    Default Favoruite moments from the Capital Centre DVD

    Apologies if this has been done before, but I saw it done for F1 and although there's not much to go at I still have a few moments on this DVD I really like:

    - Joe's wonderful firecracker speech after Hotel California
    - Joe's head-bobbing during NKIT
    - Joe's knowing stare during after one of the 'one more time's in TITTL
    - Glenn's enormous smile and the audience's cheer when Randy pulls off the long note during the above song
    - Felder's solo during OOTN, the more I hear it the more I think it's one of the best an Eagle ever did
    - The general merriness before, during and after Take It Easy

    Anyone else?

    I think this has been mentioned in other threads but we've never had a thread dedicated solely to our favorite moments. Good idea! You've named several that came to mind immediately, especially Glenn's smile. I'll have to give it some thought for some others!

    I love Glenn's smile on that DVD! Great idea for a discussion thread. I must watch the DVD again to get some more ideas! (Any excuse!)

    Sorry, I should specify, it's the one that came with the Deluxe edition (I think) of the History of the Eagles doc. Washington March '77 if that helps.

    I'm reviving this thread since today is the 4th anniversary of the DVD/Blu-Ray release. I watched part of the documentary on CNN, but it wasn't until I bought the DVD that I watched it in its entirety, as well as the entire concert uninterrupted. I am very grateful there was a DVD release at all, given the band's history of releasing concert footage.

    I agree with lastresort's favorite moments. I would also add that I love Don H's expressions when he sings "Best of My Love" and the audience applause after Don F plays the pedal steel part. I also love hearing the audience applaud after the beautiful harmony about 4 minutes in when they sing the words the best of myyy looove. Overall the performance of this song is lovely with them all in front performing.

    Delilah - I could not agree more. I love watching that concert.
    As a side note, I have to say I was at many a concert in the 70's and very early 80's where people threw fireworks. Once one almost hit myself and the friends I was with. I do not remember any kind of security back then. Kind of crazy when you think about it know.

    I can't imagine what people were thinking popping firecrackers at concerts.

    Bringing up Glenn reminds me of another favorite moment--when he points at someone in the audience towards the end of "Take It Easy."
