40-50 concerts in a year is a lot.
Yes its definitely more than a 'handful'. That an average of up to 1 a week

I hope they will do some arena sized shows as stadiums are just too big. Also hoping for a UK show. This is great news that they are still touring but I fear not for too much longer.
I really hope they come to Knoxville. It's been a staple of their major tours.
And it's in Country music territory, and I expect them to try to use Vince's roots to their benefit. Plus Atlanta sold out 2 shows!!! Maybe they'll feel like Knoxville would be a good stop.
I can see them playing Nashville. A lot of country stars will be there like they did at the Grand Ole Opry and they were even there when the guys came there during the HOTE tour. Even if Vince wasn't in the band, they will still come. A lot of them loved and were influenced by the Eagles. They can sell out Nashville.
I'm hoping for shows in Memphis, New Orleans, Bossier City/Shreveport or Birmingham. Those cities are 3 hours north, south, west and east of me(they are literally 3 hours each direction). I can only hope for them to come to Mississippi, but I don't see that happening and they haven't had a show here in MS for probably 15 years and of course I wasn't a fan back then and I didn't know they were here. My cousin decided she wants to move back to Atlanta. So I could go to Atlanta now.

Brothers for life. RIP Glenn
I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother.

Not with me it isn't. But oh well. At the end of the day there will be 40-50 Pre Concert Anticipation threads as well as 40-50 Concert Review threads for people to share their excitement. Special thanks to Soda and WF88.

Dawn, I’m sorry I mis-read your intentions. It’s great to see all the positive comments coming in although I realize not everyone is happy about the tour.
True there will be chances in the future to be excited. But this recent announcement confirms what many of us have been speculating about, and it’s fun to start planning now, saving our $, etc. and wondering when and if they will play close by.
Right or wrong, what’s done is done
