I live in Houston. I have been an Eagles fan from the beginning. Yes, I bought Take It Easy on a 45 when it first came out! Yeah, those little round disks with a big hole in the middle played on a record player.

My first Eagles show was at Texas Jam in 1980. I've been to shows from Hawaii to Glasgow,Scotland, so I guess I fall into the obsessed category.

I've met a lot of nice people along the way and count some of them as best friends.:rockguitar:

Welcome HE! You've found a fantastic place to work on that obsession! Very cool that you've gotten to go all the way to Hawaii and Scotland to see them!

Jump right in! We love to talk about America's best band here! :wave:

Welcome HLIVEAGLES. Glad you've joined us here on The Border. Well I've done a bit of traveling to see the band myself, but not as far as you. Some people may called us obsessed, but around here, we're just normal. :grin: Hope you join in on the discussions and enjoy yourself here.

(And OBTW - I remember 45's too).

BTW, HLIVE, were you at the Glasgow 2006 show? If so, I was there, too!

They were great for Physics instruction also! There are a group of us here on The Border who still have a strong attachment for turntables; or rather the media for which they were made!

A large part of my collection of Albums was given away to my Niece way back in the '70s. Not my favorites but a lot of albums that I had that contained only one or two tracks that I liked. Then disaster! Pipes froze and burst flooding the room I had set up for "listening". The albums were stacked on edge all around the room against the walls. Ruined the covers. Broke my heart.

Yes, I was at the Glasgow 2006 show sitting next to three brother from the US. They decided to take a trip without their wives and just happened to come when the Eagles were playing. We had a great time with them.
