Yes, Glenn, but it wouldn't hurt to add one song from LROOE. Just one!

Agree Brooke! LROOE was a huge selling album with some great songs- I am sure the audience would not get restless hearing one or two songs from their later work. I would love to hear waiting in the weeds for example or no more cloudy days!
I think it is a shame that the man who so extolled the virtues of doing new material (although they were old songs) on the After Hours tour should revert to type as soon as he returns to the Eagles. He doesn't seem to realise that people can come to love those songs too. It makes you wonder if the next time he does a solo show will he drop the After Hours songs. If so, I feel even more privileged that I saw those songs (and twice as privlleged that I saw the LROOE tour).
Aaauuuggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously? Fans do want to hear the old stuff, but for those who watched the documentary on Showtime (or even bought it) might be curious about some of the songs from LROOE. It wouldn't have killed them to play at least ONE song from the album. Actually, not playing any made me wonder if they regretted ever putting out LROOE and just wanted to forget about it.
I did get to hear How Long at the first LA Forum show, so all was not lost, and I feel so very fortunate to have been at that show. I've heard the song many times live, but hearing it as part of the Eagles History was special.

You can't change the world but you can change yourself.
Remember how in HOTE LROOE was only given about 10 minutes of discussion. It's like it never happened.
I'm kinda confuse. I find it strange that they kept LWKUA in the set for all those years, but yet they wouldn't put not one song from the LROOE album in the set. What's the difference. Its part of history now. This album showed that people will still buy their music. Would they had not put LWKUA in the setlist for this tour if LROOE was never made.
I like the album. I don't mind having new songs in shows, but I do also want to hear the hits.
I think they keep LWKUA because it was a number 1 hit for them. Also, that gives Timothy two songs to sing. It was off of the HFO record, so even including it, they still don't have anything newer than the mid-90's. I love some of the songs from LROOE. I wish they would include at least one.
