Austin, not sure how you're gonna save Hotel California this time. I won't vote for Take It To The Limit... yet. But I will vote for Wasted Time.

Well I will say I'm glad it's lasted two rounds since Soda's initial vote for it.
For me the choice is easy. Classic rock megahit vs soft country rock singalong. I'm just not into the latter kind of Eagles.
There is a definite difference of the pre-Hotel California Eagles and the post-Hotel California Eagles. It's my opinion they wouldn't have been as big of a band and still widely recognized without Hotel California. They'd be successful sure, but not near as much as they did with the masterpiece song and album. They really did the right thing by going for a mainstream classic rock AOR sound and getting Joe in place of Bernie. To me that's a big reason for their continued success. I just think it made them into a supergroup along the likes of the Beatles or Stones. Because of Hotel California. I just can't vote for it. I just can't.

I would have voted for Wasted Time if I didn’t have to save TITTL. But since it is under attack so early, my vote goes to Hotel California.

Well - it looks like Hotel California is going down without my vote, so I will vote strategically again ...
I cast my vote for Take It to the Limit.

The next performance to be eliminated in Eagles Live Album Survivor is Hotel California. “Hotel California, the tribe has spoken and it looks like we just killed the beast. As it turns out, you can always leave. So, it’s time to check out, get on that dark desert highway, and leave the island immediately.

I agree. This album is similar to a Greatest Hits compilation in that every song has merit and there are no real clunkers (IMO). So some of these details and nuances can be helpful in determining which songs to vote off. For a live album, a song where a large amount was overdubbed in the studio isn’t going to rank high with me.
