The Eagles are coming, The Eagles are coming!!

To OMAHA!! Woo-Hoo!

I'm really really tempted....it's been almost two years since I saw them last, but tickets are $30-118! And you know those $30 aren't worth jack.

Tickets go on sale Saturday, so I have a couple of days to decide and see if anyone wants to go with me. (Hubby has already said "no" )

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

I would love to see a concert coming here to my area....Metallica! I was sad that Godsmack was not with them in these parts. That would have been ideal.

But, the tickets are getting so nasty priced, I cannot believe it!

I remember when (and I am not that old) but concert tickets were about $13 - $15. Now, they seem to regularly run $50+. That is nuts!

Oh well. If you want to see them bad enough, you pay.

Good luck finding someone to go with you Lynn. It should be an excellent show!

I had deja vu reading this thread.

Didn't you post the last time around?



Wow -- that's web site continuity!

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

You know, the pitiful thing was that I remembered.

But more credit to you -- you wrote a snappy headline that stuck with me after a long time. Have you considered a new career?

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

10:00 CT And believe it or not, I checked at 9:00 CT just in the smallest smidgeon of a chance that it meant Eastern time.

26 minutes.

I just tried to sneak in with my ET Ticketmaster cookie.

No dice.

You can go back to staring at the clock now.

7 minutes.

I spent 10 minutes in the mixed religions thread trying not to obsess.

I started to panic when I was 1/2 through my response and noticed the clock was creeping.

Think I have time for a potty break? I just downed a diet mountain dew.

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

Moment of panic when I realized I did not have credit card IN HAND.

Did I mention I was up at 5:30 this a.m. and my first coherent thought was "ONLY 4.5 hours and I can buy my tickets"

I would be your date if I could!!!!
We could dance together. The only problem is that I would sing and you wouldn't like that. And I have a bad habit of screaming "Freebird" at every concert that I go to.
Congrats on the tix!

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

I like it when ANYONE sings at a concert. Last time, we were right in front of this school teacher from Kearney. He and I were trading notes in between every song ("Okay, now it should be Witchy Woman, because that's what is the next song on the album" ) I sang every word of every song. I hope we are not singing in church the next day because I will have no voice left.

I have to start prepping Judy (my friend who is not crazy about The Eagles, but her husband is, so she goes along with us ) on who is who. Last time she couldn't keep Don and Glenn straight.
