Question on benefit money: Were all of them THAT liberal?


Maybe some band members wanted to earn a living and then decide what causes to support?

I think all the fuss about the Cranston political benefit was about Frey and Henley wanting to look good to certain audiences. The same thing goes for Henley's Walden Woods project.

The Eagles were mainly about stacking cash.

i posted elsewhere that i like how in the end they enriched themselves by teaming up with WALMART. I THINK THAT WAS FANTASTIC! but i bet that doesn't fit the agenda.

I think he's a great artist - I've got a couple of his CD's, but Henley has always been a hypocritical, domineering douche-bag.

Frey, Henley and Walsh all supported democratic candidates. Felder says he wasn't interested in politics. Schmit kept quiet. So the majority of the band supported Democrats.

The way US campaign finances are regulated, individuals can't make large cash contributions to a campaign but they can provide their services for a fundraising event.
