2009-08-27T23:50:00.004-04:00

There's an interview with Don Henley scheduled for this coming month on "In the Studio" with Redbeard. Not sure if it's new or edited old stuff but it should be interesting! Check out the In The Studio site for a preview. It says under Don's photo "the week of August 24th" so it may be coming up very soon - watch for it!

Don doesn't do social networking!

2009-08-13T20:16:00.002-04:00

This was posted a month ago but it's only recently been brought to my attention. From Don's official site:

Please be advised that any "Don Henley" Twitter, Facebook, or MySpace account is not Don Henley of the Eagles.

Don Henley does not "Twitter," nor does he have a Facebook or MySpace account. He does not communicate via social networking sites and has not authorized any account to be created on his behalf.

[posted 7/14/2009 ]

I have to say, if you seriously thought some jerk on MySpace was Don.... well, I've got some oceanfront property in Utah for sale...

50 photos added to the galleries!

2009-07-30T02:05:00.002-04:00

I've added photos to every gallery except the Long Road Out of Eden one, simply because I'm absolutely overwhelmed with all the new photos and will get to that later. In the meantime, go hit up those photo galleries and see if you can spot the ones that weren't there before. Enjoy!

A new wallpaper:

As announced in the Shreveport Times, Don Henley is going to play a benefit in his hometown of Linden. This blurb is from the Cass County Conservancy site's description:

"Spend an intimate Saturday evening on October 25, 2008, with Don Henley in concert benefiting the Cass County Courthouse Restoration Project in Linden, Texas. The concert begins at 7:00 p.m. at Music City Texas Theater in Linden. Tickets are $1,000 each, a portion of which is tax deductible, and are available now, with only 420 tickets to be issued.

This very special evening includes a private after-concert reception for all ticket holders and an opportunity to meet and speak with Mr. Henley. Net proceeds from the concert will help supply matching funds to supplement the $4.4 million grant the Texas Historical Commission recently awarded Cass County to restore its historic courthouse."

Anyone lucky enough to go - have fun!

Walden Event a Success

2007-10-09T11:22:00.000-04:00

Here are the details about last week's Walden charity event from Undercover.com:

Don Henley Walden Piano Pulls in $510k by Paul Cashmere - October 9 2007

A piano auctioned at the Walden Woods benefit in New York last Thursday earned $510,000 for the charity. The charity was founded in 1990 by Eagles' drummer Don Henley as a "non-profit organization that preserves the land, literature and legacy of Henry David Thoreau to foster an ethic of environmental stewardship and social responsibility," according to the foundation's website. Funds raised for the charity go towards conservation, education and research.

Henley hosted the charity dinner with the centrepiece being a custom-built Steinway model D piano autographed by Billy Joel, Bruce Hornsby, Elton John, Herbie Hancock and others. During the evening, Billy Joel played the piano and performed his songs 'Summer, Highland Falls' and 'Piano Man' for the audience. Henley took to the microphone for 'Come Rain or Come Shine' and 'It Ain't Easy Being Green' and came back later to do a version of 'Georgia On My Mind' which he sang as 'Walden On My Mind'. The audience included Pink Floyd's Roger Waters, Bette Midler, Ed Begley Jr, Val Kilmer and John Malkovich.

Walden Woods

2007-09-28T17:48:00.000-04:00

Don Henley is set to perform Ocotber 4th at a New York charity event benefitting the Walden Woods Project, a cause that is very near and dear to his heart.

Here is the announcement: One Of A Kind Piano Autographed By Billy Joel, Elton John, Emanuel Ax, Dave Brubeck, Herbie Hancock, Bruce Hornsby, Evgeny Kissin And Barbara Nissman is up for auction to benefit the Walden Woods Project and American Forests.

A first of its kind collaboration between Steinway and Sons, renowned marquetry artist Silas Kopf, an impressive group of well-known popular and classical recording artists, and two compelling charities (the Walden Woods Project and American Forests) has resulted in the creation of a unique collector’s item – the Walden Woods Art Case Piano. The Model D concert grand will be auctioned by Christie’s at a fundraising event in Manhattan on October 4th with the goal of securing a minimum bid of $500,000. The plate of the piano has been signed, and the piano has been played, by an extraordinary group of artists including Elton John, Emanuel Ax, Dave Brubeck, Herbie Hancock, Bruce Hornsby, Barbara Nissman, Evgeny Kissin and Billy Joel. Billy Joel will play the Walden Steinway during his performance at the fundraiser/auction. Don Henley will also perform, as will classical pianist Barbara Nissman.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Walden Woods Project, the charity founded by Eagle Don Henley that preserves the birthplace of the American environmental movement and reaches an international audience of students and teachers to foster the next generation of conservationists. Also benefiting from the piano auction proceeds will be American Forests, the nation’s oldest nonprofit conservation group.

Naturally felled wood from the area surrounding historic Walden Pond in Massachusetts – the inspiration for the writings of Henry David Thoreau – was used in creating the marquetry (decorative art using in-laid wood) on the piano depicting the flora and fauna of Walden Woods. The piano has a series of plaques surrounding the rim that depict trees and plants that Thoreau wrote about. The legs of the piano are inverted arches that depict Walden Pond with various forms of aquatic life. One of Thoreau’s most well known quotations (“I went to the woods to live deliberately…”) surrounds the upper rim of the piano. The piano is a one of a kind, collector’s item that blends artistry and the unsurpassed quality of a Steinway piano – and adds the unique feature of popular culture in the form of high profile musicians who have played and signed the Walden Steinway.

A successful bidder will not only realize the dream of owning this extraordinary instrument but will be making a sizable tax deductible contribution to two compelling environmental charities. Steinway and Sons has made a generous donation to the manufacturing of the piano. Christie’s is donating its services for the auction. The fundraiser/auction is sponsored by Merrill Lynch.

Reba McEntire's "Duets" featuring Don in stores today!

2007-09-18T02:48:00.000-04:00

Reba McEntire's album Duets is in stores today. One of the duets is with our own Don Henley. They sing the song "Break Each Other's Hearts Again," which has already been noted as a standout track in several reviews.

Here's an example from a Queensland, Australia newspaper:
"CHECK OUT THIS TRACK: McEntire's hurricane of a voice might seem an odd match for Don Henley's ethereal tenor, but the two sound exquisite on 'Break Each Other's Hearts Again,' which sounds more like an Eagles cut than anything the country star has previously performed."

The album is also available for download off of iTunes. If you'd like to just download the one song, it's available on Walmart's download website.
