Eagles - Long Road Out of Eden Tour 2010

Fred and I started out with plans to go to dinner and a movie in Nampa on a Sunday afternoon. Nampa is Fred's boyhood stomping grounds - born, schooled and grew up on many farms in the Nampa area. We had dinner at the House of Fong, and then remembered the Eagles were in concert at the Idaho Center. Why not check it out and see if there are tickets available? It doesn't hurt to check it out, so we ended up buying two tickets two hours before show time! We've seen the Eagles twice, almost 16 years to the day when they reunited in 1994. We flew into San Diego, planned a long weekend to see the Eagles on the 2nd night of their reunion tour at Jack Murphy Stadium. It was incredible and a stadium filled with nearly 50,000 fans. Fast forward to 2002 and we saw them again, in Nampa at the Idaho Center. And, now again in 2010. We've all aged, their voices aren't quite as high, but man oh man, they are still the best, and classic country rock at it's finest.

A$20 movie date night turned into a $200 Eagles concert!

Real Eagle groupies with their 2010 tour t-shirts pre-concert (we don't know them, just wanted a picture of the t-shirt and saved myself $25)

Don Henley on drums

Glen Frey on guitar

Timothy B. Schmidt on vocals (and he had surgery 2 weeks prior so the concert was rescheduled to May 30)

Joe Walsh on vocals (his face is frozen .. botox?)

The Eagles saying good-bye Idaho. Thank you for a great concert!
