Lindsey also was FANTASTIC. ISA solo... Lindsey was so into it.
Oh Well, Tusk, Go Insane, totally rocked the house.
A woman came up to me during Tusk and mentioned the whole "USC marching band" thing and this version was even better than the video.

I too have noticed that Lindsey shakes his hand to limber up his fingers before Big Love. Not sure it really is due to pain or stiffness (just guessing here), but more to prepare for the song and the finger picking it requires. Plus could just be a little bit of showmanship... kind of like a pianist would limber up their fingers right before playing.

I so wish there would be a professionally done DVD of this tour like what was done for the live in Boston DVD, but am so glad the fan base is so active in sharing audio and video.

GYOW really had the crowd dancing and just remembered too that as soon as Rhiannon started, the whole audience immediately stood up and started to yell and applaud and danced during the whole song (at least my section did anyway). Same with GDW, my whole section was so into the song.

The guy next to me said the last time he saw FM was in 1977 and he was just trying to soak it all in. I could tell he was really impressed with how well the band still rocks.

The morning after the show, was at a slot and a guy talked to me about FM (had on my concert t-shirt), he also has been to several shows this tour and is really impressed with the band.

I did take some photos of FM four face shot signage all around Caesars and the venue, will post asap. Was really cool to be walking around Caesars and see posters of Fleetwood Mac all over the place.

After the concert, a security guard at Caesars asked me how the show was and could tell he was a fan. He asked about Christine and said she is missed.
I reassured him though that the show still ROCKED and said he should catch a show if given a chance.

There were so many people in the casino that asked me how the show went (again wearing my concert t-shirt), and really can tell that FM just sends everyone back in time to a simpler and more enjoyable time and is remembered on fondly.
