Eagles kick off LROOE tour in London!

[Glennsallnighter]

Oh I'm delighted for you Kate. :yay: Have you managed to find someone to take the second ticket?

[Mrs Frey]

I'm relieved for your sake, GEF. I know you were concerned about receiving them, and am SO happy that you now have them. :yay: :D Eagles, here we come!!!

[Glennsallnighter]

31 days to go!!!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Dreamer! You are getting sleepy, you are seeing Glenn's :heart: eyes before you, and they're calling you home :wink:... to London... to the O2 Arena... on 20 March...

Is the hypnosis working? :wink:

Oh man! How I would love to be there. But, it's just not possible. If only I would have known the guys would be playing Europe this early, I could have planned better. Oh well, I'm still hoping they will go back one last time maybe next year before calling it quits once and for all. :pray: :pray:

[StephUK]

33 days to go for me.

I'm so excited. My first Eagles concert, and 'Will Hollis' spotting! Actually, I'm looking forward to seeing them all in the flesh. Looking forward to singing along and drooling.

LOL

Not yet. It may have to go on Ebay after all.

Aw, such a pity, dreamer, as we'd have loved to have met you, but at least you have that cruise to look forward too!

[StephUK]

Hi All,

28 DAYS TO GO!

I've decided to take my camera. I've been reading up on how to take photo's in dark places without using the flash(so hopefully I won't get spotted by security). I'm not the world best photographer, so I might not get anything very good, but it has to be worth a try.

I'm getting very excitied about seeing the band for the first time, and just the thought of being in the same room as Will Hollis makes me go weak at the knees.

LOL
Steph

Oh good luck, Steph. I hope you are able to get some good pics. I, for one, would love to see them if you do. :wink: :wink:

[DonFan]

Steph, one of my friends who is going with me to see the Eagles in Atlanta adores Scott the way you adore Will. It is interesting to read posts from all the different people on the boards and to hear which man is their favorite, from the four main Eagles to their many talented and good-looking supporting musicians.

So many gorgeous men, so little time! 8)

[EasyFeeling]

Good luck, Steph. 8) We know you give your best to get good shots. Looking forward to see them. :D

Yes, I absolutely adore Will; :smitten: both his looks & his playing. I love watching him play because he shows so many facial expressions, from concentrating to laughing, and he sometimes looks like he's gone off into a world of his own. I love it best when he plays piano(which he doesn't with the Eagles as they have talented Mike) 'cos he looks so emotional. I have stuff which he's done as a session musician for other people where he plays some beautiful piano.
I love his dark shiny hair & his eyes, and his smile, his quite solid-looking sexy body & legs(he has a bit more meat on him than the other guys I think)..........this list could be endless!!

I also like things about the 4 Eagles too,

Glenn - his cheeky personality & his smile.
Don - his lovely eyes
Joe - he looks so sexy when he has shorter hair & wears his glasses
Tim - Love the hair

I like Scott's smile too.

As you said, so many georgeous men!!

LOL

That is too awesome! Man, less than a month to go. I'm so happy for you and the others who are going to see them soon. I can't wait for the reviews!

[DonFan]

Just over three weeks until you all get to be the very first to hear the new set list! I am so excited for you!

[EasyFeeling]

Wow, time flies. :shock: I guess we get to read very, very, very loooooong reviews. :D I'm so looking forward to read about every detail. :D

[Mrs Frey]

Well, EF, I hope my brain will be able to function after the concert - I'm not sure what state my mind will be in. :wink: In all seriousness, I hope I remember enough details so that I can write a decent review for all of you to enjoy. It has actually only hit me this week that there are only three weeks to go before I fly out to London - I actually can't believe it's happening! :shock: :shock: :shock:

I'm frantically exercising, cycling and planning my outfit and look for the evening. So much to consider... :wink:

Steph, I hope you are able to take pictures, and I'm so excited for you that you'll be able to see your beloved Will in the flesh. I'm excited to see them all, but Glenn :heart: is the one I long to see most. As I said before, I actually can't believe it's happening! :nope: :wink:

[EasyFeeling]

Well, EF, I hope my brain will be able to function after the concert - I'm not sure what state my mind will be in. :wink:

Oh, I'm sure you will remember the details. Just make sure you post your review right after the concert. I want to feel the emotions, you know? :wink:

Oh me too MF! I concur with everything! I'm going to head out on my own to get my outfit next week! I don't want ANYONE to cramp my style! :D

We'll do our best but we'll have to get home first!! I'll try to post by the Saturday night after.

