I loved this. Not seen them before, although I love The Eagles music, and was pretty blown away. The band were personable, interesting and had great voices and harmonies. I will definitely be booking to see them again next year. The only downside was the heat! It was stifling in the Assembly Halls - nothing to do with the band, just the weather we are having. However, the band must have been really hot too, but they still delivered an excellent performance. True professionals.

Absolutely amazing. To see these talented musicians yet again smashing out of the park every Eagles number, including the phenomenal Last Resort, from the Hotel California album. As an added bonus, the group was backed by the 12 piece string section from the Royal Northern College of Music. The sound of a string section rather than synthesised backing made the whole concert perfection. The string section was conducted by the band's producer and founder Phil Aldridge. What a night! Thank you!

My first concert with the Illegal Eagles, heard many, many terrific reports from friends, I wasn't disappointed at all! An absolutely brilliant show, wonderful performances (solo and collectively) from the group and a first class venue. Having been a fan of Eagles music for over 40 years, in my opinion this is the closest you will ever get to hearing their unique sound that still resonates today and so authentically recreated. I intend to see them again when they return to Newcastle later this year. Thank you IE for your dedication and commitment to recreating the unique sound of the Eagles.

I have seen the Illegal Eagles many times and each time they have been good and would recommend anyone to attend one of their concerts. Great music and harmony's as usual with this band. I personally found the first half of the session the mixing sounded odd almost off key or out of tune when some guitars played with each other. The second half was so much better and everything was back in tune with each other, great music, how it should be.

I was lucky enough to see the real Eagles at Wembley so when I got the tickets to see the illegal Eagles I thoughts they have very big boots to fill. WOW there are literally the real deal from the way they are chilling when playing not running around trying to look cool, they are above cool. We was in the front row especially for our daughter who thinks Trevor is amazing he was kind enough to walk over mid song and say hi and gave her his guitar pic fab guys. If you close your eyes and listen to them you wouldn't know the difference. This was the second time of seeing them first time was at the barn in Ringwood where we had an amazing time so much so my 11yr old daughter wants us to visit everyone of there shows. And it feels great watching her sing along to most of the songs.

This was just my second time of seeing this incredicle band of musicians and singers .. and they never fail to blow me away with their talent and commitment to keeping faith to the originals. All the usual hits that you'd expect from the massive back catalogue but some tasty showcasing of some of the excellent Deperado album that this tour is named after. If you haven't seen them for yourself yet, grab yourself a ticket .. because you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely brilliant band, we were slightly apprehensive before we went, how wrong we were, they were absolutely amazing both vocally and the guitarists were absolutely spot on, couldn’t believe that anyone could make hotel California sound exactly like the Eagles and the guitarist who played the solo part was astounding, When the opening piano notes started for desperado l though oh no, nobody else can sing this song, once again I was wrong, the lead singer absolutely nailed it, Suffice to say I would 100% book to see them again and if you are an Eagles fan it’s an absolute treat

Excellent musicians faithfully recreating Eagles classics. The band built a great rapport with the audience. The was one downside. Because the Eagles didn't write enough well know songs to fill a two hour show there were a lot of songs which were not familiar. In particular the Illegal Eagles played Hotel California for the encore ( which went down very well ) and then played another song, which none of the friends I was with had ever heard of, as the last song of the show. This was bit of an anticlimax. There is no easy answer to this problem but the song selection and running order needs careful thought. If you are a h******e Eagles fan with every song they recorded this issue won't be a problem. I'm going to see the whats left of the original Eagles next month. I note that they have solved this problem by having a support act.

I'm not one for 'tribute' acts as such, I prefer the originals but having read all their rave reviews and seen them on Youtube, I thought I'd take the plunge tonight to see the five-piece Illegal Eagles. I have to say they are exceptional. (And as a neutral music writer I don't give praise easily, but then again the late great DJ Johnny Walker rated them so that's saying something). Having seen the 'real' Eagles in action, they are a very, very close second and their presentation is effortless. From the start it's clear that each member is talented and experienced musician. Everything's spot on from the appropriate acoustics and stunning harmonising to the format and pace of the show, and as for the guys' collective guitarmanship, wow. I was lucky enough to be sat near the front and their sound was flawless from start to finish. Put it this way, I'm now looking to book to see them again asap. Their 2025 tour is really extensive so chances are they should be appearing at a venue near you. If you rate the Eagles give these guys a go. Top class.

