Eagles in Australia???

[Freypower]

NB Carol Lynn: I am the only Australian member of this board.

I picked up the paper knowing there would be something and literally the page I opened had the article. I have now registered with frontiertouring.com for the presale on Wednesday (although they claim there will also be iloveallaccess packages).

I intend to go to both Sydney shows. I am a bit baffled that they are doing the Entertainment Centre. They have never played there. I will try and get the Acer ticket first as that is the second show and I would rather have a closer ticket (if possible) for the second night.

I imagine the tickets will be very expensive so I don't think I will be going to a non-Sydney show.

I will keep you posted.

How do the two places compare in size? If one is a bigger place, are the tickets usually cheaper?

Julie, wonderful news for you!

The Ent Cent holds about 12000 while Acer holds about 15000. The Ent Cent tickets won't be cheaper.

(I remembered later that although the band hasn't played the Ent Cent, Glenn certainly has).....

Last night a trailer came on for the tour and gave the date as 'November 19 - Sydney Superdome' as Acer was then. It was the 2004 tour ad. I am going to send a terse email to Froniter.

Also a trailer came on for the TV show Hey Hey It's Saturday. The band will be interviewed by the host Daryl Somers and it will be shown this Wednesday night (it's a long story). I will be out that night, at the Yusuf concert, so my long suffering hubby is going to record it for me.

Glenn was on HHIS back in 1992 when he was doing a promo tour for Strange Weather. He sang I've Got Mine and was subjected to excruciating puns directed at him by the show's stick puppet (I am not joking). It was the most Spinal Tap moment of his career so I did not keep the footage.

This continues a long tradition of the Eagles using the Channel Nine network to make announcements about their Australian visits. I have Channel Nine news and interview footage from 1995 and 2004.

Not that it matters but I now know the Platinum ticket price.

It is $669.60.

Thanks FP. I'm looking into flights from LA to Melbourne for two of the shows. I'll be on XMAS break so it's doable. I already signed up with Frontier Touring for the presale starting Wednesday but I don't expect much as most presales here suck! Keep us posted state-side.

MAN THAT WAS PAINFUL!

But are you ready for this?

I have FRONT ROW for both nights.

I have FRONT ROW CENTRE for Ent Cent and Front Row Joe's side for Acer. It's Seat 45 - if that is right over on the far side I don't care.

So whatever your name is, 'it's your face I'm looking for on every street'.

No seriously, it's a good result.
