Morning all. The sun has risen and so have I-I think. Part of me is on terra firma and part of me is suspended in mid-air, hanging effortlessly onto the still echoing chords reverberating through-out the Inland Empire following the triumphant return of the post-CalJam Eagles to Ontario, Ca.

The show was A-May-Hey-Zing! The crowd was wild and loud and the Eagles literally turned back the hands of time for all the bounching-baby-boomers in attendance (including yours truly.)

Despite Glenn's exhortation to "Take It Easy", we danced (like no one was watching) in the aisles to Henley's "Boys of Summer", laughed unabashedly at Glenn's same oh-so-tired, are-you-kidding-me, jokes, and basked glowingly in Joe's warm impish smiles as he shredded our hearts on his seemingly endless collection of classic Fender guitars. But the most memorable part for me, was getting another special "wave" from TimmyB.

Know this: Timmy held his own last night and went "one more mile" sheltering us with his "parachute" as he lovingly guided us through the halls of our small portion of the Eagles' "Hotel California" just "because he thought he should." :thumbsup: Love you TimmyB!

Can't wait for ChulaV.:partytime: Pictures to follow later in the week.

I completely forgot to mention that, as perdicted, Henley made mention that the Eagles played Cal Jam back in 1974 which, as I mentioned before, was held on the land where the CBBA now stands.

Thanks Nancy.

If these guys get any hotter, we're all going to melt.

I must say a big OH YEAH for Joe's forearms! He looks so masculine and rock star-ish there. Delicious.

CL--I totally agree with you favorite-mine too!! But I will agree, Joe is looking very rock starish in that picture, from head to toe-the hair, the jeans, the tshirt, the wrist band....WOW:shock:.

CL--once again thanks for always sharing all your experiences with us!!

Sorry this took me so long but I managed to catch a cold and have been off kilter for the last couple of days...

Ontario was the first show on my concert odyssey last week. I ended up in the 5th row center courtesy of Carol-lyn (thanks again :)). The venue looked like every other arena I have been in lately though this one was exceptionally warm, at least up front. The guys were in a fun mood and did a lot of joking with the audience and each other. I always love to see that because it just makes the show that much better.

Don was wearing a light colored button down shirt and jeans. Timothy had on a lovely silky black shirt and reddish-brown jeans. Joe wore a stripped jacket over a black tee with silver chevron and blue jeans. He later lost the jacket (and gave us a look at those wonderful forearms of his that make me weak in the knees). Glenn started out the night in a plaid shirt over a white tee and jeans. However after the intermission he came back out wearing the pink shirt we all love seeing him in (and he looked fantastic in it as always!). And then at the end he lost the overhsirt all together and was just in his tee...:faint:

After 7BR and How Long, Glenn did the assisted living tour bit. Before they sang Lyin Eyes Glenn talked about Dan Tana's and how they used to do everything fast when they were young. He also used the plaintiff dedication for it though I would have sworn this was the only time in the four shows I was at last week (I don't remember it at Chula Vista even though one of the reviews said he did use it). He also told us the story of taking waltzing lessons at Arthur Murray as a boy and that the next song (TITTL) was a waltz.

Tim did seem a little tired when when it was his turn to speak but his voice was strong when he sang and he looked good even though he seemed a bit thinner than usual.

Don seemed to be in an especially chipper mood that night and when he was intro-ing Long Run he mentioned the fact that they had been in Ontario for CalJam back in 1977 and then he looked out audience and said "we are going to do one more song" and paused, grinned and said "that's it, just one more song". Then he laughed and told us that they would be back to play a long time after taking a break.

Joe seemed to be having a good time on stage and it showed in his playing. He really rocked In the City and especially on Walk Away (I never get tired of hearing him do that song). When he intro'd LBGTM he joked that it started out as love song that went nuclear on him. And when he and Glenn had their guitar duel before Funk 49 they were both very animated.

I had a great time at this show. I had an excellent seat, a great view of all the guys, and they were having a good time with each other and the audience. It was an auspicious start to my week of Eagles.

Sadly I did not get a lot of pictures. My poor slightly elderly camera couldn't adjust to the light very well so most of the pictures came out blurry but I did get a few and I have linked them here. Happy to say I got one of Glenn in each of his shirts and of Joe both with and sans jacket. *G*

Hartles - are you saying you saw Jackson Browne with the in 1974 or that you saw this show, or both?

And welcome!