To know what you mean MF; I don't think my brain will be functioning too well after the concert either. It will be filled with thoughts of Will :inlove: and of my first Eagles live experience.
I'm sure you are very excited about seeing Glenn; hope they do 'All she wants to do is dance' and Glenn dances.

I'm driving to the concert, and straight home again afterwards - about journey of about 4 hours each way. Am I mad?

25 days to go!

LOL
Steph

[Brooke]

Of course not, Steph! Been there, done that! You might be a little tired the next day, but it will be worth it in the long run! :wink:

[sodascouts]

Steph, 4 hours each way is nothing when we're talking about seeing the Eagles! You're just exhibiting true-blue fanhood!

[Mrs Frey]

Well, EF, I hope my brain will be able to function after the concert - I'm not sure what state my mind will be in. :wink:

Oh, I'm sure you will remember the details. Just make sure you post your review right after the concert. I want to feel the emotions, you know? :wink:

I unfortunately won't be able to post the review directly after the concert (unless my hotel has Internet :D ), but I'll probably write something down as soon as I can afterwards. I don't see myself getting any sleep on the night! Oh, you'll get emotions alright - I'll still be feeling those emotions LOOONG after the concert, I can assure you!

Thanks, Steph - I hope to see Glenn :heart: dancing too. OOOH! He's just so sexy when he dances! :shock:

As for your 8 hour journey to and from the concert: if you are mad, then I must be heading for the nearest asylum, since I'm flying about 10 000 miles (or so GA tells me) each way to see the boys! :lol: I'm going to be so far away from home - I'm terrified! :shock:

[Glennsallnighter]

You'll be fine MF! And it will be worth every single mile!

22 days to go!

This time 3 weeks you'll be already in the UK and I'll be heading to the Airport!
:yay: :yay: :yay:

[Glennsallnighter]

Only

15

Days to go now!!!!!

[rcknalwys]

I am SO excited for all of you that are going to the London shows! I'm counting down the days with you.

[Glennsallnighter]

Thanks RKA! This time 2 weeks we'll be THERE!!

I had a very frustrating day shopping for a suitable outfit for the occasion. Right clothes, wrong sizes and all that! :roll:

[Mrs Frey]

Thanks from me too, Becky. I've had an almost unreal feeling come over me over the last week, as it dawned on me how soon the day will arrive for me to fly to London. :shock: I really can't believe it.

GA, I'm sorry you've been struggling so much to find an outfit. I know how important it is to you to look your best, but I have every confidence that you will look great no matter what you wear.:nod:

I have my outfit sorted (thank goodness I had clothes to fall back on - they're only worn to special occasions!), which is really the least of my worries, as I'm travelling to a foreign country for the first time ever! :shock: :shock:

I just hope everything "works out alright". I don't want there to be a "heartache" that night! :wink:

[Glennsallnighter]

Oh I'm sure I'll find something! And we'll have a great night! Guaranteed!

[StephUK]

I'm sure you do feel a bit anxious about coming to England; it will be worth it, everything's going to turn out fine 'cos I'm thinking about you & praying for you to have a good flight and a nice hotel and a fantastic time at the concert(and I'm sure everyone on this board is too). When do you arrive in London & how long are you staying?

Glenn will be here at the O2, waiting just for you !!!

LOL

Steph

[glenneaglesfan]

It's all very exciting and coming up so quickly. I have a bid on my spare ticket on ebay. Hope the buyer can put up with sitting next to a diehard Glenn fan!

