Deep River presents The Long Run: The Eagles 20 Greatest Hits 1972-1994 In Songs & Stories at Triskelion!

The current line-up includes Sharon Lewis on bass guitar and vocals (27+ years) Sandy Howard on acoustic guitar and vocals (27 years) Gerry Brown on pedal steel, dobro, acoustic- and Telecaster guitars (12 years) Justin Watt on drums (11 years) Alec Fehl on lead guitar (3 years) vocalist Nita Smith (2nd year) and just for The Eagles show, Bob Bencze on keyboards and Tim McCall on 6- and 12-string acoustic guitars, Telecaster- and bottleneck slide guitar.
