May 27th 1994 - Hell Freezes Over Tour In 1980 the Eagles, famous for “Hotel California,” “One of these Nights,” and at least a dozen other songs that you recognize, broke up. At the time Don Henley, lead singer, famously commented that the band would get back together “when Hell freezes over.” 14 years later in Irvine, California, Hell froze over. The band kicked off a world tour, aptly titled The Hell Freezes Over Tour, that would have the band traveling for the next two years. The Eagles sold out arenas all across the United States, and were the first band to charge over $100 for a ticket to their concert. When you complain about skyrocketing ticket prices, blame the Eagles. A live album was recorded while the band was on tour. Aside from live versions of the Eagles’ hits it also featured four new tracks (“Get Over It,” “Love Will Keep Us Alive,” “The Girl From Yesterday,” and “Learn To Be Still”) that were recorded in a studio, during the tour’s downtime. Hell Freezes Over, the album, debuted at number one on the billboard charts on November 8th, 1994. -- source link