MF, you are taking a huge step coming to England, but what better reason. I hope we can have some fun exploring London on Friday - I've already started my research! It's going to be a renaissance for me as well, as last time I really explored London it was thirty years ago!

[Glennsallnighter]

Hopefully I'll at least be able to meet up with you both at some stage on the Friday. I should've gone on my own. But it would've killed Timtot not to have come too!

Now, The big countdown begins

Awww, Steph, thank you! :hug: You are so sweet! I wish I could meet up with you too in London, but by the time you arrive in London for the show on 22 March, I'll already be on my 11-hour flight back to Cape Town! :(

GEF, I'm glad you've found a buyer for your ticket. I certainly am taking a huge step, and am apprehensive about it, but I can't imagine how I'm going to feel seeing my heroes, and doing so with my friends who feel exactly as I do! I really am very excited, although I'm going through a very challenging time at the moment personally.

[Mrs Frey]

Hopefully I'll at least be able to meet up with you both at some stage on the Friday. I should've gone on my own. But it would've killed Timtot not to have come too!

GA, I'm sure we'll make a plan. A great part of my excitement is knowing that I will meet both you and GEF. :grouphug: I can't wait to see Timtot's face when she sees Timmy in the flesh!

[EasyFeeling]

GEF, I'm glad you could sell the spare ticket. Hopefully the buyer is also a diehard fan so you can drool together. :wink:

Only 10 days :shock: wow, I'm getting excited now even if I don't go.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Oh wow! The countdown really does begin now. I can't believe all of you lucky ladies are so close to seeing the London shows. I really am getting excited for all of you (and :jealous: ).

[Glennsallnighter]

Well Dreamer now you know how we all felt when you guys got to Pebble Beach! We'll let you know how it goes asap after the gig as we come down to earth! (However that might take a while!)

[Perfect Little Sister]

Oh man GA! If we have to wait until you come back to earth, we won't get to hear about the concert for weeks!! :wink:

[Glennsallnighter]

Probably true PLS, Probably true! But I'll post the 'Mars' version as soon as I get home!

[Glennsallnighter]

[sodascouts]

I can't wait to hear what the setlist is. I'm so envious of you girls! I know you'll have a terrific time!

[glenneaglesfan]

Hopefully I'll at least be able to meet up with you both at some stage on the Friday. I should've gone on my own. But it would've killed Timtot not to have come too!

GA, I do hope we can meet up for a bit on Friday as well. I'm sure your hubby would love to take the kids to one of the museums! :wink:

I have at last mentioned my London trip to my friend I share my office with, not absolutely the full details of why I'm going, but I've mentioned I'm meeting some friends I talk to on the internet, and she thought it was really cool!

[Perfect Little Sister]

I'm so excited for everyone!! And, I must admit, :jealous: .
At least they didn't schedule these shows earlier in the month. If they'd been in concert on my birthday and I couldn't go it would have been too much for me. lol

[Glennsallnighter]

I'll do my best GEF but we'll be travelling home that day too. It depends on how my son takes to being without him mom on the Thursday night :roll: . Don't get me wrong I'd LOVE to meet up but I'll have to consider the logistics of it as well.

I'm sure your friend was quite envious!!

:D Hi just catching up on all the posts and read the concerns about camera's-well both times I've been there was NO problem!Security do check your bags and put them through a conveyer belt thing but we were able to take photos and our seats for Keane were in disabled area so we were close and we still could!Obviously if you tried to use a huge zoom lense one then you'd be stopped but it's a case of trying to be discreet!! luv FF61 PS Is there anyone else going on 26th??

[Claire]

It's been a long time since my last post!
I've been busy planning my travel to London, and now everything is organised, I'm getting REALLY nervous as many of you as far as I can see... It's kind of a big adventure for me, my first trip to England, my first Eagles concert...
10 days left for me, I'll do my best to do a review of the show, hoping I won't faint as soon as the guys will come on the stage :fainted: lol

[DonFan]

Don't faint, Claire! :shock: :wink: You have to stay alert so you can remember every detail! 8)

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Yep - the excitement level is building for all of you lucky ones! I know how you all must be feeling. Hope the next week flies by for you!

