What should Don's tour for Cass County be like?

[AlreadyGone95]

Maybe with the country flavor, he'll do more dates in the south. I think Nashville's a given, but perhaps Atlanta, Little Rock, Birmingham, NOLA, and dear old Memphis would also be warranted.

Exactly what I was thinking and hoping for.

This is unexpected. I wonder if it's true?

When I saw this, I had wonder if Steuart will be in the band too since he has many years of experience playing country music. Plus he was in Rodney Crowell's band for many years before he joined the Eagles and still tours with Rodney when the Eagles are not touring. Don usually do have two guitarist anyway, but we'll see.

Someone posted this on one of the Don Henley Appreciation group. He has a facebook page, but it hasn't been updated since 2010 when his album was released. He's got a nice voice, good guitar playing and he's kinda cute. lol At least he's going to be easy on the eye.

It looks like Chris Holt is, so far, non-committal!
I'm imagining that Peter Thorn is working with somebody else. Henley is very loyal to his backing band.

I hope Steuart is in the band. It greatly increases the possibility of Don performing Center Of The Universe, Business As Usual and/or Waiting In The Weeds during the tour.

According to his résumé (https://dallas.schoolofrock.com/faculty/chris-holt), Don sings back up on Chris Holt's forthcoming solo album, Stargazer.

As always, thanks for the links VA.

Good one, Austin - I'll iron those darn check shirts, polish his old boots and throw his bottle of hair dye away...I'll even sing backing if he's stuck - I know all the words, I've played his songs enough of times!...c'mon Don, I'm waiting....

I don't know how you read 'non-commital' into this given that Holt himself is not quoted.

As for your assumption that Don may perform COTU & BAU, neither of which he has ever peformed, good luck with that. He has a new album to promote. He's going to do new songs from that, not songs from an album which the Eagles have discarded. He never played those two songs with the Eagles so why would he play them on his own? That would indicate that he also wouldn't do WITW since that song relies so much on the Eagles harmonies. Also since 2007 he has done solo shows with Steuart. If he had wanted to perform any of those songs he had every opportunity to do so.

And before you say 'but Glenn did a couple of LROOE songs which he never performed with the Eagles' - yes, he did. Before LROOE was released & the songs were new.

Sounds good to me. I also know his and the Eagles material front to back. I think it'd be a good thing!
