To see the Eagles.  50th bday gift to myself.

Boomer at heart I guess

nice, enjoy

Vince Gill still with him, that cat is talented…

Curious as to cost?

Glad you are going and hope you have fun, but my Eagles days are over. Officially reached saturation level.

Was never much of an Eagles fan even in their prime, but their Sphere ad is amazing and mashes me want to go. Enjoy. I’m sure the show will rock in place

The heyday of the Eagles were right in my prime. I was also not a big fan. They weren't bad... just not my cup of tea. I was way more into Black Sabbath, Van Halen, Kiss, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Thin Lizzy... that genre.

As I've aged and toned down a lot, I have a greater appreciation for Eagles music. Ironically, one of the songs I do like by them is actually a Jackson Browne song and I like his version better.

I saw them a few years ago at Phillips Arena. Good show. Before Glenn Frey died. I was trying to impress a chick. Think the tickets were about 90 bucks a pop in the upper level.

Jackson Browne lived in the apartment downstairs from Henley and Frey in LA.  Browne started writing "Take it Easy" and got stuck after the first verse so he turned it over to Frey who came up with the "Standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona..." verse and finished the song and turned it into the Eagles breakout hit.  Browne played with the Eagles on some of their early stuff and is in the photo on the back cover of the "Desperado" album as one of the dead outlaws.

3rd level = $325 = $225 + $100 fees

Not my fave band, but rather see them than phish or u2.  Dead & co. would have been good.

I saw the Eagles back when they opened the Alpharetta amphitheater.  I was only mildly interested, but it ended up being a fantastic show.  They (collectively and individually) have a great catalog and they played the hits from both.  Probably one of the top 5 shows I've been to.

I remember that and didn't go to it.  It was like midweek and my office bldg on Haynes Br was Shuttle lot C for VWA.  People started tailgating in the parking lot a little after noon.  I was looking out the window like WTF.  No one knew our lot was a VWA lot.  Some Eagles fans are as fat as Vol fans I came to find out.

Haha.  I was not out there tailgating.  I think that show was a couple of nights, but the night we went, a massive storm came through at about 5 when we were making our way there and it started hailing while we were on 400.  I pulled off and found a garage to park in and we sat there for a little while until it died down.  I thought they would cancel the show it was so crazy.
