Just opened six threads on this. Obviously, there are a lot of gaps in the schedule, so I would definitely expect them to announce more for the UK and the rest of Europe.

Here's a link to the article that came out. I have to day, Don has it nailed. It's definitely a high quality performance, and VERY consistent night after night.

I might be an atheist but someone must be conspiring against me up there. The start and end dates for the UK / Ireland there are roughly the start and end dates of my uni exams for First Year. I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

Never mind, just realised my exams finish two days before the London gig. I wonder if I can justify going to all three of the London, Leeds and Manc gigs... :D

I'm a bit overwhelmed. I attended my first Eagles concert last week and when I bought those tickets, I told myself that if I liked it, I could get better ones for a UK show when they went on sale. With US dates lined up until March, that seemed a long way off and I though I'd have plenty of time to make my decision.

Then comes this news of the UK tour with public sale starting on Friday. Worse still, presales start tomorrow and I've realised that I qualify for that (O2 is good for all venues, it seems). If I go, I need to fit around my son's exam timetable and that's tricky this far ahead.

Am I really grumbling about what should be a good thing?

Short message: if you have an O2 phone, quickly sign up to O2 Priority.

I can totally understand where you're coming from! I felt the same way about the first dates here in July. We all suspected July and August, but I was caught by surprise by tickets going on sale so early, in the recent past they were usually two months out. Then the shows were announced in March and tickets went on sale nearly immediately. I had plans for where the money would come from, but no way to get it sooner. I was fortunate in that my income tax refund would cover the early concerts, so I filed that night and fortunately the IRS got me the money before the American Express card was due!

UTW, I understand too. At least yours seems to be a time issue and not a money issue, although I guess it doesn't really matter when the bottom line is that you just can't go. I hope you'll be able to work it out; if not, be thankful that you got to see them once on this tour.

It turns out that the Birmingham show is during the half-term holiday so that's looking possible.

When they add additional dates, is it usually repeats at a venue or do they add new venues? I realise I don't even know what arena venues there are that are a suitable size.

It can really depend. I know thats saying nothing though!
I know how you feel. Just home from NYC after 2 gigs, and here I will be shelling out more money for the European dates. LOL! But it has to be done, and I am just so grateful that they are playing here that I will make it happen!!

looking forward to the O2 London gigs, 20 mins drive from home, but the main pain is the tickets go on sale whilst I am at Hospital appointments this week, dag nab it, by hook or by crook I hope to be there, maybe Xmas gift from the wife ? there goes her Dishwasher.

PS if anyone get any spare good seat keep me in mind.

Regards

Great! And the O2 is the right side of London for me although the tickets usually cost an arm and a leg. Hope they do that priority seating thing. Saw them there last time and they just seemed so distant ... plus at that time I wasn't Timothy Twisted.

Meanwhile, here's some info on the Birmingham show:

Thanks for the Birmingham link - it gives the ticket prices. It's about a 2 hour drive or train journey but it's probably the closest they'll come to me.

Just looked at 02 site. They're advertising Premium Club and Club Experience as options. Can't find out what they consist of. Anyone know anything?

Wonderful news for everyone across the pond! I'm so happy for all of you!

Side note: I would think they would use HotE tour photos for advertising though. They are using a LROOE one.

Glastonbury 2014 is from 25th to 29th June.

Just a thought.

Never been one for festivals but the thought of the Eagles doing an outdoor, daylight concert like the did for California Jam in 1974 might just tempt me to go and sit in a field in Somerset next summer :lol: Never followed the festival but don't the huge names get saved up for the final evening?

I would stick to indoor gigs for the Eagles, see them at the Hop Farm in 2011, they were not a patch on a stadium or arena gig, mind you I am not sure if that was their fault or the sound stage ?

It had crossed my mind that Eagles were a possibility for Glastonbury, although the betting seems to be on Fleetwood Mac. Unfortunately, the tickets sold out within hours.



Eavis said earlier this summer that 2014′s crowd could expect a veteran act to rival the Rolling Stones, who made their Glastonbury debut (http://metro.co.uk/2013/06/30/the-rolling-stones-set-glastonbury-festival-alight-3862219/) as one of 2013′s headline acts.

The good thing is that the BBC provide excellent live coverage.

Not a fan of Festivals either. Tent and a possibly muddy field not me.
Will be relying on BBC2 for Glastonbury coverage from the comfort of the sofa.

Cool Roxy :-) Hope they will come to Hamburg like they did the last time. And I am sure Eventim will do this lovely EXCLUSIVE presale crap like they usually do for these huge events *sigh*

Just been looking at Eagles Fastlane Facebook page and someone was wondering if the European audiences understood what the band were singing about and was there a translation for them. I can just see someone standing at the side of the stage singing a translation. Needless to say there are a couple of well deserved sarcastic remarks from people particularly from England, which is part of Europe.

Patronising in the extreme. These songs are now so well known that you don't have to be a native English speaker to understand them. The fact is that most Europeans now speak English to a degree these days. I belong to a postcard swapping site & every card I receive, including all from Europe, is written in English. In fact in my entire two years there, I have only received one card that wasn't in English (it was in German).
