Awesome concert tonight at Oracle Arena...the boys were in fine form. Being in the second row was fantastic. I actually got a grin out of Joe (at least I am pretty sure I did) but since I was wearing this pinned to my shirt that may be the reason why... :rofl:

I took a ton of other pictures which I will get uploaded as soon as I can and I will write out a review too. Great night that made the trip worthwhile. Tomorrow morning I am hopping the BART into to San Francisco, which is one of my very favorite cities, for a quick day of sightseeing and hopefully a really good Italian meal up in North Beach before I head north again on Monday morning.

Glad you had a great time Cami! Can't wait for your goodies!

And oh my gosh, they are still playing Best of My Love! Yes! I hope to death they do it in Austin, too!

Good show last night....well performed. I've been to many Eagles concerts and I must say that I feel like the guys phoned this one in...their energy level just wasn't up there and they just didn't seem like they were really having a good time, not much fun interaction between them. After the introductions Don said to Timothy that he forgot he was born in Oakland, something about Sacramento not having a hospital or even power way back then, but Timothy came back with a comment about still being younger than Don, I thought that was cute. Don had on a khaki green shirt and full on gray goatee (it looks good on him, I liked it), Glenn had on the bright pink shirt over a t-shirt, Timothy had on a blue/gray shirt (no vest tonight) and Joe had on black jeans and a black and white Ramones t-shirt under a black jacket. Out of all of them, Joe really does look the healthiest. I was so glad they did Best of my love, it sounded great. And my other two favorites Witchy Woman and Waiting in the weeds. Witchy Woman is the first Eagles song that got my attention back in 1972 and to this day it is still my favorite. For a few years they stopped doing it but I'm glad to see it's back. One thing that happened that I thought was a little odd....at the end of the show when they were waving goodbye Timothy stuck his guitar pick in his pocket....he always throws it out into the audience, but not last night. We had great seats (I was especially glad when they removed the piano, it was partly blocking my view of Timothy and totally blocking my view of Don when he played the drums) and I'm so glad I went. A small part of me always thinks "Is this my last Eagles concert" when Desperado starts and I always get a little teary eyed. Hopefully there will be more.:cheers:

Glad you went also Woodstock!! Sorry to hear they were off a bit tho. I have to say I'm surprised to hear that tho since it is the beginning of this leg of the tour. You'd think they'd be well rested and ready to go again. That's disappointing for the money.

Can't wait to see some pictures Cami!! Safe trip home this morning!

WT, love the pin - I'll bet Joe got a real kick out of it. Looking forward to more from you.

Woodstock, thanks for the review and your honesty. Hey, they can't all be great, right? (Selfishly hoping they'll be GREAT in Indy)

I left Oakland a little before six this morning to avoid the rush hour traffic and made it home in a little over six hours. Not bad for a nearly 400 mile drive!

Here is a link to the pictures I took... I haven't really edited or resized them yet but I thought I would rather share now and work on that part later. Just click on the picture below to get to my album on photobucket.

Great shots Cami! Joe looks hot in his black jeans and Glenn or a family member must be coming on here and seeing how much you guys like the pink shirt!

Fantastic pics, Cami!! Love em!! So glad that you got to go.

Woodstock, wish the concert could've been more for you but i'm glad that you got to go and fun regardless.

Koala, thanks for the posting the videos. :thumbsup:

Wt and Ws, thanks for filling us in on the show. It's great to hear all about it from people who know!

Wt, loved your button. Too cute! And your pics are fabulous! Thanks so much! :thumbsup:

Koala, thanks for the vids. Better get them watched before they disappear!

Thanks for the videos, pics and reviews to all of you who were there. I'm delighted to see Glenn :heart: in fuschia (maybe he DOES hear me rave about it :wink:)

Glad you all ahd such a good time too. I suppose WS if you felt they were a bit off it could have been that Don wasn't feeling great as subsequent events have shown.

Sorry for only just getting around to posting, don't know where the days have gone since I got back home.

Had a wonderful time at the show in Oakland - had seats in the FRONT ROW and near enough centre stage:thumbsup:. The boys were in good humour & there were lots of smiles from them. I love watching Joe, he's just a one-off.....and he'll never change!!

Will looked amazingly beautiful :nod: :smitten: and his piano solo on WITW sounded awesome.:bow:

I'm so pleased they've kept 'Best of My Love' in since they played it in Dallas in June. Wish they'd done ASWTDID though; I miss it.

No problem with taking photo's so long as you didn't use a flash-light(security were telling people 'no flash') so I took lots! and as promised I've put them on photobucket to share with you all. I hope you like them.
Here's a little taster, and the link to the rest is below. Enjoy!
(P.S. the photos look best if you open them to full size)

I wonder why that would be? Could it be something to do with a guy named Glenn maybe?
Have you seen the short video clip I posted in the 'Celebration of Eagles Hotness' thread?

Is there a caption in this one do you think? :)

Timothy: "Willie, really?!? I've asked you not to scream for me while we are performing!"

Glenn: "Every show we have to go through this with her! I wish he could shut her up!!!"

:hilarious: Sure wish we could download that picture--that is gorgeous!!!!!

I'm such an idiot!! I just captured it. Can I get in trouble for it since the user doesn't want them downloaded if I put it here? Anyone? Powers that be-can we use screen captures for these kind of situations without getting in trouble? I used the large icon and then captured. Will wait to hear what Soda or Dreamer say.

ETA: It is now my background on my laptop! Just love it!! Such a great find!

I'll leave it to you to find out then Willie, and delete mine....I didn't think of that! :fear:

Glenn: Oh, not THAT again.

I can only give you my own opinion about this. I think if the photographer specifically invoked copyright on the photos and requested that they not be downloaded, then we should not post them. I may be wrong, but I think screenshots are technically legal; however, if the photographer doesn't want us posting them here, then I think we should honor that. You can always contact the photographer to see if they are okay with it.

Soda may have a different take on this, but she may not be around much today. She's the boss though, and the one that is ultimately accountable so I wouldn't post it unless she is okay with it.

03-16-2011, 12:12 PM
If the photographer doesn't want them reposted, then let's not do so. I know, bummer! But hey, if you want to e-mail them or message them and ask them, maybe they'd be OK with it if it's just a photo or two. You never know. It doesn't hurt to ask!

I must be missing something because I saw nothing saying the photos couldn't be downloaded. You can just go 'save as' when you right click on it.

tequila girl
03-16-2011, 06:11 PM
Did you do that and have it work FP? 'cos all I got was "This photo is C(copyright) all rights reserved" :hmm:

I'm getting that now. Five minutes ago I could save them.

Annabel
03-17-2011, 06:23 AM
This is weird. I just tried the link I used from those Flickr photos and it gave me the option to save. Then I re tried it and got the copyright message. Those thing alternate in happenening for me each time I try. :eyebrow:

That is SO weird...I open the Flickr link, enlarge the photo and click "save as" and it lets me do it, although it does have the photographer info in the lower left corner.

TimothyBFan
03-17-2011, 10:26 AM
Still won't let me save it. That's ok--I've got the capture from yesterday.

Anyone's guess on which song they're singing there? Can't figure it out. Joe's in the zone, Glenn is singing with all kinds of emotion and Timothy is apparently lost and looking for someone to tell him what to do next. :hilarious:

Victim of Love
03-17-2011, 01:39 PM
My guess is "Heartache Tonight" because Timothy really gets into his "come on and clap your hands" mode during that one!

Freypower
03-17-2011, 05:56 PM
I agree; Heartache Tonight because Glenn is playing Old Black.
