Great performance in Kernersville, NC May 3rd. I've seen "The Eagles" several times through the years and these guys, OTB, do a great tribute. I especially enjoyed the singer doing Joe Walsh songs. Great job from all band members. Hope to see the group again. Thanks for an enjoyable evening!

If I must have a night off, I prefer to spend it seeing a worthwhile band, and tonight I got my preference: Mike Santoro, Bob Orazi, Tracy Maples, and the rest of the On the Border crew reminded me how fortunate I am to know and work with the sickeningly talented people I know and work with. If you want to hear what The Eagles sounded like in their prime, check out this Eagles tribute.

Linda & I went to the Fillmore Saturday night to see On The Border, an Eagles tribute band . The Eagles were a bright spot in the 70's for me. Playing disco for a living was like being sent to hell, and playing Eagle's music made up for that. They are a hard act to do right: lots of high harmonies, lead guitarists that can play separately or in tandem without stepping on each other, and a drummer that sings. On The Border gets a 10 on all aspects. Great players, tight rhythm section, excellent guitar and bass tones, and in-tune singing. They did it all, and did it for a long set. If you're a fan, check these guys out. They made this old guy's jaw drop. To all of you in the band "We loved it".

You mean I have to go on after you guys? You guys sounded so much like the Eagles! Very Impressive!
Jack Blades – Night Ranger
“A good impersonation can be indistinguishable from the real thing, which is why method actors are no longer allowed to play dictators. Although the Eagles have encouraged the world to “Take It Easy” for more than four decades, taking on the roles of the genteel Classic Rockers from Southern California is a tough task. Not just any musician can nail the harmonies of Glenn Frey and Don Henley, or pull off the talk-box guitar solos of Joe Walsh. With dedication, a surplus of musical chops, and a shelf full of papier-mâché Grammys, On the Border: The Ultimate Eagles Tribute pulls it off, treating fans to an authentic concert experience while journeying through The Eagles’ songbook. The band covers every hit, from ballads such as “Desperado” and “Lyin’ Eyes” to rave-ups such as “Life in the Fast Lane” and “Heartache Tonight” with such accuracy, that listeners may permanently confuse On the Border with the real Eagles. It’s truly a masterful sound of witness for yourself.” – Quote, The Fillmore Charlotte
You guys were simply AMAZING! The crowd was blown away & our largest crowd for the Friday night of Fall Fest in 15 years!!
Kristy Detwiler – Pineville, NC Event Director

Hi...I guess this email would be to the band in its entirety. I attended your show Friday night, and yes it is now Saturday am and I'm posting an email, without benefit of sleep...insomnia is the mother of inspiration... and though questionable, there is valid reasoning I assure you. As your following is relatively older, perhaps slightly different than me and generally not posting or sending emails mere hours after your shows, I sincerely hope you read this.
I've seen a thousand cover bands (quite literally), however tonight was truly extraordinary. I am relatively new to the QC area and was invited to your show by a friend (who later advised she had been unwell, therefore we sat in the VIP section) To say neither of us are what one would identify as the 'typical' Eagles fan would be an understatement, however I am an advid admirer of musicality and harmony ...both in sound and band synergy...and as a lover of music I happily agreed. Thank you, because tonight reminded me of sitting in my father's green 71 Ford pick-up, draining the battery and searching for the one familiar song(s) among never ending static. Dirty Laundry and the 'bubble-headed bleach blonde comes on at 5"...and host of other songs before and after were those songs.
I wanted you to know that we...I, truly enjoyed the show and hope to attend other shows in the future. Though post Eagles songs like Don Henley's Sunset Grill literally cripple me, even to this day, I still love classic Eagles' hits performed well. I do fully appreciate and love the nostalgia associated with the Soundtrack of my youth. Please know, girls like me who don't always appear to be the fans of the music you assume we would be, ARE and we greatly appreciate it being portrayed so well. I wish you All the greatest level of success!
Absolutely amazing! Better than the eagles and a great group of guys! Looking forward seeing them again!

My husband and I went to see you guys last night at the Fillmore in Charlotte. It was an awesome show! You guys were great. We will definitely be coming to see you guys more often!
Anita Lamartina – Mooresville, NC
I will have to say that I have seen many bands over the years and by far "On The Border" was spot on the money. Not only the vocals and harmonies but the guitars were amazing!
Joseph –Fan from Charlotte, NC

-Carrie Lynn Cox
5 Part Harmonies with no sampling unlike a lot of other tribute bands! Priceless!!!!!!!!!!!
