Don Felder took command of the stage at Spotlight 29 Casino in Coachella, Calif., carrying his double-neck guitar and started right into his biggest hit, “Hotel California." The adoring audience whooped, hooted and roared their appreciation. Everyone was singing along with Felder. There was a killer guitar duet with Felder and very animated and colorful guitarist Frank Simes, who has backed many of the biggest names in rock ‘n’ roll. The crowd went wild.
