Ticket anxiety nightmares! I had one of those before Cincinnati, and it all turned out OK.
I had a very strange dream last night, which only involved Glenn!:)
In the dream, I was sitting at a table in a restaurant with my hubby, son, a friend of ours and his two sons, and Glenn! Glenn was seated directly across the table from me. The waitress came by to clear the table, and she started to pick up my plate, which still had plenty of food on it. I said, "Excuse me, but I'm not finished yet". She said rather abruptly, "I still need to take this". I said, "No!" and I grabbed one end of the plate, while she was holding the other, and I tried to wrestle the plate away from her. Finally, I decided she was not going to let go, so I purposely spilled the food all over the table!:hilarious: I then looked up, to see Glenn take out a notebook and pen, and he started to "write her up", almost like a traffic cop would write up a ticket! I remember thinking to myself, "He's taking up for me!", and being very happy about that. Odd dream, but I was happy when I woke up!:thumbsup:
LOL, Stars.
I had an Eagles dream last night! It was a bit odd and quite long and fragmented, so forgive the rambling trip through my unconscious...
It involved me going to a concert with a few friends at a castle. We were told we had to climb over the wall to get in (as you do) but, being my practical self, I found a wooden doorway and pulled both doors apart just enough to slip through. The stage was like the Comedy Store stage - small, low, with chairs literally dotted around the edges of it. I was freaking out as we got closer and realised where we would be sitting - true to life, it was my first time seeing the guys.
Anyway, they started with Busy Being Fabulous, but I can't remember much else. For some reason, we disappeared during the set and only returned as the guys were saying their goodbyes. Don was leaning over the edge of the stage, smiling at people, throwing them little comments, and being REALLY cute. Somehow I ended up on the stage (everyone was kind of just there, mingling) and Don appeared at my side. I can't even remember how he started it, but we were talking about the show and good places to go out in the area. He asked where I was from, I said "Here" and he said "Oh, me too. Originally." :lol: (Shock horror: Texas Cowboy Henley is from Wareham, England)
Anyway, he had a friend of his next to him that I didn't recognise, and Don looked great apart from the fact that he was wearing THE dodgiest old man jumper in the world. I think it had white Christmas trees on it. At one point, he was looking at me and he reached out and traced my forehead, nose and mouth with his finger. He said that I had the same beautiful profile as Lisa (Er, thanks... who the heck is Lisa?) and invited me to stay for the after-party.
Then my friend and I excused ourselves and I dragged her off to some really grimy bathrooms where we had a shower (?) and talked excitedly about what had happened. Unfortunately I didn't get to see Don again though, because on our way out of the bathrooms, we ran into one of my other friends who told us our fourth friend had gone off with Don's unknown acquaintance. My friend went into a full-on, EastEnders-style RANT about "how dare she go off with him and leave her friends, I would never do that, she is so disloyal, ditching us for someone just cuz he's in a FREAKIN' BAND!!!" I was standing there very sheepish, knowing what I was about to do, given half the chance!
Unfortunately, then I woke up.
I'm not surprised you had an Eagles dream last night Lou :wink:
LOL. Yes, I've been cajoling my brain into it for long enough...
Hey! Were YOU the Lisa he was talking about? :stunned:
Wow that was some dream Lou
:spin: Great dream!! I know why you had a dream about "For some reason, we disappeared during the set and only returned as the guys were saying their goodbyes." You've heard the reviews and know everything to a T by now, and figured you didn't need to stick around to see it all. ;)
Heh, you may be onto something there, Willie. I did think it was funny, after reading Soda's brief review of last night, that the only song I could remember was BBF - and yet that's the one they've apparently dropped!
I had a dream last night. Here goes.
They were playing in a park - Sydney's Hyde Park, where concerts of this type would never be staged, but anyway. The atmosphere was very relaxed and people kept coming and going, with wine casks and picnic baskets.
Then various backing band members started wandering around - the Mighty Horns were at the front of the stage talking to people. Then Steuart appeared and did something to his amp.
Tim came on stage and tested his mic by singing a song with the backing band. It was slow and soft and was a bit like The Way We Were in that 'memories' featured prominently.
Then Don appeared. He looked a bit like he does in the LROOE photo. He was wearing a blue denim shirt and shades and looked very cool. He sat at a keyboard (!) and started talking to someone on a phone. He looked relaxed and happy. At that stage I (in the dream) could have gone right up and talked to him, as the stage was very low. Did I? Of course I didn't. I wandered off, too shy.
If Joe was there it was only briefly. I think a blonde head did cross my vision but I was looking at Don.
I wandered away and then a voice drifted back to me. 'Look who we just saw. Julie will be pleased'.
Before anything else could happen I woke up.. I have one question about all of this. I know very well none of this can happen to me in real life, but to quote If I Was A Rich Man, would it spoil some vast eternal plan if it happened in a dream, for heaven's sake?!!:depressed: :weep:
Maybe your subconscious is trying to separate you from Glenn for some reason.
