Yes Dreamer - we definitely need to make another trip there since you were not able to make it last time. And thank you Pippin, we will for sure let you know!
I had a wonderful time when Soda and I made the trek there (in 2015?). It seems so long ago!

No, it was 2014, on the fourth of July weekend. Over five years ago now. Happy times!

Ladies, next time, come in the fall. July is too blasted HOT! October is good! Or even November! :grin:

Hi CA - I could not agree more ! I feel one thing that was great about the Eagles was when they had more than one person singing all the songs. I really loved when Don and Glenn split the vocals like the did in the early days. HC should have had Glenn singing at least one more song. I would go for LITFL - perfect for him.

I miss them all singing too.
Re: Eagles Mentions in the Press
Yep - I've been saying for a long time that I thought Glenn should have sang Life in the Fast Lane. I've heard him perform the song live and he does a great job with it. I'm not saying it would have been a better song with Glenn doing it, but I think it would have been equally as good. Besides he was the one that had the concept for the song and when he heard Joe playing that now famous riff, he immediately thought 'Hey, that's life in the fast lane'. I wish he hadn't had the mindset that Don's voice was better suited for the rockier uptempo songs. I mean heck - if he could pull off Heartache Tonight and even win a grammy for best rock vocal performance, then he surely could have done justice to LIFL. :nod:
And just one other observation about Don's lop-sided number of lead vocals. You have to take into consideration that he gets credits for lead vocals in songs where he only sings a a few lines like Ol' 55, After the Thrill Is Gone, and What Do I Do with My Heart. I totally agree that I love the songs where Don and Glenn share lead vocals, but, in some cases, for example, Do Something or Teenage Jail, does it really add anything to the song to have another vocalist come in just for a couple of lines?

That could be too, KW.
Many times I've typed the word I wanted to use and then look back and it has 'corrected' it to what they think it should be. :rolleyes:
And being ocd about it I then have to go correct it to what I wanted!
