Anyone having login issues for the ticket drop today?

Good lord…just watched Henley “singing” Boys of Summer at their Atlanta gig at Truist Park.

He is so far off trying to mime.

I really hate this. This is my favorite band.

I plan to buy tickets for one of the new dates in November, tomorrow morning during the presale. Some questions:

• Did Ticketmaster prices drop towards the date of the event, or did resellers get all of the good seats at that point?
• What was the resale market like? If Ticketmaster is pricing them in the high-hundreds or over a thousand, is it worth waiting for resale tickets to drop in price?
• Do presale tickets sales usually eat up all of the better sections? Or, if presale doesn't work out, or tickets are dynamically priced really high, will I have better luck during other presales and/or the general on-sale date? Or will it likely be the same experience?
• What is the likelihood that I'll get a better deal on resale, compared to dynamically (or normally) priced tickets on Ticketmaster?

I understand if these shows might be a different experience, considering that they've already had dozens of shows, but I'd like to get a general idea of what to expect. I'm hoping to get 2 tickets in the 200s or 300s sections for my mom.

Update: After 30 minutes of nonstop errors since the Waiting Room opened at 9:45 (on-sale time was 10am), I got into two queues at 144k and 220k in line (at around 10:15am.) Maybe 45 mins minutes later (11am,) I started getting into seat selection. Ended up getting Sect. 308, Row 2 for $402 (Official Platinum) and $526 (Eagles Hot Ticket Package) before fees, $1,193 after fees. Time of sale: 11:08am (68 mins after planned on-sale.) They are side-by-side, but different pricing tiers.

My son and I are going to The Eagles concert tonight in Nashville. There is an opener we have never heard of. What time have The Eagles actually taken the stage in their last few shows?

We are getting something to eat and the restaurant is slow.

Realized the Eagles are playing the weekend I’ll be in Ft. Worth, so grabbed two tickets. Not familiar with the venue/area at all (coming from TN), so a few questions
- do we need to purchase parking beforehand?
- is the venue interesting enough to warrant arriving early when parking opens? I’m comparing it to the Battery in Atlanta next to Truist park, where there are tons of restaurants and shops….similar or is it just the stadium?
- will people arrive early and tailgate at all? We’ve done that for concerts before - loaded up a cooler and snacks - and can be a fun way to meet people and get excited for the show.

Any other tips?

Thank you!!

In the movie “The Country Bears,” Don Henley makes a cameo and refers to the performance (voiced by Bonnie raitt and himself) as “better than the eagles.”

Alright, so I’ve done something like this with The Highwaymen and seeing what a current day lineup what look like for them. I wanted to try and see what a modern day lineup for The Eagles would look like for y’all and suggestions for who could be members?

All of this discussion is in good fun due to The Eagles claiming they are finishing touring at the end of the year (I won’t hold my breath).

So far I’ve only thought of Derek Trucks and Billy Strings as 2 good ones. Not sure about bass, drums or any other member (6th member?). Let me hear your thoughts, I’d greatly appreciate it.

Recently discovered how great Outlaw Man is. It got me wondering, what are some of y’all’s favorite lesser known songs?

Well if you missed any of the other 58 Sphere shows, good news is you STILL have time. 6 more dates added today for the fall.

One weekend in September, 2 in November. Sept. 18-19, Nov. 13-14 and 27-28 (Thanksgiving).

Every Eagles song I’ve listened to a live version of online is far and away better than any studio version I can find. I’d guess this is a common opinion but it really is uncanny. Almost no other band I’ve found has the same experience.
