The band’s line-up has been expanded to include country singer Vince Gill and guitarist Deacon Frey, son of the late Glenn Frey.

Speaking to Rolling Stone, Joe Walsh said, “We’ve got some new blood. We all know the songs pretty good, but we just have to run the drill. It’s like being an athlete and doing the reps to get into shape. The new guys [Deacon Frey and Gill] have to get to the point where it’s automatic or it’s transparent.

“I don’t think we’ll ever tour again, but I think we’ll do six shows a year, something like that,” he concluded.
