Dream Buckingham/McVie tour setlist
 

I hope they tour to promote the new album. The possibilities are endless for such a duo. The tour would not bring in the big bucks the last FM tour will bring so maybe John and Mick will save their strength for the big tour.
Here would be my dream setlist: Post yours but pick 20 songs only and 2 encores.

Eyes of the world
Think about me
Tango in the Night
Isn't it midnight
New song
Brown Eyes
Save me a place
Hold Me
Go Insane
Got a Hold on Me
New song
Everywhere
Tusk
Loving Cup
Trouble
The smile I live for
New song
Can't go back
Why
Go your own way
Don't stop
Songbird

they can sing the phone book, as long as they cover Landslide


seriously all new songs and a few solo or mac

I love you Olive.. don't make me hate you.. :xoxo:

i can live with any mac song recorded before 2014 not being played except that :xoxo::xoxo::xoxo:

where's my Walk a Thin Line? :cool:

can't do just 20 songs, sorry. and definitely 6 new songs.

here's one possible version:

The Chain :D :angel:
Hold Me
New song
New song
Walk a Thin Line
Think About Me
Bleed to Love Her (fast version)
Got a Hold on Me
What Makes You Think
Steal Your Heart Away
New song
New song
Big Love
Say You Love Me
Tusk
Everywhere
Red Rover
New song
New song
Come
Little Lies
Go Your Own Way

encore:

World Turning
Don’t Stop
Songbird

8 old songs FM from each writer skipping many hits, no solo, 2 old co-written songs, 6 new songs

That's a nice setlist, though in terms of what would be more likely I think World Turning might be a given. Also I can't see Lindsey not playing Big Love as that is his signature song. I'd personally take out Trouble and find space for more new songs. Also a Peter Green number seeing as its the 50th anniversary of him founding the band.

I actually don't see them doing that many deep cuts. I think it's going to be new songs and as many hits/standards/classics as possible. I think they'll use this to prove something.

You Make Loving Fun

yeah... if they are playing any solo songs (which imo they shouldn't), then i'd much rather Lindsey plays something less played like Rodeo, In Our Own Time, or Rock Away Blind. there's no need for Trouble or Go Insane.

i think you are right - they'll do 6 new songs and then all their FM hits. but i couldn't resist skipping most of their FM hits and put in some deep cuts on my list, making a compromise.

That would be wonderful! In addition to this, I would LOVE to hear them play a real blues song with Christine playing real blues piano. Why couldn't they revive "Get Like You Used To Be"?

1.Eyes of the World
2.Everywhere
3.Hold Me

5.My Little Demon
6.Say You Love (Banjo)
7.Blue Letter
8.(New Song)

10.Big Love
11.Never Going Back Again(Christine duet that's a metaphor for Stevie never being welcome back to the band)
12.Think About Me
13.(New Song)
15.(New Song)
16.Over & Over
17.Not That Funny (Extended)

Also, if they do a 4 person tour, I hope Christine is placed up front by Lindsey. Maybe even both of them in the center right next to each other

What size venues do you think they'll play? Elle wrote that she thinks they will play Fillmore size venues (small), but I just can not imagine them not being able to play larger places, like maybe the Greek Theater.

Kevin

This is so exciting. I think they could do solo material. It's not a Fleetwood Mac show. It's Buckingham/McVie

Oh, I agree. I'd love some deep cuts. In place of "Landslide," I'd love an acoustic reworking of "Never Make Me Cry," but I can't imagine them doing that.

Why on earth would they do Landslide??

I was saying in place of where Landslide is typically in the Fleetwood Mac set, Buckingham McVie could do an acoustic version of Never Make Me Cry.

I know.. Olive mentioned them doing it.. and then when it came up again.. I thought.. huh?? I am so sick of that song.

Lindstine should do a double bill tour with Stevie. I could get into that!:]

no Stevie on the album, no Stevie on tour to promote that album. which also means no drama. simple.

yeah i think that Steve and i are still a bit stuck in the mindset that they'd be going under Fleetwood Mac moniker - and they have so many FM hits between the 2 of them, certainly more than BN version of FM that always had to do 1 - 2 of Christine's songs had. since that's out now, i guess they really can do whatever they want. solo, mac, anything. exciting!! :]

They can even do Christine Perfect material.

