Vince Gill Has Something To Say To Critical Eagles' Fans

  • Vince Gill has a somewhat surprising message for Eagles fans who say that the band can never be the same without Glenn Frey.
    #VinceGill #GlennFrey #TheEagles
    In a recent interview, the country legend says he understands why they feel the way they do - and he even agrees to a certain extent.
    Gill and the Eagles both took their fanbases by surprise when they announced that Gill was joining the band in 2017. Both fans and the band members themselves had assumed the Eagles were finished when Frey died on Jan. 18, 2016, at the age of 67 after suffering complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis and pneumonia. The band returned in a new lineup that included Gill and Frey's son, Deacon, each taking over part of his lead vocal duties in the iconic group alongside Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmit and Joe Walsh, and they've toured off and on ever since.
    In an interview at the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Gill says he understands some fans' online criticisms.
    "It's different, and it's not as good as the original," he states. "I don't sing like Glenn, and I don't pretend to. I see a lot of people making negative comments about me being in that band ... I get it. It's my favorite band, too. I don't want to hear me sing 'New Kid in Town,' but the other option is not possible. So I'm just trying to do my part to keep some great songs afloat."
    Gill admitted that his gig in the Eagles is bittersweet during an interview with Taste of Country in 2017.
    Watch the interview: • Vince Gill Explains Wh...
    "Because Glenn was a great friend, and in my heart of hearts I wish I wasn’t doing it," he stated. "That would mean Glenn would still be around, but life is what it is and you just go do what you can do because of what happens. Those songs deserve to live on as long as they can."

    I agree with Vince on this. He is not trying to be Glenn at all, and he's always been a great singer, so I think The Eagles did a great job of choosing Vince to fill in Glenn's shoes!

      What a positive and talented addition Vince Gill has made to help carry on the Eagles. He’s not trying to replace Glenn Fry, he’s merely making it possible for the band to carry on as many other bands and groups have done. How generous of Gill to offer his talents and skill as an accomplished and gifted musician and vocal artist! Congratulations to the Eagles and Vince Gill. This was a great and unselfish idea. May you all prosper happily!

      Vince Gill is a top end artist in his own right and a worthy addition to the Eagles. Nothing can bring Glen back and that is sad. The Eagles can continue and the songs can be heard, that is what is important now.

      Saw the Eagles present configuration in Milwaukee in 2018 ... Saw the Eagles in Milwaukee in 1977 or so ... and enjoyed both shows in their own right. So-called purists who need something to gurgle about usually just like to hear the sound of their own voice. Both shows were superior. Vince is a superstar in his own right ... as are the Eagles.

    I love the eagles my wife are long lived Eagles fans. We where devastated when Glen passed away. We’ve been to six live concerts in the Midwest being we live in Iowa. We have also been longtime fans of Vince Gill and I could not think of anyone better for the band to take on to keep the music alive. And one more thing if the Eagles decided to have Vince then who are we to question that decision. Further more my wife and I saw the Eagles with Vince Gill with Deacon in Chicago at the United Center a few years back and it was just outstanding. RIP Glenn you will never be forgotten 👍🏽👊🏽🇺🇸

    It’s not like the band kicked Glenn out of the band, the man died!!! I’m sure he wouldn’t want the band to quit playing because he died. I think he’d be honored to have his friend Vince Gill singing the songs, and keeping the band going, knowing what a talented person Vince is. Some people just don’t have a clue!!!

      I am 77 and view the eagles with Glen as the greatest all round guitar based group of all time. I have played guitar for 60 years and know a thing or two about groups though retired. A sad loss but I offer the following suggestions. There is nothing to be gained by Glens son, the opposite. Don has lost his quality somewhat and Vince should take the lead in some of his songs.
      Timothy could be given more in that regard too. A primary source of the bands strength was/is its harmonies and this ought be
      maintained and even added too. Vince is a superb guitarist and more from him leadwise would also help. In short much of the bands tightness would be restored.

Once you have an iconic band/member and that members passes that should be the end to the band as we know it. Personally I get both sides like Vince. It should be done at that point... As a music fanatic and not all music, music should carry on. I'm not a country fan for the most part but Vince did 1 hell of a job with this song. Haven't heard the other Eagle songs yet that he did with them.

    I assure anyone reading this comment that no one outside of Glenn's family was more heartbroken upon hearing his death. The eagles got me through high school, breaking up less than 2 months after I graduated in 1980. I know exactly where the track on the eight track tape changed in the middle of Best of My Love, I wore out at least four cassette tapes of the Greatest Hits Volume 1, and have all the original vinyl. My kids were raised on Eagles music. At Epcot many years ago, the cover band Hotel California was performing at the pavilion. While other teenagers sitting with their parents looked bored and played on their phones, my kids were grooving and singing along with the band. I love the attitude Vince Gill has regarding his role with the band. I wish Glenn was still alive too, but her is not. If I have a choice between never hearing Eagles songs again or listening to Vince sing Glenn's parts, I will take the latter. Don't forget, Don and Glenn were master songwriters that were responsible for most of these songs, and I do not think Glenn would have wanted the music to die because he is not longer with us. One by one, we will lose the rest of the band. However, the true test of an artist's music is how well it survives after they can no longer sing for us. May the music Glenn and his friends and band mates wrote and recorded live forever.

      I'd have to think about big money, but other than that, I am seriously considering taking a long trip from my home in southern Illinois to see them in Dallas next September. After watching several fan videos on here of past shows and then their 2018 show at The Forum that was shown on ESPN back in the summer, that is looking more appealing to me. Two other big factors in my thought process are the fact that Dallas is the closest city on the 2021 tour list and also the possibility that they might decide to call it quits again. Looking back, I think I made a big mistake choosing to see Kenny Chesney over the Eagles when both acts came to Busch Stadium in St. Louis. Don't get me wrong, Kenny was good, but I think I would have really liked that Eagles concert, even with the little glitch that happened.

    What better a voice to add to the Eagles harmonies? Henley wouldn’t have asked him to join if he didn’t think it would compliment the Eagles and thrive. Vince deserves this opportunity as well. Vince has also marked an epoch in music history so he has the talent and experience to pull it off. Looking forward to the Eagles continuing on. Glenn would have wanted them to. They will soar!

    There is no reason for Vince to be apologetic in any way for performing Glenn's songs. He is helping to keep the Eagle's music alive, all the while doing a damn good job in the process. I think we can all agree that if we were deserted on an island somewhere and could only have one album available, please let it be one from the Eagle's. Thank the lord for Don, Glenn, Tim & Joe, you guys have done an excellent job picking musicians to perform with you for decades now. It is good to see Deacon & Vince in the mix.

    When Glenn Frey passed, Henley said it was over. Obviously, he changed his mind. That’s his right. If people don’t like like it, they don’t have to go to the shows or buy the album.
