BREAKING NEWS: Vince Gill & The Eagles Announce “The Long Goodbye Tour 2025” — A Farewell Journey Fans Never Thought They’d See
Los Angeles, California — It’s the announcement the world has been waiting for — and the one fans hoped would never come. The Eagles, one of the most iconic and influential bands in rock history, have officially unveiled plans for “The Long Goodbye Tour 2025”, a farewell journey marking the end of an era. Joining them once again is country legend Vince Gill, whose powerful vocals and soulful guitar work have breathed new life into the band’s classic sound since 2017.
This final tour promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience — a celebration of five decades of timeless music, friendship, and legacy. With Vince Gill standing alongside longtime members Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit, the lineup is set to deliver emotional performances of the songs that defined a generation, including “Hotel California,” “Desperado,” “Take It Easy,” “One of These Nights,” “Lyin’ Eyes,” and “Take It to the Limit.”
“The time has come,” the band shared in a heartfelt statement. “After more than 50 years of making music together, we want to say goodbye in the best way we know — on stage, with our fans.”
Vince Gill, who joined The Eagles following the passing of Glenn Frey, has been praised for the grace, humility, and emotional depth he brings to the group’s sound. His renditions of “New Kid in Town” and “Take It to the Limit” have been widely celebrated by fans and critics alike, seamlessly blending his own country warmth with the band’s signature California rock harmonies.
Concertgoers can expect a full-scale production worthy of the Eagles’ legacy — complete with orchestral arrangements, cinematic lighting, and heartfelt tributes to the late Glenn Frey, whose spirit continues to guide the band’s journey. For many, this farewell tour will be more than just a concert; it will be a deeply emotional farewell to a sound that shaped the soundtrack of the 20th century.
“The Long Goodbye Tour 2025” will span major arenas and stadiums across North America, with select dates in Europe and Australia to follow. Each night promises to be an unforgettable mix of nostalgia and artistry — a reminder of why The Eagles remain one of the best-selling bands of all time, with over 150 million albums sold and six Grammy Awards to their name.
Fans have already flooded social media with memories, gratitude, and disbelief that this legendary chapter is coming to a close. “I grew up with their music — it’s the soundtrack to my life,” one fan wrote. “Seeing Vince Gill with them feels like the perfect ending — respectful, soulful, and full of heart.”
For Don Henley, the tour represents both a farewell and a final thank-you. “This music has carried us farther than we ever dreamed,” he said. “Now it’s time to celebrate it one last time with the people who made it all possible — our fans.”
As the lights dim and those first unmistakable chords of “Hotel California” ring out, there will be no doubt — history is being written one last time.
“The Long Goodbye Tour 2025” isn’t just the end of an era. It’s a final salute to harmony, craftsmanship, and the kind of songs that never fade. And with Vince Gill by their side, The Eagles are preparing to say farewell exactly as they should — with beauty, grace, and one last chorus that will echo forever.
