I Heart The Eagles

I went to the Eagles Concert Tuesday night.  The epitome of musical-ecstasy, to say the least.  My brother has long since known what I didn't always appreciate until more recently: these guys are absolutely incredible, from their better-than-ever vocals to their silly on-stage antics – they are absolute Legends (that word is for you, Simbo). 

Favourite Moments:

 -Joe Walsh singing Life’s Been Good (while literally jumping on one foot and soloing on the electric guitar)
-Glenn Frey calling their ‘Long Road Out of Eden Tour’ the “Eagles’ Assisted-Living Tour”.
-Timothy B. Schmidt singing “I Can’t Tell You Why”
-Don Henley singing “The Long Run” to Joe Walsh (and promptly having his advances shut down).
- The harmonies backing up Glenn Frey on “Take it to the Limit” – ethereal.
- Favourite Song of the evening:  “In the City”
Here is them performing that song (quite a few years ago now – but you get the idea):

And now, a little Eagles-through-the-years for you to enjoy:
