Should've quit while you were a head.

That would've been about 9,000 posts ago in reality..

Heh.  No, I didn't realize I quoted when ticket sales would go on sale and then took a guess.  The good news is my guess wasn't too far off. Thanks for correcting me, dear.  [B)]

Not that the Eagles are a bad choice, but it's not seem all that thrilling to me. Honestly, if you want to demonstrate how Tulsa is modernizing itself, the Eagles don't seem to be the ticket (no pun intended).

Tulsa World is reporting on their website it is indeed the Eagles.

I hear it's the Eagles -- the TW said they found it on the Eagles web site. []

I know a friend, who is a friend of second-cousin, who is aunt of a niece, who is married to a man, who said that it is the Eagles.

Take it for what it's worth... []

Look on the bright side, at least there will be pot smoking at the first major concert.  Never seems like a "big" concert without the a nice waft of pot over the crowd for some reason.  I prefer to be sober and lucid at shows, but that's just me (paid $$$ for some tickets before, don't remember the show, lesson: no point getting messed up at a paid event).

Or are the Eagles fans now too old to smoke pot?  I suppose most of the old school hippie Eagle fans are too poor.  The yuppy ones probably don't smoke any more.  Wow, I just don't know.  If anyone goes, fill me in on this interesting paradigm.  Otherwise, the shows appear to be fairly tame (not that some smot poking Eagles fans will be trouble makers).

Wait, this is a "no smoking" facility.   [8D]

Seriously, one of the weirdest posters on TU board, with no taste for anything (believes Captain D's is the best place to eat in Tulsa), talked about how great the Eagles are live.  That's like getting an endorsement from Michael Brown.  You'll have some folks wearing Chico's at this one . . . so, so lame.

Can't they have a follow-up show with a band that is actually still creative the next night -- a sort of "cleansing" of the lameness?

This is like going to your first party in college with your parents.

It' may not be that bad.  The Eagles are a pretty big deal.  Have the eagles even played in OK before?

[sgrizzle]

They played the Ford Center after they opened and the Zoo Amphitheater in the last year or two.

For those of you who receive the BOK Center Insider emails (kind of pointless since the word is always leaked in advance) receive 3 emails this morning about the Eagles concert?? I didn't know if it was just me that was lucky enough to receive the overkill in email. I have never had the problem before. They must have been so excited when they sent the email...

[sgrizzle]

I only got it once.
