I'm wondering if this isn't a mistake. It may be that there will be another opening act for the shows that Keith is not going to play. I think there was a brief mention about this in one of the promotional interviews, but I don't remember which one. Anyway, unless they are planning on starting VERY early, I don't think there is time for a fourth act. As I said earlier, I would think Keith and The Dixie Chicks will each play somewhere between 45 minutes to an hour, and then our guys will probably play about 90 minutes. In any event, unless it's somebody REALLY good, I don't think I'll be rushing there to see an opening act.
Re: Keith Urban and Dixie Chicks to open for Eagles in June!
How did we even come the the possiblity that 7BR may be performed by all the acts? I somehow missed this.
Re: Keith Urban and Dixie Chicks to open for Eagles in June!
That was my fault, LTL. Keith has done SBR in the past so I thought maybe... besides, it's a harmony-oriented song and one thing the Dixie Chicks have nailed is tight harmony. You gotta give 'em that. I still think it would be cool. Sure, hearing the Eagles do it themselves would be better, but I doubt that will ever happen again (although you never know).
Dreamer - some shows are starting at 5:30 or 6:00. The Meadowlands show starts at 4:30! I think there's time if you wanna get there that early. The local acts aren't usually on very long. The shows that start later though - I agree that the "+ opener" is probably a mistake for those shows, perhaps caused by a lack of differentiation between the shows that start early and the shows that start at the normal time.
Re: Keith Urban and Dixie Chicks to open for Eagles in June!
Yeah - Soda posted a video of Keith doing the song with Sugarland. Here he is again doing it with Lady Antebellum. He certainly does justice to the song, so I think it would be awesome to hear him do it with the Eagles. Besides, it's a song that I have always wanted to hear the Eagles do live, so I would certainly be willing for them to share the spotlight here. IMO, it would be the perfect song for them if they are going to share the stage.

And wow - I didn't realize that some shows are starting that early. If that's the case, I'm pretty sure that they would have an opening act. This will be like a mini-festival!

I agree.

OMG! It would definitely sound fantastic! So, Keith already knows the song and I'm sure the Chicks could do it. It's a given. They must do 7BR together! :pray:
Now, Keith is not going to be in St. Louis. :cry: Bummer! I was nearly talked in to going! Well, I still might. :headscratch: I probably will. Time will tell.
Re: Keith Urban and Dixie Chicks to open for Eagles in June!
See how awesomely the Dixie Chicks harmonize with Stevie on "Landslide" for a special performance on VH1:

They could totally do SBR with the guys and Keith.
Of course, Stevie is amazing, as always. ;)
Re: Keith Urban and Dixie Chicks to open for Eagles in June!
Yes, Stevie is always amazing.
Believe it or not, I'm feeling like I could possibly forgive the DC's! :shock:
