The Eagles

The Eagles came to my hometown not too long ago for a concert. Since I live in a smaller town, this was such a big deal! Nothing too much goes on around here. For you younger kids, The Eagles are a huge rock n' roll band from the 70's! Yes, the 70's!I love Barbra streisand, Donna Summer,The Carpenters, Disco... Such a great decade! The concert was outdoors at the stadium and there must have been around 20,000 people. I seen all age groups from younger teens to people in there 60's and 70's which was awesome. They sang all there number one hits and then some. Hearing them live was unbelievable. They sound just as good, like I remember them as a young girl. Gosh, it brought back so many memories of my youth, my family, and parents, just remembering how young they were. Everything seemed so much simpler then. It was such a cloudy evening, not cold however. I remember at times during the concert, I would be be looking up at the sky, hoping the clouds would go away and see the stars and make a wish. The stars never came. The only ones I seen were the ones onstage and that was ok by me...

There was a couple sitting next to me, actually she was SITTING on his lap, mind you, she had to be at least 5'10" so her legs were kind of in my space, and now my legs were shifting off to my left. I was a little annoyed. They kept making out, moving around, etc. I was like "are you here to see the fucking Eagles or are you here to make out?" Damn, get a room!" Talk about "Hotel California!" you know, I am all for romance but c'mon! Fuck, I didn't pay 95 bucks for a ticket to hear slurping sounds and have my legs go to sleep!" ssshhhheeesss. and these people had to be in there mid 30's or so! Hey, I'm all for getting naughty and wild, but sometimes there is a place for everything. I felt sorry for the people sitting behind them! ok, ok, enough about my rant and rave, I can get a little sarcastic sometimes but just with a little witty side...:)
