    The Eagles have their fans soaring
    FANS of the Eagles got an early Christmas present at their Rod Laver Arena show last night.

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

    Thanks again for all posting the links to all of these reviews, Koala. The Melbourne reviews are more positive than in some of the other Australian cities. Looks like they may be dropping Guilty of the Crime, too.

    These critics "get it"! So glad they are finally getting the credit that they deserve.

    No more GOTC? That surprises me.

    Thanks for the link, Koala!

    They did BBF & GOTC at precisely one show on November 30 & then both songs were unceremoniously dropped. They did Somebody at all Sydney shows (I assume they did it on the last Ent Cent show because they did it at Acer the first night) until the last night at Acer.

    I honestly believe that if they had toured closer to the album's release those songs would have been received more positively; I also think the band didn't give them a chance. A blogger pointed out that the 30/11 show was in fact the last to go on sale & therefore the audience was not the hardcore, most enthusiastic fans but the ones who decided to go eventually when the show was announced.

    Paul Cashmere is always positive & while I am grateful for his praise of Glenn, it would be nice if that extended to his singing & not just his Master of Ceremonies role.

    Thanks FP, I had forgotten it was dropped so soon. At least "Somebody" hung around for a little longer.
