[@Terri6868]

Suggest Rocky Mountain Way by Joe Walsh. The guitarist for the Eagles.

[@davidleatherneck]

LOLLOL!! I see you have a glass of Pink Lemonade!!! HaHahaha.

[@LegionOfShrooms]

SuperTramp Long way Home or Good bye Stranger.

[@joen4296]

Lynyrd Skynyrd-Freebird,live at the Oakland Coliseum

[@RobGamesOn]

For more Eagles, react to Heartache Tonight, Desperado, Victim of Love, The Long Run, Those Shoes, Life in the Fast Lane, Witchy Woman, Already Gone, etc...

[@marlew6629]

do not stop a song in the middle of a legendary guitar solo. nothing you say is more important than that solo

[@sbtoolman12123]

We can let him slide he is not aware of the "never talk during the solo" rule. That being said...i did get angry when he paused it, it actually caused me pain. But we have to understand he is not aware of the unwritten rule.

[@billyshears6622]

🤣

[@Frau44]

LEGENDARY!!!! I wonder, if stopping during a solo, why not start the solo over?

[@eumaeus]

nothing in the world, ever, is more important than hearing this solo without interruption. it's sacrilege. heck, if it's playing on the radio and I arrive home, I'll drive around until it's finished.

[@BLU3CrossF1r3]

🤣😂

[@Hefher]

These are REAL musicians ! NO auto tune ! No computer enhancements ! REAL MUSICIANS !!! REAL GREAT ROCK !!!

[@SharonS-fn2ym]

Don Felder and Joe Walsh’s guitar duo is legendary. 2 of the greatest of all time.

[@johnemmerich7075]

Double neck guitar...upper neck is 12 string and lower is 6 string. I was at this concert. It's in Largo / Landover MD right outside of DC . Saw many concerts there

[@relaxbecalm5574]

Been there many times

[@room22-1]

It's a Gibson

[@dillodefense]

I was at that concert, too! Small world. They were amazing.

[@immortalserito774]

@@johnemmerich7075 best wishes. How awesome was 'Take it to the Limit" when Randy hit that high note!? Saw Billy Joel at Cap Centre, really was a great venue, wish I saw more.

[@nikhil3874]

It is an Epiphone double neck guitar

[@oscarbarahona9921]

Don't ever pause the solo again. Or you can go to jail for doing that

[@ruego-qj7bt]

It's _his_ 'reaction' not yours.

[@kristenwestlund5802]

Funny story....in my English class in 1980, my teacher asked us to submit a poem, short story or song that was an allegory...I turned in Hotel California and recieved an A+

[@sherryarflin726]

The intro and outro guitar work at the beginning and end of this between Don Felder (on the dual neck) and Joe Walsh with his signature bandana was pure brilliance.....EPIC !!!!

[@patriciaellis4848]

DO NOT EVER interrupt a song during a guitar solo.

[@Samonomics]

yup! ruins the impact of feeling the music. there's always a natural stopping point in a song to give your reaction to, like the end of a verse/chorus.

[@danh966]

Never, ever, ever interrupt a guitar solo!!!

[@Hexenmeister77]

I’m throwing the flag. Please do not interrupt great guitar solos!

[@ruego-qj7bt]

It's _his_ 'reaction' not yours.

[@barry4159]

Those of us old enough to have lived through that era have fond memories! So many great bands recorded songs that still resonate today.

[@erickjohnson2138]

Definitely the wrong spot to start your comments, right in the middle of an iconic duo on guitar. You really should have held back.

[@sgbsammy]

cant beleve you stopped in in the begining of the solo..lol and at the end...lol

[@celticpoet21]

Awesome! Another amazing group! Lying eyes, desperado, Take it to the limit, and love will keep us alive are some other phenomenal Eagles songs!

[@TheMike_I]

this won the Grammy for Record Of The Year 1977

[@kwb200]

Love the eagles I'm only 23. But thank God my parents grew up in the 70s and that's all the music I heard but there's two songs that always stood out to me apart from hotel. But I'm a Glenn Frey(fry) fan RIP. But the two songs are lyin eyes and peaceful easy feeling that's classic early eagles. THE SONG isn't about a hotel it's about the bad things fame can give if you go to California to chase your dreams. Drugs. And excess and failure and being stuck depressed and broke. Nothing about a hotel it's a metaphor. About LA is the beast that you can't kill

[@davidleatherneck]

Well, actually, the was a Hotel California in San Diego back then.

