Had you bought the vinyl record you would know all the words...
But eve the two members of the eagles that composed the song are not even sure what it is about. They wanted something dark and strange and a trip in the desert of California helped inspire them.
Don Henley wrote a couple lines for them but Frey and Felder are the the primary composers. Felder eventually left the band over bad feelings with Henley/Frey.If I recall correctly Felder won most of the rights to the song. Don Henley wanted to be boss of everything and then tragically his closest friend/fellow band mate Glenn Frey died.
Hotel California is the Eagles' biggest hit and so there was an acrimonious law suit over the song after the breakup. Glen Frey's son is replacing his dad and Vince Gill is also a band member.
They recently announced their last big Tour named "Hotel California".---Sadly without Glenn Frey or Don Felder.
The most expensive VIP seat is around $7,000 the cheapest low-oxygen seats are about $200.00.
If anyone goes we need a report back.
