    Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere on the board and I've missed it. Tim visits his old high school:

    Oh, sweet interview. Tim just reminded me of how I played the tuba in the Jr. High & high school band, (oh, and I was like 5' 2" & 90 lbs. & nobody could believe I was playing the tuba, but I was actually pretty good. lol

    Ok Timothy. You have fans all across the country, not just the west or east coast!

    Ahem, all around the world.
    And those who can get to London would love to see you again. Soon. Please, pretty please.

    At least Tim did do some shows in the UK, which is more than the other three have in recent years.

    I don't dispute that, FP. (And I was lucky enough to get a front row seat in London.)
    I was just correcting Brooke's comment, in which she limited his fans to the US.
    In fairness, Tim did have an album, Expando, to plug, and the others haven't released any solo albums recently. (Don 2000, and Glenn and Joe both 1992 from what I can see, excluding compilation albums.)

    I acknowledge that there are lots of factors to take into account when thinking of doing solo shows. Even with a relatively small band costs soon add up, and with seats for Tim's shows costing £40 in London in a venue seating about 900 I do wonder how much profit was actually made from the trip to the UK. To my shame, I can't remember if there were three or four backing musicians, three singers, Tim (and Jean). So say 9, plus there may have been a couple of roadies, so that makes 11. London hotels for say two nights at £200 per person per night (my nothing-special place was £140, so £200 is a very modest estimate), plus meals. Add transport to the UK (business class minimum), in the UK, venue hire, etc, and the costs soon mount up. So I can understand any of the Eagles not doing solo dates in the UK - or indeed anywhere else in the world apart from the US and possibly Canada.
    It must also be tricky trying to find places that are small enough to accommodate the smaller fan base that an individual Eagle might have yet being large to cover the costs whilst keeping the ticket prices reasonable.

    Sorry about that UKTF. I certainly didn't mean to leave out the rest of the world. I know Tim has fans worldwide. I was just being selfish for myself!
