Vienna, Austria 10-06-2009
Wooooohoooo I'm back home. I had the best seat I could dream of, because I had the perfect view of Don. I wasn't able to take pictures, because my mobile phone isn't that good. I recorded Desperado, Boys of summer and Waiting in the weeds with my mobile phone. If I'll ever find my data cable I'll post it here.
The concert started at 20:00, they played 50 min and took a very short break about 10-15min and then played until the end.
Here's for you what I remember; I don't remember all they said and I don't know what the rest of the Eagles did, because most of the time I was watching Don.
01. How long
Glenn: Hello Vienna, we play old songs, new songs, long songs...
02. Guilty of the crime
03. Hotel California
04. Peaceful easy feeling
05. I can't tell you why
06. Witchy woman
Glenn: Don and I once wrote this next song. We wrote it quite quickly. We did everything very fast back in 1975.
07. Lying eyes
08. Boys of summer
After that song I decided to go to the toilet. I came across the stage at the same time Don went back to his drums. He looked sidewarts and I thought "the heck with it.....", raised my hand, waved at him and said "Hi". He smiled back at me, didn't raise his hand, though waved with his left handraised his brows and grinned me a "Hi" back.
Wow. At the toilet I realized that I was completely shaking and sat a little longer than planned.
Wow. Thank you Don.Thank you sooo much.
That was more than I expected. I'm the happiest girl on earth. I will NEVER forget that moment.
09. In the city
Don: Right now we're gonna sing one more song for you, then we'll take a short break, we have a bad condition, and then we'll come back and sing for a looooooong time.
10. The long run
BREAK
11. No more walks in the woods
12. Waiting in the weeds
Glenn: Now we're playing the next song from the new album. It is called "track number eight".
13. No more cloudy days
14. Love will keep us alive
Glenn: It's great to be in Vienna. Vienna, the world capitol of waltz. Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a waltz for you:
15. Take it to the limit
BAND INTROS
Don was sooo cute, he smiled like he was embarrased by all the noise that started after Glenn introduced him. Then he looked directly into the cam, so that the whole screen was filled with his faceand I needed some fresh air after seeing his cute stubble.
16. Long road out of Eden
They shortly left the stage and came back in white shirts with their ties on and my seat neighbour said: "Oh, now it gets hotter".
The woman on my left side asked me "Are you an Eagles fan? I saw that you know all the songs before they start singing" (I wrote the titles into my mobile phone, she saw that) I looked quite puzzled, said "Aaahm, yeeeees?!" She said: "I'm not. I'm in the wrong concert because I made a mistake at the order hotline...but I'm surprised: they are good!".
17. Walk away
18. One of these nights
19. Life's been good
The only time I didn't stare at Don, because Glenn's butt was more interesting during that song(he showed us all his back a few times)
20. Dirty laundry
21. Funk 49
(nice bauble between Glenn and Joe)
22. Heartache tonight
23. Life in the fast lane
Then they left the stage and the whole hall started to scream and clap.
They came back and played
24. Take it easy
25. Rocky mountain way
Steuart had lots of fun with himself....he laughed and smiled the whole time during Joe's hose-play (you know what I mean, I don't know the right word for that).
26. Desperado
I recorded Desperado with my mobile phone. Don's voice was incredible.
After they took a bow Don took his drumsticks and gave them to 3 kids.
Glenn gave a guitar pick to someone.
But all those sticks and picks can't touch to what I got from Don that night.
*sigh* That was the best concert I've ever been to. Yes, the Beach Boys were great, I loved Kenny Rogers and Genesis were nice too. But that Eagles concert was the max. I'll never ever forget that day.
