Vince Gill and the Eagles Make Grand Ole Opry History

On Sunday night, Vince Gill and the Eagles rocked the Grand Ole Opry with another sizzling hot collaborative performance.

Gill was joined by the amazing musical genius of Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmit, Joe Walsh, Deacon Frey, son of the late Glenn Frey, and long-time touring guitarist Steuart Smith. Together they performed AM, FM, and satellite radio staples, along with over a dozen of the band’s greatest hits.
