Obama Jokes With The Eagles At Kennedy Center Honors Reception

President Barack Obama cautions Joe Walsh of the Eagles not to trash the White House like he once did a hotel room. "We want to get our security deposit back."
Walsh, Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmidt and the widow of Glenn Frey were at the White House in advance of the Kennedy Honors celebration.
This is the final Kennedy Honors that Obama will preside over while president.

    Not only Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Timothy B Schmidt and Joe Walsh should have been there, but also Don Felder, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon. Together they made the Eagles the greatest band ever.

    How gullible can one be. I give you that he was well spoken and eloquent. But what did he accomplish??? He divided the country like no other President, he bashed America (eloquently) around the world, the economy was the worst, black unemployment at the highest, the worst black / white hatred he created, the worst police sentiment he spouted, Bashed Christians and Conservatives like they were unAmerican. Although all done very eloquently! The lists actually is much longer. PLEASE get educated and take your head out of the sand!!! I must say probably the worst President ever, if not the top two. People who believed him or voted for him - are the most politically uneducated and gullible ideologues!

    J Doe I do agree with your comment here. With the Eagles there was to much ego flowing with Henley and Frey....can even throw Azoff in there to. Fielder was not invited due to standing up for himself with the law suit and Randy due leaving them. When he quit they knew they lost 99% of the voice/sound of the band. That shows with it taking a very long time to come out with The Long Run lp. Not the Tim can’t play or sing but no one could come close to Meisners voice and sound. Lots of bands have completely broke apart due to egos for sure, but those to should of still been honored.

    Roger Ross, Thank you for saying what I have thought since I got word of this award! Don Felder was as large a part of that band as any of the other guys. In 1974 Bernie brought him to a session or two and they (Glen & Don ) wanted him on the spot to bring more solid rock Guitar to the music.

    Honestly I know he's reading off a promter, but its obvious by the fluency about what he's speaking of, that he is a fan and is at least aware of the situation. It would have been nice for him to have the balls to pay a special mention to Don Felder, and a word or two about Randy and Bernie. I dont like how he got kicked out of the band, but shit goes on that we will never be privy to and I can accept that. But to be so fucking bitter as to not invite your former band members to any awards or lifetime achievement honors, for a legacy in which they all fully contributed to is FLAT OUT WRONG!!! Also don't be fooled, as you can be absolutely certain Don Henley would have told the White House that the Eagles won't show up unless he gets to choose who goes. This is what makes some of these award things meaningless. That the White House accepts that kinda shit. They should have told Henley to fuck off and don't show up if it's like that. Let Felder, Leadon and whoever else wants to show up accept the award. I FUKING GUARANTEE YOU Henley wouldn't be long about changing his mind.

    Actually Maynard, Don Felder wasn't an original Eagle either. While I agree he brought a lot to the group, their were only four original members. (And it's Bernie Leadon, you forgot the a) The "History of the Eagles" is the best information on this band anywhere. You can get it on DVD and it was also shown on CNN approximately a year ago. It isn't a bunch of music and entertainment writers' opinions and takes on what happened, it comes straight from the horses' mouths. The ones that were actually there.

    Conspicuously absent, original major contributors Don Felder, Randy Meisner and Bernie Ledon who are 3/5 of the eagles. Joe Walsh and Timothy came at the end, replacement Eagles. There was not the usual magic and love for the Eagles honoring, kind of felt empty. All due to Don Henley being a hater and unable to bury the hatchet.
