That makes sense. Mirage tour lasted just two months. He probably was still tired or saturated from the long Mac tours of the 70s, though 4 years was enough time to recover.

Wasn't the Mirage tour only 18 shows? But Tusk was insanely long.
These days, very few make much money off of selling records. Touring is where you make bank now.

Best FM seat I ever had. 5th row center. I was in absolute heaven. They were at the height of their game, too, IMO.

I would’ve loved to be able to have seen them back in the ‘75-‘82 days. I think Mirage would’ve been perfect because of how the classic set was rounded out with Hold Me, Gypsy, the Tusk songs, in addition to the core from ‘75 and ‘77. Damn my parents for not taking me to a Mirage show for my 2nd birthday!!!

Their voices were at the top of their game. Their energy was at the top. Their looks were at the top. It was their peak for me personally.

Hey, I was 13. Don't hold it against me.

(Trivia - watching the Tusk doc outtakes right now....)

I was 16 in 1982. Still in college and didn't work yet. I couldn't afford a trip to the US