[@gordoncanepa4772]

@@davidleatherneck Yes but that had nothing to do with the song

[@mj95b]

DH& I took great care of our kid's "Rock and Roll education". I was proud ( I did not say this to my son) when my granddaughter got in trouble for listening to music in class. The teacher asked her what was so important that she just HAD to listen to during class. She demanded that my granddaughter play the song for the whole class. Out came Meat Loaf singing "Paradise by the Dashboard Light". Whoops, just a little inappropriate for the classroom - I think she was 11. I was proud nonetheless.

[@barry4159]

Well said.

[@rosamorales5282]

I love that u appreciate the talent. It may not be your style but you recognize what it is after 50 years and they're still performing. Awesome sauce 👌

[@clare1061]

You cut it to talk when Joe Walsh started jamming. omg that’s definitely criminal.

[@carollittle1059]

The guitars, the harmonies and they wrote all their hits.

[@philipholmes158]

U got an "old soul". I love it! Don't stop doing what u do, and thank you.

[@sherryheim5504]

This is an outstanding and iconic song, right up there with Bohemian Rhapsody and Stairway To Heaven. I remember hearing it when it first came out and being stunned by its depth, it is all that anybody was talking about for weeks. Joe Walsh is one of my favorite guitar players and I was so happy when he joined the Eagles band. He really tears it up on this performance along with the entire rest of the band.

[@Xcris_crosX]

Uhm... you're never going to hit the number of subscribers you want by stopping in the middle of an iconic solo so you can make a lengthy comment, no matter how profound you say it

[@timothe8962]

2 years late, but what a weird comment, it's his reaction. "never stop during a guitar solo" is the most cringe shit to exist.

[@rigs6874]

All play, all sing, all write lyrics, write the music.. met Linda Ronstadt and Jackson browne, they all lived in the same apartments!!❤ TALENT found TALENT

[@zzz987654321]

that guitar is a Gibson SG Double neck Guitar- top neck is a 12 string guitar - bottom neck is a 6 string guitar normally the top neck is for playing rhythm and the bottom for lead guitar but you can do it any way you want.

[@annheckenbach9396]

Hotel California is about the decadence of the times, and in another way, about the decadence of being a rock star. Can't believe you stopped in the middle of one of the most famous guitar duets in rock and roll history to talk. You haven't even noticed there are two guitars playing...

[@janicelucas8561]

I saw them in Alabama, in 1977/1978. 21,000 lighter lit up on 1st song, Hotel California!! Best concert EVER!! Eagles ROCK!! 77 now, still get chills/tears from them!! Rock On!!

[@jeffcamp481]

You just watched a guitar duo not a solo! The best in history!

[@horstschafer1839]

Never stop the best Guitar- Duet of all time, you . I will still give you a like, but promise me, you won't do this again...... forget it, you broke three times!!! What's up with you??? You're a cool guy, but stop Breaking Solos!!! 😉

[@antonioeasypiano]

HC is so great that even my piano cover sounds good! 😊 Congrats for bringing it!! 👍👍

[@corinasizemore2162]

Had the privilege of seeing these guys in 95...best concert of my lifetime...

[@kurthealey6936]

You stopped the vid at the beginning of the duet to drone on about where in a song the guitar solo is placed. Then interrupted it again to ask about the double neck... Epically bad timing!!!! He SWINGS... He misses.... Game over!!!

[@pattymesagal2654]

if you lived in california in the 70's you understoood this song was about the greed, the drugs, and trying to get out of it with no relief in sight

[@65presleychick]

DUDE! Never never ever interrupt the Hotel California guitar duel. You did it twice. Ruined the whole reaction for me.

[@Jellyfinger6969]

Best guitar solo duet ever!!!

[@solitarybee3714]

Except for the interruptions, of course...

[@dlmullins9054]

Man how can he be lead singer and play drums at the same time like that? I can't play guitar and sing!

[@janpulliambracey1732]

Oh how wonderful all those great bands were.

[@JValencia-u3m]

crazy that this is ya first time hearing this song cause I've heard it thousands of times in my life

[@ratowey]

Great reaction, Eagles are a great band and incredible live. I wanted to be among the first to tell you of the big news today. Abba have reformed and a new album is coming out. Back to the video, the guitar is a Gibson EDS1275 double neck.

[@Fitzythird]

Young man, what a great take on this song sir. Your insights on the song throughout, are welcomed and perhaps perfect! I'm glad my kids also get it...Eagles were my first show at Boston Garden at age 14, and you just gave me a perspective I likely had back then. Well done! Keep Going!

