I last saw the Eagles a few years ago before Glenn Frey died. They brought back Bernie Leadon and they were all in their late 60s. They had tuned some of the songs to fit their aging voices but in doing so they sounded good since they weren't blowing out their voices trying to reach some of the original vocals.

That being said, since Glenn Frey has died they have replaced him with his son and added Vince Gill. I've heard good things about the shows but I'm not going to pay Eagles ticket prices when you don't have Glenn Frey or Don Felder.


I agree. I saw them a few months before Glenn died. They were excellent. I did miss Felder who, in my opinion, wrote some of the most tasteful guitar licks in music.

I loved his book, “Heaven and Hell”.

NIN tends to have Gary Numan on stage whenever possible to do a few covers,

according to Numan's instagram, they were both at a festival in Switzerland a short while back

would love to be in the audience to see Numan and NIN doing Metal (the song)


I do have tics to see Numan in DC in Sept, that will be an awesome show (saw him a few years ago for the 30th anniversary of The Pleasure Principle)

I saw OMD two years ago and they were pretty good. My friend went to Depeche Mode a few months ago and he thought their best years were behind them.

I'm not a big fan of U2's politics, but their shows are still awesome. I'd like to attend one more before they check out (or before I do!).

Probably the single greatest band, I illogically locked onto their story in the seam between Pyromania and Hysteria. But now . . . man I had to stop watching, Joe Elliot will be remembered as I knew him in 1988 not in Las Vegas:

Saw them last year (?) And it was sad. The need to hang it up

Some people are like a Slinky....not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.

I saw Neil Young's current solo tour show in Chicago a few weeks ago. He was quite good and thankfully, even in Chicago, didn't get very political.

saw OMD in the early 80's and then again about 3 or 4 yrs ago,

each was a fantastic show,

Psychedelic Furs are another band that still plays well,

goijng to see Echo & The Bunnymen soon, as well as Simple Minds (saw both a few years ago, each show was well,



if you are into 70/80's punk/new wave PIL is touring soon, Lydon still has it

Man I’m jealous of you guys that got to see OMD. It’s the one synth band I haven’t seen. Did they play anything from Sugar Tax?

Have to agree with you. That guy is high energy and can sing.

I could not find a set list for the show I saw a few years ago (about the time metroland came out)

however the 2018 set shows sailing the seven seas,

that album was not out the first time I saw them
