    The Eagles have their fans soaring
    FANS of the Eagles got an early Christmas present at their Rod Laver Arena show last night.

    What a great photo of Glenn! I'm going to go see if it's been put in his thread yet...

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Thanks again for all posting the links to all of these reviews, Koala. The Melbourne reviews are more positive than in some of the other Australian cities. Looks like they may be dropping Guilty of the Crime, too.

One was talking about how lackluster the show was in the first set and that with ears hammering from all the screaming volume from the band, they left during the second set! Make up your mind <LOL>

    Seriously, I got the impression that most of the negative comments were coming from people who attended the show expecting some Punk or Metal extravaganza.

    Most of the comments were good though.

    The comments relate to the Sydney shows as you can see by the dates. The SMH & Age sites are linked. You can see my 'review' at the end (by 'Julie'). I was also baffled by the 'screaming volume' comment. Didn't they hear the acoustic songs?

    Where is the full version of this thumbnail of Glenn? (Next to 'the Eagles live in Melbourne')?

    Here is undercover.fm's photo gallery at last, but the photos aren't very big:

    I am so grateful that I took my photos, even though not all of them were high standard.
