Default Australia?

I don't suppose there is any word, or if anybody would have any thoughts on when FM are likely to come to Australia? I've just booked an overseas trip for the whole of November and now I'm in a constant state of panic...

Either November or December is my best guess.

But Mick did say they could do Glastonbury in 2014, so don't think you're taking LB back that year.

Ah, but Mick is just saying what he wants to happen, hoping it will come true. I suspect he has SN to convince first.

If the money is good, I could see them doing Glastonbury, but it might just be a one-off even if it happens.

Speaking seriously, I do see this tour lasting beyond 2013, but it can't take up all of 2014 or even half of it. I mean, I don't think they'd have an audience to extend it beyond that.

But they seem to be heading to UK/Europe earlier than Unleashed, why do you think it would take longer? I can't see it going past 2013 myself.

Because I don't think they are playing everywhere they can in the United States. I think they could come back here after Europe. They still have left out some of the places they usually hit.

So we have you to blame for 2014 if it happens?

I don't know why, but it would surprise me if they did more dates. They may not be hitting the same places, but aren't they doing about the same number of shows as UL?

No, they're doing less (even counting the overseas dates that I know are still coming). But for comparison's sake, I don't know how it matches up venue size wise. I mean, I'm not sure if they're playing bigger venues this time around or not to make up the difference.

I know for California I really was shocked that they chose only the Hollywood Bowl for Los Angeles. But then with the new round of dates they just added with the Staples Center and San Diego, they now seem to be more on par for what they usually do for Southern California.

Wed 22nd May, 2013 in International News Faster Louder
[Click to see the image]

http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/news/...rmed-by-pixels

Does a pixelated image posted on Live Nation’s Facebook wall confirm that Fleetwood Mac will be touring Australia in 2013?

So far only North American and European dates have been announced for the band’s world tour – their first since 2009 – but Stevie Nicks recently told Rolling Stone they were planning a whopping 15 shows in Australia this year. Now thanks to the magic of Photoshop and some super sleuthing from forum member liquidtopaz3 it looks likely that Live Nation will be announcing that tour imminently.

The administrator of Live Nation’s Facebook page posted the following pixelated image along with a note reading: “I’ve got some news I’m bursting to tell you, but this is all the boss is letting me share with you. I’ll try to gouge some more info for you tomorrow.” It looks suspiciously like Fleetwood Mac’s new EP Extended Play, dontchya think?

Fleetwood Mac’s aptly titled Extended Play contains three new Lindsey Buckingham tracks – ‘Sad Angel’, ‘It Takes Time’ and ‘Miss Fantasy’ – and a revamped version of ‘Without You’, originally written by Stevie Nicks for the Buckingham Nicks project. It’s the Mac’s first new music since 2003’s Say You Will. “Big, long albums don’t seem to be what everybody wants these days,” Nicks said in a recent Billboard interview. But they haven’t entirely ruled out a full-length follow-up. ”[Let’s] see if the world does want more music from us,” Nicks said. “If we get that feeling, that they do want another 10 songs, we can reassess.”
