I Saw
the Show In: Atlantic City, my "home away from
home."---Beyond awesome
place to see a concert, Boardwalk Hall is a super
place to see a concert.
My Favorite Part: Moving up to the 4th row center at
the beginning of the
encores.
My Least Favorite Part: It ended way too soon---NEVER
ENOUGH EAGLES!!!!!!!!!
The Band Members Were: FANTASTIC (as usual), but
slightly subdued because
they had lost a dear friend (Rafael) and, thus,
dedicated "Hole in the World" to
his memory.
The Show Made Me Feel: Like I was 20 years younger
last night---exhausted
today because I only slept 3 hours last night.
One Thing I'll Never Forget: All of it, I love those
Guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Other Comments: I think that my husband summed it up
best when he made the
observation that it was the only place he has been to
in many years where
everyone there seemed to be totally happy. I think
that is part of the key to why
the Eagles have stayed vital over the years (other
that their obvious wonderful
talent, of course) is because they make folks feel
young again (even it is
for only a few hours. As I was leaving Boardwalk Hall
last night, I was
listening to what others around me were saying to each
other and the common thread was
that they just plain had so much fun!!!!! And the best
part of the whole
thing is that AC was on the second leg in my "Eagles
Summer Extravaganza", I'm
going out to Las Vegas in two weeks to see them one
more time this
summer--------way too totally absolutely
COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

THE EAGLES ROCKED THE
ROOF OFF THIS OLD CONVENTION CENTER.IT WAS A PACKED
HOUSE AND "WOW WHAT A SHOW".THE LIGHTING AND VIDEO
SHOW WAS AWSOME AND ADDED A SENSE OF BEING IN THE

JERZEE JOE WALSH DO SOME JAMES GANG WAS GREAT. IT KIND
OF LET YOU GET THE FEEL FOR THE EAGLES MELLOW
HARMONIES AND EASY GUITAR THAT MAKE THEM GREAT.THE
BRASS SECTION WAS A VERY SPECIAL SURPRISE THAT ADDED A
NEW DIMENSION THAT EVERYONE ENJOYED...NEEDLESS TO SAY
IT WAS JUST "GREAT"...THANK YOU EAGLES |

I saw the show in... Atlantic City, what a great
venue!! Boardwalk Hall
was a fantastic place to see a concert. It's a
smaller venue, more
intimate. Our seats were on the second level to the
right of the stage
and were great (at $200 each they should be). The
sound was far better
than in a larger arena, you could actually understand
the words. We saw
the tour last year in Columbus Ohio and this was far
better.
My favorite part was... so hard to pick one thing but
I have to say the
harmonies. They were outstanding, classic Eagles.
My least favorite part was.... not getting to hear
Seven Bridges Road,
I had the set list so I knew they weren't going to
sing it but... I
wish they had changed the set list a little more from
last year.
The band members were..... fantastic. Don Henley can
still hit all the
notes perfectly. Timothy did an outstanding job on
Love Will Keep Us
Alive, he is so under rated. Glen was a little flat
at times but all in
all did a great job and was the only one to talk to
the audience. Joe
is the clown, he gets the crowd going with his antics
(and what's with
those pants and shoes?). The replacement for Felder
was great, he
should be named an Eagle, maybe after the lawsuit with
Felder is over he
will become part the group.
The show made me feel..... awesome. Seeing the Eagles
live was on my
life list and I thought I had missed out on the
opportunity but then l
got to see them last year and now to see them the
second time-WOW.
These guys are my age so I'm pretty impressed with how
great they sound
after all these years.
One thing I'll never forget is...the strains of Hotel
California. The
song started with a horn solo, which was superb. The
crowd went
absolutely nuts, so much so that the horn player
stopped and waited
until the cheering eased up a bit, started over and
the crowd went nuts
again.
Other comments: It was a fantastic experience. I
loved every minute of
it. The only thing I would change would be to have
them add a little
more conversation with the audience. Of course they
could add more
songs too, but that's a lot to ask, after all the show
was 3 hours. I
also have to give a pat on the back to the crowd,
everyone was well
behaved and very, very enthusiastic. If you get the
chance to go, don't
hesitate, who knows how many opportunities you will
get to see these
legends and hear their great harmonies!!!

I attended the
concert given by the eagles, in Atlantic city this
past weekend. July 25, 2003
I had been comp'ed tickets from Ceasars hotel. I do
enjoy listening to the eagles music, however, as I am
not a devoted fan, I will offer my feelings on the
concert.
I felt that the concert which was just about 3 hours
long could have been reduced to about 1 1/2hours. If
seems as though all their best music was saved for the
last 1/2 hour. Except for a few recognizable songs
throughout the show. Also, I am from NEW YORK, as I
believe almost half the audience was that night. I did
not appreciate the comment made by one of the eagles
members regarding NEW YORK. A word to the wise......
DON'T SPIT IN THE WIND....
Don't think I would attend another show after hearing
that comment.
