I dunno about a fake eagles and yes in mid 70's. I think people would
have been too aware by then. I did see the famous Fake Fleetwood Mac. My
pal Robbie Blunt was playing with Silverhead, who opened. They clued me
in and said we better get out of here just after "FM" started. At the
end of the first song, people we yelling "who are you?". I heard that
before too long, most of the audience got up and asked for their money back!

All this, of course, because promoters could have the band play in two places at the same time. Again, this would have been in the mid to late 70s. In fact, I remember a big concert at Balboa Stadium that I did not attend but the rumours were that Yes and the Eagles were actually fake, imposter bands playing and that this was common during that time..anyone remember this or am I suffering from too many espressos in Argie
