Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween guys! On this night of ghouls, we've managed to escape relatively unharmed - except that a ghost has taken over The Border!

It's perfect night to play Somebody off of Long Road Out of Eden. There's a jack-o-lantern moon in the midnight sky...

New Eagles Album Released Today - and Happy Birthday, Tim!

Well, it's the big day! October 30! The new Eagles album Long Road Out of Eden is available today at Walmart. You can also order the album off of the band's official website if you prefer.

Also, it's Timothy B. Schmit's 60th birthday. We're having an all-day celebration over at TimothyBSchmitOnline - check it out!

Exclusive Interviews and Clips on MSN

Maleah, the co-webmistress of DonHenleyOnline, discovered some exclusive interviews and clips on MSN.com. Enjoy!

Preview Long Road Out of Eden in Its Entirety

In our quest for more information about the new album, we found this site for Q104.3 New York Classic Rock radio station that is previewing all tracks from the new album from start to finish. If you just can't wait for the album's official release date, you definitely want to check this out. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. It is AWESOME!

Listen to some full tracks from Long Road Out of Eden

BBC's Radio 2 Music Club is putting up tracks from Long Road Out of Eden on its page. Right now you can listen to Somebody and Waiting in the Weeds here, and there are more to come.

The Music Club site also says that "Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmit from the band will also be joining Johnnie to talk about the new album on Sunday 24 November 2007, and later this week you'll be able to hear an exclusive clip from that new interview right here on the Music Club site."

There's tons of press coming out now, but I've been crazy busy this week. I'll put them up when I get a chance.

Capital Gold Long Road Out of Eden Preview

Guys, sorry for the confusion about the posting of the radio show yesterday. I (Nancy) just got back from out of town. We will not be posting it in MP3 form on this site.

It can be found in the Capital Gold archive by doing the following (click on the direction for illustration of step): 1) Go to the Capital Gold Player 2) Click on the middle tab that says "Listen Again". 3) You will see a menu on the right-hand side. Scroll down. 4) Select the option entitled "Last 7 Days: The Classic Album Show". It should play the entire show - 3 hours. The Eagles are the last hour. I presume this program will not be available after 7 days past the air date, so listen to it while you can. Then, prepare to buy the album which at that point will be on the verge of release!

My thanks to the folks who tried to record this and send it to me, though, and the folks who tried to upload it themselves in order to share it. Your efforts are appreciated.

New clips on Walmart site!

Maleah from DHO spotted the fact that there are different clips than we've heard before on the Walmart site. The new clips are from What Do I Do With My Heart and Busy Being Fabulous. It looks like the ones we've heard before are finally working on there, too.

And - a concert review from the LA Times!

Photos from the Nokia show already on the wire!

Check out some photos courtesy of Yahoo News - thanks for the link, Michaela!

There are also some photos from the show with this article about the venue's opening - we have Annett to thank for that link.

Three high quality Nokia Opening Photos!

Ah, the Eagles are playing tonight at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles! I'm sure they'll play some new material. How exciting!

These photos of the Nokia Theater ribbon-cutting ceremony are courtesy of Kara. Click on the thumbnail to see the larger photo. Caution: they're huge!

Long Road Out of Eden Preview on the UK's Capital Gold!

Kate, webmistress of DFO, heard this announced on the radio today.

A radio station in the UK called Capital Gold will be doing a four-part series on Long Road Out of Eden starting this Sunday.

And look at this description!

==========

Nicky Horne recently spent four days in LA with the legendary band The Eagles. He had exclusive access to the iconic rock band as they rehearsed for their forthcoming shows in Los Angeles and London. They talked about the brand new album (a 2 disc set featuring 20 songs) 'The Long Road Out of Eden' - The Eagles' first studio album for nearly 30 years!

[...]

Gold has been given unprecedented access to the band which means that the documentary ‘The Long Road Out Of Eden’ will play every track on the album for the first time anywhere in the world!

==========

Holy crap!!

The times are:

Sunday October 21 from 6pm: Part 1 of ‘The Long Road Out Of Eden’

Monday October 22, Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 from 7pm: Parts 2, 3 and 4 of ‘The Long Road Out Of Eden’

Note: Keep in mind these are UK times.

You'll be able to listen to it here.

Don Henley interviewed on BBC

On this great BBC interview, Henley talks more about the album. We also get to hear more of Long Road Out of Eden as well as snatches of Frail Grasp on the Big Picture, No More Walks in the Woods, and It's Your World Now. So exciting!

Eagles Official Site Redesigned

Wowser, check out the new look of the official site and its new photos! Cool!

Edited to add: The official MySpace has also been redone.

New Billboard Review

Check it out - Billboard.com has another article about Long Road Out of Eden. It includes some repeats from the Q&As, but also some new stuff. See article here.

Additionally, according to the official site, Long Road Out of Eden is #1 on the UK pre-order charts, and "How Long" is on the "Radio 2 A List" - whatever that means.

Billboard Articles....some mind-blowing news!

There is an interview with Glenn Frey and an interview with Don Henley on Billboard.com with tons of fascinating new information about the album.

Apparently the guys are pretty internet savvy! Henley signs on every day and they are e-mailing MP3s to each other. They also say a lot about collaborating with each other, the content of the album - it's great stuff.

Another one of these facts is that Glenn was inspired to record How Long when his kids saw the video on YouTube. Guess who put that on YouTube, the one and only time it was there? I'm gonna admit it. It was yours truly, Miss Nancy Kerns, just an ordinary average girl who lives in Indiana, and yet...

SO FREAKING COOL.

Lots of News!

Look what happens when I go out of town for a few days to present at a conference in Kansas City!

According to USA Today, there is a 90% chance the Eagles will play at the Superbowl!

Bob Lefstez continues to give more information about the Eagles album. This blog entry discusses Waiting in the Weeds, and this blog entry discusses the song Long Road Out of Eden, among other things. Lyrics are also included.

The Eagles are playing an exclusive gig in London on Halloween according to The Times Online.

Eagles on Amazon UK

Long Road Out Of Eden is avaible for pre-order on Amazon.co.k, with a free download of How Long. Got to be good!

Effusively Positive Review from Lefstez

If you're on Lefsetz's listserv, you've probably already seen this item, but just in case you're not, Lefstez posted an absolutely glowing review of the new album - or at least its first few songs. Apparently he hasn't listened to the whole album yet, but what he heard excited him so he had to shoot off this e-mail. The webmistress of DonHenleyOnline posted it on The Border if you want to read it. (It also includes lyrics from Busy Being Fabulous!)

Two more clips on Eagles Official Site

Clips of Long Road Out of Eden and I Don't Want to Hear Any More are now on the Eagles Official Site's player. They're also different from the ones previously posted.

New Clip of Last Good Time in Town on Eagles MySpace

A clip of Joe's Last Good Time in Town has been posted on The Official Eagles MySpace. It is also on the Official Site's player (after How Long). It's actually different from the one I posted earlier so I'll keep that one up as well.

Three New Song Clips Available for Download

OK. so I was finally able to hear them, and to alleviate the immense frustration of those who are unable to access them, I am temporarily putting them on my server until Walmart solves its problems.

I Don't Want to Hear Any More Clip (Tim song)
Long Road Out of Eden Clip (instrumental part of Don song)
Last Good Time in Town Clip (Joe song)

Enjoy!

Preview for Certain Songs on Walmart.com!

The clips keep comin'! Check out a clip of the Last Good Time in Town, I Don't Want to Hear Any More, and Long Road Out of Eden on Walmart.com! (Note: I can't access them - I just get the "tracks not available" message. Hope you have better luck).
