Long Road Out of Eden #2 on Billboard Country charts

Well, that appeal to country paid off. The Eagles are second only to Garth Brooks on the Billboard country chart this week, and Brooks' album was a Greatest Hits, so they are still the #1 album of completely new work after three weeks. Not bad, guys!

Christmas Wallpaper

Now that we're getting towards the holiday season, I decided to make a Christmas wallpaper. Here it is:

Happy Thanksgiving!

Whether or not one lives in an area that celebrates Thanksgiving today, I hope we can all find a moment to reflect on things in our lives for which we are thankful. It's good for the soul to take note of the positives when most of the time we fret about the negatives. Hope everyone has a great day!

Henley on CNN

You can find a video of Henley doing a brief interview with CNN Entertainment on CNN.com (as well as a longer, written version) and also on YouTube. Enjoy!

Long Road Out of Eden "Deluxe Collector's Edition" Available Nov. 20

According to the official site, on November 20, the Deluxe Collector's Edition of Long Road Out of Eden will be available for purchase at Walmart, walmart.com, Sam's Club, samsclub.com and eaglesband.com. The "deluxe" aspects of it: it contains the bonus tracks "Please Come Home For Christmas" and "Hole In The World", as well as a 40-page booklet with extra photos and desert scenes from the making of the "How Long" video. Hopefully these additional photos will include band members!

In other news, "How Long" is in the running for one of the top 50 videos of the Year on the GAC network. If you want it to win, you can vote for it here. The artists are listed in alphabetical order; however, you'll find the Eagles alphabetized under "T" for "The Eagles." How annoying - alphabetized not only by an article ("the"), but by an article which does not actually technically precede the band's name - nice. Anyway, just drag and drop the video onto the top of the list and then throw in nine others under it. I recommend Brad Paisely's "Online" myself. That video is freaking hilarious.

What a birthday present!

Not only is Long Road Out of Eden number one in Australia and the UK, it has today been announced as number one on Billboard. That is especially noteworthy because Billboard, for the first time, has reversed its policy and recognized the sales figures of an album distributed solely through one retailer.

I imagine Glenn is having a happy birthday indeed!

Happy Birthday Glenn!

Today's Glenn's birthday, and to celebrate, I've got lots of fun stuff on GlennFreyOnline. Check it out!
