Chicago now and I love them. I hate that Champlin is not in anymore and Scheff was passable but his vocals suffered the past few years.

The only thing I enjoyed on Chicago's setlist this fall was they were playing album cuts from the first four studio albums - stuff they haven't played in over 40 + years and on some shows Chicago II from start to finish.

Not really.....Felder wasn't into politics at all. Henley & Frey are way left leaning types and Felder really didn't give a shite.

Heard a couple of songs from the Roman show they did for SiriusXM. I thought they sounded great.

I don’t know if this is true, but I heard that Deacons first concert performance in his life was his first show with the Eagles. That’s wild.
