Seems like the "final tour" of The Eagles has been happening since the 1994 "Hell Freezes Over" tour.

So long as aging baby boomers put up the big bucks for tickets, they are going to wheel these guys out in wheelchairs to play "Take It Easy" one more time!

Hopefully this frees up Walsh to do more stuff. My loathing of the Eagles is made stronger by how much they distract him from his solo, which I mostly love.

Saw them in Austin this past year - fantastic. About 3 hours of just the Eagles - no warm up band,

I grabbed a bootleg of one of these concerts to hear how it sounded minus Glenn. And yeah, it was as I expected. It sounds like the Eagles with Vince. Nope! Saw them live with the whole band, no need to see this tribute band version.

The Eagles are old buzzards by now.

If Glenn Frey isn’t there, it ain’t The Eagles.

I saw them at the bicentennial concert, July 4 1976, at Tampa Stadium. Loggins and Messina, Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles. The Eagles were on their Hotel California tour. I also saw them the next year in Orlando at the Tangerine Bowl. They were with Hall and Oates and Jimmy Buffett. Don’t want to deal with the crowds again.

I saw them a couple years ago with Vince Gill doing most of the Glen Frey parts. Glen’s son did some as well. Chris Stapleton opened. I enjoyed it, especially since the tickets were free.

"Trying to Get to You"--the only Eagles song to be covered by Elvis Presley--and in my opinion, it's one of Elvis' better songs.

The Eagles' Version

Elvis Presley's version
