The Eagles are hitting the road one last time. The band announced its farewell tour, The Long Goodbye, July 6 with tickets going on sale July 14.
After 52 years, over 150 million albums sold and more than a thousand concerts,The band announced July 6 its upcoming tour, The Long Goodbye, will be the last. Originally formed in 1971, the band won six Grammys and had five No. 1 singles and six No. 1 albums, making it one of the most successful acts of the 1970s.
When the band broke up in 1980, Henley embarked on a solo career, releasing his first solo album,"I Can Stand Still," in August 1982. The album featured Henley's best-selling solo hit,"Dirty Laundry," which reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, became gold-certified and earned him a Grammy nomination.
As a founding member of the Eagles, Glenn Frey also sang lead and background vocals, as well as playing the keyboards and lead guitar. He provided the vocals for many of the band's most famous songs, such as"Take It Easy,""Peaceful Easy Feeling,""Tequila Sunrise" and"Heartache Tonight." Frey provided original music for many films, including"Beverly Hills Cop,""Ghostbusters II" and"Thelma & Louise."
While he was primarily the band's bassist, he also wrote and sang lead on many of the band's most popular songs, including"Take It to the Limit" off the band's fourth album and the band's most successful single up to that point. He also wrote and sang lead on"Try and Love Again,""Certain Kind of Fool" and"Take the Devil."
"Those last days on the road were the worst. Nobody was talking to me or would hang out after shows or do anything," Meisner recounted."I was made an outcast of the band I'd helped start." Meisner reunited with the Eagles when the band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.In 2013, he was rushed to a hospital after losing consciousness when a piece of food got stuck in his throat, landing him in a coma. In 2015, he was put under a temporary conservatorship when his friend accused his wife of taking advantage of his drug and alcohol dependency, although it didn't last long.
His decision to leave came after he poured a beer over Glenn Frey's head when things got heated during a band meeting in 1975, although that incident wasn't his main reason. He told Rock History Music in September 2019 he regrets the incident. And when he was in recovery for alcoholism he realized he had to make amends, which he was able to do years later.
The Eagles rest in a desert valley in March 1972. L-R: Bernie Leadon, Don Henley, Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner. Prior to joining the band, Walsh had already released a solo album,"So What," which featured"Song for Emma," which he wrote for his daughter who died a 3 years old. He then released the live album,"You Can't Argue with a Sick Mind," which was recorded just before he joined the Eagles but wasn't released until 1976.
Walsh reunited with The Eagles in 1994 with the album,"Hell Freezes Over," and its corresponding tour. He has performed with them ever since.
