Actually, none of that refers to what I was saying. I didn't say there weren't problems with the Eagles. I'm not that naive. I just said it was in poor taste to bring them up on the very day he died. And I still stand by that.
As it goes, you can walk from the OP in the Bowie thread to the last post, and there is not one person --- not one --- who has anything in the slightest way negative to say about him. Even those who don't know his music acknowledge what a legend he was. 100% positive.
