Steely Dan vocalist Donald Fagen is no longer in the hospital and expects to return to the road soon, a source close to the situation tells Consequence.

The news comes after Steely Dan missed the last three shows of their tour with The Eagles (grab tickets for upcoming dates here) in Denver on October 5th and 6th, as well as Monday, October 9th in Indianapolis. According to a report in the Indianapolis Star, Fagen was hospitalized due to an undisclosed illness.

In the interim, Sheryl Crow opened for The Eagles in Denver, while the Steve Miller Band stepped in beginning with the Indianapolis date and will play upcoming shows in Detroit and Cleveland. After that, current Eagles’ touring member Vince Gill will pull double duty and play a solo set to open the October 15th date in Pittsburgh.

Per Steely Dan’s website, the band is listed as rejoining the tour beginning on November 2nd in Atlanta. As of now, the final scheduled date is January 6th, 2024 in Los Angeles, but The Eagles previously teased that they expect the trek to “continue into 2025.” Grab your seats for upcoming shows here.

The Indianapolis Star also reported that five members of The Eagles’ road crew tested positive for COVID-19, leading Don Henley to thank the crew and Steve Miller Band for stepping in. “The show must go on,” he told the crowd at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Monday night.