Had front row seats for this show with my mum and my bestie; it was a treat for my birthday. Absolutely amazing show as always, and being so close was wonderful, we could even smell Mike’s delicious aftershave! At the end of the show Mike gave me his Hotel California plectrum. Dream come true! These guys are so good, all five of them are fantastic, seriously talented musicians and they really do The Eagles proud. I’m hooked and have seen them many times now with many more booked. Go and see them, you won’t regret it.

Lovely venue, easy to find by public transport as well as independent travel. The band were fab, as they have been each time I have seen them. Line up included a medical substitute which changed the vocal sound but did not detract from the fantastic music. For me the overall sound was a little light on the vocals making the words more indistinct than at other venues………….could be the acoustics of the Forum. We still had a great night and will come to see the next concert in our area for sure. Loved it.

I took my two teenage grandchildren, they both enjoyed the show and were singing along to many of the songs. As usual the level of musicianship and attention to detail was outstanding. a thoroughly enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend this tribute band to any Eagles fan. My evening was complete when the band closed the show with my favourite Eagles song The Last Resort. The Alhambra is a great venue, and stages a great range of entertainment.

Second time to see the band and they were just as fantastic as the first time. All excellent musicians and superb vocals and harmonies. Definitely better than the originals now (who I saw last year). My only very small gripe is that I didn’t like The Last Resort as the encore, it’s not a favorite of mine and I preferred last year when they used Hotel California. I think for those not over familiar with the Eagles back catalogue, HC is a better and more recognisable finale. I was also disappointed that Best of my Love didn’t make it into the setlist as that one is a favourite. I appreciate though, that the band members like to mix the set list up so fair enough, it won’t stop me booking for next year

I think this was the eighth time I've seen The Illegal Eagles over the last ten years. And what a band they are. This time I was sitting next to someone who hadn't seen them before. What struck her most was that all four guitarists were also lead vocals. To me, it matters less how 'accurate' the sound is. It's amazing, of course, it's much more the feel of the concert, and the mixture of huge hits and band favourites. I always melt for The Last Resort. What a finish. Thanks again guys!!

What a concert. Seen these guys 3 times now and each time I enjoy them more than the one previously. All great musicians Mike can certainly play the guitar and last night on the piano he was fantastic. Met Mike last time outside with my wife and her friend talked and allowed me to take pictures. All these guys are fantastic they are not a tribute band they just appreciate good music from 70s and 80s and close your eyes and they are the Egales. May the play forever.

Was at the last Eagles UK concert in Hyde Park London last year. What a fantastic band, loved them when I was young and this was the first time watching them live. Last night I watched a UK Eagles tribute band called The Illegal Eagles in Cornwall Uk where I live. Wow! A super top tribute to the real Eagles. Vocals and instrumental were spot on. Booked again to see them in Cheltenham UK in November. Brings back my younger days, Lovin it 👏👏👏

I had heard this band was was good but they surpassed all my expectations . Brilliant musicianship and with a twist to some songs with a two piece brass section They covered most of the Eagles classics with a couple of rarities and most of the Eagles members solo works .They also indulged themselves with some light hearted banter with the audience I would recommend this band for a highly enjoyable night out -I shall certainly be looking at the tour dates for another chance to see them again as soon as possible .

Guildford venue was convenient. Great bldg. Clean and bright. Felt spacious which is good since we are both oldies and still covid aware! We have seen the illegal eagles before so knew exactly what we could expect....and we were not disappointed!! They were spectacular!! The music was wonderful. I especially love the stories they tell. We took some friends who had not seen them previously. They loved it too. GREAT EVENING! Thank you boys x 20:20

This was the fourth time we had seen the illegal eagles at the Grand theatre and they certainly dident let the audience down, a perfect set list with trevor explaining about the origins of the songs and witty little story's, the second set built up to the climex of hotel california to finish the night off and for us this was possibly one pf the best shows ive seen by them, loved the added musical backing tracks too, a fantastic night and looking forward to a return show next year already.
