Went to see the Eagles

Went to see the Eagles in the new sports arena in Dallas. Having the right friends in the right places helps. The show opened with the harmony on one song, just the four lead characters, and although my Virgo critic suggesteed that it was a little rough, at first, as the night wore on, the voices, harmony and antics got better. “… Saw a Dead Head sticker on a Cadillac — don’t look back, you can never look back…” the concert itself was excellent. Old tunes, spanning the better part of three decades… I drifted off during some songs, trying to remember where I was when I first heard a particular tune. Living throughout the American Desert Southwest for the last 30 years (not just Texas), the harmonies and the distinctly American music felt like it was closer, more meaningful. Dallas is (allegedly) hometown to one of the Eagles. I almost skipped on a t-shirt until I got a good look: European Tour 2001 [the last two towns listed were Denver and Dallas, presumeably the only American stops for this year’s tour.]
