The Eagles brought “The Long Goodbye” Final Tour to Raleigh, N.C.’s PNC Arena Thursday night, leaving many to wonder if it’s REALLY their last time around.
One might think it’s true, given that Joe Walsh, Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmidt are in their mid-70s, but there’s always the chance there’s one more trip down the fast lane for this bunch.
The Doobie Brothers, sounding as tight as ever, opened the show.
