Vernette?

That's beautiful.
That's the name that fits the mug shot.

Nor is there any surprise the 3 were intoxicated at the time of the incident.  There was never any doubt. 

And you gotta respect her loyalty to the cause.
She could have taken the knife to the music system, but did not.  She knew that she had to eradicate the Eagles fan.  Then the stereo is free to play something more appropriate.

Vernett's back in jail agin....

In the not to distant future, Vernette will be a Rosa Parks type figure.

This is exceptional, by the way.

Oh yeah?  Well maybe ole Vernett will be making paying a social call to your house pretty soon.  Perhaps ole Vernett would like to make your acquaintance, have a little chat with you.  Ever think of that, Eagle boy?  Yeah, we'll see.  We'll see about all that.

" #6 The EaglesIt took a lot of hard work by the other bands on this list to push these pigeons back to #6.   They were the Coldplay of their generation.   Somewhat talented boys but record sales that were completely disproportionate to the quality of their music.   I hate every Eagles song really.  They get worse with every listen that I’m forced to endure inside of those 3-star hotel elevators where this torture device of a band belongs.  I don’t dislike Glenn Frey, Don Henley and the boys.  I’m sure they all tip well.  Hell, they’re probably great babysitters.  But it’s not my fault they suck so why should I feel bad?  I just resent the amount of time I’ve had to spend explaining to my friends (while their heads were tilted at a 67 degree angle) why the Eagles simply suck.  They. Always. Suck. "

The author of that article put the Eagles on the same list as Bon Jovi, Creed and Nickelback.  He's not the first to put the Eagles in that type of company.  I doubt Eagles fans understand that to be a comprehensive insult either.  After all, Bon Jovi and Creed have some songs on the radio too.

sirmoonie, we know that the Eagles are not a good band. It doesn't matter if they are popular. Jesus is popular. Mel Gibson's Passion of The Christ is popular. Just let it go.

So Jesus, Gibson and the Eagles have something in common. And the Beatles and sex are popular too. It depends on how they are represented by the media. For instance, the oldest of my nephews, who wants to study music, says he doesn't know who the Beatles are. And they always have they nose close to their stupid i-phone machines. Why is that? Because the media is causing people to stop thinking.

We still need a political thread. That would be entertaining. I miss Riffhard, and I'm a bit drunk.

The question is, do they suck worse than Obama?

So you got your own Eagle thread, Joey.  Well done, my friend.  Superlative.  Exemplary!  The Eagles, even more than Three Dog Night, can truly lay claim to the title of The Great American Rock Band.

It is a given that people hate bon jovi, just like we hate cancer, parasites, frank thorogood, sobriety, pope porn, stale popcorn and busch light. the eagles, however, are more in the grey area….their witchcraft and complete suckdom cannot be spotted as easily by true rock and roll fans.

A must read:

http://www.salon.com/2013/08/08/quit_defending_the_eagles_theyre_simply_terrible...

"As their career progressed, the Eagles shed much of their country aspects, with only their fairly bland harmonies remaining. They became high priests of lowest-common-denominator rock, crafting studiously inoffensive rock designed to appeal to the broadest swath of the record-buying, radio-listening public. And perhaps that’s why Jeffrey Lebowski and so many of us continue to villainize the Eagles: They didn’t stand for anything. They lacked the outrage that drove John Fogerty’s music and Gram Parsons’ unwavering belief that the answers were blowing in the hickory wind. Their hedonism was never as much fun as Marc Bolan’s, and their desperadoes had no code of honor like Willie Nelson’s redheaded stranger or Townes Van Zandt’s Pancho and Lefty. The Eagles may have decried record industry avarice on “Hotel California,” but they were already the multi-headed beast at the head of that table. Don Henley may have transformed himself into a public scold, but his ecological concerns, however valid, never informed the music he made with the band or as a solo artist.

The Eagles’ legacy is selling a lot of records. All the reappraisals in the world won’t change that."
-----
“They were rich hippies. They were virtuosos in an idiom that did not require virtuosity. They were self-absorbed Hollywood liberals. They were not-so-secretly shallow. They were uncaring womanizers and the worst kind of cokehead. They wanted to be seen as cowboys, but not the ones who actually road horses. They never rocked, even after adding Joe Walsh for that express purpose (the first forty-five seconds of ‘Life in the Fast Lane’ are a push). They lectured college kids about their environmental footprint while flying around in private jets. They literally called themselves ‘The Eagles.’”

You're the best, amigo. Am Ee Go.  A'igo.  Am-fucking-igo.  I love smoking crack too!  Great drug to blast away an evening with.  Schlork!  Crack has gained a bad reputation in the US because whitey associates it with negroes.  But sophisticates like us know The Score.

I can't stand Eagle music, can't switch the knob fast enough when stuff like New Kid in Town, Desperado or Heartbiff Tonight comes on the radio.  WTF?  Just fucking annoying, dated music,  But its by far their fans that lead me to rage.  I detest such shallow, ignorant people.  Yet, there they are, every day, legions of them.  I detest them like pisstulant vermin.
