Eagles Madness.

[SSG_Schwartz]

Maybe this is too soon, or too late to start another Madness thread, but I will bet there are many Eagles fans on the SDMB. Brackets are randomly named. I will admit, all seeds are my personal bias, but I tried not to match two songs from the same album.
Voting for the first round will conclude 00:00 hrs on 12 Apr.
At that time Hotels will be matched against Heartache and Long will play off against Gone.

I’m fairly sure that I’ll have to skip some pairings - I don’t know every Eagles song. And to get this out of the way : Ol’ 55 is better by Tom Waits
