Experience the Magic of The Eagles with The Ultimate Eagles Tribute – On The Border

Concert Set for Nov. 16 at Brinkley Amphitheater Following Gardner-Webb Football’s Showdown with Tennessee State

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.The legendary sound of The Eagles is coming to Gardner-Webb University this fall, and it’s an experience you won’t want to miss! The Ultimate Eagles Tribute – On The Border will perform live at the Brinkley Amphitheater on Saturday, Nov. 16, at 5 p.m., immediately following the final home football game of the season. Gates open at 4 p.m.

Tickets for the concert are $10 for general admission and $5 for Gardner-Webb football game ticket holders. GWU students get in free with ID. Tickets are available both in advance and at the gate.

The Ultimate Eagles Tribute – On The Border has earned a reputation for recreating the authentic Eagles concert experience, playing iconic venues like PNC Amphitheatre, House of Blues, and Hard Rock Casino. From the emotional ballads of “Desperado” and “Lyin’ Eyes” to the rockin’ energy of “Life in the Fast Lane” and “Life’s Been Good,” this tribute band delivers with precision.

Several reviews, including one from Live Nation venue, The Fillmore Charlotte, rave about the band’s ability to bring The Eagles’ sound to life. “With dedication, 70’s costuming, a surplus of musical chops, and a shelf full of papier-mâché Grammys, The Ultimate Eagles Tribute – On The Border pulls it off, treating fans to an authentic concert experience while journeying through The Eagles’ songbook. The band covers every hit…with such accuracy, that listeners may permanently confuse On The Border with the real Eagles. It’s truly a masterful sound to witness for yourself,” the commentary states.

This high-energy performance will take place as the sun sets at Gardner-Webb’s Brinkley Amphitheater, providing the perfect backdrop for fans to enjoy the rich harmonies and classic guitar riffs that defined The Eagles’ legacy.

Invite your friends, grab your football gear, and make it a day of unforgettable entertainment—watch the Runnin’ Bulldogs take on Tennessee State at 1:30 p.m. in Spangler Stadium, then cap it off with a live concert that will leave you singing along to every note.
