IT was in the summer of ’96, the morning after Phil Aldridge had watched The Eagles’ final concert and with the “awful” thought that his favourite band had gone for good, that the thought slowly dawned on him that he should form a tribute group.

And the Illegal Eagles are one of the best, according to their many fans.

People will have the opportunity to decide for themselves on Saturday, when the band appears at the City Hall, performing all the classic hits including Hotel California, Heart of the Matter, Life in the Fast Lane, and Tequila Sunrise.
