The Eagles
Enough with tequila sunrise. It's the sunset for the Eagles, or so they promise, as their Long Goodbye Tour lands in St. Paul for two nights. Unlike their last go-round when they played "Hotel California" in its entirety, this is an Eagles greatest hits show, with a couple Joe Walsh and Don Henley solo smashes mixed in. This tour also has an opening act: Steely Dan has been advertised, though it has bowed out of all shows since Sept. 20 because frontman Donald Fagen was hospitalized with an unspecified illness. Although Fagen is out of the hospital, the Doobie Brothers will open here. (7:30 p.m. Fri. & Sat. Xcel Energy Center, 199 W. Kellogg Blvd., St. Paul, $144.50-$1,750, ticketmaster.com)

'Big Hits of Mid-America, Vol. 3' Reissue Party
A sought-after vinyl set that goes for $50-plus at record shows, this 1979 double-LP compilation of mostly Minnesota acts from a then-fledgling Twin/Tone Records — based on a prior series from the Soma label — is getting an overdue vinyl reissue from Hopkins-based BackGroove Records. Some of the surviving acts on it are reuniting on stage to celebrate the rerelease, including: pioneering punk trio the Suicide Commandos; garage-rock greats the Hypstrz with Billy and Ernest Batson; hard-grooving rockers Fingerprints and the Pistons, Milwaukee's Yipes! and the ever-enduring Curtiss A. (7 p.m. Sat., Hopkins Center for the Arts, 1111 Mainstreet, Hopkins, $30-$35, $60 with LP, hopkinsartscenter.com)

Liz Phair
One of the most celebrated indie records of the 1990s, Phair's double-LP debut, "Exile in Guyville," turns 30 this year, and she's marking the occasion by playing it in full with a live band for the first time on tour. Candid and wry tracks like "Stratford-on-Guy," "Divorce Song" and "[Expletive] and Run" set the then-early-20-something Chicago rocker apart as what music critic Edna Gundersen called "a royally perturbed feminist," and there's an enduring charm and power in them. Los Angeles-based opener Blondshell, aka fuzz-rocker Sabrina Teitelbaum, put on a riveting set in the Entry in July. (8 p.m. Fri., Palace Theatre, 17 W. 7th Place, St. Paul, $50-$100, axs.com)

Jonas Brothers
Now we know why Joe Jonas looked so distracted at the Minnesota State Fair — his marriage was breaking up. Plus, that night the Jonas Brothers had to abbreviate their Five Albums One Night World Tour show because of State Fair time constraints. So now we get the full Jo Bros in their version of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour — more than 30 songs in nearly three hours by Kevin, Joe and Nick. Lawrence, another sibling pop act, opens. (7 p.m. Sun., Xcel Energy Center, 199 W. Kellogg Blvd., St. Paul, $45-$695, ticketmaster.com)
