FM Touring Europe May/June

[Macfanforever]

Everybody around the world loves Stevie and the Mac.Except for a few.The few dont know what they are missing. If everybody hated Stevie and the Mac .They or her would not even bother touring anymore.

What ever they do .I hope they make their rounds over there for you guys.

we NEED some freaking Aussie dates
put me out of my misery

but i would love earlier dates ... Sept/Oct would be nice

Its the sort of thing that often gives people around the world a negative view of Americans (I assume you are in America).

Of course he's american, no-one else could be so proud of their own ignorance and selfishness.

For the record, I've lived in two countries that are not the USA and have experienced idiots and ignorant comments aplenty in both. Those phenomena are not unique to Americans, Americans have just had a tendency to be the most visible over the past century. Stupidity/rudeness is a people-in-general thing. You can't let yourself get too bothered.

It's a little hilarious that someone would ever act surprised/outraged that this internationally mega-famous band is touring outside of North America with its most successful lineup on what was always billed as a "world tour". Like, who didn't see that coming? But yeah.

Chances are that WILL NOT HAPPEN...After the 2015 tour Stevie will almost certainly take a 2 or 3 year break from FM and I don't see them (FM) putting out a record and not touring with it so if a new album is not out in 2015 ( before the 2nd US leg or the UK dates) it might not be out until 2018 if ever...

Perhaps some work in the studio after the European dates before moving to Australia in nov??? I can not believe they will be left out this tour. Like Stevie said, this tour is a huge one......

Absolutely. I've visited the States many times and lived in L.A. for 2 years. I've always found most people to be nice, warm, considerate, welcoming and interested to speak with you. Unfortunately there is a small minority that are particularly insular and jingoistic that do not see past their borders and do no favours to their good fellow countrymen and women. I agree its not unique to America, though.

That said, I'd welcome 2 months off to complete the record before the European tour- it would have been great to have them change up the set list and play a few of the new numbers on that leg. Perhaps they'll complete Europe at the end of June and then spend time in the studio with Stevie before an Australasian leg (there's no way they wouldn't go there this time, surely) and return to the US for an album marketing push in late 2015.

Solo time- early 2016.

Are you serious?
1: Your beloved Stevie is the one reason they aren't going into the studio.
2: 60% of the band are British
3: Many of us have never seen the full Rumours lineup yet.
4: It's Fleetwood Mac, not the Stevie Nicks show.

But if they come is it certain Stevie Nicks will join? If I go it's 99.9% just because of her, lol.

Name me one reason why Stevie will not take part on the European leg off the Tour? I am sure they Will come to the countries you have mentioned....

That's wishful thinking on your part.

A more realistic scenario is that band will take a little break (3-4 months) and then will go back into the studio to finish the album (which would probably take six weeks, tops). Stevie will give the band three to five songs. Fleetwood Mac will probably only be off the road for eight months at most. Stevie could easily do the second 24KG and do a solo tour. I see a new Fleetwood Mac album coming out sometime in May or June, 2016. With all of the material they say they have, I also see the possibility of another Fleetwood Mac coming out sometime in mid to late 2017.

Following a record sell out tour in 2013, rock legends Fleetwood Mac are set to return to the UK in 2015 with their ‘On With The Show’ Tour. Currently on the road in the US, the phenomenally successful ‘On With The Show’ tour is presently clocking in at almost 70 shows across the country. Currently performing with their five star lineup, Fleetwood Mac will be joined by returning songbird Christine McVie following a 16 year absence.

The European run will begin on 27th May 2015 at The O2, London and will stop in Amsterdam, Cologne, Antwerp, Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow and Dublin culminating in Leeds on 30th June. Tickets go on general sale on Friday 14th November 2014 from www.livenation.co.uk

During Fleetwood Mac’s 2013 tour, the four members happily welcomed Christine back on the stage during their show at London’s O2 Arena, where she performed their classic “Don’t Stop” and received a wild ovation from the crowd. “It was so comfortable being back onstage with them as if no time had passed, and then we all started talking and it feels like the time is right. I’m really happy,” she commented. “As far as we’re concerned, she’s never really left. We are overjoyed to have Christine back on stage with us,” said the other members of Fleetwood Mac in a joint statement.

Is this one shorter like previous tours?? Anyway first UK than a few concerts Netherlands Belgium Germany and than back to the UK.
Strange but okay..... Antwerp again!!!

[Seasonsofmylife]

Yes!!! Amsterdam again! Hopefully I can make it to Antwerp too!!!

[The dance]

Looking at the schedule i think more dates will follow. Only 10 concerts in 5 weeks of Europe makes no sense. Amsterdam and London will get one extra thats for sure and perhaps some more concerts in France Germany or Denmark don't you think????? looking at the schedule from a few years ago i can not immagine that this is it don't you

[mtkad]

Cool! Any Mick VIP details yet?
