Taking it to the limit: Don Henley and Glenn Frey harmonise sweetly
It may be 28 years since their last all-new album and the four members may have gained a few pounds, but it is time for The Eagles to take flight again.
A 2,300-strong audience of competition winners, corporate warriors paying up to £950 per ticket and 20 winners of the band's website ballot, made for what Glenn Frey described as "an intimate evening".
The first four songs (each sung by a different Eagle to soothe those famously squabbling egos) were from the new album.
Guilty Of The Crime was unspeakable pub rock and I Don't Want To Hear Any More was so wet it could solve a sub-Saharan drought.
But How Long and Busy Being Fabulous were exquisite slabs of classic Eagles and, up close, those harmonies were sweeter than ever. Then it was hits all the way.
The drudge of an over-familiar path took its toll, both in Don Henley's struggle to simultaneously drum and sing, and Frey dedicating Lyin' Eyes "to my first wife, Plaintiff".
Mostly though, the songs were so strong and The Eagles so adept at delivering them, that it all made perfect sense.