Like I've said before, I very seldom dream but I had a strange one last night and it was very vivid and seemed so real.
It started out with me walking up to some little hut kind of thing on a beautiful beach and I was greeted by --get this---Jimmy Buffet who said "welcome to paradise" and he took me by the hand and led me to a table and we sat down and were served some fancy tropical drinks and were just talking about the beach and all. Then he nods his head towards 3 men walking our way and said he wanted me to meet these friends of his. It was Don, Glenn & Timothy and dressed in hawaiian shirts and shorts and barefooted. When they got to our table, Jimmy introduced me as his fiance, :hilarious: and told them that I had decided to move to paradise also. They welcomed me and Don said that they had gotten fed up and decided to move there too several months before. Timothy told me that he knew I was going to love it there and that we would all be very happy together then winked at me and took my hand. I looked at Jimmy and he was nodding.
Then Larry's alarm woke me up. :sad:
I do believe PARADISE that would have been!! But why Jimmy Buffet I'm not sure. Isn't like I even like his music much. The only thing I can think of is that Tim has worked with him so much that that must be where it came from. :hilarious:
That is a wild dream Willie :hilarious:
ALL FOUR WILLIE? you ambitious woman you! *G* Joe must have been with me. And Jimmy's cool... I am a Parrot Head, I have to admit. A JB Fan from way back... You've got to love songs like Cheese Burger in Paradise and Honey, Let's Get Drunk and Screw. Classics!
It's a great song!! you'll love it *G*

That just cracked me up!! :hilarious: Hey---who's the sexy bass player to Jimmy's left? :)
This is more what he looked like in my dream.

Like I said never been a big fan so why it was so vivid I really can't tell ya!
LOL Sounds like some fun dream Willie! But something tells me Jimmy would come to regret inviting Tim to the island.... lol
P.S. That Buffett video proves Tim CAN pull off short hair! He's not showcased well in this one, but he is in some others.
This dream had to have happened because of my excitement about Don's upcoming solo concert here in Oklahoma...
I dreamed that a few of us Borderers were partying it up at my apartment before the show, watching the dvds, singing, laughing, just having a good time and getting pumped for the concert. I've met a couple of my fellow Borderers and have seen pics of others but I specifically remember seeing DonFan, Brooke, Lou, Soda, and Rhonda in my dream. We got to the concert a little early so we were just hanging out by some random doors and some guy comes out and asks if we were waiting to see Don. Of course we said yes and he started to lead us backstage to Don's dressing room for a meet and greet. Just as we were about to walk through the door I woke up. Dang it!!:brickwall: I always wake up when the good parts are about to happen.
Doesn't it make you want to go back to sleep so you can finish your dream? :nod:
Shoot! I want her to go back to sleep, too! lol
Whoa, Peek--what an awesome dream--I'm so glad I was there! Go back to sleep and give us Part 2! :twisted:
Yes! We demand an encore!
I wish I could say that the dream continued last night but that would be a lie. I want to know what was about to happen just as much as the rest of you. Rhonda, I'm sorry to say that Joe was no where to be found in my dream. Although i know that it would've been great if he were there.
I didn't have time to get online and post this yesterday so I wrote on paper what I could remember during my breaks at work last night.
This dream occurred the night before last and it is definitely one of the oddest Eagles related dreams that I've ever had. Like my previous dream that I posted, I'm sure that this is because of the upcoming concert that Don is doing here in Oklahoma. Warning: It's a little long.
The dream started out with me holding my cousin’s baby and then all of a sudden I'm standing front row center at Don's concert...and I'm still holding the baby. Don's up on stage singing his heart out and after he finishes the song he looks over at me, walks to the edge of the stage and we just start chatting it up during the middle of the concert and nobody in the audience seemed to mind. I don't remember everything from our conversation but I do remember Don making some nice compliments on the cuteness of my cousin's baby (and she is a cutie). I apologized about him not getting his rose at the Columbia concert a few weeks ago (I threw all the guys roses at that concert and all but one of the roses made it on stage…many of you know that really happened). He told me that he remembered the other guys getting roses and was wondering why he didn’t get one. He said he felt a little left out (Awww, I’m so sorry Don). After what seemed like a long talk, I told Don that I had to take the baby back to my cousin and he said "Okay, I should really finish up this concert anyway. It was really nice talking to you." My cousin was sitting about 15 rows back and just as I made my way to where she was sitting, we heard a loud boom. Something went wrong with the sound equipment. Nothing was working and Don had to yell to let everybody know that they were having technical problems and it would be a while before they got everything fixed. Next thing I remember, I was walking around backstage and talking to a guy that, in my dream, was a friend of mine. I was telling him about how excited I was to have talked to Don and about how I’m a huge fan of his and the guy told me that he can get me a meet and greet with Don. For whatever reason, I told the guy “Thanks, but I don’t want to bother Don. I know he has a lot of things to do.” (WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING?!!!) The guy was insisting that I go with him to meet Don and I kept telling him “No”. He pulls me into the room where Don was and just as I turned around to walk out, I bumped into a shelf and knocked over everything on it. I was so embarrassed and everyone, including Don, was staring at me. Just as I was about to run out of there, my phone rang and woke me up.
