||| FROM COLLEEN SMITH SUMMERS for ORCAS CENTER |||


While the Eagles may have the record for the #1 and #3 selling albums of all-time, hundreds of millions of people have never seen them play live. A big reason for that is that they quit touring for almost 14 years.

Victims of Love — A Tribute to the Eagles — is composed of five Seattle-area music veterans  who formed a project to give anyone within earshot the chance to hear the Eagles’ songs they love performed live. The group is coming to Orcas Center on Saturday, Feb. 7 at 7 p.m.

Did you know that Don Felder recorded 16 different guitar tracks on Hotel California with seven playing at the same time at one point in the song? It’s amazing to see how the band performed that one live with just three guitar players.

Victims of Love dedicates itself to the perfect re-creation of the 5-part harmonies and intrinsic instrumentation and guitar work from the Eagles' best-selling albums. Don’t let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy — come out and catch a Victims of Love show to enjoy all your favorite Eagles songs performed live.

Tickets range in price from $10-$70, with a special $10 price for students. Purchase tickets online at www.OrcasCenter.org, over the phone at 360-376-2281 x 1, or in-person Tuesday – Friday 11am-2pm, and an hour prior to showtime. And don’t forget, volunteers who help with iPad check-in get to see the show for free!