[@lorinwold6473]

The Capital Centre is in Maryland just outside of Washington DC. In my mind there are 3 great guitar outros in rock and roll history and this is definitely one of them.

[@williammiles2221]

Masterpiece!! One of the best songs ever written!! Thank you for this! Awesome reaction!

[@jerickson725]

They have so many great songs, but I would suggest Lyin' Eyes; it's one of my favorites.

[@Tom_McMurtry]

Peaceful Easy Feeling Take it Easy

[@bianca952000]

LOL You have very good taste in music 🎶 New sub Keep 'em coming 🤘

[@eaglesfan0726]

The guitar that Don Fedler is playing is called a double Neck Guitar

[@Hodjum]

Yes, or a twin neck

[@fastecp1]

Regarding album sales in the United States, this Eagles' collection of favorites and timeless classics remains No. 1. Spanning the Eagles' first four studio albums, it was the first to receive platinum status by the RIAA. The record also spent more than 230 weeks on the Billboard 200. Nope, the Capitol Center was in Landover, Maryland, about 20 minutes from where I live; at least, it was 22 years ago. Gone now.

[@terryduncan31]

Groups back in the day rehearsed a lot so they could get their sound on point. No computer help back then.

[@anniegoodrich262]

"Heartbreak Hotel" was originally sung by Elvis Presley. That is one old timey classic.

[@tammypearson989]

Man this solo alone is legendary!😊

[@bastiandelpiero434]

Capital Centre was here in DC if i’m not mistaken, but it was demolished, i went to a couple Concerts there

[@scoobysnacks]

That's how you do a live performance. It's indistinguishable from the recording.

[@bryanirvine6169]

Not true. The guitar solo, notably the ending sequence, was NOT on the studio version. And the live version is better.

[@mikefetterman6782]

This song is a metaphor for losing one's innocence. Nothing more.

[@sherryheim5504]

Most Eagles videos are blocked but for some reason this one and one other live video I have seen have not been blocked. Capitol Center is in Maryland. I have read that the Hotel California is a metaphor for the corporate music machine where they wine you and dine you and then grind every bit of your soul out of you and still want more, they will even ply you with alcohol or drugs to get what they want from you. You are signed to a contract so you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave (they own you). There are many people trying to decide what the words of this song mean but the writers have never really said. It is called a double necked guitar. Sometimes a six string and a 12 string sometimes a differently tuned guitar.

[@evanhughes1510]

Songs by theEagles are very underrepresented in KZbin reactions, partly because so many of their songs are blocked when you try to search them on KZbin, and as a result, the Eagles many hit songs are being forgotten about and not being rediscovered by the younger generations/KZbin reactors

[@beachem1]

One of the more intelligent reactions to Hotel California I’ve seen. Keep up the great work 🎸🎸

[@shilohauraable]

I met Joe Walsh (guitar 🎸 player here) once & he told me this was actually about the music industry/fame, but it can also be related to any addiction.

[@timflaherty8389]

Capital Center was in Landover Maryland about 20 minutes from Washington DC. It was blown up about 15 years ago to make the way for Office Buildings. I have seen many Concerts at the Capital Center.

[@tekay44]

it's a combo 6 string and 12 string. just a melding of two guitars, pretty cool.

[@vickiroman189]

Saw them, Linda Ronstadt and Dan Fogelberg at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in 1978. We left early to beat the leaving crowd and missed Jackson Browne. Damn.

[@jameshowland7393]

Double Neck guitar. 12 string on top and 6 string below. They each have their own output jack, so it's actually two separate guitars on one body.

[@KatieBeeTV]

You got a subscriber. I had liked it because your first reactions were good but then when you talked about hotels and artists, I went to like and already had done so. Good sign to sub

[@LegionOfShrooms]

Some of these reaction videos makes me wonder how have you never heard that song before!

[@alankoemel3168]

Don Henley is from Linden, Texas.

[@alhampton1211]

Realize the Hotel is actually an old adobe mission (sort of like the Alamo), that kind of appeared from out of no where…from off in the distance. The title of the video has the words “Hotel California” all out of focus, then gets clearer(as his car gets closer, and closer). When she greets him at the door, he says “heard the mission bell,”………….and then, “This could be Heaven or this could be Hell.”

[@Gordon-r4h]

The Beast is in that Bottle ..an when you interrupt a .. SOLO of EPIC .. PROPORTIONS LIKE NO OTHER DUDE ... YOU REWIND THE fn thing an then sthu. cheers ..

