I did, which is why I could see them doing something like this. The media doesn't pay attention to much details when they write press releases or log lines. Basic fans won't even know that's not FMac.

Like many fans, I pretty much ignored the band's output post-Tango until LB returned. But with Finn and Campbell on the roster, I'm intrigued. I'd rather it be the Rumours 5, but they've made my decision to stick with the band or dump them (again) much more difficult this time! So I'm curious to hear them next week. |

I'm sure they will sound fine with Neil's vocals and Mike's guitar.
With that said, neither of these two have the energy and charisma of Lindsey Buckingham. Make no mistake, Lindsey has been carrying the band on his back in live performances since 1997. Neil seems like an intelligent and creative kind of guy. But from what I've seen, he's pretty laid back. Great for small and intimate venues, but not for large arenas. Mike just wants to play his guitar. He's never been the "leader". So that leaves Christine and Stevie to fill the void. I think the world of Christine. But she is so frail. Remember, she's five years older than Lindsey and Stevie. At this point, she's just happy to be on stage. She doesn't have the energy or personality to lead the band. No doubt, Stevie now views herself as the leader of the band. Regrettably, she no longer has any range on her voice. And she's become so self centered and self obsessed, I can't bear to watch her. Her Music Cares speech was a real embarrassment. And judging from the body language of her band mates, they seem to agree. For me, Fleetwood Mac is dead. I do look forward to Lindsey's upcoming tour. |

Like I said in an earlier post, they could play Stop Draggin on Ellen and most fans would not know the difference. Christine stole the show during BTM tour. I thought $tevie looked like a zombie during the BTM tour. I give Rick and Billy a lot of credit. They rocked the house both tours. If this is going to work, they better jam, otherwise... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Your the third person in this thread to guess that pair so this post isn’t necessarily directed at you but it could be? I would bet anyone this board that it’s not that combination of Songs. It can’t be if they’re trying to make any sort of impression on people. They could invent a time machine and bring back themselves from 1977 including Lindsey and say “just kidding, it’s the 5 of us on this tour” and that combination of songs still wouldn’t impress anyone. Those 2 songs are great But have never made me go WOW in any way after seeing one of them performed live. Redoing the SYLM arrangement was cool on The Dance but still wasn’t a WOW moment and neither would showcase Mike Campbell being a worthy replacement (please no need to chime in and say “we know he’s not already” ) those opinions are well known, I’m talking about for the masses who might be on the fence. I’m not criticizing all of your picks, just saying if your right the band would be morons and I feel like they know they have to make a great impression to have any chance of not failing on this tour. At least Mick should be aware. And I mean it when I say I’d bet that. Anyone who wants to take this bet (monetary or otherwise) PM me

But, they are going to feature $tevie and Christine with mega hits. It's to promote the tour. And while not a WOW moment. (more like a gag moment for us). People are going to watch and go.. Oh yeah, I love those songs. I want to go see them.

My original vote was Don't Stop and Landslide. I still think this is possible.
I have been convinced it could be Stop Draggin in place of Landslide. Mike was part of it, it's a nod to Tom (and Mike can sound a lot like Tom singing) and it's more upbeat that Landslide. However, do not underestimate the power of Landslide-- it's beloved, people play it at their weddings and at funerals and all that. It's an emotional touchstone for people. So like someone above said, it can very much remind people why they love FM and help sell tix. World Turning has some chance since it ws mentioned by Neil Finn that they'd done it in a rehearsal and seemed to go well. However, my money is still on Don't Stop because daytime tv, and especially Ellen, isn't about wowing hipsters with your new stuff; it's about luring in the fans of the classics.

I agree they will perform Rhiannon- besides being a theatrical song, it will also give the audience a chance to see Mike Campbell let loose. I used to think Little Lies would be the other song, as it could showcase their harmonies, but now I think they'll do Don't Stop, which also has some harmonies, plus it'll showcase Neil's singing (with plenty of support from Christine and Stevie).
