Default short Miami review

re audience characterization:

The legendary guitarist rocks classics from his chart-topping solo work and from his famed band Fleetwood Mac.
-review of the show at the Guzman Theatre (Miami).

Playing to a mixed crowd of grandparents to young adults, Buckingham created one of the most laidback ambiences I’ve ever witnessed. It seemed like everybody in the crowd was caught in a dreamlike trance, because not even for a second to people’s attention turn away. Yet, after making a name for himself with his unique guitar picking style in the mid-70’s with Fleetwood Mac and his solo work, he’s still jamming out now in his early 60’s. His latest album Seeds We Sow is a testament that as it reached as high as #45 on Billboard’s album charts.

Recently Buckingham extended his U.S. tour with additional dates on the East coast, Midwest and a few stops in Canada after overwhelming demand. The new six-week trek begins July 26 in Birmingham, AL and lasts through September 8 in Rama, Ontario. As for the rest of the country, they need not worry, as even more tour dates are in the works and will be announced in the coming weeks.
