It’s a tour made in country rock Heaven. The Eagles will headline a June stadium tour with country superstars the Dixie Chicks and Keith Urban* as opening acts. It’ll be the first time the three acts have toured together – and the fun begins on June 8 in Toronto.
Fans attending the shows will not be disappointed, as all three acts have a long list of greatest hits. The Eagles – Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit – will perform songs from their more than 35-year career, such as “Hotel California,” “Desperado,” “Life In The Fast Lane,” “Lyin’ Eyes,” “Take It To The Limit,” “One Of These Nights,” and “Heartache Tonight.”
The Dixie Chicks – Martie Maguire, Emily Robison and lead singer Natalie Maines – will hit the stage for the first time in four years, performing songs from all three of their albums including “Wide Open Spaces,” “Goodbye Earl,” and “Not Ready to Make Nice.”
Keith’s career already boasts 11 No. 1s, including “Days Go By,” “Sweet Thing,” Who Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me,” “You’ll Think of Me” and “Better Life,” as well as Billboard’s Country Song of the Decade, “Somebody Like You.”
