Dead & Company launched its Dead Forever residency on May 16, 2024, after jam band Phish completed its shows and finished its 30-show residency run on Aug. 10, 2024, but did not say whether it would return for more shows.
The band was followed by the popular rock band the Eagles, who launched their residency at the Sphere on Sept. 20, 2024, with four shows each in September and October and then incrementally added four more shows each month for a total of 32 shows set to end on April 12, 2025.
The Eagles have not said whether the April shows are the final shows in the residency as its shows could share the calendar with other residencies, such as Dead & Company.
