    Got my tickets this morning in the Live Nation pre sale.
    Went for the Platinum tix.
    We saw Don last year in Los Angeles for the Cass County tour
    So really looking forward to this.
    Also have tickets for Hyde Park but may not be able to
    get near the stage.

    Why are these available in the UK but not in Ireland?

    Just wanted to thank everyone for the advice you've given me elsewhere on this board. I've decided to go for it and I've got two platinum tickets for this show! I'm really looking forward to it, I'm sure it will be great. I'm very excited to see what the setlist will bring, I'm hoping for a couple of rare gems but I'd still be very pleased just to hear the big hits.

    As a first timer to any Eagles-related show, does anyone have any specific advice about going to the concert? I've not been to many shows before so I'm bit of a rookie compared to some of you and don't want to miss any good tricks. Thanks!

    What are you worried about, JCL? I'm so glad you're going - I know all of you guys are going to have a great time.

    Ah, I wasn't worried as such, just thinking about things like the camera policy and wanted to know if there was anything else I like that I should know of before going. Really it's more about my parents (whichever one of them goes with me, I think both would be happy to go) - I know about what Don does and doesn't like at his shows but they might not be so aware. My sister has been to four Taylor Swift shows and whichever parent has gone has sometimes filmed certain performances. I respect Don's wishes and have no desire to annoy him!

    Thank you, I'm sure we will enjoy it. Can't wait!

    Jonny, my advice is to try to soak in as much as you can, and afterward, when you get a chance, come here and post as thorough a review of your show as you can. Not only will you be benefiting other Borderers who want to read about your show, but you'll always have a record of your experience. Memories fade over time, and I can't tell you how many times I've gone back and read my reviews here for the Eagles shows I went to. I wrote such specifics that looking back at them always puts a smile on my face!

    JCL, just go and plan on having a wonderful experience!

    I would take my camera, but don't try to take any pics till maybe towards the end and don't even try to film anything! I wonder if Don will have the 'sitting' policy? Probably! Just watch, listen, and enjoy as much as possible! I would also try to get there a little early and check out the souvenir area.

    Congrats, JCL & PhilH! JCL - I'm glad you decided to go to a show. I don't think Don will disappoint either of you. Can't wait to hear all about it.
