* "Sold Out" rarely means "Sold Out".  The first three Eagles concerts did sell all the tickets that went on sale in February 2008, except for a large number that were held back from this period of initial ticket sales.  However, these reserved tickets quietly went on sale on ticketmaster.com starting ~10 days before the concert date, and stayed available leading up to the concert night.  These reserved seats were very good seats - typicially within the first 10 rows of ORCH 1, ORCH 2, or ORCH 3, and even some seats were in PIT.  Ironically, the casual concert-goer that waited until the last few days before the concert to buy Eagles tickets would have likely gotten some of the best seats available at face value, much to the chagrin of everyone who purchased tickets for more (sometimes much more) than face value from resellers.  The fourth Eagles concert never "sold out" - there were always seats available at the rear rows of sections 104 and 105.
