Gurn Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Just got back from the concert. Good solid almost three hour show. Finally the whole band together again. I think these guys are going to be one of the bigger box office tours this year. Paid $177 per seat in the nosebleeds about 3 rows from the ceiling on the right side of the stage- inline with Christie McVie. Wide range of ages at the show, apparently they are getting more interest now as a show called American Horror Show uses their music a lot. The major thing I take away from this concert is Lindsey Buckingham is a PHENOMENAL guitarist. I will be listening to their albums over the next couple of days and will concentrate a bit more on this guy. Aways liked Christie as singer above Stevie Nicks, who did have a much bigger/better solo career than the others. Played a lot of Rumours and the self titled album with 3 or 4 from Tango In The Night, including a solo by Lindsey doing Big Love, and a couple from Mirage. Ended with songbird (My favourite) as last song of a 4 song encore. Maybe the last show of them in Vancouver as they are getting OLD-aren't we all?

-DLC- Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Saw them 100 years ago...Stevie was one of my idols growing up (people at highschool gave me her nickname because they thought I looked/dressed like her). Wish I wasn't on such a tight budget, would have LOVED to have been there. So good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theminister Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Was there last night. That was my 3rd show I've seen of them. They're always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I saw them was in the 70's at the Coliseum, Stevie was so stoned I couldn't believe that she was able to perform. Their music is timeless, and yes Lindsey Buckingham can play the guitar. Hell, if the Stones are still touring in their mid-seventies, you can bet FMac will be around as well.

Nuxfanabroad Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Ahh, the Mac..God I would've loved to see that! It's amazing they all performed-seemed they spent 2~3 decades arguing like school kids! AM or FM radio, there was always FMac playin. Great albums to enjoy when you're chilling out at home, in the morn. Their first incarnation, as a blues act with Peter Green(supposedly one of the all-time 'greats' on guitar) was hugely popular in Britain, late 60's..That poor bloke lost his mind, trippin' on acid. Found it cool that they wrote 'Black Magic Woman' performed so timelessly by Carlos Santana. & yeah Deb, Stevie was all the rage back in the early '80s, wasn't she? Loved the duets with Henley & Petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thema Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I'm betting they didn't play a single song that was less than 10 years old. Making hay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
