The Eagles played Roanoke Civic Center on May 23, 1975 in Roanoke, VA. Linda Ronstadt was also there as the warm-up for the near-capacity crowd. There are several nice photos below, however, Randy Meisner is not in any of these stage photos, unfortunately.
According to the setlists for the Eagles, 1975 was their busiest year. They were on their One of These Nights tour, and the Eagles had four concerts with Linda Ronstadt four nights in a row:
- Capital Centre in Largo, MD on May 22, 1975
- Roanoke Civic Center in Roanoke, VA on May 23, 1975
- Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, VA on May 24, 1975
- Richmond Coliseum in Richmond, VA on May 25, 1975

“Friday night Linda Ronstadt was the warm-up for the Eagles but this time the entire house of 9,801 gave her two roaring, standing ovations.”
“Andrew Gold and Ed Black offered Linda solid support with three guitar duets.”

“It was a night of easy listening as the two groups cranked out hit after hit before a near-capacity crowd of 9,800 placid listeners.”
