Thanks for the news, Carol-Lynn!

Possible Eagles/Fleetwood Mac summer tour?

It's just in the proposal stage right now, but according to LiveDaily, it's a possibility.

Eagles play private party

According to Lucy Walsh's Twitter, the Eagles were hired by some rich guy to play at his party along with John Mayer in Napa on Nov. 28. Must be nice to be that loaded! You gotta shell out seven figures to get the guys to sing at your soiree, and that's not even counting the additional cash the dude had to cough up for John Mayer so his guests could slow dance to "Your Body Is a Wonderland"!

To see what the guys playing at a party might look like, check out the video for "Busy Being Fabulous" on their official MySpace:

Eagles Radio Features Some Interviews Starting Labor Day Weekend

Got this from the Orlando Sentinel:

"Beginning September 4th, A.P.E. Radio will begin to air guitar hero Walsh's down-to-earth conversations with his friends and fellow rock stars including Ringo Starr, AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson and Mike Rutherford(Genesis, Mike + the Mechanics)."

Should be interesting!

Eagles appear in "People Celebrates the 70s!"

Is it unreasonable to thumb through People Magazine Celebrates the '70s while waiting in line at the grocery store, hoping the Eagles get a mention... and then gasping in delight when you see a two-page photo spread? Of course not! Pages 66-67 under "Music Monster Acts." Nice! On sale now. (Sadly Fleetwood Mac only gets a small inset, but the full page photo of Stevie Nicks is nice. Relevant here because she dated both Don and Joe).

Party of Two did show at the Bellagio last weekend

Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh, aka "The Party of Two," did a show at the Bellagio in Las Vegas last weekend.

Don't feel bad that you didn't know - it was a private show so you couldn't have gone anyway!

Widescreen Wallpapers

I got a new laptop and discovered to my dismay that none of my wallpapers looked good on a widescreen with its wider proportions. To rectify that, I created widescreen versions of all of my Eagles wallpapers. Click on the thumbnail to view the widescreen version of the wallpaper, which obviously will be somewhat changed from the original it represents.

Eagles Radio Launches Tomorrow!

We turn 2 today!

With all the hustle and bustle and trying to wrap up Henley's birthday treats (which has turned into "Don Henley Week" since I've been putting up stuff every day!) I almost forgot that EaglesOnlineCentral.com was opened two years ago today. My, how time flies! I will be marking the occasion with some treats this coming week. Dang, July is a busy month, isn't it?

Anyway, thanks for all the folks who come and visit. This site may be dedicated to the Eagles, but it exists for their fans.

Right on the heels of Leadon's birthday, we have Henley's. Check out DHO for some graphics... more to come later this week.

Eagles lose the suits for Utah show!

For the Utah show, the Eagles performed casual. We''ll see if they do this for Europe and have truly gotten rid of those suits, or if it was simply because the Rio Tinto Stadium is outdoors. Regardless, it's nice to see!

Check out photos and a review in the Deseret News.

Thanks to CM and HitFix.com!
