The Eagles!

Cat and I took in the Eagles concert with our parents this weekend.

I've not always been a fan of the band - a few songs of theirs are on my most-hated-songs-of-all-time list. (All She Wants To Do Is Dance, for example).

After Friday night's show, I can no longer call the Eagles anything but absolutely freaking incrediblawesome. When those 4 gentlemen hit the harmonies, shivers go up your spine. Add that feeling to a three hour plus long show, and the fact that all 4 main members are superstars in their own rights, and you've got a night that's worth the $115 seat!

I mean, this was Don freakin' HENLEY drumming and singing in front of me! (Not to be confused with Don HENRY, who sold us our High Efficiency Furnace last year!)

I've always loved Hotel California...although that may be because I think it's about robot vampires...
