You know you're addicted to the Eagles when....

[sodascouts]

I'm going back to the question... you know you're addicted to the Eagles when... you are suffering badly from PEW. Where is the thread on PEW? Did I miss it?

There I as at dinner last night w/my DH and son and my mind is drifting off to the concert. I'm listening to them... but my mind is a million miles away, as I "thought" I heard an Eagles song being played in the backgroud, but I was mistaken.

I'm suffering bad right now. Is there something you can take for that? I mean, I'm literally sad! (How pathetic is that?)

There actually is a thread for this... but it's a few months old, and easily missed:

Suffice it to say... you are not alone!

Your husband, guitar player/co-worship leader at church with me, kicks into the Rocky Mountain Way during rehearsal - now he wants a talk box!

Hi Anne and welcome!! So, does Hubby do this during services as well? Because if so, Im coming to your church!! *G*

My 5 yr old doesn't sing the songs, but she can point out ALL the band members, tell you who's who and what they play! (as well as make commentary on them such as "That's Joe, Mommy loves him")

All I can say is, ya gotta start em early on the right path *G* Sounds like you're a good Mommy! *G*

You know you're addicted to the Eagles when....

...you your sister and her friend persuade to go to an Eagles concert although both know no song.
...you hear only Eagles (at home, in the car or at the work) and you makes everybody crazy with it.
....and any second word is Eagles, Glenn, Don, Joe, Tim or the name of a song.

Welcome from me too Ann! I'm glad to hear you have your educational priorities right for your kids! Lol! Keep up the good work

[TimothyBFan]

Welcome Anne!! Sounds like you are raising your daughter right! Quite a few of us here have children that our huge Eagles fans also. Smart kids!!

[DonFan]

Welcome from me too, Anne! Both my daughters are Eagles fans, too!

[anne-o-gg]

Thanks for such warm welcomes, everyone! Truly, we are kindred spirits!

My oldest daughter sent me flair on facebook that says "successful parenting is when you find 80's music on your child's i-pod"...think I'll make one about finding Eagles music on there!

ticky - he doesn't do it in the service, not that he wouldn't love to! We're convinced God put a little rocker in all of us, lol...

ltl - sounds like you have a bad case of PEW. I think it's time to pull out any Eagles DVD you own (HFO, F1, bootlegs, etc.) and begin sight therapy ASAP. I have to warn you though, many hours of viewing may be needed before there is any noticeable improvement in your condition and there is no known cure.

Hmmm, Rocky Mountain Way at church....I can dig it!!!

BTW, welcome Anne!! Always good to have new members aboard.

My younger sister and her husband are part of a non-traditional church's worship team, as members of a rock band functioning as a church orchestra. He plays lead guitar and she plays bass, and they often perform popular music that, with some imagination, can be interpreted to apply to God or Christianity (U2's "One" for instance). They say it brings in people who may otherwise get bored in church. I'm not so sure about some of the songs they choose.... honestly I think it's quite a stretch to make a song like "One" applicable to Christ/Christianity... but their hearts are in the right place.
