Available Footage?

Keven asked:

Is there any footage of the eagles shows in 1980 that make up the "eagles live" album? Also, is there any footage available from the complete mtv rehearsels from HFO? Thanks!

We've never seen a complete show from that period in the band's history. We do have this clip, though (which one day we should redo in better quality).

We've never seen any footage or recordings from the rehearsals for the MTV show. Some  audio copies of the actual audio of those shows is sometimes incorrectly labled "MTV Rehearsals" but if you want video of that, just watch the HFO DVD.

Eagles in Dublin in 1992?

Steven asked:

Does anyone have information on an Eagles recording at 'The Stadium', Dublin, Ireland in 1992? Was this a concert or is there a video/album from this recording?

The Eagles did not play in Ireland in 1992. This sounds like Glenn's Strange Weather video which was filmed at the National Stadium in Dublin in that year.

How does the band choose what songs to play in concert?

asked by Geoff

The band chooses songs that the audience will be familiar with and enjoy. They tend to stay away from album tracks, though a few of those have popped up here and there. These days, it also seems that band member voices are taken into account. Lead vocals are spaced out giving people time to rest their chords. Additionally, some of the choices are made based on where Don Henley needs to be (drums, up front, or on the percussion kit).
