THE DRIVIN’ DYNAMICS

These dates feature some of Randy’s earliest known performances, most of which are with The Drivin’ Dynamics (aka The Dynamics), the high school band co-founded by Randy in 1961 in Scottsbluff, Nebraska. Also included are several dates by his first band, The Deacons (later The Thunderbirds), which featured both Randy and future Dynamics drummer, John Ankeny.

Note: There are newspaper ads around that show “The Dynamics” performing at dances in Crete, Wilber, and Howells, which are cities in eastern Nebraska. This was probably the band from Omaha who went by the same name.

THE POOR

In the summer of 1966, Randy joined a Denver band called The Soul Survivors. Shortly thereafter they moved to Los Angeles and changed their name to The Poor. They played all the major clubs on the Sunset Strip, but never quite made it. They disbanded in late 1968. Read more about The Poor here.

RICK NELSON & THE STONE CANYON BAND

In March 1969, Randy joins Rick Nelson and brings along two former members of The Poor–Allen Kemp and Pat Shanahan–to form The Stone Canyon Band. Some dates from the Fall of 1969 were cancelled because Nelson was ill with a throat ailment. Randy left the band following the European tour. In his absence he was replaced by Phil “Fang” Volk from Paul Revere & The Raiders and later, Tim Cetera. Randy returned to the band in the Fall of 1970 for a tour and to record Rudy The Fifth.

The following gig most likely occurred following Randy’s departure from the Stone Canyon Band.

March 18, 1971

Denver Auditorium Arena

Denver, Colorado

According to the review, Randy is listed as part of James Taylor’s band, perhaps filling in for bassist, Leland Sklar. It’s possible this is a case of mistaken identity. A few months later in October 1971, Randy is once again mentioned as being part of Taylor’s band at a show in Williamsburg, VA, but photos from the show prove it was actually Sklar.

EAGLES

Randy was one of the four founding members of the Eagles in 1971. He remained with the group until the end of the Hotel California tour in 1977.

1971-1972

DATE	BAND	VENUE (click each for more info)	LOCATION	NOTES
June 23-26, 1971	Linda Ronstadt	Chuck’s Cellar	Los Altos, California	Randy recalled in multiple interviews that he first met Don Henley & Glenn Frey when he filled in for Linda’s bassist, Mike Bowden, at Chuck’s Cellar. Henley & Frey were part of her backing band at the time. These are most likely the dates. It’s unclear whether Randy sat in with the band all four nights.
July 27-August 1, 1971	Linda Ronstadt	Troubadour	West Hollywood, California	Three live recordings from these shows appeared on Linda’s first solo album, Linda Ronstadt (1972). Randy appeared as a background vocalist on two of these live recordings: “Birds” and “Rescue Me.” Mike Bowden played bass.
August 25-30, 1971	Linda Ronstadt	Quiet Knight	Chicago, Illinois	Randy Meisner, Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and Bernie Leadon are listed in the review as Ronstadt’s backing band for the five-night stand. The first night aired over WGLD radio.

April 19th, 1972	Eagles	Pacific Coliseum (PHOTO)	Vancouver, BC, Canada	Opened for Joe Cocker. The band is not mentioned on the bill or in reviews, but they are photographed backstage in the May 13th, 1972 issue of RPM magazine, a Canadian trade publication.

June 12, 1972	Eagles	Coliseum	Spokane, Washington	Opened for Jethro Tull. Although an ad in the Spokesman Review bills them as “Eagles,” an article in the same paper, refers to the band as “Eagle,” perhaps due to the fact that they were billed this way less than two months before when they opened at the Spokane Coliseum for Joe Cocker.
June 14, 1972	Eagles	Fairgrounds Arena	Oklahoma City, Oklahoma	Opened for Jethro Tull. Although the Eagles were not mentioned in any publicity for the show, an audience recording exists of their 8-song set, which included 6 songs from their debut LP, plus 2 non-LP tracks: “How Long” and the rare “Get Up Baby.”
