Take it Easy

Sorry that I've been blogging a lot lately. It's been kinda like therapy to me lately-just letting it all out. I've been listening to a lot of my Last.fm stuff lately (see sidebar) .I have it set for a certain station and it's bringing me back memories of how cool classic rock is. I missed it so much!

As I was listening to this station, one of my favorite bands came up. The Eagles. I remember seeing the Eagles at Alpine Valley in East Troy, WI during their 1994 Hell Freezes Over Tour. It's only an hour drive (or less) from where I live. Anyways, it was a GREAT show! The vibes were unbelievable! It was like a peaceful, easy feeling. The audience was singing along with the music so loud that Don Henley announced that " Do we have to sing?" And that included their solo stuff! It was the most laid back concerts that I have ever been to. And YES, I do have a copy of this show in my music collection.

Hey . that's really great you gotta see the Eagles live ! By that one line you said above :"Do we need to sing", I just can imagine how wonderful the concert would have been !

It was so surreal, its beyond words. Just hearing the audience singing away to "New Kid in Town" gave me the goosebumps!

Love, love, love that oldie-but-goodie concert!!

I paid an arm and a leg to see them last year--I even had to drive four hours away and was going directly into the eye of Hurricane Ike--but it was fantastic!!

They're pretty much my all-time favorite band ever, and, as you can see, I did almost anything to see them.
