Private Eagles gig in ny area tonight

[Troubadour]

I suggest we go back to basics, à la The History of the Eagles Tour. Someone's living room (preferably mine), a few ropey guitars, storage boxes for them to sit on and an ice bucket full of bottles of cheap beer. I can even bring my digital photo frame so that we can run a slideshow of pictures of Glenn driving in the background. Genius.

Someone make a few of those 3E buttons too, will you? We want it to be authentic, after all...

And GEF and GA could bring their guitars for the guys to play. Can you imagine Glenn playing Kate's guitar?

[Troubadour]

I've got a harmonica that Tim can play. Oh, we are on this!

Anyone who would play them 6 million dollars for one song has rocks in their head. For that kind of money they better give me one helluva concert !!

For $6 million, I'd be wanting more than just a song... LOL!

We have a great party room on our roof with an amazing view. We can rent it for I think $150... It can hold a party of about 120 people, with an outside area if weather permits. If it's summertime, we can have it at the pool....complete with cutie lifeguard!!!
Only 15 minutes from the airport in NY.
OK, now all we need is to get the money to pay the guys!

That sounds like a great venue & about 120 people would be about right. We don't want to share them with too many people.

Sadly, I'm guessing it takes more than $$ to get the Eagles to play a private show. That said, when taking into consideration the factors that do contribute to a "yes" for a private event, I don't know how they could, in good conscience, reject a concert for the Citizens of the Border!!!

Just say "part of the proceeds go to Walden Woods" and Don's on board, lol.

Seriously, I remember when some Stevie Nicks fans passed the hat around to try to raise money to have her play a "private party" for them a few years ago. Their method was to ask fans to contribute $100 in exchange for admittance to the "party." The only problem is that a real private party doesn't charge admission! Once her management found out about how the money was being raised, they nipped it in the bud because that made it a "ticketed event" which was not the same as a "private party" and therefore the rules were different. It actually turned into a big fiasco as the guy had already taken money from some fans since you have to make a downpayment just to show you're serious, and he was slow in returning it! (Eventually he did return it all.)

In other words, you have to be an individual who's rich enough to pay for it without soliciting "contributions," a corporation, or a charity in order to get the guys. I think I heard some corporation paid them $1 million a few years ago. They might be more expensive now.
