Just getting ready to get off the computer for the night and hit refresh on the VIP Nation screen. They've added a show in Atlanta for 5/02! It just says 'coming soon', doesn't say when tix will go on sale. I don't see it on Ticketmaster yet.

Thanks for the heads-up, VA!

Hmm, maybe I can make this one! I know, I'm going to Jazz Fest a few days later, but if I can get a good seat...

ETA: Shoot, it's a Wednesday. Doesn't look good for me.

Hmmmm . Flight change in my future? Was gonna fly in on the 3rd anyway, so . . . . . . :???: I could change it to the 2nd. . . . .

eaglesband.com is showing Amex presale 3/12 - 3/16 and to general public 3/17/12.

I don't think it's a good idea to make such decisions while running a fever and battling the flu. I'll think about it over the weekend, hopefully I'll be feeling better by then.

It's on TM now, but only a link for the VIP tickets. VIP Online has changed from 'coming soon' to the presale being 3/12 and the public sale being on 3/14 (not 3/16 like it shows on the band's website).

Turns out that because this show falls on finals week, I don't have class after all. That means I can go!

It will be rather grueling to drive 6 hours to Atlanta on May 2 and then drive 6 hours to Mississippi and and 3 more hours to New Orleans on May 3, but I'll manage it. I've driven longer shifts before to see my faves!

Henley Honey

Dang, I wish I could make the May 2 show as well, but I'm excited to be going to my first ever Eagles concert on the 4th!! I can't wait to meet up with you guys, before/after the last concert. I wouldn't mind trying to swing one of the solo Glenn shows as well, but was waiting to see if he came closer to NC. I suppose the DC show is the closest to me. Anyways... back to Atlanta... this is going to be the longest 50 days ever!!! :nod:

Henley Honey

Maybe Stevie will make it a "two-off" and open for them in Atlanta too!!
There's nothing on her schedule that would cause a conflict.

Please, Please, Please, powers that be. Make it happen!!!

Soda, I think I'd have to bring oxygen and smelling salts for you and VA if she were to open for them in Atlanta. Front row for Stevie AND the Eagles? Unbelievable. :pray:

Zelda, will you be staying over night after the May 2nd concert? I am driving down on the 3rd and am hoping to meet any Borderers in town that day. I know a couple will be at the May 4th show too.

I'm can't even contain my excitement and it's still a month to go!! I'm still hoping that my friend will go with me to New Orleans to the Jazz Fest and catch the Eagles on the 5th, there. Or at the least, let me go alone, free of guilt from ditching our plans. :-/

Hi VK I am going crazy. The friends I am going with are supposed to be getting the tickets today from Ticketmaster. I went on the site and there are still tickets available. I even told them where I'd like to sit if possible. They like the Eagles but don't LOVE them. They would never understand this board. My friend said she will call me as soon as they have them. How long does it take.. a few min right? Then we have to decide where to stay and get a flight for me.. these should be no problem. I just get nervous when other people are responsible for the tickets. Also nervous about Sabres game tonight... a must win for us I think. I just made a pot of coffee...should have made decaf. I tried to listen to boys this afternoon... had to turn it off... too nervous. Will update as soon as I hear. thanks for listening. Brenda J

Yes, it takes maybe five minutes if you make a lot of mistakes typing in your credit card info. Less if you don't. I can see why it's driving you crazy! We're playing Boston tonight, I'm downing a lot of wine in preparation!

Hi Lizzy, Yeah we are planning to stay over...don't know where yet. I don't know if you saw my previous post... am very nervous about other people getting the tickerts... they just don't get it. How did you get your ticket? Does Ticketmaster send it via mail or what? Did you look at the venue online? looks beautiful. will talk later or please feel free to call me. Maybe we can keep each other calm!

Let us know how you made out with tickets, Zelda. I checked the venue's online site and it looks great. If you have a Verizon cellphone you can enter an hour earlier than the general public thru a designated gate without the long-line aggravation of the main gates. As I told LP, when it gets closer I'll pm you with my contact info so we can meet up before the show! 4 weeks from today :partytime:

Hey Brenda,

I bought my ticket through ticketmaster. I wasn't given a chance to choose a seat, and since I had never seen them before, I took no chances and accepted the first seat thrown out to me. I then did the E-TICKET option, which means I printed out my own ticket, here at home rather than have it mailed to me or picking up at the venue. As HH said, it only takes 5 minutes to order the tickets, so your friend should at the last have confirmation, if she didn't choose the e-ticket option.

