playing older / preBN era FM songs has nothing to do with Stevie because they don't affect her part of the FM setlist. and Stevie and Mick were insisting in the interviews that they cannot play more obscure songs because public will run for the bathrooms. yet now, they like to pretend those interviews (even from 2013 tour!) don't exist and the 2 of them were always the staunchest proponents of the obscure. 
Stevie's last solo tour was the only one where she was finally bold with the setlist - good for he! maybe she continues on this Mac tour too and drops Rhiannon and Dreams in favor of her deeper FM cuts.  |
Stevie's little dig that they couldn't go into the pre-1975 catalog because of Lindsey in their most recent CBS interview was simply nauseating. If she so loved Station Man or Rattlesnake Shake, why didn't she figure out a way to sing them (imagine her singing RS...lordy) in lieu of one of her own songs.
And she absolutely should consider shelving Dreams (although she would likely point out that SHE wrote that song and it's the only #1 that their version of Fleetwood Mac ever had so they HAVE to play it!), and that ramshackle version of Rhiannon that she's been lumbering along to for the last 20 years, and replace both with something deeper.
