The Eagles Concert

Memorable songs  touching our lives over the years. Magical musical
harmonies, tantalizing our listening ears. 


Sentimental lyrics with chosen tranquil words. Perfect sounds in those 
resonating guitar chords.


What a surreal feeling watching them play. Got lost in the moment, as
I was taken away.



Memories were made as they rocked all their fans. A Classic, Hotel
California, was played. Over and over again...





Long live Glenn Frey

One of many fans of the Eagles Band.
Dedicated to my brother Gus and his Lovely bride Elena.

James Inman Date: 7/28/2025 5:30:00 AM Michael, I just realized that I never read your first post. I like it! Beautiful memories make for beautiful poems. As for the Eagles, I enjoy much of their music but I'm not sure how I feel about each individual member. They had a rather tumultuous relationship. There seemed to be a fair amount of backstabbing and Frey's feud with Linda Ronstadt leaves you wondering about the character of both of them. Login to Reply

Charles Messina Date: 2/22/2023 5:16:00 AM How can one NOT be a fan of the Eagles. So many great hits... It was a sad day when Glen left us :( Thanks for reminding me of the Eagles :) I'll have to ask Lexa to play me some tunes today. Great first poem, Michael.

Judy Konos Date: 1/21/2016 7:37:00 AM Last night I rummaged through my DVD's. ALAS! I found my "Eagles Farewell Live from Melbourne Tour" Cranked up the Bose and was immersed for hours. Never a better more unique accurate group. It was so good I read all the credits and was sad when it was over! Love your poem "The Eagles Concert", Michael!

Edlynn Nau Date: 8/26/2015 2:13:00 AM The Eagels are my ABSOLUTLE favorite band! I had to read this. I'd just love to hear them once again live. "She came from paradise, born in Road Island. Where the old world shadows hang, heaving in the air." Poetry and music together...YES! Thank you for this fun, nostalgic poem. VERY WELL KEYED! Login to Reply Michael Tor Date: 8/26/2015 2:40:00 AM Thank you Edlynn you impress me so much. That's one of my favorites, you know the words. The Last Resort. So far I have been so impressed with the talent of my fellow Poets. Especially you. If you wrote a poetry book I would buy it. I feel guilty for reading your talents without paying. I sincerely mean that.

Jan Allison Date: 8/20/2015 4:45:00 AM What lovely memories Michael, I would dearly have loved the chance to see the Eagles - the closest I got was going to a Glenn Frey gig many years ago. I get the late night DJ on the local radio station to play me the live version of hotel California - what awesome music:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Michael Tor Date: 8/20/2015 5:32:00 AM Thank you for special words Jan...
