Thanks so much for your write-up, too, FP - I am so happy for you! I can feel your energy and I can only imagine how excited you were to be that close to him.
I think it's wonderful that he changed up the set list and the outfits - I'd love to see the guys do that more. I guess a solo show must give him a certain degree of freedom that he doesn't get in an Eagles concert. Sounds like he was having a blast, too!
Well here's a few for you Ann! Sadly none of Glenn :heart: himself, as we couldn't take any in the Casino. But I hope you like a few of these at least and that they will help bring back some of those memories of such a good time.

Thanks so much, Lisa! Those are wonderful photos! Great memories! I' m really disappointed that I wasn't well enough to go down to the falls with you. Glad you got such good photos of the sign outside the Casino & the one of Glenn in the theatre lobby. Did you take any photos when we were at
lunch at the Hilton?
I have a photo of some of you at the Hilton but I would have to edit it unless Soda allows me to post it for a brief period. I have one at the Hard Rock Cafe but it's not a good shot of me.
Just send it along to me FP!
Yeah, Ann, I really felt for you not being able to go our 'Sea Cruise'. But it was rather bumpy and we were rather rained on too, so as you weren't well I think you did the right thing. At least you were able to enjoy Glenn :heart:'s second concert. It would have been a shame to have been under the weather for that!
Well, as I posted in the thread for the first show, I'm a little late to the party, but I wanted to make a few comments anyway. These shows were definitely a thrill for all of us, old and new. It was such a fun time meeting up with Borderers from so many parts of the world.
I was so happy when someone rushed the stage at this show because I definitely will never forget what a thrill it was for me to be so close to Glenn the first time that happened to me at Casino Rama. This time I went up there, but stayed back and let others get up closer since I've had my turn at that. As Glenn was singing Take It Easy, I caught a glimpse of Lisa (Glennsallnighter) standing right at Glenn's feet completely mesmerized as she stared into his eyes. That look of sheer joy on her face was priceless. It took me back to those moments I remember when I was in the very same place. For me, that was just a perfect ending to this awesome experience. It totally summed up how much this meant to so many of us who had made the trip. I hope Glenn could tell what joy he brought to so many folks those two nights. On some level, I think he must know.
I :heart: Glenn Frey!!!
Sorry you didn't get to post your thoughts sooner, Dreamer, but at least this way you allowed us to revisit it once again! Ah, happy memories!
:inlove:
I'm glad you also had a wonderful time dreamer!
Lisa, your pictures are great! Thanks for sharing them with us. Those of us that didn't get to go really appreciate it and helps us be a part. :thumbsup:
Went through Lisa's pictures and they are great! She already told me on facebook she went to see Glenn... from Ireland, wow! I've already read a bit here but I guess I have to read the whole thread LOL Seems you all had great fun!
5 years to the date which gave me the means to do this trip an interesting little postscript. Remember I said my flight was delayed on my way to Chicago? Well a few months ago I came across a website offering compensation on flights that were delayed or cancelled. I applied for this flight. I didn't really expect anything but it was no win no fee. Imagine my surprise yesterday morning when I received a cheque for over €400 in compensation!!
A bittersweet finale to my Glenn :heart: adventures
Wow, good for you, Ga! :applause:
