I agree, although I'm not 100% sure. I think Steuart plays the Pedal Steel parts on slide guitar.
I must reaffirm that I haven't attended a HOTE Eagles show although I've seen the band live numerous times, Despite the inclusion of a few obscurities, the HOTE set list has included more Eagles hits than any of their previous tours.
If the band are influenced by the audiences reaction to the tracks they play, will their next tour keep the rarities and maybe play one or two more or will they drop the rarities and stick to playing their major hits?
I am assuming. of course, that they change the set list, bringing back some solo hits or adding newer material.
Personally, I think, in the internet age, all songs are. pretty much. equal to a new audience. Who cares which songs were hits 40 years ago.
I get the impression that, even the biggest Eagles fans here, discovered them post HFO, long after their hits became hits.
