In the original script it was royalties from his childless uncle inventing the Rubik's Cube. It's a mystery in the film. He wrote bogus checks and took his sweet time to pay his pushover landlord though.
because the eagles are the cheesiest shittiest rock band ever. joe walsh was the only one in that band with any taste, the rest of them wrote geezer music
Because if the Eagles are playing in the taxi, one would assume he is the one who asked to have that on, rather than the militant Black man. This turns out not to be the case in a joke I figured I didn't need to explain, but here we are.
Actual answer, because T Bone Burnett was involved with the soundtrack and he hates The Eagles. Hippies get mad at the Eagles because they charged a lot for tickets to their shows. But don't even try to talk shit for real because Joe Walsh is ALL TIME one of the most fun guitar players to listen to.
The Dude was an authentic hippie and one of their biggest spergout talking points are "posers". The Eagles are the biggest poser hippie band of all time, they're for boomers who wanna pretend to be a hippie for an hour at a time.
1. no one asked for it.
2. They had to retcon the pedophilia (8 year olds dude) to make him somewhat likeable. The thing is that his ONE JOKE is that he's this sleazy guy talking tons of shit, but then he's registered sex offender.
3. The brothers aren't involved.
The hippies didn't like the Eagles because the Eagles represented the commercialization of the Laurel Canyon Folk community, plus because the Eagles were made up of studio musicians (iirc, they were Linda Rondstadt's backing group), other musicians thought they didn't "pay their dues" playing shitty clubs and whathaveyou and skipped right into success. Also, the other musicians were jealous as well (the Greatest hits album sold more than Thriller, and Hotel California isn't that far behind Thriller either as one of the highest selling studio albums)
a better question is what was his source of income
Unemployment security, aka funemployment

Well at least he support him on his dance quintet
He was redpilled on the music industry, remember he used to roadie for Metallica?

Because the Jesus was his bowling rival and his theme song was a cover of Hotel California. Think about it.

if that's the case then why did he have creedance tapes in his car? CCR are also posers for playing "swamp rock" while being from san francisco
The Dude is a bit of a hypocrite. He has a reputation for being chill and zen like but he easily gets annoyed and spazzes out a lot.
ccr wrote good music so it doesn't matter if they were posers. the eagles just suck ass all around
Heartache Tonight is better than any CCR song.
wrong
VIET FRICKIN NAM
The eagles wrote several great and endearing songs
Why don't you hate The Eagles?
Because they sound like shit
Cause they suck
Actually the name of the band is just "Eagles".
Because they are really fricking awful
Cuz they didn't take Frodo directly to Mt Doom
He once got a blowjob to “Hotel California” but she punched him really hard in the testicles just before he climaxed.
My dad really hates The Eagles and I always think of this bit as the equivalent of how much I hate Blink from my generation
Why did the spinoff fail so hard.
John Turturro's an actor, not a writer.

>Are you employed, sir?
How do you respond?
>no
Your taxes pay my bills
this is correct, Donnie is the closest to zen-like out of the whole group.

Because they were the Taylor Swift of American Rock.
