    Default Seeing the Eagles in July!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am barely able to contain myself-I'm going to be seeing the Eagles in July in Scotland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Here's how this all came about:
    Back in December, when the Scottish date was announced, I jokingly said to my hubby that we should go, since he is from Scotland and likes to go back and visit as much as possible. He agreed, so I went online and tried to get a ticket. I never found anything very good, so I decided if we did go over, I would just try for a ticket over there. Unbeknownst to me, my hubby got on the phone (at work), and got me a ticket!!!!!! Today, on my birthday, he told me he had gotten me a ticket to see the Eagles as a birthday present!!!! I can hardly believe it, I have just been smiling all day, in spite of the fact that I am home sick today!
    My hubby has got to be the sweetest, most understanding, person on earth! I should have suspected that way back in 1973 when he wrote that stellar review for the Desperado album. Now if I could just convince him to come with me to see them one more time...

    That is toooo cooool! It will be very interesting for you to compare how an overseas show is, given that you've seen them here a few times. Better take great notes and great photos; and that includes of the Scottish countryside! Have you ever been to Scotland before, or just Mike?

    Do we have any Borderers who reside in Scotland

    Wow! I am so, so happy for you, Carla! I know that you were crossing your fingers about the Scotland trip... How fantastic that your hubby got the tickets for you! You must have been ecstatic, especially after the recent disappointment in New Orleans. July will be a focal point for both of us Oh, and if there's any chance of me getting to Glasgow, I will be there!


    you better put it all behind you, baby, 'cause life goes on
    you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--

    What an amazing Birthday gift!!!! That's so great and I'm incredibly happy for you. Seeing the guys in concert is always amazing but to get to see them in Scotland sounds even better. That's going to be a wonderful trip for you. I bet this more than makes up for not getting to see the guys in New Orleans.

    WOW Carla--I am so happy for you. Your husband is a wonderful man. That's a man that knows what kind of gift to give a woman!

    Seeing the eagles in Scotland...that just plain rocks! But your husband isn't going with you? When TT and I went to the show in November we had a blast! Her and I were dancing in the aisle. I'll add here it is unusual for me to get up and dance...that's saying something. Egg him on, Use every power of persuasion you have (and I'm sure you have many...the Scotland ticket speaks for itself) I'm sure he won't regret it. I'm hoping they come by someplace within a four hour drive...you'll know where to find me.
