Oft times I think of him ...Lyrics are Henley's. Oft times I think of him as a major humorless douche. And for good reason. But when he got on stage with Mojo Nixon in San Diego and joined in on "Don Henley Must Die," I had to reassess. Perhaps he does have a sense of humor. <br /><br />I wonder if the chorus is any reference to the 16 year old girl he was fucking that went into cocaine convulsions in his hotel room back in the Eagles days.:-)<br /><br />Saw Dylan on this tour several times in Los Angeles and then in Vegas. He did a 3-night stand at the Wiltern to re-open the place after remodeling, or should I say, after they ripped the goddamned seats out. Larry Campbell and Charlie Sexton were in the band so we went to a bunch of shows. I go mainly for the bands these days. Too bad about the lead singer:-) Zim Zim covered a lot of songs on this tour, including a handful of Warren Zevon tunes, Neil Young, Buddy Holly and even "Brown Sugar":-) No "War Pigs" though :-)<br /><br />If you care about latter day Dylan and want a comprehensive document of the 2002 tour, try to find "A Voice From On High," a 3-CD set. It includes a complete 2002 show followed by all other songs in the sets performed on the tour.<br /><br />VR - what innocence?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-76314861169296027782017-07-12T14:04:32.660-04:002017-07-12T14:04:32.660-04:00Let's give Don Henley writing credit too, hate...Let's give Don Henley writing credit too, hate him or love him! ;)<br /><br />-PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
