The Eagles are touring for the last time. Again.
The band recently announced that after more than 50 years of touring their upcoming “The Long Goodbye” tour will be their last.
“Our long run has lasted far longer than any of us ever dreamed. But, everything has its time, and the time has come for us to close the circle.” the band said in an emotional statement.

Their tour will feature core Eagles members Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit, along with Vince Gill and Deacon Frey (son of the late Glenn Frey, an original Eagle) and it will open at Madison Square Garden on Sept. 7.
They've announced 13 American dates so far, with Steely Dan as their support act.
In their announcement, the band also noted the long, and at times challenging, journey since they formed in 1972.
“The Eagles have had a miraculous 52-year odyssey, performing for people all over the globe; keeping the music alive in the face of tragic losses, upheavals and setbacks of many kinds,” they said, adding thanks to their management team, road crew and backup musicians.
