I just heard that Glenn Frey died earlier today, from complications after intestinal surgery. He was taken too soon at 67 years old.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the name, he was – along with Don Henley – one of the founding members of my favourite band, The Eagles. I saw them twice in concert; in 2001 and again in 2014, and they were fantastic on both occasions.
Another icon, gone.
It’s your world now
My race is run
I’m moving on
Like the setting sun
No sad goodbyes
No tears allowed
You’ll be alright
It’s your world now
— It’s Your World Now, from the 2007 Eagles album Long Road Out of Eden
Rest peacefully, Glenn. Take it easy.
