105 locals entered to win four tickets to the CCCNews’ Hotel California, A Salute to the Eagles, who are set to hit the stage on Saturday, Sept. 3 at Lewis & Clark Festival Park.
While there could only be one winner, there’s still tickets left at pretty reasonable prices - starting at $15 for adults and $10 for kids, to attend the show. Buy Tickets here.
TD’s own Nolan Hare is bringing this astounding group of musicians to The Dalles with the support of multiple local businesses. Check out our original story here.
Back on August 16, CCCNews started the contest and people could enter merely by selecting their favorite Eagles songs.
Our winner chose the following songs: Desperado, Hotel California, Life in the Fast Lane and Tequila Sunrise.
Hey, what about The Long Run? And Take it Easy? And Peaceful Easy Feeling? - That’s the thing with the Eagles catalog of music - it never disappoints with it’s ability to dive into rock, blues, country and folk.
Now, let’s dive into that winner. TD’s own Celenia Vargas is our winner.
“I never win anything,” she said on Tuesday. “I was driving to get tacos at Mi Pueblito during lunch when you called and I did not even need the tacos after you told me I won.”
Vargas, who is the attendance secretary at Chenowith Elementary said she immediately called Liset Guzman who works at Columbia Gorge Toyota and immediately invited her to join her at the show.
Both have three children and the free tickets are going to provide an awesome break.
And who else are they taking?
Their husbands, of course, Anselmo Hernandez and Rudy Guzman.
It takes a village to bring this kind of talent and performance to The Dalles and Mid-Columbia.

“A spirited blend of originality and the pursuit of excellence have taken Hotel California, “A Salute to the Eagles” to a level of recognition normally reserved for Gold and Platinum recording artists,” according to the band’s press information.
“By respectfully and accurately reproducing the Grammy award-winning sounds of our generation’s Greatest American Songbook, this legendary Southern California group, has touched the hearts of fans all over the world,” it continues. “It is the most successful and longest-running show of it’s kind, and the ONLY show to have ever received “Official Authorization” to perform the Eagles catalog of music.”
Nolan Hare
Nolan Hare, Steve Kane, and Matt Larsen are the push behind the show, which is being heavily supported by local businesses.
“The Eagles have a unique sound,” said Nolan Hare today, Aug. 10. “It is just really relatable to just about anybody,” noting the great storytelling. “And the production on this tribute band's sound, lights, and video is top notch. It’s the whole thing. It’s the whole experience.”
With a vast catalog of songs that includes Wasted Time, I Can’t Tell You Why, Peaceful Easy Feeling, Desperado, One of These Nights, Lyin’ Eyes, it is easy to see how The Eagles were able to catapult to one of the most successful bands in history in the ‘70s and ‘80s.
And it is from this incredible well of music that Hotel California drinks and rekindles the cool evening California dessert magic that makes time disappear and sends a shiver up your spine like a welcome breeze.
“We are so excited to do another big event since everyone got locked down,” Hare said.
It takes a village to bring this kind of talent and performance to The Dalles and Mid-Columbia.
