    I liked this review.

    "Joe Walsh wandered out onto the stage without much introduction"

    Does Joe need an introduction?

    Yes, he's another one that doesn't get the humor of it!

    I love the description "wandered," it's so true! I'm not trying to be pedantic, I promise, but if I recall correctly, Joe walks on stage while the guys are already playing, while Bernie and Tim walk on in between songs, so I think that's the main difference? I'm not sure that Glenn saying, "the song reminded me of my favorite band, Poco" is actually an introduction, or counts as a story of how the guy joined the group. I might be forgetting something, though. I guess what I'm trying to say is that none of the 3 were introduced and there was no story about how they joined the band, it was more the timing of their entrance on stage.

    9.5 out of 10 stars, that's awesome!! What a lovely review.

    I agree, MC, I'm thinking they mean more along the lines of dialogue that precedes them coming on stage, and then with Joe, he does walk out while they are playing and just sits down and gets into a riff.

    I can't remember which concert it was, maybe a year ago at Cincinnati, someone near me is the one who made the comment "The man who needs no introduction" right after Joe sat down to play.

    I never really thought about it, but I would think they would do an actual introduction for each of them when they come out.

    Wandering Joe! Too funny!

    Bernie's name gets mentioned as he comes out. Don talks about how Linda recommended him when they were first getting started. Timothy does not get his name mentioned, all Glenn says is that PEF reminded him of his favorite band at the time, Poco, and out comes Timothy. Joe doesn't get that much (just a lot of applause).

    Tim's name was given at both shows I have seen so far. Glenn announced him as the bass player from Poco & then he came on stage. But no, it wasn't about how he joined the Eagles, although he alluded to it when he introduced LWKUA.

    Another observations; I thought during Funk #49 with the pinball backdrop it sounded as if they had incorporated the melody of Space Age Whiz Kids into the song.

    That review is OK but BOS wasn't 'shelved' for Joe's songs which have always been there. I didn't miss BOS. I was glad the show was about the Eagles' music primarily.

    Yeah, that is different from previous shows then. So Glenn introduces Timothy (and I guess Bernie too) by name twice during the show. Fine by me! I just think its cool when Tim and Joe walk out without their name being announced, and the crowd still goes nuts when they see them. Like Don and Glenn!
