Citizens Business Bank Arena, Ontario,CA May 22nd.

It's obvious to anyone who looks that the exterior shot on the cover is of the Beverly Hills Hotel.

However, the interior is another matter. I can see how some might believe there is a resemblance regarding the interior shot, if this photo of the dining area is any indication of the hospital's decor; it's obviously in the same style.



Still, I can't imagine them allowing these guys to shoot in there.

This is probably inappropriate but if indeed it was shot at the Mental Hospital, it gives a whole new meaning to "you can check out but you can never leave". Sorry! Had to go there! (and yes, I'm aware that mental health is not a joke!)

Yeah, I think that line is probably where the urban legend came from.

Again, from Wiki:



Perhaps the most famous song associated with the facility was "Hotel California" by The Eagles, which was rumored to be about a stay in a mental hospital among residents of Ventura County[citation needed]; These claims have been consistently refuted by the band. Songwriter Don Henley said in a 1995 interview that it was written about "the zeitgeist of the time", meaning about their lifestyle as celebrity musicians in L.A. in the 70s.

Presale never materialized. The venue knows nothing, LiveNation knows nothing and TM doesn't even have the show listed. What a nighmare.

The local papers (The Daily Bulletin/Press Enterprise) have the event listed on their websites and a few other news outlets have posted the event on-line but so far no tickets are being sold. Aweeck!

The Eagles have re-listed the Ontario,CA show with a new on sale date on Monday, March 15th.

The Eagles made the front page of our local daily today. It's now official.

Here is a link to the paper's front page: (hard copy had a pix of Glenn, Scott and Don)

And, one of their staff writer's also mentioned them in his column. Here is that link.

I still can't believe it. I remember thinking, when they opened the place last year, how nice it would be if the Eagles would play there but never in my wildest dreams did I think it would happen.

I guess I can relax now-finally.

Good news!

Had to work today so I didn't get in the presale until 2:45 p.m. Still fairly decent seats left-9th row in all three front orchestra sections but I passed. I figure if they're that good this late into the presale then the general sale should be awesome. I'm taking the say off for that as I can go to the arena if necessary.

Good thing I passed on both the AMEX and general on-sale tix as they just dropped 107 seats in the center floor section. I got 5th row-dead center for $199-inclusive.

What luck.

FYI: The interactive map won't let you select just one seat unless there are an odd number of seats available in that row. Sure I would have liked to have front row but 5th row is fine for face for this venue it's so small and parking is free. Lot cheaper than the Bowl which I hate anyway.

So anyway, now that I'm done crowing like an idiot, if anyone lives in SoCal and like me didn't want to cough up $300 to sit in a box at the Bowl or wait for tickets to drop at the Honda Center here's your chance. Still 106 primo seats, F2 rows 5-13. Use the interactive map or chose Floor if you use the normal box office web page.

Thanks for the heads-up, CL! You are the ticket mistress!
