Underwhelmed. Except for Bob Seger's performance.
Granted, I've never watched this show from beginning to end; I've only seen bits and parts. There was a muted quality about the whole thing that's hard to put into words. Sheryl Crow sounded shrill singing "Fire and Rain". The tribute to Al Pacino was kinda nice; I liked the references to his famous movie lines.
The Kings of Leon and Juanes(?) looked nervous and their performances were a little subdued. Still, it was great to see young people performing Eagles songs. However, it made the house band (or what I'm assuming is the house band) seem out of place. I like Vince Gill, but I've seen and heard better performances from him. Maybe I need to watch again but it felt like he was going through the motions, kind of. It could have been that "rushed" quality someone else referred to earlier in the thread.
Bob was awesome. He put a lot of heart and soul into his performance. It was nice to see Mrs. Frey and her daughter enjoying themselves and dancing. Don didn't look happy at times. Joe and Timothy smiled quite a bit.
By the end the Obamas looked bored. But another poster pointed out how Gayle King was singing along so maybe they were annoyed with that instead. The narration about the band's history was all about Glenn and Don, of course. There was a line or two about Joe and Timothy, which focused on Joe's class clown persona and Timothy's high vocals, because apparently that's all they offer musically
Unfortunately, I missed the last performance. I believe I'll reserve my thoughts on the Three Who Shall Not Be Named, and apparently, Whose Images Shall Not Be Shown If It Can Possibly Be Avoided, and post them on the other thread.
Telling that 4/5 of the songs performed came from the debut album and Hotel California.
