    I watched it last night and thought he did a great job! I've not been able to see him live and was pleasantly surprised. He has a good voice, but not a real strong voice. I guess he doesn't have the range that Don and Glenn have? I don't know the proper term. He had great back up though!

    It did kind of bother me that he sings all those Eagles songs. He hardly sang any when he was with them. I thought he did a fine job, but I would think he would do more of his own work. But, if he didn't claim Eagles songs, people probably wouldn't know who he was.

    ETA: Did anyone else think his drummer resembled HFO Don Henley? I sure did! Not as good looking, but very similar!

    I recorded it to DVR, but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet. I'll have to check out that drummer!

    Glad you enjoyed it.

    Definitely the same hair-do. Look-a-likes could be the future of tribute bands. Actors instead of musicians.

    There's several pages of discussion about Felder's show here;

    Thanks for the link. It's interesting to read the different theories of why the vocals sound a bit odd.

    After watching that version of Already Gone, I had to go back to the California Jam version to understand what was lacking. (Young men in tight jeans, playing with energy). If I can't have that, I'll take old men in baggy jeans
