Re The Eagles are coming, The Eagles are coming!!

I found a set list last week and proceeded to lose it. I remember that there were a number of songs from Eden...can't remember which ones though.

Witchy Woman was on the list, and Wasted Time was not. Bad swap, IMO.

'k.

After having the CD just a little over a week, I've nearly worn it out. Review on eps, if you are interested.

Re The Eagles are coming, The Eagles are coming!!

O.

Truly one of the best concerts I've been to (once I got there...Omaha has GOT to get the traffic control to the Qwest under control...) and I've been to a lot in my lifetime.

I was mildly annoyed at the people in front of my who seemed more interested in their cell phones (which they dropped repeatedly) and texting than the concert. And the persistent yakking they insisted upon during a couple of the songs from Eden.

I sort of kind of jokingly threatened to set the guy in front of me on fire using my BFF Heather's contraband lighter at one point. When the 21 year old sitting on the other side of me gasped, I just said "Dude's annoying me" and gave the lighter back to Heather. It was probably safer.

All things aside...really an amazing concert. The crowd leaned toward the old stuff, but having done my homework, I really loved the new songs. Waiting in the Weeds and Long Road to Eden are my new favorite Eagles tunes.

Don was a wee bit off in the first few bars of "Weeds", but otherwise was spot on. I almost called Brian during "Desperado" but it was nearly midnight and I didn't figure he'd appreciate it. (Given that he HATES Desperado, he probably would not appreciate it at any time....). Otherwise, my usual drool. No one needs to be reminded about my "thing" for Don.

Glenn, as usual, was the front man for the crowd...he used some familiar set ups for old songs (calling an ex-wife "the Plantiff" when introducing "Lynin' Eyes", saying that the guy's wives used "Take it to the Limit" as their theme song for credit cards), but I didn't mind. It was sort of like listening to my husband tell the same old story for the umpteenth time.

Joe is really an amazing guitarist, and it was even more evident on this tour. Or maybe I was just paying more attention. Timothy...I never have anything positive to say about Timothy, except that maybe he seems like he's a genuinely nice man. I don't like his singing and I think he's vaguely creepy looking. So there.

During the encore, the thought crept into my mind that this might be the last time I see them live. I've never had that come to mind before, so either it's a premonition, or I'm finally facing the fact that the guys might be ready to retire.

Please no.

Brian and I were away for the weekend, and by midnight your time we were fast asleep after a very tiring birthday party and several glasses of wine.

I myself love the Eagles and Desperado, but might not have been amused at 1 am.
