We went with friends to see the Hotel California show when they were here. The entire first set was the Hotel California album, note for note. It may have actually BEEN the recording, and they even show a video as though they are putting the stylus to an album. I could have closed my eyes (well, I DID close my eyes at times) and imagined I was in my living room listening to the CD. The difference was, in my living room I could have changed the channel. The second act was a little better, but just OK. I get that some people LOVE them. A college buddy has seen them at least a dozen times. The rest of our group that night LOVED the evening, but dinner before was the highlight for me. I don’t HATE the Eagles, but I usually change the channel when they come on. I don’t know if it’s because they have been so overplayed over the years, but I look for something better. .

Schmidt. Schmidt checked all of the boxes - most importantly singing ability and high range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not looking to “tickle your fancy” (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but at this time tomorrow I’ll be at an Eric Clapton performance with the wife and friends. THAT is a show I look forward to. I’d also love to see Van Morrison, but that would have required travel (forget where) and the tix were $1,200 each. Seriously? We got 4 good Clapton seats for that!

We got 4 good Clapton seats for that! i'd be completely down' for clapton, but i honestly wouldn't expect much. a lot of these guys just don't sound great anymore, but i have to imagine clapton still puts on a show. i like van morrison too, but for $1200, i better be sitting on his lap...even then. while i'm at it, you know who i just can't handle either? james taylor. i just want to fall asleep after listening to that *****.

I saw James Taylor once and it was worth every penny! We were in high school with nothing to do so we drove up to Niagara Falls for kicks. Saw that he was playing up there, and a hobby of my friends was sneaking into concerts. They had done it dozens of time, but it was my first time. You always remember the first time, right? I was shocked by how many “old people” were there. You know, people about half my age now. Anyway, we all walked up to separate gates about the same time….and just RAN! Nobody even chased us, which was almost disappointing to this stupid young kid. Then I had to pay the ultimate price - sitting thru the concert….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
