Hey!
Just announced today they are coming to BC...in May. Pre-sale tix go on sale this friday (if you have the "code"). If any of you want to scoop some tix let me know and I will send you the pre-sale pswd!
Damn, they still around?
Seriously though they do bring up found memories like nights out at the lake with the moon reflecting off the water ......
That reminds me Lynn, I did offer you the chance to have a few beers and hang out with Rob, Gordo and the rest of they guy's didn't I? I'm keeping an eye on the tour dates, for when they come into town. It might be a while though. They like to tour then take a year of so off to spend time with family. But don't fret, it may take a while but I do deliver on my promises
lol
Yes you did!!!!
And hey...re: Mac...stoppit!!!! You're making me feel old!
Just kidding...well not really.

I'm excited about seeing them. They were here several years ago...I had tix and when we got there...they had cancelled cuz Stevie had a friggin cold. I was not a happy camper... But alas...I get to see them in May!
Geez...I am getting crispy!
I'd like to see Fleetwood Mac. I enjoyed a documentary on them that was on TV a few years ago.
By the way, I read an article in the musician's union trade paper that said it took Stevie Nicks 19 years to get out of her initial 7 year recording contract, because the record company kept her busy touring and only then she got out of it because she signed away royalties on her boxed set of albums, which traditionally would be an artist's retirement package.
So maybe she can use the money from the tour... There are some crazy success stories in the music business.
Ha! Reminds me of the Wayne's World joke about everybody in the suburb getting Rumors in the mail along with a free sample of Tide. As a USC fan, I have to love the Mac (especially when they play Tusk). U-C-L-A sucks!
How much of the original band will it be? Will it just be Nicks with a bunch of new guys?

From all I have read - it's a reunion tour. I expect it to be nicks and the orig, dudes.
Amazing they could get the whole group back together with all the drama, divorces, and sleeping around that went on between them. Maybe time heals everything (or maybe they are getting a boatload of dough). Either way glad to see them still making music.
I am suprised they are still around considering the fact their music is fairly dated. Then again, so is KISS and I dig them alot.

I disagree. In fact I've recently been thinking that what the music industry could use is another Fleetwood Mac.

Me, I move on. Yes I still enjoy a lot of music, very diverse in fact. It depends on my mood, I listen at times to Mozart, Chopin, then some Elvis, Big Mama Thorton, Hank Sr., Beatles, Sex Pistols, The Avengers, etc. But mostly what I listen to now is Industrial, you know Tool, :wumpscut, Front Line Assembly, Combichrist etc. Basically I enjoy talent and creativity. I've never really liked "Pop" music, it's nothing but the major Media conglomerates putting together music in a package to sell as a "consumer product" for the "Herd". Pop music is just too sterile and lacks pretty much any creativity.
Careful... not all music that makes it into the pop realm is 'herd' music. It's funny, but it's my foray into independents that helped me grow an appreciation for all things Fleetwood and Moody and Bolan. wumpscutt, Mentallo and the Fixer, sKINNY pUPPY - these types of projects do much for clearing the head of 'herd' programming musically, consequently I have found my forays into music much more genuine since. Even if what I'm listening to is 'pop'.

I was specifically speaking of "Pop" music, NiN and Tool sure isn't "Herd" music and it's made it to the airwaves. Not to mention the Greats like Johnny Cash, who I had the immense pleasure and privilege of meeting not once, but twice.
OH and for the record, yes I love Fleetwood Mac
I love Fleetwood Mac. Is Stevie going to be there? I love her voice. It's so husky and awesome! I would love to hear some new stuff from them.