Without the Fmac name the possibilities are endless.

no, i wrote i WISH they would play that size venues and not arenas or sheds.

i think they'd be able to play whatever they want, although for arenas they may need a co-act since they are not going out as Fleetwood Mac. in reality. they will probably chose to play 3-4k theaters.

It's exciting to think of this as a blank slate, but the reality is that they have histories of playing it safe with setlists in their solo ventures, and I don't think that will change with this. If anything, I think they'll go safer.

Oh, sorry, my bad. I wish too :) I can't imagine seeing Chris and Lindsey at the Fillmore :) Let's keep our fingers crossed :)

The smaller the better. I would love to see them intimately.

When Christine toured to promote her self-titled album in the 1980s, she played two of her FM songs from the "Bob Welch era." They were "Spare Me a Little" and "Just Crazy Love." I would LOVE to hear those two, or for that matter, just about any of her songs from those five great albums.

I don't really expect it, but it's fun to fantasize.

I agree 100% with you. If Stevie can pull out Crying in the Night, they can certainly pull out one of Chris's old ones. Here's to hoping... :)


Kevin

I hope if they do this they'll embrace solo songs and classic Rumors line-up tunes like stuff from Welch era for Christine.

Not in order, but..

WOW, I'm dreaming, because it would just be the AM Radio hits and a few new songs, but a man can dream (hence the title of the thread haha)

As much as I'd want a tour with a lot of goodies and rarities, I'd bet we'd get this with 4 or 5 new songs sprinkled in;

The Chain
Say You Love Me
Over My Head
Oh Daddy
Second Hand News
Little Lies
Everywhere
Tusk
Go Insane
I Know I'm Not Wrong
Never Going Back Again
I'm So Afraid
Big Love
Hold Me
You Make Loving Fun
Go Your Own Way
World Turning
Don't Stop
Songbird

Not necessarily a dream set list but a bit of a guess;

Big Love
In My World
Everywhere
Get Like You Used To Be
Trouble
Too Far Gone
Love Will Show Us How
Friend
Got a Hold On Me
I’m So Afraid
Red Sun
Feel About You
Go Insane
Shut Us Down
Never Going Back Again
Carnival Begin
Isn’t It Midnight
Tango In The Night
World Turning
Don’t Stop

Encore: Hold Me, Go Your Own Way, Why

You had me at Why!

Will be so boring if they do the Mac standards. This is the time for creativity (Lindsey has tonnes of it remember :cool:), come up with an interesting set list!

Hold Me must be on it.

Agreed- they are not going to perform that many FM songs. Remember, according to them, this is NOT Fleetwood Mac. I anticipate a 16-17 song set list, with more than a few long guitar solos.

I'm So Afraid
World Turning
Songbird
Big Love
Never Going Back Again

Maybe Don't Stop and Hold Me.

please no Trouble! would LOVE Hold Me though! Little Lies went over extremely well on the last Mac tour so they might do that one again. and i loved SYLM, wouldn't mind that at all.

what i would love to hear from LB (besides the new songs and minus IMW) is - Rodeo and To Try For the Sun. IOOT and/or TTWLG again. Rock Away Blind with full outro. and of course Walk A Thin Line.

no particular order:
I'd rather go blind
Why
Got A hold on me
Morning Rain
The way I feel
Remember me
Did you ever love me
World Turning
5 from the new album
with Lindsey it's so varied another 8 would take a lot of thought...

I just can't see them being too adventurous with the setlist outside of the new stuff, which I hope they integrate well. My thoughts...22 songs, 6 new ones which I won't bother naming at this point without hearing them all, and one solo song each...

and now for something completely different, just ran into this on twitter - natural unprocessed voice (how different from the most recent song!) and pretty raw demo of Rodeo - i want this song in BuckVie setlist!

haha, since you did Christine, I'll do my Lindsey wishes, because i have MANY -

Setlist – 22 songs - 6 new ones, 8 Chris, 8 Linds

Lindsey staples – Big Love, GYOW, NGBA, ISA (i wish NGBA gone but probably won't happen. actually with Chris and backing band, Tusk will probably be there, and maybe SHN. which means no space for interesting solo or deep cuts, practically. we'll probably get NTF or best case scenario BTLH. argh Lindsey. :rolleyes:)

Lindsey extras that i'd like to see if he does only 4 staples – Rodeo, TTWLG, WATL, TTFTS, RAB
