The Eagles!!!

I got an unexpected surprise last night.  I was on my way home from work when my buddy Todd called and told me to get to his house as soon as possible.  I asked why, and he said he was given two free tickets to see The Eagles.  He was going with his wife, but she's home sick and didn't feel like going.  So when he called me we had about an hour to get there. 

The tickets weren't on the front row, but they weren't too bad either.  We were on the side about halfway up the lower section.  It was so very cool!  It's called the history of the Eagles tour.  They told stories about how they met and how the band was formed.  Don Henley & Glen Fry came out first and played a few songs from the early years of the Eagles.  Then Bernie Leadon, the original guitarist of the band came out, followed by Timothy B. Schmit and Joe Walsh.  When all  five of them were out there it was so dang impressive.  They really sounded incredible!  They played for about an hour and then took a short break.  But when they came back they planed for almost another two hours.  I think they played just about every one of their hit songs.  Amazing.

I'm really going to owe Todd for calling me and inviting me to this.  I'm so happy his wife was sick!
