Fleetwood Mac confirm UK tour in September and possible new album

[KJP]

Springsteen the who and fleetwood mac all in the same year, that's an expensive set of gigs for me this year

 

[Frutos]

I definitely fancy this one.

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

Remember when we went to a night game at Withdean and I had a pair of hair straighteners in my man bag? The steward really didn't know what to make of it!

Yeah. Getting searched for offensive weapons and out come your Ghds.

That's soooo Brighton. The hair craze fell off when Jakey Robinson left I note.

 

[Titus]

Whoopy do. Too late and too old.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Excellent. Chances of getting a ticket = 0

Still will definately try.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Saw Le Grand Mac in the States in 1997 and they were vocally (both Nicks and Buckingham) excellent. Not sure about now though. Same with The Who - love them, but they really should knock it on the head as Daltrey hasn't the voice. In 2013 you're buying into a memory of these bands more than getting the true 'experience' of them.

Fleetwood Mac are a strange one for me - I love them, but they just don't go with the rest of my record collection at all. For me, their music is superficially a kind of superior MOR/AOR sheen, but when you dig into the lyrics and the story behind the music and just immerse yourself in the music, they really get to you. However, I won't be going to see them live as I'm sure it'll cost loads and their voices must be past their best. I live near Christine McVie - I think she just has a quiet life now in her mansion, walking her dogs and recording the odd bit of music at home. Good luck to her - she deserves a rest.

 

[Questions]

Am painting at home today and am having a music day. Just played Rumours and Tusk and am now on Live at Leeds.
My daughter of 21 just asked who the Who are. What sort of father am I ?

 

[MikeySmall]

They played in Sydney when I was there 3/4 years ago. $145 a ticket. Similar pricing I'd imagine.

 

[Dover]

I met Christine a couple of years ago in Deal. No chance she will go back into the studio, let alone tour. She is The Songbird, without her it would be flat as a pancake.

Like tinycowboy said, she appears to be very contented with life.

She was there Wednesday and hoping tonight as I shall be there!

 

[The Legend that IS Lawro]

Good stuff this, recent stuff has been a bit, erm, 'iffy'

 

[KJP]

I went on Tuesday, brilliant night

 

[Stoo82]

There were some draw dropping moments when Lindsey Buckingham was going full throttle.

Draw dropping? Pants? Furniture?

 

[Stoo82]

Draw dropping? Pants? Furniture?

As long as they're German you'll be happy though right?

 

[herecomesaregular]

Fleetwood Mac begins and ends with Peter Green I'm afraid (despite the name!)

 

[Binney on acid]

I saw them at The Rainbow during the 'Rumours' tour. The venues are too big now and I wouldn't like to see them without Christine McVie.

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

Just saw Stevie Nicks on TV with a cameo performance in "American Horror Story - Coven" - a cheesy horror series being shown in the States. Still has a great voice and looks pretty good for 65

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

Saw them at Wembley Stadium on 1st September 1990. Very good live.

Think I was there, were Jethro Tull one of the support bands?
