Here's an article about the show. I had to use a translation website to translate the article from Swedish to English.
http://bloggar.aftonbladet.se/musikb...m-country-boy/
Quote:
All the Eagles success however Don Henley the innermost part is still a country boy from Texas.
It is when he really goes back to the roots of this show really touch.
After Glenn Frey's death will be no more Eagles, it was Don Henley clear with signalling last winter. So it is now to Henley we may contact us if we wish to hear the prewire Californian classics.
One and the other in the audience has certainly come for the Eagles songs in the evening and we may in fact few, but Henley has also said that he is not interested in becoming a jukebox, so the focus is strongly on his successful 80-century plates and, above all, on illuminating last year turn-up "Cass County".
Where Henley embrace his country roots, the music that shaped him while growing up in Linden, Texas. And on the stage frames he and seven-piece band with pedal steel, fiddle, mandolin and three brilliant choirs shoes - Erica Swindell, Lara Johnston and Lily Elise- which both engages Louvin Brothers old "When I Stop Dreaming" and duets free fill the shoes after Dolly Parton as Martina McBride.
Henley's also the brilliant interpreter of darkness and pain lurking beneath the beautiful surface and framgångsfernissan in Los Angeles. "Sunset Grill" and "The end of the innocence" will still something and is also refined composed songs.
He picks up the Eagles epic, rarely played "The Last Resort", about man's eternal tendency to destroy himself, feels like a commentary on the political situation at home in the United States. The somewhat unexpected cover of Tears for Fears' Everybody wants to rule the world "as well.
It also honors Henley that he manages to get the audience to put aside their mobiles for almost the entire show ( "As we used to say in the 60's: Be Here Now"). At the same time feels himself not always one hundred percent currently, some of those must-songs go a little routine.
And a part of all that which sold discs in the Eighties has de facto time has not been so kind.

I forgot to add. The setlist is in the article. Their is a Long Road Out of Eden song in the set, but Don's not singing it from what I read.
Re: Don Henley in Stockholm, Sweden - June 20, 2016
I translated something else from the article.
Don Henley
Plats: Globen, Stockholm. Publik: Halva arenan är avskärmad och somliga platser gapar tomma så kanske 3 000. Längd: 128 minuter. Bäst: ”The last resort”, ”New York minute” och Tift Merritts ”Bramble rose”. Sämst: ”All she wants to do is dance” är ingen svängfest, titeln till trots.
