During Ringo Starr’s Annual Peace & Love Birthday celebration at Beverly Hills Garden Park, The Eagles’ Joe Walsh talked to the press and answered questions about the band’s final tour, ‘The Long Goodbye,’ and seemingly contradicted their retirement plans.
The day before this chat, The Eagles had released an official statement claiming that their upcoming tour would be their final one. However, the band’s guitarist recently said:
“I think it’s probably the next to the last tour. We’re going to play until nobody comes. And then I guess we’re done.”
Ringo Starr added his own comment to the interview. He jokingly compared the band’s farewell tour to Elton John’s, which lasted over three years from 2018 to just last month:
“They’ll probably be like Elton; it’d take three or four years to get to that last week.”
‘The Long Goodbye’ tour is set to kick off at Madison Square Garden on September 7. It is also confirmed that the late Glen Frey’s son Deacon Frey will join the band’s current members during this tour.
