The Eagles announce 2023 tour dates for their ‘The Long Goodbye’ farewell concerts
New York is the starting point for the iconic band, as it travels around venues to see fans for the final time.
“We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible before we call it quits,” was the message from the group. “Most importantly, we sincerely thank you for embracing this band and its music wholeheartedly.”
Where are The Eagles touring?
After more than half a century of making history in the music industry with songs like ‘Hotel California’, the rock band Eagles announced on Thursday a farewell tour that will kick off on September 7th at Madison Square Garden in New York. The group unveiled 13 initial dates and assured fans that they would “perform as many concerts in each market as demanded by their audience,” hinting that the tour will continue until 2025.
“In a miraculous 52-year journey, the Eagles have performed for all kinds of audiences around the world. Our long-lasting career has surpassed any of our wildest dreams. But everything has its time, and the moment has come for us to close the circle.”
Esteemed veterans of rock music like Steely Dan will join Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit, along with Vince Gill and Deacon Frey, son of one of the founding members Glenn Frey, for their final tour, aptly named ‘The Long Goodbye’, as stated in the announcement. The band, which has sold over 150 million records worldwide, boasts six Grammys, a Kennedy Center honorary award, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in its first year of eligibility.
“At the end of the day, you are the reason we have been able to persevere for over five decades. This is our swan song, but the music lives on and will continue to do so.”
