EAGLES TO PERFORM AT SCOPE NEXT MONTH

The reunited Eagles will scale down their ``Hell Freezes Over'' tour of stadiums and amphitheaters for a concert at Norfolk Scope on Sept. 18. It will be the band's only Virginia appearance, according to a news release from Cellar Door Productions.

Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday at all Ticketmaster locations.

Prices have not been announced. To charge, call 671-8100. For more details, call 441-2161.

Before this year's shows, the Eagles last played together in 1980. The tour lineup includes Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit and Don Felder. There will be no opening act.

Interest in the Eagles' music has rarely flagged since their breakup. Songs such as ``Hotel California,'' ``Take It Easy'' and ``I Can't Tell You Why'' have remained radio staples.

A recent tribute album by current country stars such as Vince Gill and Travis Tritt, ``Common Thread: The Songs of the Eagles,'' has sold more than 3 million copies. by CNB