[@terrimobley6067]

As someone who grew up in the seventies can tell you right now that they played this song to death. By the time we got to 19 79 we were ready to stab the beast named Eagles.. they sang SO MANY great songs... The radios wore this one OUT!! I can listen to it now but really for the guitar with Joe Walsh and Don Felder At the end....

[@mindyalderman8865]

the eagles have always protected there content. this song was never comercialized.

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

I’ve just always called it a double neck guitar that Don Felder is playing. Not sure if that’s the appropriate term.

[@johnckelly88]

It's a double neck Gibson SG. Top neck is a 12 string ant the bottom neck is a six string.

[@clare1061]

Check out a song called “get over it” it was written in the 90s and fits perfect with what’s going on today.

[@sharonstark1014]

I was at that concert. It was incredible!!

[@TexasMagnolia]

Katy, Tx say Hey and Thank You! Eagles live performances are the key.

[@jamesguess2228]

Dudes can flat out play them guitars!!

[@lorijohnston4311]

You stopped during the guitar solos???

[@504CreoleCrystal]

My favorite song ever!

[@Joseph-wy2mq]

Good thing you shouted "guitar solo" during the guitar solo. Otherwise, we would have not known it was a guitar solo.

[@leebowens2631]

Pick up an instrument and learn to play is what I did 2 years before this song hit the charts, eventually learning the solo note for note on my 1965 Fender strat.

[@lindadavis2257]

It's about the state of California and the perception of all it stands for, and the pain that it can give you when reality appears

[@tammypearson989]

This is pure Eagles promise😊

[@darkomtobia]

Eagles - "Seven Bridges Road" Joe Walsh - "Life's Been Good"

[@terryhogan327]

Its just called a double neck, my brother played one. 12 strings and a 6 string on top of each other! No better dueling guitars than this !

[@kathleenlowe3349]

Stevie Nick's from Fleetwood Mac is the female in the song. The mission was a recording studio in the Hollywood Hills. She was the one everyone wanted to work with.

[@billyshears6622]

This song should be played in the delivery room of every birth. How can you never have heard this?

New Kid in Town, Life in the Fast Lane, Those Shoes, Heartache Tonight

[@sherryarflin726]

This song is about speaking out against corruption, greed and hedonism of the music industry in the 70’s. They say it’s metaphorical. Don Henley was even quoted as saying they didn’t literally mean California, it’s all about being consumed by ego, absorbed by pleasure and self-righteousness.

[@JoeInPa-rr6ot]

1 suggestion even if you just listen by yourself, the desperado album was one of the first"concept"albums ever. Every song fills in a whole story.

[@danpals7678]

It has nothing to do with a hotel. It's about how if you get into the music or acting business and sign a contract they own you. "You can check out anytime you want but you can never leave "

[@karenporter977]

Glad you liked the song. The Eagles were so important to my generation. My take on this song is about addiction and how you are trapped in that reality.

[@kenperk9854]

Don Henley said they were once accused of loitering on Stage. I found that funny! 😆

[@Shavian1]

One of the DJs on Sirius radio said Henley has a crew of 30 people working full time to bust people for using anything about the Eagles without his permission. Personally I think he ought to "GET OVER IT." :)

[@espenvippen]

The text is a surreal search for a tired traveler who checks into a luxury hotel. The hotel seems tempting at first, but seems to be a nightmare city where "you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave" (you can check out at any time, but never leave). The song is an allegory of hedonism, self-destruction and greed in the music industry in the late 1970s. Don Henley called it "our interpretation of upper-class life in Los Angeles" and later added: "It is essentially a song about the dark abdomen of the American dream and about extravagant life in America, which is something we know well."

[@jamesguess2228]

Great reaction my friend

[@johnspringer4725]

I think you set a record for number of times to interrupt a guitar solo.

[@lydiabugner6437]

Capital Centre was in Landover, Maryland and was a big performance center that all the big acts played at. Unfortunately it was demolished in 2002.

[@robertwilkins7780]

Are you kidding me?? You stop for 3 reactions in the middle of one of the greatest guitar solos ever?? Bloody Criminal.

[@SharonS-fn2ym]

Most 70’s songs did tell a story and lyrics made sense.

[@danielglenn915]

Witchy Woman, Life in the Fast Lane, Desperado, In the City and Lyin Eyes are songs that show off big differences in their sound.
