Eagles Announce Big European Tour
The legendary band hits the road May 29 in Moscow, marking their first-ever visit to Russia.
The Evening With The Eagles tour will stop in Germany, the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Belgium, Finland, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy and Scotland.
The group picks up where it left off; The Eagles closed their “Hell Freezes Over” tour with a sold-out European leg in 1996.
The band’s 1994 and 1995 outings count among the top-grossing North American tours of all time with a combined gross of $142.7 million.
Published reports have the Eagles in the studio working on a new album this summer, but it’s also assumed a North American tour is in the offing sometime this year.
Drummer/singer Don Henley has been talking up a new Eagles record and tour since launching his own solo outing last year, and it appears the rest of the band is backing up his prediction – with one exception.
Henley and bandmate Glenn Frey announced the dismissal in February of guitarist Don Felder, who is suing the pair for wrongful termination. It hasn’t yet been announced who, if anyone, will replace Felder in the touring lineup.
