The Eagles’ Farewell 1 Tour: Live from Melbourne was a landmark event in rock history, showcasing the band’s enduring talent and timeless appeal. Recorded over three nights—November 14, 15, and 17, 2004—at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena, this concert captured the Eagles at their finest.
The performance featured a comprehensive setlist of 30 songs, spanning the band’s extensive catalog. Classics like “Take It Easy,” “Hotel California,” and “Desperado” were performed alongside solo hits from band members, such as Don Henley’s “The Boys of Summer” and Joe Walsh’s “Life’s Been Good.” The concert also introduced two new tracks: Glenn Frey’s “No More Cloudy Days” and Joe Walsh’s “One Day at a Time,” the latter reflecting Walsh’s journey to sobriety.