LOL, Claire! You and I are in exactly the same boat on both counts! My colleagues are teasing me about possibly fainting as well - one of them says she doesn't think my heart is going to hold out when the boys walk on stage, particularly when I see Glenn :heart:! :blush: :lol:

I'm flying at 17:00 South African time on Tuesday, 18 March! :shock:

[Mrs Frey]

Yep - the excitement level is building for all of you lucky ones! I know how you all must be feeling. Hope the next week flies by for you!

Thanks, Dreamer! However, I don't want the week to fly, as I have a lot to do before I go! Not only that, but I think the build-up is part of the fun!

[Glennsallnighter]

I'm finding the build up great fun too! I'll tell my daughter tomorrow when the schools finish up for St Patricks day and Easter. Hubby and I have our own 40th party on Saturday night as well. We've 80 guests coming!

Its gonna be a busy week!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mrs Frey]

Well, unfortunately today will be the last day that I can enjoy The Border until after I return from London, and that will only be on Tuesday, 25 March, when I'm back at work after the Easter weekend. :( At least I'll have a couple of days to collect my thoughts after what I'm sure will be the most exciting experience of my life! :D :D :D

Please take care everybody - I can't wait to share my experiences with all of you. :grouphug:

[Glennsallnighter]

Well I can't wait to meet you MF! I hope you have a safe enjoyable and trouble free journey from South Africa to the UK!

Here's to the boys.

:cheers:

And a great night.

Hopefully with at least some Glenn :heart: :love:

Take it Easy!

MF - Have a wonderful and safe trip. Make the most of it girl, and don't let anything spoil your fun. Tell the boys "Hi" for us. :wink: :wink:

[Mrs Frey]

Thanks so much, GA and Dreamer! I am really getting excited now! I have had contact with my friend who is ill, and she is very excited for me too! It makes me feel SO much better.

GA, I can't wait to meet you, either! :blueblob:

Dreamer, I'll try my best to get the boys' attention - do you think a push-up bra will help? :twisted: :wink:

[Brooke]

Mrs F, I'm wishing you safe travel and a wonderful time! I hope the concert is as wonderful as the ones I've been to and more and you get great seats up front!

We'll miss you while you are gone and hurry back and get those details in ASAP! :P

OMG - I am so excited for all of you who are going. Cannot wait for your reviews.

Now - how about some more American dates. Can we send in requests of which cities we would like them to perform in :hmm: let's see .... how about 4 shows in Kansas City. Yep, that's a good idea. We have a nice new arena. Perfect. Okay then, we'll put you down for 4 shows in July :thumbsup: see you then.

[Claire]

I'll try to catch the more details I could! I haven't got a front seat, but the one I could afford doesn't seem too bad I think :D
MF, I wish you to have a good trip and of course, a wonderful concert hoping you won't faint either, particulary if you manage to catch Glenn's attention! :mrgreen:

And how about a swing down the east coast, with emphasis on the mid-Atlantic, of course. :wink:

Now I am Officially excited! My ILAA email just arrived with the info for meeting etc for the gig! I can't wait!!!!
:blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob:

[glenneaglesfan]

That's so cool, GA! Claire, your tickets sound fine. Thanks for all your encouraging words about the possible song list. GA & MF, I can't wait!!!

[rcknalwys]

I'm so excited for all of you that are going to the London gigs.

Claire, don't worry about where your seats are located, the important thing is that you are THERE. I've never been able to afford really good seats either. When I saw them in Dallas, I was actually behind the stage....great view of a great behind(Timothy's, of course!), and they had big screens that showed all the guys that were close enough to really see them. The excitement will fill the air no matter where you are and you will be so thrilled to be there, it will take your breath away.

GA that is so cool, you must be walking on cloud 9!

While we're putting in requests, a few concerts in Nashville, please!

To all of you, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! And share details! We can't wait to hear all about every little thing....although I don't know how you'll manage to take notes while drooling!

[Claire]

GA I can imagine your excitement!

