The Eagles, the quintessential California rock band, will soar into Blaisdell Arena Nov. 29 and 30, bringing its trademark country-rock sound and many hits, along with a record-high admission charge for a pop music concert in Hawai'i.

Tickets will be $65, $95, $150 and $250, and will go on sale Saturday.

The group — now a foursome featuring Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit — is known for its folk-country, light-rock hybrid that defined the sound of '70s California via its signature "Hotel California" hit.

The Eagles' "Farewell I Tour" was launched last month with 12 sold-out shows in the Los Angeles area. The tour continues over the next few weeks, mostly in mammoth halls and stadiums, including the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim, the Staples Center in Los Angeles, the Oakland Arena and the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas. Several other dates are being added.

The Eagles last performed here at Aloha Stadium in November 1995, attracting 25,000. Top-tier tickets were $85.

The upcoming shows — in the more intimate Blaisdell Arena that can accommodate 8,000 — won't be cheap but are less expensive than playdates elsewhere.

In comparison, Californians are coughing up a fortune. Premium prices, culled from Web sites, are scaled from $90 to $460 at Fresno's Save Mart Center (about 15,000 capacity); $100 to $685 at Staples Center (between 18,000 and 20,000); and $115 to $7,980 (suite seating) at Anaheim's Arrowhead Pond (about 18,000). Less expensive seats also are listed at www.ticketmaster.com.

Honolulu sales (with an eight-ticket limit per buyer) will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday at the Blaisdell box office and all Ticketmaster locations, including Times Supermarket stores. To charge by phone, call (877) 750-4400; or visit www.ticketmas ter.com. The dates, however, are not yet logged at the outlets or Web site.

Marek Lieberberg Presents, which staged Celine Dion at Blaisdell Arena in 1998 and Aloha Stadium in 1999, is presenting The Eagles here.

The band is recapping a 30-year career in the current tour, reviving hits such as "Best of My Love," "Take It to the Limit," "Take It Easy," "Lyin' Eyes," "Peaceful Easy Feeling," "One of These Nights," "New Kid in Town," "Heartache Tonight," "I Can't Tell You Why" and "Desperado."

The group has amassed five No. 1 singles, four No. 1 albums, four Grammy Awards and has sold 120 million albums worldwide. After a breakup in 1980, members of the band released solo albums. By public demand, the band reformed in 1994 with a No. 1 album, "Hell Freezes Over." In 1998, their first year of eligibility, the Eagles were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame.
