Everyone has heard of The Eagles, right? Well I was given the opportunity to go see them live in what is supposedly their final tour named after their new CD Long Road Out Of Eden. Of course the Hell Freezes Over tour was supposed to be their last tour too, so who know maybe they will do another one in a few years.
I am a huge eagles fan so I was excited to go see them them live for the first time. And let me say that they did not disappoint.
Some of you know that I am a sound and lighting guy in my spare time and normally when I go to a concert I cannot get away from how bad something sounds or how bad the lights look, etc. It is like a curse after you spend so much time in a professional vocation like lighting and sound. You can no longer just enjoy the show.
However, this is one show that I truly enjoyed. The sound was mixed awesome, everything was crystal clear, the drums had to be the best sounding drums I have ever heard. I want to know what mics they were using and how they had them EQ’d.
They did an awesome job on the lighting effects as well as the video effects behind the band. Nothing to crazy or dis-tasteful. It was a well thought out and put together show.
I am amazed that the night before I saw them in Charlottesville, VA they were in Atlanta, GA. If they tore down and setup again overnight, I am truly impressed.
The tickets were a little pricey but worth even more. The show started at 8pm and they played until after 11:30.
If you have the chance to go see them, jump on it. You can get the latest tour dates at http://www.eaglesband.com/
