Sorry it's takin' me so long to upload all the pixs and videos from Felder's solo show at the Spotlight casino but I had a lot of them and it took forever. The show was great and it was nice to hear some of the old Eagle songs that the Eagles no longer do like "Those Shoes", "Victim of Love" and "Already Gone." Also, check out my video of Felder's new song "Over You." Here is the link on photobucket to my album of pix and videos.

Forgot to mention that Felder had Frank Simes on guitar borowing a page from the other Don's book.

Thank you so much for uploading all of these! I'm going to go ahead and move this to the concert review forum. (I'm so excited to hear "Over You"!)

Just had a chance to see all of these videos. Again, thank you so much!!

I really like "Over You" - it's a lovely song. I think this stripped-down sound works well for him.

For the curious, I transcribed the lyrics as I understand them (I'm unsure at some parts - Carol-Lynn, is this how you heard it?):

Over You

I'm sittin' outside your window tonight
Havin' a drink with the moon
I was wonderin' if I treated you right
And just gave up too soon
I was wonderin' if the last time we talked
Might be the last time
'Cause I knew that when you turned and walked
You were no longer mine

And it's gonna be a long time before I can think about it
Without breaking into tears
And it's gonna be a long time before I can talk about it
And get over all those years
And over you
Over you

I'm not one to hold onto things
But I've held onto you
In the hopes that some dream might bring
Something we could work through
But I lived in your memories (?)
And the kisses you gave
I'm not sure that I'll ever be
Something you feel the need to save

And it's gonna be a long time before I can think about it
Without breaking into tears
And it's gonna be a long time before I can talk about it
And get over all those years

And all over me (?)
And every thought
And everything that I do
I've learned so much from this lesson you've taught
The next time I love, I'll know what not to do
Over you
Over you

Think it's gonna be a long time before I can think about it
Without breaking into tears
And it's gonna be a long time before I can talk about it
And get over all those years

And it's gonna be a long time before I can think about it
Without breaking into tears
And it's gonna be a long time before I can talk about it
And get over all those years
And over you
Over you

I'm just not over, over, over and over, over and over you
I just can't get over, over, over and over, over and over you
Over you

Never quite over you

Perhaps it could have been written with the Eagles in mind...

Sounds good to me Nancy. :applause:I liked the solo acoustical presentation as well. The guy's got talent no matter which way you slice it and he still looks great. :nahnah: I love the line "having a drink with the moon." Steuart Smith does a really great job for the Eagles but Felder is irreplacable :rockon:and it's too bad :weep:that everyone can't "mend fences." :heart: Maybe someday they will-Hell froze over once before.:thumbsup:

And, yes I too wondered about "Over You" being about the Eagles or his ex-wife. More than likely the song is a combination of both experiences.

Felder was very relaxed and antimated and quite chatty. He thanked the audience for their warm reception several times even going so far as to express the fact that he wished "he could take us with him" or words to that effect. He won me over when he said he admired quite a few Stevie's including, you guessed it Nancy, Stevie Nicks right before he played two other Stevie's (Wonder and Ray Vaughn's) songs (Supersition & Pride & Joy.)

Now I'm just passing the time until StageCoach.:nahnah: Less than two weeks to go. The weather here in SoCal has been fairly moderate lately and I'm hoping it will stay that way not that the unforgivingn desert sun could deter my spirit. Look out TimothyB-I'm coming up behind you, swear I'm going to......:heart::heart::heart:

Chow Bella!

Very cool C7L! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

As for Frank Simes playing? :shock: I'm shocked Don H would allow that!

:drummer::applause: I know. Couldn't agree more. I recognized Frank Simes right off the bat but, until Felder introduced him, I thought I was mistaken and had convinced myself that no way would a member of Henley's band appear with Felder. He mentioned all of the bands Simes played with but skipped Henleys'. Probably afraid Henley might want royalties. :nahnah:

I'm impressed about Simes being there, too. Of course, we'll have to look for him at the upcoming Henley solo shows to make sure he's indeed still part of his band! lol

Interesting idea about "Over You" being at least partially about the Eagles. I think the only part that doesn't really fit with that is the bridge about "next time I love, I'll know what not to do." Otherwise, you could definitely apply it. Perhaps it is indeed a mixture of the Eagles and the end of his 30+ year marriage. It always makes me sad when couples who have stayed together that long divorce.
