Lynyrd Skynyrd still puts on a pretty good show. Johnny Van Zant (Ronnie Van Zant's baby brother) is their front-man now. I've seen them a couple of times. Johnny's vocals are understandably very close to brother Ronnie's back in the day.

I finally got around to scanning the T shirt I got at the concert. There were no special Party of Two merchandise, but as you can see, Glenn & Joe's names are on it.
Very nice GL!

And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
It's a perfect occupation for me.
Late to the party here but I really enjoyed reading everyone's comments about the show; seems it was a heck of a time. I'm jealous!
As an ancillary note... Henley solo tells stories and generally seems to have a light, easy time. It sounds as though Frey and Walsh joked around and considered it more of a party than a job. Yet on the Eagles shows... nothing. Just the scripted jokes. I wonder what it is about the foursome that dulls the spontaneity.
ABM - This is nothing more than my humble opinion but I think the Eagles always had a rather stoic stage performance even back in the early days. I guess they may have just decided to maintain the same stage presence - you know, in like the "if it ain't broke, then don't fix it" mentality. I remember Glenn remarking before (I think on the F1 DVD interview) that they have to stay pretty close to their mikes. They can't stray too far because of all that gorgeous harmonizing.
But - it was fun to watch Joe and Glenn being so spontaneous on stage at this show. They looked like they were really enjoying themselves.
