In December 2019 the band announced plans to play their iconic 1976 ‘Hotel California’ album in full at Wembley stadium in summer 2020 before the Covid-19 pandemic put a halt to live shows.
It was revealed last year that Eagles received Payment Protection Program (PPP) loans from the US government during the pandemic.
Reported by Rolling Stone, Eagles were among the bands that received the federal funding to support crews for current and future postponed tours, along with Pearl Jam, Guns N’ Roses and Green Day.
The financial support was part of the government’s $2 trillion CARES act intended for relief to small businesses impacted by the Covid.
The loan was listed under their touring company in an effort to save 50 jobs.
Rolling Stone identified more than 50 musicians and groups across various genres among the total 660,000 recipients who were granted a loan for more than $150,000, according to data.
