    Yep - I think PEW can strike at anytime, no matter how many times or how long it's been since you've been to a show. Of course, there is no known cure. Even seeing another show will not prevent it from attacking you. However, you all have listed most of the known remedies used to treat the symptoms. I guess things could be worse, but it seems as if we're all just plagued for life.

    I'm feeling it too, and, due to it's apparent lack of relevance to whether we've seen a show or not, I'd say we're all afflicted by something different and far more chronic...

    Even if there is no know cure, at least the treatment is enjoyable!

    Troub, aren't we hopeless, LOL!

    I have it. Bad.

    My Scottish friend who is out in Australia at the moment told me on FB today that the Eagles were playing where she works (in Melbourne) the other night. I didn't realise she was working at a concert venue... Why wasn't I there?! I'm trying not to think fantastical thoughts about how she might have been able to sneak me in to some kind of restricted area, but... sigh!

    She's been talking about how great it would be to have me visit for ages. Not that I have the money right now... Think I'll have another listen to the live version of Take It To The Limit and sob into my cup of tea.

    Oh Troub, I feel your pain! To have a friend working an Eagles concert and not be able to be there (or not make plans to be there in time) really must suck. But honestly, I have a feeling that you will see them again - they're not done with us yet!

    In the meantime do what I'm doing. Watch videos and dvds and play the heck out of your mp3. I just downloaded the Indianapolis youtube video of Take It Easy and I'm in heaven reliving that show!

    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Yeah Troub - I can't imagine how you must feel - so close, yet so far away!

    Now me - I just feel far away!

    Oh Troub, this must be hard!
    Hope after listening Take It To The Limit and a cup tea, you feel better now!

    Oh so THAT is what I'm feeling!!

    I've been desperately trying to prolong the high since 21st Dec (Melbourne)... have bought 3 CD's (a live one, the Very Best Of and LROOE), hung out on YouTube and was so fortunate to find this site and people who don't think I'm obsessing... much...

    My other favourite is daydreaming about a new DVD from the current tour, and what "extra features" I would like on it - my imagination can go into overdrive woohoo! Is it worth starting a new thread on what we'd like to see on a new DVD?

    I've got this too. My kids and my DH think I am obsessed with the eagles (and Don Henley). Okay so I am ........ and I can admit it.

    I have just spent 1 hour and 40 mins delivering papers with my DD and the whole way round my i-pod had Don and Eagles music filling my ears. Makes me happy though. Other than that I am always checking out for new pics and info online, and listening to their music by cd, i-tunes or a dvd. It's what led me here too. Now I can share my obsession with like minded people.
