Eagles Concert

What can I say about the Eagles concert? It was freakin' awesome. They played all the songs that I wanted played and more. Wonderful performances and all. It was a shame that the original people going weren't able to come.
More on the concert later when I wake up?
Edit: A bit more on the concert...
The song set was probably this:
Take It Easy
Witchy Woman
Peaceful, Easy Feeling
One Of These Nights
New Kid In Town
I Can't Tell You Why
Lyin' Eyes
One Day At A Time
Boys Of Summer
In The City
The Long Run
Tequila Sunrise
Love Will Keep Us Alive
No More Cloudy Days
Hole In The World
Take It To The Limit
Walk Away
Sunset Grill
Life's Been Good
Dirty Laundry
Funk 49
Heartache Tonight
Life In The Fast Lane
Hotel California
Rocky Mountain Way
All She Wants To Do Is Dance
Already Gone
Desperado
So, while the tickets claimed the concert would start at 8:00PM, the setup dragged on until 8:30PM. During that time, I drank some beer, and just chatted with George, Ann, and my folks. Then, the show began.
The Eagles started with "Take It Easy," and quickly followed up with a whole bunch of other tunes including Witchy Woman, and Lying Eyes (dedicated to Glenns first wife Plaintiff). During this set, Glenn informed the crowd "Angels 11 - 7," and the crowd went wild. After about an hour worth of playing, they ended the set with "In the Long Run" (where Joe Walsh comically stated that he partied once for 20 years) and took a 15 minute break.
The second set started off with a short clip titled "Eagles - Home Movies," and showed them in the 70s doing various things. Then, they immediately launched into Tequilla Sunrise, and followed it with their entire acoustic set all the way down to "Take it to the Limit" ("or as my wife calls it, the credit card song").
The third set got them rocking again, and they blasted through song after song, including "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Dirty Laundry." They ended their set with "Life in the Fast Lane," and immediately exited stage right. After much cheering, they came back on and played "Hotel California," and "All She Wants To Do Is Dance," after which all the band members and the Eagles once again exited stage right. Finally, after a lot more cheering, they came back on stage to play "Already Gone," and "Desperado."
I think my favorite parts of the show have got to be Lyin' Eyes, and Joe Walshs wonderful Ad-libbing with his songs. Although they didn't have a banjo in their Take It Easy, it was still an incredible concert.