RKA, thanks for putting me at rest :wink:
I'm so thrilled to attend to this Eagles show... A few months ago, I wouldn't have dared hope to see them live! Front seats would have been great, that's sure, but I know I'm gonna have the time of my life, wherever I am! And I consider I'm lucky to have such an opportunity... :) From what I heard, an Eagles show is a unique experience!

So to all of you in the US or elsewhere, I really wish you to see them as soon as possible! As diehard fans, you deserve it!

:D Hi everyone I am now counting down the days 11 to be precise and I am so excited-still can't believe that I'm actually seeing them in the flesh! :) I know I asked before but is there anyone else from the border going on the 26th?? Luv FF61

[StephUK]

Now I am Officially excited! My ILAA email just arrived with the info for meeting etc for the gig! I can't wait!!!!
:blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob:



I haven't had my email yet. Hope it arrives soon or I will have to chase them up - wouldn't want to be overlooked!!

I can understand how excited you are feeling. I'm excited, but have reached the almost neurotic stage. It's my first Eagles concert and I'm thinking....

What if.......it's not as good as I expect it to be?
What if.......they don't do any of my favourite songs?
What if ......my darling Will Hollis is not as good looking in the flesh as he is in photo's/on DVD?

Somebody reassure me PLEASE!!!!!!

LOL

[sodascouts]

Hey, don't worry about it, Steph. Relax and have fun. The guys have a great dynamic onstage and even if they don't play your favorites, you'll enjoy yourself. If you liked Farewell 1, you'll love the Eagles live!

[Brooke]

Steph, believe me, you will not be disappointed. It will be one of the best times of your life! :nod:

Have a great time! And remember, we want details when you get back! :wink: :D

FF61, Toonlass and Witchy Mummy have got tickets for the 26th. I met up with them two years ago and we had great fun before the show. See Toon's post in the "I'm moving house" thread.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Steph and ff61 - I know you won't be disappointed at your first Eagles concert. Have the time of your life, ladies.

And Steph - let me reassure you - Will (a.k.a. Smokin' Hot A$$, Jr.) is gorgeous in person. As I've mentioned before, I've seen him a few times at Glenn's solo shows in 2006 and last year at Niagara Falls. I chatted with him for a while in Niagara Falls and he was very sweet as well as very HS&G. :nod: :nod: :nod:

I can't believe this girls! I have a sore throat, sore ears and a very bad chest :cry: My voice is going.

I NEED IT TO RETURN BY THURSDAY!!

Its a Public holiday here tomorrow so the Doctors will be closed until Tuesday! Luckily I found some antibiotics from a previous dose in the press earlier. I'm starting on them and MF texted me to get an immune booster! On the way!!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Oh no, GA - hope you recover quickly. But you are going to have to be VERY sick before you let it interfere with your plans this week. Is MF enroute to London? If so, I know she must be beside herself with excitement. :D

[katherine5832]

GA, I hope you're feeling better quickly. I'm sending good thoughts your way! :pray: To you and everyone else going to one of the concerts this week, have fun, travel safely, and be good. Okay, you can scratch that last one. :twisted: Be as bad as you want, but above all, HAVE FUN! I'm so excited for all of you!
:yay:

[sodascouts]

Well, if you can't holler GA, you can mouth the words at least!

But here's hoping you're 100% by the concert.

[StephUK]

Thanks all for the reassurances. I feel better already! I'm sure I will have a great time at the concert. :yay:
I'll be singing my heart out. :rockon:

I'm so envious of you 'Dreamer'; :jealous: I'd love to meet Will and chat to him.
When I watch him closely on the Farewell 1 DVD & Don's Live Inside Job DVD I see a myriad of expressions on his face and in his eyes - I think he's probably quite a deep person, with a lot going on inside his head, and that appeals to me. I'd love to hear him talk about his love of music.
Of course, I appreciate his Smokin' Hot A$$ Jr. attributes too! :drool:

I'll be at the concert on Sat 22 - anyone else going that night?

