The FOMO Is Real: Vince Gill and the Eagles Mesmerize With Stunning Visuals During Sphere Performance

Formed during the 1970s, the Eagles produced seven studio albums that gained them several awards and even sold over 200 million records. While carving out their own place in the music industry, the band decided to cross another milestone in September when they took the stage at the Las Vegas Sphere. Creating a venue unlike any other, the Sphere offered bands the ability to visually take fans on a journey through their discography. And for those who happened to see the Eagles perform, they had nothing but praise for the band and the venue that cost over $2 billion to build.

With a legacy that included songs like “Take It Easy”, “Take It to the Limit”, and “Hotel California”, the Eagles seemed like the perfect band to take over the Sphere. And thanks to some fans, they captured what it was like to watch the Eagles perform. With lyrics raining down, the band filled the entire space with dazzling visuals and amazing harmonies.

Looking at what fans had to say, one explained just how much they spent to attend the concert. And while it climbed over $2,000, they believed it was worth every penny. “It was so worth the money. 2500 dollars down but oh well.” Another person added, “When I say I am so jealous, I mean it.” And one fan claimed the venue was more than enough to get Pink Floyd to do a reunion concert, “If this venue doesn’t pull Pink Floyd into a reunion, then nothing will.”

Vince Gill Remembers “High Priase” He Received From The Eagles

While remembering their rich history, the Eagles never forgot former member Glenn Frey, who passed away in 2016. After his death, the band decided to bring in Vince Gill to fill the spot. Although some questioned the decision, it seemed to work out. And for Gill, he never paid much attention to the concerns.

Speaking with Guitar World, Gill insisted all he needed was the approval of his fellow bandmates. “My favorite compliment came from Don Henley, who got a country rock guy in his band because I know how to be in a band. That’s high praise. I know what’s needed and don’t waste time playing stuff that no-one wants to hear.”

Recalling some of the best advice he received during his career, Gill went back to his first years starting out. “Man, I got a great lesson when I was a young whippersnapper when I played a solo on a record, and when I was done, the producer said, ‘That was impressive. Now do it again.’ I learned then and there only to do half of what I know. It was like a knife to the heart, but I got it.”
