I agree on GDW and Songbird. What a way to end. I totally dug IKINW and Silver Springs.

Dutch railway was a big spoiler, I could have been there an hour earlier, we would have had more time for our meetup, Gaius. But at least (at last) we met. Cool. Very cool.

Default Second Amsterdam Night

Ok, I caught myself on mondaymorning that I checked Dutch 'Marktplaats' (Ebay) to see what the demand for tickets was ... My legs were still hurting from the night before.

But I left home at the same time as on sunday for Amsterdam and it was a bit more crowded. After a good 90 minute wait, doors opened and rushed in (pit-stop at lockers, restroom, coins-machine and the bar) and I ended up a few meters further from the stage. Now I was at Christine's side (6/7th row) , while I was at Mr. Buckingham's mike )kinda 2nd row) on sunday.

The sound was a bit better then the night before and I thought the band was 'on it' a bi more as well. Not that sunday was bad, but as I sad earlier: a bit routine.

My highlights (in no particular order): IKINW, GDW, Little Lies, GYOW, So Afraid, Second Hand News. Songbird moved me a lot more too. Maybe it was because I could now actually see Christine. Sunday I just looked at a grand piano with the top of her head above it :-)

Alas, next saturday I will be in Antwerp as well. Not on the floor (too bad) to relive it all over again.

Glad you enjoyed this one even more. I hope Antwerp is even better. We want quality to keep going up, not down.

Yes, that piano is a Chris blocker.

The second show was a lot more spot on. Chris was less shaky on her vocals, Stevie did a great job on GDW and Silver Springs and was as good as show one. Lindsey seemed more focused, more precise in his playing. The show sparked slightly more. But that may 31st Songbird was to die for.

Yes. When Christine is really "into" the song it is perfection. The "but most of all, I wish it from myself" gets me every time...especially in this performance.

I still think June the 1st they were pretty low on energy or something. I dunno. It lacked THE FLEETWOOD MAC charm. Especially with Stevie. Christina was fine.

Thank you so much for your comments. I prefer to use old fashioned digital camera instead of smart phone. It pays off
