as i type this i am watching the eagles' farewell concert I, live from melbourne, australia, being telecast over at star world. man, these guys are the shit - they're still class acts even though they're 'round 40-60 years old. of course, it seems that don henley has never hit puberty, but that's what makes the songs great, innit?
it's a shame, however, that don felder had to be kicked out from the group. i had always thought that don felder > joe walsh (as seen on hotel california from hell freezes over) and i really wanted to hear visions... as if they would actually play it. joe walsh was always the mid-tempo slow rocker kinda guy (listen to his songs, from rocky mountain way to the rather candidly amusing I.L.B.T.s) and i preferred don felder's much more energetic style.
timothy schmit is as mellow as ever. i prefer his high voice to don henley's.
one of these naaaaaaaaghts!
