Seeing what some people have said, it appears they dropped victim of love last night in exchange for the song “Tulsa Time”. I’m sure that’s just a situational song choice but I like that picked a local based song for the audience

Do you have a source for that?

It would be a hoot if Henley sang Tulsa Time but it was probably Vince, since he’s an Okie.

********
Update— I found a source.


Have you heard the Eagles’ hits a jillion times before on the radio? Sure. But it’s still magic to see and hear those songs be recreated live. The set list included a surprise.

“This is something we threw together this afternoon — a little tribute to J.J. Cale,” Henley said before the Eagles performed “Tulsa Time.” Cale, an influential singer and songwriter from Tulsa, died in 2013. As “Tulsa Time” was being sung by Gill, an image of a map of Oklahoma appeared on the screen behind the stage.

“Tulsa Time” was not on Eagles’ set lists prior to the Tulsa tour stop. The song took the place of “Victim of Love,” which appeared on set lists of recent tour stops.

“Eagles at BOK: Deacon Frey pays tribute to dad on Father's Day, Vince Gill enjoys triumphant homecoming” by Jimmie Trammel, Tulsa World, June 18, 2018 (http://www.tulsaworld.com/homepagelatest/eagles-at-bok-deacon-frey-pays-tribute-to-dad-on/article_f94ebaae-1602-5249-b8d9-3807219e2c79.html)

I just have to add this bit about Deacon.

People in the crowd rose to their feet for a heartwarming ovation that lasted more than 30 seconds.

“Thank you for that,” Henley said. “He’s doing his dad proud.”

Frey, who addressed the audience later, said, “This is so much fun for me. I’m having the time of my life. I wouldn’t want to remember my dad any other way than by playing his songs.”

Sorry, duh... my reading comprehension is at nil tonight. Must be time to go to bed.

I wasn’t sure what to expect but their cover of Tulsa Time was pretty good. Joe and Vince tear it up on their guitars.