That is an absolute bummer. Not sure where you all would be coming from, but the venue is in Alpharetta, about 30 miles north of Atlanta. So if you're coming from the north, you're not going into Atlanta at all. Jeez, I had a Pens shirt all picked out to wear for you...

Oh no, that does suck. I'm with soda, what's the big deal about traffic and as she said, it's not even IN Atlanta, so that's avoided anyway. I'm sorry that I can't be of more help (since I am in Raleigh) but I won't be going down to ATL in time for the May 2nd show. :-(

So, things have a funny way of working out. I had vowed to catch the Eagles sometime soon....however the fact that the friday show was sold out and I am working 600 miles away from home every week didn't make it look like it was going to happen. Fast forward to tuesday I jumped on the Eagles site and saw that there was a date added for May 2. So I was looking for tickets and got timed out of the site due to being sidetracked. So I jumped back in and started over and noticed that the seats were WAY differrent as to location....as in wayyyyyyyyyyy better. I proceeded to complete the purchase and at the end noticed that they were for friday night May 4, and they are in Orch 2 not too far back.....so my wish to catch the Eagles band will finally come true for my wife, my son, and myself. I am praying for great weather in Atlanta on the 4th.

BTW it's very exciting that the concert is close enough to be included in the 10-day forecast!!!

Good grief. At this point, I just want to get there. What a day today was. Found out that the boss is coming to town the day I'm traveling and doing a very important demo with some bigwigs in DC. Following that, he wants us all in the office for a meeting. Fortunately, the office is very near the airport. It just means I'll have to fly in dress clothes. Ick. Maybe it's just as well, last time I flew to see them in concert, I dressed like a slug for the flight and then my clothes ended up in San Antonio. I was in Vegas. But it pretty much guarantees I'll be wearing comfy clothes for the concerts!

I teach an evening class tonight, but as soon as the students are finished taking their finals, I'm off to Atlanta! I'm going to drive through the night - it's 7 hours so I imagine I'll get there about 3:00 am.

I'm so proud of myself in that I've gotten everything graded (except of course the upcoming finals) so I'll have no worries once I get to Atlanta! I'm so lucky this is finals week, and all the finals I'm proctoring were scheduled for Monday and Tuesday. My classes are done, I've gotten all my grading out of the way, and I'm ready to roll.

Additionally, I'll be back in time for graduation on Friday... I'm set!

I was at the Belfast show in 2009 and when HC came on I thought 'If only Lou (Troub) could hear this' Then 'Hey.... wait.... she can!' I called her and kept the line open for HC, and PEF at least! Lou put her phone on speaker and heard it all!

Drove through the night and got here at 3 am. I'm very glad I did - the earlier I get here, the earlier I can enjoy hanging with my fellow fans! Plus, I don't have to worry about something happening the day of.

Something almost happened last night though.... A car went flying across the highway and slammed into the median head-first about five yards ahead of me - it split into two pieces and only by the grace of God was I able to get over fast enough so that neither piece nor the flying debris hit me. I pulled over to the shoulder of the highway and called 911, hoping since there didn't appear to be any flames that anyone who was inside would be ok. Thank goodness I was only about ten miles away from the hotel because I was very shaken up!

However, all is forgotten now as we prep for the big night!!!!!!!

Wow Soda, what a close call. Thank goodness you were there tho to call 911. Hope everyone was ok.

GA--- As many here might remember, Lou and Jess both did the same thing for me one night but I wasn't able to pick up but it was a good thing actually because for 3 years now, I've had it saved in my voicemails and can listen to Timothy singing ICTYW anytime I want to. Nancy also did it for me a couple years ago at the Chicago show at Soldier Field that I was going to attend with her but we had a mix up on the tickets. Got to hear a few of the songs while I was sitting on my patio that night. Love it!!!!

Wow, glad you made it safely to Atlanta. That accident sounds horrible. It can really shake you up when you are driving right there.. Be careful on the road.

The Cell Cert is a free conference call that someone who is at the show makes and others can all call in & hear the concert live on the phone. It is free to set up. I was wondering if anyone going to the show was doing this, so us poor souls can hear the show....I have called in to them for other artists, so I was wondering if anyone at the show tonight could possibly do it??? so we can :drool: on the phone. lol

It's not illegal as far as I know. It is just a conference call. Others do it, so I doubt it is illegal. It's not making a great recording, it's on the phone, so the sound is not that great, but you can still hear it.
