I'm SO happy right now as I am going to the Eagles shows in Houston & Dallas in September. :D I can hardly believe it! :spin:

At the London O2 show back in March I met 2 ladies from Texas at the ILAA pre-show party. We've been keeping in touch since then and I am going to stay with them for 2 weeks at their home in Houston. We have just got our Eagles tickets for both shows - 5 star ILAA. :yay:

I have never flown alone before & this will also be my first long-haul flight, so it's quite a big thing for me but very exciting.

I never thought that I would get to see the Eagles in the US - and now it's happening. My flight is booked and I'm counting the days. I going to see my darling Will again (twice) soon. :inlove:

EAGLES shows really do change lives :!:

LOL

A very happy Steph

Whoo hoo, Steph!!! Do you want a travelling companion on the plane? :wink: Seriously though, that is wonderful for you and how nice to have made some new friends through the Eagles.

I'll try to get some photos - all depends on the security guards!! You know I will do my best(I'll smuggle my camera in inside my underwear if necessary!!!!)

I'm counting the days and am very excited. It just goes to show that you never know what's around the corner. A few months back I wouldn't have even dared to dream of going to the US and seeing the Eagles there.

Yes, it's great to have made new friends through an Eagles concert, and they really are true Eagles fans and lovely people.

Steph, you can stick your camera in your waistband in front (so they can't pat you down) and wear a loose top to cover it. Put black electric tape over all the lights, dim your screen if you can, and don't use flash - it won't do you any good anyway.

Good luck !

Steph, while you're in Houston, be sure to check out Escalante's for some delicious Tex-Mex. Best chili con queso in Texas!

I'm gonna try to go to the Dallas show. I think one of the tv stations here is having a contest to win tickets and I think the classic rock station might be having a contest too.

I hope you manage to make it there Holly! Fingers crossed for those contests.

Less than a week until I fly out to Texas, and 8 days until the first Houston show. Am I excited? you bet!
I still can't really believe I'm going to be there, seeing the Eagles in the US. :partytime:
Looking forward to seeing my darling Will again too:inlove:

Steph - I know how excited you must be getting. I hope your trip to the U.S. is all that you wish for, and then some. Say hi to Will and the guys for us and, I hope you'll come back and tell us all about it when you can. Be safe and have a blast! :nod: :nod:

I fly to Texas tomorrow morning. My first Eagles concert is on Tuesday. I am SO excited. As Don's song says......

When the hot September sun down in Texas
has sucked the streams bone dry
and turned the roads to dust......

I'll be there...........and I'll make a point of 'Talking to the Moon'.

Don't know when I'll be able to report back on the concerts, but I will at some time and if I can get some photo's I'll post them.

LOL

Steph, I felt much the same way the first time I flew to Texas to see Don.
I love "Talking to the Moon" and I also thought of that song on my trip. I had seen the Eagles before in Atlanta, but Texas was where I actually got to meet Don after his lecture at UNT that fall, so the "hot September sun down in Texas" was shining on me that time too.

Have a TERRIFIC time. Can't wait to hear all about it!!