I hope that in addition to the tracks from the new CDs we get Lyin' Eyes, Peaceful Easy Feeling, Take it to the Limit, Sunset Grill, All she Wants to do is Dance, Heartache Tonight, Life in the Fast Lane & Take it Easy(even though it wasn't in the dress rehearsal show). On top of those I'd be happy with any of their other songs.
Sometimes I think it would be good to see them do some others like Saturday Night, After the Thrill is Gone, Sad Cafe, Good Day in Hell, On the Border.
Basically, I just want them to do every song in a mega concert - how many hours would that take? I know, I'm just being greedy!!!

LOL
Steph

[Glennsallnighter]

Well Dreamer, MF flies out on Tuesday. I fly with Timtot and the 'hangers on' (ie hubby and the 4 year old) on Wednesday. I'm going to rest my voice all I can over the next 3 days. Don't worry! It won't be too bad to interfere with my plans :wink:
Soda! I'll be hollerin!! :D

[Molly]

Feel better, GA! I'm sure though it's going to take a lot more than feeling a little under the weather to keep you from having an amazing time!

[Glennsallnighter]

[Glennsallnighter]

Well while still not perfect I'm already a lot better! Looks like the antibiotics are working!! Just have to get the packing done now!

[glenneaglesfan]

GA, I hope you are already feeling better. I can tell you, there ain't no better tonic than an Eagles concert, so I know you'll be fine! I visited my Mum and Dad yesterday, both of whom were under the weather, and I'm afraid I was selfishly thinking "Don't let me catch anything!"

Looks like it's going to be a cold Easter weekend. Temperatures down to -9 degrees C and possible snow. Added to that the Bank holiday maintenance on the rail system and it could turn out quite interesting. However I'm sure that the warm glow we'll have after the concert will keep the chill out!

[Glennsallnighter]

Well, if it doesn't hopefully MF will get her snow! She's never seen it before. So it'd be a double thrill for her!

[Glennsallnighter]

GEF You were NOT being selfish hoping not to pick up anything! None of us want to be ill for such an important occasion. I hope your parents are feeling a lot better by now.

[Brooke]

Have a wonderful time ladies!
:blueblob:
And get yourself well, GA!

[tbs fanatic]

OMG - I am so excited for all of you who are going. Cannot wait for your reviews.

Now - how about some more American dates. Can we send in requests of which cities we would like them to perform in :hmm: let's see .... how about 4 shows in Kansas City. Yep, that's a good idea. We have a nice new arena. Perfect. Okay then, we'll put you down for 4 shows in July :thumbsup: see you then.

Just let me add a couple in St. Louis please! :wink:

Hey, I could handle a trip to St. Louis. OMG - if they go to St. Louis we are so going to the show together Brooke :D

[freyfantastic61]

:D Hi everyone-the days seem to be dragging but it's only 8 to go.I am leaving home early to catch the train to London where I'll meet with my friend so we have rest of the day to catch up,lunch and get ready.i will find it SO hard not to peep at all your concert reports but on the other hand I don't want to know exactly what songs etc they do! :wink: Maybe I will get my daughter to have a look first! Anyway just have a fantastic time on the 20th! :D luv FF61

[Glennsallnighter]

:blueblob:

I'm fine now Brooke thanks! Those old antibiotics were a Godsend. I'm in the middle of organising now and I'm just SO EXCITED! :blueblob: :blueblob: :blueblob:

MF just texted me from Johannesburg Airport. She's just boarding her flight to London and she'll get there tomorrow morning! I'm sure we all wish her a safe flight!

WOW!

Thanks for your good wishes FF61! Its true, the thing about going to the first show is that we don't really know what to expect at all in terms of 'Oldies' 'Newbies' and outfits, although we've had a few hints!

I'm so looking forward to it!

[Glennsallnighter]

And as its past midnight here..........

1!!!!!

[timfan]

woo hooo!!!!

Have a great time ladies! (as I know you will :wink: ) and make sure the guys know how much we all love 'em :inlove:

[Glennsallnighter]

We will TF! We will :D

[Glennsallnighter]

And now I'm logging out for the last time before I go. MF is already high in the skies travelling North.

