Ok, I absolutely love this shot! Lindsey, just hanging out, watching Mick solo.

They came out of the starting gate with flames coming out of their nostrils. The only very very very minor pause was just before Gypsy, when Stevie forgot to begin her new introduction to the song, but she made up for it. Her intro to Landslide was incredibly heartfelt... someone help me here... I went to the men's room for a minute and when I came back she was telling a tale of some 50 children who sang Landslide to them just that afternoon and it made her burst into tears. She spoke directly to Lindsey at that point and said, "I don't know if you remember when I gave you that cassette..." (her demo for Landslide) "I was just 27 years old and I couldn't play guitar very well... and I gave the tape to Lindsey Buckingham, who can play anything... and he played it back to me and it made me run into the other room and burst into tears. And this afternoon, when those kids sang Landslide to me here in Madison Square Garden, it made me burst into tears again. So tonight, I dedicate this to those 50 children and all of you who have come back to the garden tonight..." then she sang Landslide.

They were incendiary tonight.

Well, it was a great concert. FM as a whole was on and working as a well oiled machined. They are best when they work as a group. Tonight, the sum was FAR greater than the number of parts.

I was on the front row at LB's feet. We totally interacted. He walked up to me TWICE and let me play his guitar. He was on fire tonight and his playing was great.

La Nicks also was on fire. I loved her vocals, esp. on GDW. She was out of the world on "DRAGON!"

In the end, when they shine, they are a supernova even at their age.

As an aside, The Garden looked maybe half full. But, that certainly did not stop them for putting on a great show.

Finally, it was great seeing my old and new ledgie friends. TrueFaith77, I kept looking over at you dancing and screaming. You were having the time of your life!!!!!

Also, who was the blonde girl who hugged me after the concert?

Little bit of video from tonight. Didn't take much else since I don't like distracting myself from actually watching for too long, oops.

PS 22, Landslide, Stevie Nicks and Madison Square Garden get mentioned on Nightline:

It had to be a poignant moment for Stevie--her song, her words have reached a whole new generation, and they will probably never forget meeting her. That's pretty amazing! The Nightline piece clearly demonstrates the importance of music in schools across America, and our need to support the arts and these children.
