    I like that Bernie was wearing a "McCabes" t-shirt (that being the music store where he heard Glenn Frey and Don Henley were putting together a band...)

    What a fantastic concert! Their voices were amazing (even better than last time).

    We were seated on Joe's side, and when I bought tickets I got a message that views could be limited - but we were thrilled with the seats. Front row on that side, and directly in line with them when they were on stage.

    Highlights - well there were so many, starting with Bernie's presence. Rob & I both loved the new arrangement of Witchy Woman, and Freypower - I am sure you are going to LOVE this version of Heartache Tonight.

    It was great to see them laughing at themselves (Glenn's road trip!!).

    Those Shoes was fantastic, and Joe was on amazing form all night.

    I thought this show really plays to their strengths, and gives everyone a chance to really shine.

    Love Will Keep Us Alive was beautiful (as was ICTYW) and it was great to hear Timothy getting some love. (& by the way he looked amazing in slim fitting dark jeans!).

    Oh & while I'm doing shallow observations... Glenn & Joe's play off sparked some inappropriate-but-pleasant thoughts too!!

    Can't wait for tomorrow's concert. We're in a different location so will be able to see the screens too.

    More reviews. It's hard to believe that these reviewers attended the same concert!

    Question - Joe didn't play Funk 49 & LBG last time they were in Australia?

    Two constrasting reviews.

    Starting with the bad one. The reviewer is clearly indifferent to the music so chooses to critique the "history" part of the show based on a superficial knowledge of the band's history.

    The second is part review and part (appreciative) essay on the banning of phones:

    ETA: Looks like I was beaten to it, but I'll leave my links as they are direct rather than through google.
