"There's Gonna Be a Heartache Tonight"


Talk amongst ourselves
Don and I went to see the NML show last night, and guess who it was? Glen Frey, from the Eagles and his band. It was pretty cool, and he was great. Yep, it all came back to me the minute the intro started. Dee deedle dee,dum,dee dum dum dee dee dee..."It's another tequila sunrise starin' slowly cross the sky, said goodbye", and "Take it easy, take it ea-easy, Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy",and "Somebody's gonna come undone, before the night is through"and of course the best encore, "Desperado,you'd better come to your senses, you've been out ridin fences for so long, now." It was awesome, but also makes you think about the fact that there was not ONE happy song in the whole set, just melancholyness. Therefore it was not as rollicking as,say, Steely Dan's "Never Going Back to My Old School" or Michael McDonald's "Minute by Minute", both of which rocked the house at Summerfest in June. Of course you might not get as much rocking from about 20,000 insurance agents as you would from some partying, middle aged hippies at Summerfest(plus many of their children,mine included) Anyway for a free night, Don and I had a great time, and sang along on almost every song. How many of you know these songs?
We actually thought about Pat, and knew that he would have THOROUGHLY enjoyed every minute of the concert. Glenn Frey and Don Henley founded the Eagles, and although Henley is more well known, it's Glenn's voice on all the big opening lines! Happy birthday Julia, way down in North Carolina! I love you! I interviewed 2 candidates for teacher position today, one more to go. The problem is, that they both were so great, I don't know which one I like best! Such a problem I can live with. I sound like Tevye, May God strike me with riches, and may I never recover!(something like that) Okay, I've rambled long enough. I'd better publish this before I reread it and cancel the whole thing. Bye all!

  • I guess I'm just a bleeding heart liberal, and it seeped in! Actually, I was just having fun with the buttons.

  • Glenn Fry is the BEST!! Love those Eagles. They always give me a "Peaceful Easy Feeling - Cause I know they won't let me down"
