Among the most popular rock bands in U.S. history, the Eagles will visit University Park as part of a fall 2010 tour. The group has won six Grammy awards and sold more than 120 million albums worldwide, according to a note from the Jordan Center.
According to the Eagles’ official website, the band’s 2010 fall tour will run from October through December and include 23 shows overall. Eleven of those will be in Australia; the rest will be in the U.S.
Outside of University Park, the tour’s only other scheduled date in Pennsylvania will be Oct. 19, when the Eagles will play Pittsburgh’s Consol Energy Center. The Eagles last played the Jordan Center in June 1996. Tickets then were priced at $78.50 apiece for seats at all levels.
