    Hi, Shoey, and welcome to The Border! Yes, I was surprised that the seats were so close to the stage, and given that, I'm not surprised they didn't sell seats in the front row. I'm pretty sure one's knees would brush against the stage if you tried to sit there.

    Thanks for your input, although like us you're influenced by a recent Eagles concert! Glad to have you on board and hope to hear from you often!

    Thanks for posting all the details in the reviews. It sure sounds like it was an incredible show & glad you all enjoyed it so much... I would have loved to hear him with that orchestra....Love all the great photos too!

    Me too!! We have to keep our eyes open for a show at either the Mountain Winery or the Montalvo where Joe is playing in September.

    How about a hat trick? Glenn in San Jose and Saratoga and then we mosey on over to Reno for Don's solo show on June 28th. It's only about a 4 1/2 hour drive.

    See you on Wednesday, Lissa. LaGuardia -- around 9:30-ish. Let the games begin -- or in my case -- continue!

    The band was tight and Glenn sounded great so I would have to give the show an A-
    Welcome and thanks for the compliment about the site as well as all the details about your experience! Glad you had a good experience overall. Regarding the above question about New Kid in Town, I'm just speculating, but perhaps it's hard for him to go that high consistently. He's often remarked on that being the highest he could sing. I can't think of any other reason he would drop one of the Eagles ' biggest hits.

    If this was during the Summer Holidays I could possibly do this. How far are these venues from San Francisco? My cousin Shane lives there. Maybe I could fit in a visit to him too if I was travelling this far!

    We don't know when they are and as Soda reminded me last night, they could be private events. I surely wish we knew!

    I'll keep my fingers crossed that it's a public concert, at a convenient time for you!

    Thank you EK! I'm kinda hoping if the dates were on the T-shift it would indeed mean public!

    But GA I hate to break it to you; when he did the PTO tour, the dates on that T shirt included a couple of private shows. I think that is what these are. If they had been public they would have gone on sale by now.

    Like most people I am disappointed that he isn't doing more shows; opportunity lost.
