Were the Eagles Druggies?

The Eagles Did a Ton of Cocaine
During the follow up to Hotel California, Henley later explained that cocaine was only "a writing tool." It fueled their recording sessions, but "at the end it brought out the worst in everyone."

Did the Eagles ever do drugs?

In London for the British premiere of their documentary, “History of the Eagles Part One”, the U.S. band said they looked back now at the prolific use of drugs, particularly cocaine, in the 1970s and see it as a snapshot of those times.

Why did the Eagles fall out?

The '70s superstars broke up in 1980 after two of the band members actually threatened each other with physical violence onstage in front of a concert audience. The Eagles were already struggling with a great deal of internal turmoil due to the pressure to follow up their career-changing 1976 album Hotel California.
