It's cool to see that they play more shows, but I really hope that they announce shows for the UK soon!

Well, Iceland is a first.

I just posted this in the John Mellencamp thread, but others might have a few comments. I thought it'd be a great idea for the Eagles to do:

Hell YEAH I'd be interested! Pick me, pick me!!!
It's a really cool idea.

Of course, with the Eagles there would probably be all sorts of rules and documentation to sign (no I won't take video clips of whole songs & post them on You Tube, yes I'll make sure I get some photos of you all looking GORGEOUS, no I won't take any photos if by some divine intervention your pants fell down on stage, yes I'd be honoured to let you post my photos on your website... okay, now the dreams are turning to outright fantasy!!

And don't you need a fun, dependable assistant???

Well of course

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Okay - you ladies have got my attention, now! I like what I'm reading here!

Check out what Joe says about the upcoming tour in this latest interview:

"As for the Eagles, Walsh said the Los Angeles band is taking a few months off to retool its live show and revamp its set list.

“We don't want to become a Vegas lounge act,” he said. “We're not done yet, but we need a new show. Everybody's seen our show. ... I think we're going to maybe do a retrospective, almost like a documentary. We're gonna dig up old songs from ‘Desperado' and ‘On the Border,' and we have tons of footage and video stuff. So we're gonna put that all together as a visual from just the early days and play music from the various periods while you're watchin' that.”

It sounds awesome!!
