Canada Movie Reviews of The Eagles - Farewell 1 Tour - Live From MelbourneMovie Review: Fabulous!I've had the chance now to watch the DVD twice and I am just so impressed that after all these years, the Eagles are able to put on such an amazing show. You would think that at this point they might just mail it in, but they give an absolutely electric performance. Don Henley is just amazing. His voice is stellar, although his rendition of "Hotel California" seemed just slightly off. Maybe if they had put it earlier in the concert instead of at the end, his voice would have been more fresh. But he hits everything else just right. Glenn Frey is great too. He's sort of the emcee and has a few funny jokes, such as dedicating "Lyin Eyes" to his ex wife, Plaintiff. (Get it?) Although he looks kind of silly dancing while Henley sings "All She Wants to Do is Dance." He and Joe Walsh also seem a bit off during the closing credits in an interview they taped. Walsh seems kind of out of it and Frey can't stop his giggles. I also gained new appreciation for Timothy B. Schmit. People rag on him all the time that he's not a "real" Eagle and not as good as Randy Meisner, but I think he definitely holds his own. "Love Will Keep Us Alive" is such a beautiful song. And no Don Felder - who cares! If you like the Eagles, you will LOVE this DVD. |