I can’t believe that I declined a Don Henley meet and greet. I would NEVER do that in real life. Good thing it was just a dream.
Peek, it's funny that the guy was trying to get you to go to a meet n greet with Don when essentially you had just had a 'meet n greet' with him during his concert!
You sure do have a lot of dreams!
Yeah, i thought that was weird about the meet and greets too. It seemed more like a random conversation than a M&G when i was talking to Don during the concert. Even still, whether it's just a dream or in real life, Always say YES when offered a chance to meet Don.
I just about always remember my dreams but I don't remember everything that happened or everything that was said. Before these last two dreams I posted, it had been quite a while that I had an Eagles related dream.
Very interesting Peek! Yeah, that dream definitely did not reflect reality regarding the meet'n'greet. Probably, though, it reflects your subconscious conflict between wanting to be close to Don and know that as a fan, you won't be able to and therefore protecting yourself against disappointment. Just a guess!
I had a kind of odd Glenn dream a couple nights ago, which also had to do with a meet'n'greet. I dreamt Glenn was holding a meet'n'greet at the end of this long darkened hallway with dark red carpeting and dark mahogany walls. Lots of people were lined up to see him. They extended all the way down the hallway. I looked to see if there was anyone I knew, but couldn't find anybody. In fact, for some reason, everyone in the line seemed to resent me even being there, and were glaring at me. I went to the end of the line and the people in front of me started whispering about me nastily. Feeling ostracized and lonely, I glanced behind me and saw some movement in the shadows, just around the corner. Since I was last in line, I saw this and no one else did. I realized somehow that this was Glenn and quickly left the line to go around the corner.
Once around the corner, I met up with Glenn. He presented me with a plate of appetizers - chicken fingers and little hot dogs with dipping sauces. Yum! I took the plate and sat on the floor to eat. "Thanks!" I told him happily. I asked him if he wanted any, but he just shook his head, said "Those are for you," then sat down on a stool (randomly placed in the middle of a hallway!) and watched me chow down in companionable silence, lol. Then he said "I gotta do the meet'n'greet, but wait here - I'll be back." He went off and I woke up before he came back. At least the dream ended happily, though!
Soda, I have to tell you, I laughed so hard when I read this. I just love your dreams! They're so random. I love the visual of Glenn bringing you a plate of chicken wings and Vienna sausages and you sitting on the floor and chowing down while he keeps you company! LOL that's awesome!!
Jess, Funny you'd be so open and welcome to talking to Don on stage DURING the concert and running from a backstage M&G! *G* but we know better *G*
Soda, I too was laughing out loud as I read your dream- chicken fingers and little hot dogs - for some reason that's just so da** funny!
Soda, I love your dream. Shows Glenn :heart: has his priorities right when it comes to his real fans. Lol! I'd probably have been in the crowd but I wouldn't have been hostile to you!
I had a dream last night that I was listening to the radio when a snippet of POMPOY came on, followed by an announcement that Glenn :heart: was going to do a solo show in Dublin and that tickets would be on sale the following Thursday. I Grabbed Laura ad we started dancing with joy. I knew the money for front row would be found by that Thursday and I also remember texting GEF, Soda, and FP specifically!
I've been getting a lot of sleep this week :wink: .Here's another: The fortress was inspired I think by one on a hill which we visited in Budapest last year.
I was dreaming that I was visiting an old fortress on a hill and the sun was just setting. I was with my parents and we were just leaving when I saw a hall (like a great hall in a castle) made up with mics for a gig. Then I looked to my left and Glenn :heart: was there just waiting to go on, dressed as in NFA. So I walked up to him and said 'excuse me, would you mind if my mom took my pic with you'. And he smiled really big and nice and said
'Sure Honey........Why Not?'
and started to put his arm round me :inlove: Then I woke up, with that lovely warm fuzzy feeling. I just wanted to head right back there!
Last night I had a nice dream:
The phone rang and somebody said I would have won tickets for a Glenn Frey concert! The first row! :partytime:
The concert was brilliant he played The Allnighter, POMPOY, Partytown, River of Dreams and a many more songs , also , he still played some Eagles songs.
Then he announced a specially gast and Don Henley came on the stage! Don played some of his Solo songs and a few Eagles songs, too, to the end have sung both together Desperado.
Ooh, I hope this dream was in real-time. What a great way to spend 2 or 3 hours of your night!
That is great, Koala.
This is really getting into the realms of fantasy now, but wouldn't it be great if Glenn and Don played some of their solo songs together (not the ones they have done with the band).
The idea of them singing Desperado together is interesting. They could switch verses. They would, of course, BOTH have to stand centre stage not playing guitar (ahem... see below).
I like your thinking, Fp!
