Today in Eagles History

[Brooke]

On September 25th it will be 41 years since I first saw the Eagles at Dillon Stadium in Hartford.

That's cool! Do you remember it?

Yeah, because some people DON'T remember it, do they Brooke?

Im starting to associate the 'growing nose' smiley with you!

Sad, but true!

I do remember seeing them lined up on stage, looking like miniature people because I was so high up in the rafters.....where all the smoke drifted to.........

I thought you were going to say "because I was so high"! Lol!

I agree with PM-- I think it should read, "I was so high FROM the smoke drifting to the rafters...."

Pretty important day in Eagles history: the anniversary of Joe joining the Eagles is today!

[SoaringRockyMountainWay]

Yaaaaay! I'm so glad Joe joined. He's awesome!

Happy 38th Anniversary to Joe. So glad he joined the group.

Sorry to be a day late with this post, but I wanted to recognize this moment in Eagles history. Joe joining the band was definitely a defining moment for the band. Speaking for myself, I am so glad he did. I'll repeat what I've often said before. I love the early sound of the band including Bernie's country-rooted contributions. However, if the band had not changed musical directions at the time they did by bringing Joe in, I don't believe they would be considered the legends they are today. Amping up their sound showed the world how diverse they were, capable of doing virtually any genre of music at a very high level.
