MSG boss James Dolan may soon bag some endangered Eagles to soar in his gilded Las Vegas cage, The Post has learned.
The media mogul is talks with the legendary rockers — who go on their promised “final” tour next month — to belt out “Hotel California” and the bands many other classics during a residency in Sin City at Dolan’s soon-to-open $2.2 billion MSG Sphere, two sources near the situation said.
“They’re locking in dates,” one source said.
The Eagles begin “The Long Goodbye” — billed because the band’s last go-around after 50 years of touring — with a two-night stop at Dolan-owned Madison Square Garden Sept. 7-8.
They move on to Newark’s Prudential Center on Sept. 16 and Sept. 17, and Long Island’s UBS Arena on Sept. 20. Their last official concert is scheduled for St. Paul, Minn., on Nov. 17.
Nevertheless, Dolan hopes to maintain the Eagles rocking on the Sphere with a residency that might bring the rockers out for an prolonged encore, sources said.

Dolan didn’t comment.
A spokesman for the band left open the chance that future live shows could also be added.
“Scheduling information can be released as dates are set and we hope to see as a lot of you as we will before we wind up,” the rep told The Post.
Up to now, U2 is the one act signed to perform on the state-of-the-art venue when it opens Sept. 29.

Dolan has booked Bono’s band for 25 nights, with tickets on the 20,000-seat venue fetching $1,500 for the primary shows.
Stay On the Money
Essential weekly read to fuel business lunches.
The Knicks and Rangers owner paid U2 $10 million to open the Sphere, which suffered construction delays and price overruns, as The Post previously reported.
Dolan may get a hand in landing the Eagles from long-time and music promoter Irving Azoff, who represents each U2 and the Eagles.
Dolan also has a private bond with Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh.
The “Life within the Fast Line” singer produced an album for Dolan’s rock group JD & The Straight Shot in 2014 titled “Where I’ve Been.”
Walsh — who joined the band in 1975, replacing Bernie Leadon — and the remainder of the Eagles recently mourned the lack of founding member Randy Meisner.
The bassist and vocalist wrote hits including ‘Take it to the Limit,” but had not performed with the Eagles in 46 years.
He died July 26.
Glenn Frey, one other founding member, passed away in 2016.
That leaves Don Henley because the last original Eagle — and Dolan hopes the singer decides to envision out the Sphere anytime he likes, and possibly never leaves.
