And it's a Friday!!!

BTW, 18 is MY number. It has followed me all my life. It's my birthdate, my wedding anniversary, my employee number at the first job I ever had...you get the picture!

Oh! And I'm a banker! :headbang:

11/18 is my birthday.

Our concert will be 10/7

I told Hubby it could be my Birthday present/Christmas gift all in one. He said do not worry he will make it good

that is so cool~

Our Anniversary is 11/11. On 11/11/11 we were married 22 years . Thought that was a pretty cool stat.

Our Anniversary is 11/11. On 11/11/11 we were married 22 years . Thought that was a pretty cool stat.

We got married in 2000. That way, it's easy to remember how many years we've been married. :thumbsup: :lol: But I digress...

This venue is Conseco Fieldhouse. (What do these places do, sell the name of the place to the highest bidder?) We've seen the Eagles here twice, in 2009 with Soda, and in 2010 where I met Cheryl. The 2009 show was the best seats I've ever had for an Eagles show, second row center. In 2010 we were row 5, Joe's side. We can't (won't) do VIP, and June 8, when tickets go on sale, I'll be at work. So it will be up to Hubby to try that morning. Who knows, but I predict it will be a frustrating experience for him. We'll just have to wait and see.

PM-I had not heard about this show. I will be there even tho I have my ticket for Louisville. I might bring my neighbor this time. They have a new giant scoreboard that is almost the length of a basketball floor. Should be great for people sitting up high. If it works out I will see you there.

my thinking is this...the guys are not going to be touring much longer...must take advantage of them while they're here...but then again...I'm probably a bad influence...lol

I don't want to look back in ten years and say...darn...I wish I'd gone to see the Eagles more...now they're not touring anymore...

Hi SL! I knew you'd find your way here eventually! Hard choice...college books or Eagles tickets...hmmm...

Just talked to my dad, I'm buying my ticket and he's buying his. He'll be downtown this Saturday at 10 at Bankers to buy our tickets. Section 17 $199. If I do return to school, I'll be downtown enjoying the Eagles in October instead of studying at Ball State.

Well, we got our tickets! Row 8, dead center. Not the best seats we've ever had, but great for the price, comparatively. Got them through StubHub.

Troubadour
06-08-2013, 07:53 AM
Congrats, Cathy! Row 8 is still pretty darn close, and it's great to know that you will be dead center. You will be able to divide your attention equally and indiscriminately amongst the guys... :lie:;)

Thanks Troub. Actually, you're not too far off. My eyes are always drawn to whomever is catching my attention at the time. The last show I went to in 2010, it was Don most of the evening. ;-)

Yes, it was after an ailment we had heard about, and he was being so silly I speculated that he was on pain meds! :hilarious:

PM - Great! I thought we were going to be close together. Hopefully, we can meet somewhere before the show. Right now I think my neighbor has decided to come with me. When I told her how much the ticket cost I thought she might change her mind. I told her if she decides she can't I know some one who would.

There are still VIP tix available for this show and I'm thinking about getting one. Rows 2-10. Trying to determine at this late stage how far back I'll have to sit... I was thinking I'd do Nashville, since it's closer, but there are no good tickets for that show, not even super expensive seats on StubHub. Also, this show is on a Friday night, easy to stay over and not worry about needing to get to work the next day.

Prettymaid
08-13-2013, 10:31 PM
That'd be great, VA. We could finally meet!

Ive always been a dreamer
08-14-2013, 06:53 PM
Well, selfishly, I'd rather have VA come to the Nashville show even though I admit it would be awesome if she could meet PM and Cheryl. Am I leaving anybody else out? If so, I apologize cause it's always awesome to meet up with other Borderers, old and new! :thumbsup:

I am ready for Indy! I have checked on a few places to meet and eat before the show. Most are within 2 or 3 blocks. There is a "Hard Rock Cafe", and a place called "The Slippery Noodle" ( with a blues band ). I will touch base with Cathy in a day or so. I keep telling my neighbor, Eva, that this will be the best show she has ever seen. She mostly goes to see and dance to local bands. Can't wait to see everyone!

Prettymaid
09-19-2013, 12:21 PM
Unfortunately for the rest of us, VA will once again be doing the VIP dinner and won't be dining with us, so we will hopefully meet her at the venue before the show.

Though I'm not sure what time to head over to Bankers, I just don't want to wait in a long line for merch. 2 papers, 1 exam and a mid-term stand between me and Friday night.

Until a few years ago I had a problem with that. My sister lives in Ohio and they were always 1 hour ahead of me. I assume Jim Dolan will be on at 7:00. You can usually get inside to the lobby and go ahead and get in the lines even before 6:30 or you can wait outside the building.

PM - I hope we get the fun loving Don that we saw in Indy the last time they played there.

Me too, Cheryl! That absolutely made the show for me!

Just before the Eagles played Indy in 2010, it had been rumored that Don had suffered some kind of injury or ailment. I don't think it was ever confirmed, but Cheryl and I got to see a very playful Mr. Henley that night, and I jokingly speculated that he was on drugs (pain meds), because what we saw was so out of character for Don. You can read my review of that show here.

Shadowland, let us know if you want to meet up, maybe by the merch booth. It'd be nice to finally meet you!

Absolutely Dreamer! I'm sure there will be plenty more shows in the US!

BUT......

I must say, we across the pond have lived vicariously through all of you and I know many people are not as lucky as Desperada and I in having the means and the cooperation from those dear to us to be able to travel to the USA to see them.

So we ARE hoping to get a few crumbs from the American table next year, and a few dates to call our own too!
