I think Fleetwood Mac is too big of an act to play the Hollywood Bowl as its ONLY Los Angeles appearance. it's a magnificent setting, but can't hold enough people. They have too many fans in such a large city to use the Bowl, for just one night. If they were doing 2-3 shows there it would be different. But with one show, you just ensure that not all of your fans will get to see you. People will resell their tickets for thousands of dollars. Scalpers are always a problem, but playing a venue that's too small only makes matters 10 times worse.

Of course, this ensures that their Anaheim show in a neighboring county will sell out, but it's rather frustrating.
