Sweets, it's called a difference in opinion. You like The Eagles, I think they suck big hairy horses asses. I'll be spending my money on quality this Christmas whereas you'll be buying has-been crap.

It's an interesting marketing technique is it not?
Don't release new music, simply repackage your old music ad nauseum.
Then you can go on tour to support your "new" release and charge $200 for a ticket.
Keeps Joe Walsh in Maseratis, doesn't it?

You are correct i am jewish, i am sorry that you don't like jewish people.
This thred was about the Eagles, but your post are spam, and insulting to the Jewish members of the board.
this is my first day on this board and i am hurt :(
How is my post insulting to Jewish people? I assumed that of you because you commented on a lack of Christmas. So how exactly is:

And The Eagles are way too boring to sustain a whole thread....I only changed the topic to stop the thread from dying. And it worked.

You know, there are other religions that don't celebrate Christmas too. ;) So assuming someone's religion on that one statement is, at best, a lucky guess.
About Hotel California, I don't know where you got that information from Ad, but that's erroneous. Think about it in a more metaphorical sense. It's an allegory. I could tell you what it means, but I won't. ;) At least not yet.

Which part doesn't make sense...the quote or the suggestion it should be moved?
And for me, the Eagles thing comes from hearing them over and over and over on the radio as I was growing up (I'm a little bit older than you dudes). Sure I know every word to Hotel California but I would be more than happy to see my days out without ever hearing another Eagles song again.

Now, I'm not really one to labour a point...but can you please tell me, as previously requested, what is so offensive about the one comment I made...
The only thing I can gather from your post is that you are of Jewish origin.
This was an observation, based on your comment. I assumed you don't observe Christmas, as there are other faiths who don't celebrate Christmas either. I won't be called racist (namely because I'm not one) by someone who can't substantiate their accusations.

The problem is i am new on this forum, i was shocked when i saw your language as my child is a member.
I love christmas, and it's family time of giving, i wanted this cd as it's a collecters edition with a limited edition dvd.
You have taken it all out of context, and it shows what type of person you are and what type of person my son is mixing with, all over a cd.
You should be ashamed. :(

You must've caught the tail-end of it, or something. He did talk about some of the strange things that people thought Hotel California was about, the satanic church/cult being one of them. Others (popular at the time) were that it's about a mental institution, or an actual hotel down in Mexico. Or cancer. Or drug addiction. ;)
Afterwards he said what it was truly about. It's about the rampant hedonism and vice in (particularly) southern California. The loss of innocence. The whole album runs on this theme.

The Eagles Greatest Hits - Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, released on Elektra/Asylum Records, have sold 28M and 11M units respectively. Didn't the band have to resort to litigation because they were being cheated out of their fair share of the profits due to creative accounting techniques? ;)
this set is on a different label, so maybe they're trying to recoup some $$$ and regain some control over their own product.
whether you like The Eagles music or not, Don Henley certainly is a major thorn in the side of the record companies and the RIAA. :D
[henley rant] c. 2002
"....Having thus come to my senses, I, too, would then be able to sign fledgling artists to unconscionable, long-term contracts with all those juicy deduction clauses like the one for breakage that dates back to 1928, when the records were made of shellac and would shatter if dropped. Tried to break a CD lately? Why, you couldn’t break one if you wedged it horizontally between Zach Horowitz’s butt cheeks and told him that all his master copyrights were about to revert to the true owners, the artists. But never mind that now. Then I could stick those stupid artists with at least 50% of the independent-promotion costs, even though they had nothing to do with allowing that practice to become institutionalized. For an encore, I could whack ’em again with "free goods," packaging deductions, video costs, etc., etc., ad infinitum.
"Sit your temperamental, flaky, naive ass down here, artist. Disgruntled about your deal after your third album sold 5 million copies? Sure, we’ll renegotiate with you. We’ll just give you what basically amounts to your own money, which we’ve been holding in the pipeline and collecting interest on, but we’re also gonna start the clock all over again and tack on three more albums at the end so that you’re essentially starting all over again. It’s a beautiful thing. You’re gonna love it here—for the rest of your career, which actually could be over in five minutes, but hey, that’s not our problem (we own your master copyrights, you boob). So you can just sell the house in the hills and go back to that crappy little town you came from, and the world ‘will not long remember what we did here, etc…’ We’ll just write off any losses we may have incurred (although we really haven’t incurred any). It’s just the cost of doing business. Then we’ll proceed to the next gullible sap with a dream. You came from diddlysquat, and you’ll get used to diddlysquat again.
"Meanwhile, here at media-mogul headquarters, we’ve got to lock up the house in Santa Barbara, as well as the one in the Hamptons (plus the vacation pad in Acapulco) and rush off to get the corporate jet serviced. It’s in dire need of a tune-up after all those trips to France, and the new one won’t be delivered until we find the next Flavor-of-the-Month and bring in some serious profits (or prophets—we could really use either). After all, we’ve got to fund our mass-production assembly line somehow. You know—all the crap we sign just because some 21-year-old A&R man tells us it’s brilliant. You can’t expect us to sacrifice our bottom line just for the sake of culture. We don’t give a shit about culture. That kind of starry-eyed idealism doesn’t fit in with our plan for world domination, much less the plans of our board of directors and our major stockholders. We’ve got quarterly reports to file, and we’ve got a 90%-plus failure rate that screams out, ‘We don’t know what the fuck we’re doing.’’

Just wanted to add that i thought the reference to 'The Big Lebowski' was quite funny, and that i was surprised that no-one else did. I really love that film.
To Ella- That guy's just winding you up, take no notice. I think celery scared him off anyway.
On topic- I like The Eagles but 'Hotel California' really grates now when i hear it. All the Best of.... Greatest Hits.... etc albums, aren't the fault of the artists. It's the label fat cats who are behind the aggressive marketing strategies.

By the way, dumdum.... While i hate corporate greed as much as the next man; is it not in very bad taste to compare Adolf Hitler to Bill Gates? I think so.
Sure, your avatar is meant to be funny, but there are some things that you just shouldn't joke about, for danger of trivialisation. Let us not forget that Adolf Hitler was responsible for the murder of an estimated twenty one innocent million men, women and children, not including war casualties.
I'm not having a go at you dumdum, i'm sure you mean no harm. Thanks for the link to the Lebowski site, i'll be sure to check it out. :)

I also love this forum cause of all the crap that gets posted. I was once a spammer of crap in the beginning untill FC kicked the shit out of me and said HE was the King of Spam!!
Whats that got to do with anything - nothing - im just writing crap like everyone else - except those who replied to the original thread with constructive thoughts of course ;)
Also, its not nice with personal insults. Give a thought to the N00Bs who maybe are not used to the language of public/private forums. Agreed that you have to be thick-skinned in here, but not everyone is aware of that!
