Solid show!
by Led Gypsy on 10/30/24Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino - Las VegasRating: 4 out of 5Don Felder and his very talented band played for 90 minutes at Westgate Theater on Saturday, October 26th, 2024, and it was well worth the price of admission, just as it was last year. My seat was almost identical to last year's show. This was actually a rescheduled date from July due to fire on Interstate 15 which had prevented the band from getting to the venue.
Felder's tributes to both Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner were heartfelt and poignant. The visuals behind the stage were equally memorable. Songs included, among many others, "Those Shoes", "Take It Easy", "Peaceful Easy Feeling", "Seven Bridges Road", "Heavy Metal", "Life In The Fast Lane"and, of course, the seminal "Hotel California".
Don told a funny story about his "meetup"with a guy named Jose (Cuervo) while touring the United States with the Eagles in the 1970s. He was wearing a Mötley Crüe concert T-shirt beneath a black leather coat and with white pants. Don was nice enough to throw several guitar picks into the first few rows at the conclusion of the show, as well as providing to the crowd several copies of the set list.
