    And this is the perfect place to exercise english.
    I'm still so excited by the experience of seeing them live that I found myself looking how much a flight from Austria to Los Angeles would cost, just in case there would be new show dates.
    Do you think that there are some people around here living in Europe who would be crazy enough to travel to the US westcoast to see the Eagles ?

    Welcome from Ireland to both of you Claudine and Ilia. I've seen the Eagles twice in my home city Dublin in Ireland. I have also travelled to Belfast on the most recent leg of the tour and was at the opening LROOE gig in London. I think if time, money and work are not a problem I would be quite willing to travel to see them in the states at least once.

    But as you can see no doubt from my username, Glenn is my favourite and what I would really LOVE to do would be to catch one or more of his solo gigs if he decides to do some in the coming months.

    Troub and I were saying that a dream trip would include a full Eagles gig, a Don solo and a Glenn solo all in one trip. May as well wish!

    I dream of a Border Party (followed by a concert of course!)

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Ah, happy memories.
    Soda - I just let out a sigh reading your post about our meetings with Glenn. It warms my heart and brings a smile to my face whenever I think about it, too. I still just shake my head and say "WOW"!!! I will never "get over it"!

    And how fun would it be to one day be able to have a real Border get together!!! I have so enjoyed meeting up with other fans and going to shows with others that I have met on the board the past few years.

    That would really be a dream trip... !! Number 1 band, number 1 man and number 2 man.... Sounds perfect! I'd join you ...

    But I think that especially Glenn needs a rest to take care of his voice. And we all know that he has other health problems.. Do you think they'll tour Europe again? I think that we have to travel abroad (means US) to see them again... Would be nice to go together!

    Very good idea - would be nice to meet other fans in real life not only trough the internet...

    I had before the concert in Hamburg, a short but very nice meeting with Easyfeeling. It was really great to meet another Border!

    It's great to have this board, it's a place to meet like-minded people and it maybe offers the chance to get together with others for a concert (like in your case).

    Apart from my husband I don't have any Eagles fans around me. I'm glad my husband likes their music and would join me to a concert in Zurich anytime, but he's not a diehard fan, so he wouldn't travel with me to other concerts (which I can understand).

    I'm sure if they would tour Europe again I would find very nice people here to meet. And there are a few living quite close to me, that's cool.
