Re: The Dec8 1976 concert in Champaign Urbana is not listed
That's awesome. Are you sure the Eagles opened for the Marshall Tucker Band though? Wouldn't it have been the other way around. The Eagles were much more successful and popular.

Re: The Dec8 1976 concert in Champaign Urbana is not listed
Thanks for the responses.
Do you think Joe Walsh would remember? Absolutley POSITIVE the Eagles opened for MTB. (turns out that in 1974, the MTB opened for the Eagles in Champaign-Urbana and the Eagles got booed for playing only slow-by-comparison acoustic sets as the main act). BTW Joe will return to Champaign-Urbana in 2017 touring with Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers ... maybe November.
I graduated in Jan1977, so I am sure the concert occurred in that narrow window of the album release and 1st of January. I remember skiing in the Rockies in late January 1977, and telling a ski lift operator at the top, that the skiing felt like the new Eagles song "Life In The Fast Lane".
She had no idea what I was talking about!
The utube video is special because it essentially captures the concert and the band as we saw them in Dec1976. The video title on utube:
https://goo.gl/rM6mFj is "
The Eagles Live 1977 Full Concert HD (The Capital Centre)" uploaded by Music Home. Just uploaded in Mar2017 so it may not last long if it is a copyright infringement ... but SOOO special.
Also, checked out the Randy Meisner concert list and have a potential correction/addition that I can support via the Illio annual yearbook that shows the Marshall Tucker Band played with The Eagles and it mentions the gentle acousitc sets of The Eagles concert that day (and the booing of The Eagles). Randy does NOT MENTION the MTB as "Also Performing".
Ironically, I can not provide the same Illio support for the Dec8th 1976 concert I am chatting about!! How strange... it is as if it did not happen. I know they played Hotel California that day. Was I on another timeline??? haha where is Dr Who when you need him.
Cheers

I found a webpage that lists 1 concert in Australia as:

http://www.setlist.fm/stats/concert-...html?year=1976
The same page lists 6 concerts in Japan as:
