Don also supposedly hung up the phone on Stevie when she called him and told him she was marrying Kim Anderson. Strange relationship those 2 have.

he's a flaming dick and it's so ridiculous how she tolerated his **** because he was Mr Famous. She talked back in the late 70s/early80s about how impressed she was at how famous the Eagles were (she always knows how to find the people in a crowd who can be useful to her "I wanna be a star, I don't wanna be a cleaning lady"). She also said that it was Don who "taught" her "how to be a rock star".... so we can thank him for that. "I get the Presidential suite because I demand it" and all that happy claptrap. She talked about how she would be all quiet and not talk about her career and Fleetwood Mac around him/the Eagles and, in her words, "trick them to death". That's why I find her "feminist" claims laughable. She is so totally a product of the era she grew up in (50s) and women need to flatter men and bat their eyelashes and pretend they don't have any ambition etc. That was her approach with Don... and he being of the same era was all white, male privilege...treating everyone like dirt. I guess if you wanna become an a$$hole diva, learn from the best.

While I LOVE The Eagles, he and Glenn were both MAJOR ASSH*LES, IMO. Glenn more so, but "Don's a malcontent. He's always been a malcontent, and that's just life" - David Geffin

I totally agree.

But Mick elsewhere lets a lot come out that wasn’t his to tell. So he appears to have restricted himself to what the band would permit, the “official line” at the time, which was really my point.
