    Ouch. Scathing review. I can understand their being pissed if in fact they were booked there in error, but my heart hurts for the fans who probably looked so forward to meeting them and were blown off. I'd have been crushed.

    That was a really depressing read. Sadly, as much as I love the guys, I can see much of it being true. I would have been gutted if I was there for a M&G and they seemed cold and totally disinterested. Also, Don threatening to end the show if people didn't stop using smartphones and cameras... really? I don't want to overreact because I have had some incredible Eagles experiences, so I know that they are more than capable of being warm and sincere and generous, but I do get a bit disenchanted when I read things like this more than a few times.


    you better put it all behind you, baby, 'cause life goes on
    you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--

    Me too. But then I think about my recent concert experience where they were performing these songs in a perfectly heartfelt manner and a majority of the audience talked through it and yelled inappropriately. Having to deal with inattentive morons getting up for drinks every 10 minutes and drunken fan girls screaming for attention must wear you down. I know I'd quickly lose my patience with that behavior in my face on a nightly basis.

    A very disappointing read, in both the negative feelings from the writer and the apparent actions of the band. Unfortunately, as much as I love the Eagles I am inclined to believe much of this is true as we have seen similar behaviours in the past.

    In terms of the Windsor Ontario and Grand Falls Windsor Newfoundland confusion while I can understand how it might happen (as I in Ontario did not know there was a Windsor in NL) it is the mistake of Eagles management not the fans who expected a pleasant and proper meet and greet. Those fans should not be punished for management's error.
