I wouldn't mind suing Henley over the soft steaming dump he took all over Leadon, Meisner, and Felder.

Farkomatic: I wouldn't mind suing Henley over the soft steaming dump he took all over Leadon, Meisner, and Felder.

Leadon and Meisner, not so much. But Don Felder was a huge piece of their sound, and they threw him out on his ass.

And listening to the Eagles latest album, Long Road Out Of Eden, it's obvious Henley had/has the band by the balls. The album was just not that good, and had Henley's politics all over it(which is OK on his solo albums, but not on an Eagles album).

I think Henley should be sued for supporting Barbara Boxer.

This is the sound of my brain.

Then I said, this is the sound of my brain on Don Henley!

Then I said, 1 2 3 4...

He's a tortured artist
Used to be in the Eagles
Now he whines
Like a wounded beagle
Poet of despair!
Pumped up with hot air!
He's serious, pretentious
And I just don't care
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!
Don Henley must die!

Turn on the TV
And what did I see?
This bloated hairy thing
Winning a Grammy
Best Rock Vocalist?
Compared to what?
But your pseudo-serious
Crafty Satanic blot
Don Henley must die!
Put a sharp stick in his eye!
Don Henley must die!
Yea yea yea

Quit playin' that crap
You're out of the band

I'm only kidding
Can't you tell?
I love his sensitive music
Idiot poetry, swell
You and your kind
Are killing rock and roll
It's not because you are O L D
It's cause you ain't got no soul!
Don't be afraid of fun
Loosen up your ponytail!
Be wild, young, free and dumb
Get your head out of your tail
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!

Don Henley must die!
Put him in the electric chair
Watch him fry!
Don Henley must die
Don Henley must die
No Eagles reunion
The same goes for you, Sting!

Glenechocreek: Don Henley must die!

I thought about posting something similar but I didn't have the Mojo to actually do it.

Kudos. Now go burn down a mall or something.

While I think the guy using these materials was ethically wrong to do so, was it -legally- wrong? Aren't these technically parodies?

You obviously don't know that Don Henley performed that
particular song live with Mojo a few years ago, and out of
respect from then on Mojo changed the live lyrics to "Bono Must
Die".

Yes, Don Henley's a severe leftie, but at least he has something
of a sense of humor about himself, which gives him a little bit
of slack in my book.

Ok,
His douchebag level just went from a 6/10 to a 9/10. I guess I shouldn't feel guilty if I DL that compilation torrent now.

I got 2 words for Don Henley: Joe Farkin' Walsh.

The Eagles' last album was horrible. I regret it on two counts: I regret that I bought it, and I regret that I had to walk into a farking Walmart to do it.

I bought that steaming turd too. Very, very disappointed. They tried too hard. I mean, seriously - what would you rather hear? I'm already gone woo hoo hoo or some pretentious crap from an opinionated grandpa? Because the latter is what we got.

Funny how Henley and Frey have fired every other Eagle at some time or another. That should ring anybody's douchebag alarm.

Funny how Henley can profit from them ("this tired old man that we elected king" referring to Reagan)but they can't use him
