Went to an Eagles concert in Charlotte last year - had tons of fun! During Joe Walsh's "Rocky Mountain Way" their massive projected background screen showed an exciting ame of digital "Eagles Pinball".

Only tonight after hearing a great Eagles tribute band (On the Border) did it hit me - would an Eagles Band pinball machine be any good?

If the right songs were incorporated (faster stuff) - I'd say YES it definitely would. Maybe a desert/western-esque theme. Hotel California plastic you you smash?

What do you guys think?

It's absolutely the right demographic. Mostly older white guys with money. Ladies like them too. In fact, I'm not sure I could name another band that would fit that demographic as well. Good call. Getting them all to agree might be tough though. Worth a thought anyway.

Saw them at the Waikiki shell 39 years ago. Jumped the fence. Life in the fast lane, etc.

I like the eagles...would it make a decent pin? Sure, anything could really.

More focus on the new generation themes to attract younger players, is what we really need.

I'm a huge Eagles fan. But a pin that's themed on their music?

Yeah, no go. It would be like a Pink Floyd pin, great band, but not the type of music you want playing in a fast paced pinball machine.

You're right, pink floyd would be very subtle, but maybe that's not a bad thing. On wizard of oz in the left outlane ball save mode, it's very somber.. and it's sort of refreshing in pinball.

I read that if you start DSOTM exactly when you launch your ball, the two remain in sync.

came for the TBL reference, leaving satisfied. I guess you couldn't have these two pins next to each other or there would be problems.

You don't want a "Peaceful, Easy Feeling" multiball?

Love The Eagles. Terrible idea for a pin though. They seriously lack the imagery in their songs or the mystique in their personalities for a creative pin.

Exactly what I was thinking. It might be a good theme for an EM.
