FM rocks the south - Greenville, SC

Mike B · #1 06-01-2003, 11:47 PM

Just got in from the Greenville show and FM is still giving it everything they have. This is the first show I've been to since Pittsburgh and they have tightened up even more since then.

I was in the 2nd row - I'm way too spoiled now - and the audience was great. Everyone was on their feet for almost the entire show. I'm amazed at the amount of audience interaction that Lindsey is doing now. I think he's enjoying the attention and dammit, he should be!

The setlist is the same as the most recent shows, and I think they've settled into a comfortable groove now. The standout songs for me tonight were I'm So Afraid, (it's still a mystery to me how a song this old just gets better and better with time), Beautiful Child (still amazing), Stand Back, Come, and, oddly enough, Silver Springs. I was totally "meh" on SS for the first few shows I went to. But tonight I really enjoyed it again. Strange how a song can take a different turn like that. GYOW was also a standout, but then, it always is when there are thousands of people screaming the chorus at once.

I'm so glad they are at it again...they're having a blast and giving us a tremendous show.

awesome! thanks for filling us in! as i have been forbidden from going to anymore shows until they are in my city (sigh) i am having to live vicariously through everyone's reviews... i just don't understand how travelling like 6000 miles in 6 days to see your fav band a few times is excessive and a waste of money ....

i can't wait to hear about more southern shows... the south is just a cool place... can't wait to hear about the old buckingham nicks fans coming out of the woodwork to go to the birmingham show!

Thanks for the highlights Mike! All of these reviews are the things I most look forward to.

Thanks for the review. I agree with you about I'm So Afraid, I think the arrangement is a little different on this tour. Actually, I think a few songs have been tweaked, nothing like the old days, but for us rabid fans it makes it a bit more interesting.

Did anyone else notice changes on some of the old songs? For some reason I notice it more on Lindsey's songs.

SS is definitely picking up some intensity as the tour progresses, and it's not 97 but it's got a bit of an edge and some heat
