I like the Eagles, but how can a greatest hits album be the number one album ever?

The Eagles are Mostly awful.

Thriller is mostly great.

MJ's estate should do a publicity campaign.

Because their fans just want to hear the same damn songs over and over and over.
They have some decent albums cuts that are never aired.

Ever since my childhood I never really dug Micheal Jackson's music. Can't seem to ever latch on to it.

Would rather hear a Weird Al parody of his crap.

Re: The Eagles Just Broke Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ Record
Thriller is way better than that and that's not even Michael Jackson's best album (Off the wall)...
Many years you bore with them and warned them by your Spirit through your prophets. Yet they would not give ear. Therefore you gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands. You gave your good Spirit to instruct them and did not withhold your manna from their mouth and gave them water for their thirst. Nevertheless, they were disobedient and rebelled against you and cast your law behind their back and killed your prophets, who had warned them in order to turn them back to you, and they committed great blasphemies.

Re: The Eagles Just Broke Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ Record
It helps that the Eagles are on tour this summer, and helping out the tour is Glenn Frey's 26 year old son Declan Frey and Vince Gill who has sounds as if he was an original the of the group.
It was a fantastic show, second best of the 9 show that I've seen. I hate to say it but Taylor Swift's show, not the songs but the performance was the best.
I have young kids, so don't kill me on this post.
Went to see:

Logic
Whitesnake-Foreigner
Jimmy Buffett
Eagles
Chicago-Reo Speedwagon
Taylor Swift
Justin Timberlake
Dropkick Murphy
Rascal Flatts

Going to Lynard Skynard on Saturday
Maroon 5
Andre Bocelli
Metallica and Elton John before the year ends.

I would normally spend my money on seeing baseball but the Pirates didn't invest in their team, so I spend my money on very cheap seats to see live shows.

Im sure was amazing. Concerts are really fun.

The only problem I have with it, is these bands tour with an act.

Meaning they play the same songs every show the same way with the same lights.

It makes money, but makes it impossible to see them in other cities without seeing the exact same act.

Thats what made MJ so awesome. Always a different concert.

Concerts were so different back in the day...wild west where anything goes and of course back then the musicians actually had to play, had to be "on" and...here's the kicker...they COULD be ON because they were still young and full of natural talent.

Now it's a soul-less machine. Most concerts look and sound like the Robots at Chuck E Cheese and the acts you really want to see are 64-71 years old and can't do it anymore, but we all have to pretend they're killing it while we give them hundreds of dollars.

Im a HUGE Phish fan.

Most people dont even know who they are.

They are a Rock n Roll Quartet that specializes in funk, tension n release, and improvisation.

They are most well known for playing unpredictable shows.

Last year they played 13 shows at Madison Square Garden in 18 days.

And not one song was repeated

I'll see anybody once. I appreciate the work that goes into a show and the music behind it.
I'd prefer to see a live stage show versus seeing a movie. Here in Pittsburgh, the CLO offers a summer package where you can get a season package for under 100.00 per seat and they are great shows. Beauty and Beast was the last show I saw two weeks ago.
For high school and Pitt Football games, I always stay during halftime for the band. I love music, never played myself but appreciate the effort these musicians put into it.

I've never seen the Doobie Brothers. They are coming to Pittsburgh in November with Steely Dan but tickets range from 95 to 135- way out of my range.
Would be a good show though.