Lotsa Eagle-Love Peace and laughter to you all and hopefully I'll have loadsa news when I login again!

Keep Safe... :bye: :bye: :bye:

[katherine5832]

Is anyone else feeling a little wistful that we're not going to be at those concerts this week? :cry: I'm so happy for those who are going to be there though. I can't wait to hear all about it. But I'm anxiously awaiting my turn....

[Ive always been a dreamer]

No Katherine - I absolutely have no idea what you're talking about!!! :D :D :D

[Brooke]

I am. Wistful is a good word to describe it. It's going to be very quiet around here until we hear from all those lucky gals. :(

I can't wait till they get back! :headshake:

[sodascouts]

Me neither - I can't wait to hear the setlist and all the details!

[tbs fanatic]

Yep, every little detail :D Especially regarding how HOT they all look :D

[Claire]

Just a question: as a newbie in Eagles concert, I wonder if the guys are generally prompt or if as with many other bands, the show begins later than the hour indicated...
I ask that because the friends with whom I go to the show keep telling me it doesn't matter if we don't arrive exactly at time but it makes me really anxious... :roll: Personally, I think we should be at the arena as soon as the doors open but they don't really agree with me...
So, I thought I should ask you what you think about that :D

I can't remember if they were on time back in '94 and '95 for HFO, but I, personally, would get there when the doors open even if they had an opening act (which I'm thinking they don't have for LROOE). I would never take the chance of not being there to see them take the stage. Try to convince your friends to be there on time. And whatever you do, don't let them talk you into leaving before the encores "to beat the crowds!" I never understand how people can buy tickets for a show and then arrive late and leave early! Don't leave your seats until the house lights come on! I hope you have a great time, Claire!

[sodascouts]

Claire, it's usual for them to come out a bit late, but you can never tell whether it will be 10 minutes or 30. I agree with katherine - better safe than sorry. Be there when the doors open. It could be the exception - one of the rare concerts where they start exactly on time!

[glenneaglesfan]

Well, I'm just biting my nails waiting for time to leave for the station. I've insured Phil on my car so that he can give me a lift. I should get to London in time to meet with MF & GA before they have to get to the ILAA reception. I'M SO EXCITED!!!

I'll do my best to post a review on Saturday when I get home!

[Brooke]

:bye: Have fun!

We'll be waiting! :yay: :yay:

[sodascouts]

I know you'll have a blast! Looking forward to hearing all about it!

:D Hi!Just like to add my thoughts on this.I do take my daughters to a lot of concerts in the UK and we always arrive early & soak up the atmosphere,have plenty of time to buy merchandise etc then find our seats and people watch-it's all part of the experience! We always say hello to whoever's next to us usually they are friendly!And I totally agree with Katherine NEVER leave until the house lights are on!!
and enjoy every moment!! luv FF61
PS- ONLY 6DAYS TO GO! :D :D

[Claire]

Thanks everyone for your advices!
Katherine, don't worry, I won't leave my seats before I'm really sure the show is ended and I think neither my friends will! Once the show will start, I'm pretty sure they'll be bewitched as I will :wink: ... It's strange that you tell me about that because last night I dreamed I left too soon so that I missed the encores... What a nightmare! :worried:
FF61, I understand what you mean, talking about the atmosphere! You seem to appreciate every little moment of the shows you go to, that's great! Two days to go for me! I presume the excitation grows and grows for you too!
Soda, I will use your precisions to convince my friends :D. I hope it won't be too hard, as they are not as crazy about the Eagles as I am, but I'll do my best! :wink:
Thanks again!

[sodascouts]

They're at the show RIGHT NOW!

:band:

Edited to add: Just heard from GA - she and MF have second row!

[Claire]

So, Long Road Out Of Eden tour is going to start... :D That's so cool!!

[rcknalwys]

OH MY GOSH! I am so excited for GA & MF! Wish we could all be there with them sharing in their excitement. Congratulations ladies on scoring such outstanding seats! Can't wait to read all about it.
