No problem! Enjoy and have a safe trip home! I am still kicking myself for not going. Hopefully next year.

LOL - I love your signature - that's my new favorite ad-lib of Stevie's - "you say hey baby!"

Thanks for the info - isn't that weird? I mean, hasn't Mick been doing that like forever? It's just now bothering her?!

Stephanie..."Stevie"...all the same...all the same.

He did that when I saw them here in the states, but I've also sensed from watching vids of that part of the show, that she's not too fond of him doing that, so her mouthing "Stevie" sorta confirms it.. I guess. I'm pretty sure he does it on the "Live in Boston" DVD as well. Haven't watched it in awhile. Not that she doesn't like her name, it's just that she's always been known in the music world, as 'Stevie Nicks'. (jmo) I love the name Stephanie, and always have.. long before I knew who she was. I do think the name, Stevie, is cute though.

I'd ignore her if I was him. That's the name your dad wanted, so just grin and bear it. Maybe she thought Mick forgot her name all together and wanted to make sure he didn't call her "Wanda."

Thanks for the great review. I love hearing that cameras are not only tolerated but welcome. No more trying to hide a Canon in my underwear.

I love that always changing of Stand Back. It´s really nice to see that Stevie can change it still, and everytime I hear the new "version" I think it´s better than the last one

.

Bad view, but good sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtiB9ywCksY

I don´t know why, but perforamnces of Stand Back was always better with Fleetwood Mac than her solo. I think she puts lot more into it when she is with FM...

And the Unleashed versionS are great, I can´t say best to compare with all those tours since 1983, that can´t be compared. But it´s really awesome, it´s not that 80s disco or pop song (which I love too) but it´s great quick rock song, and I like that too very much. At least to compare with all those shows during tours since 2005 to 2008 it´s definitely best. I really thought that she will not change that... but she did

. Thanks Stevie. Nice to know that you are still making something new.

It´s interesting, because I didn´t mention any changes of all other songs in Unleashed setlist during tour. But this song changed few times.

I was at the concert last night; my first ever Mac show.
I thought it was beyond awesome! I loved every minute. Having seen so many comments on here about Stevie not singing well at certain shows and looking unhappy I was ready to be disappointed by her and to have my dreams shattered a little.

But she was magical! She looked beautiful, radiant even. She sang very well and looked delighted to be there on stage. She interacted with the audience with good humour and was in turns flirty, fun and gracious.
She hypnotized me many years ago when I was a little schoolgirl and I'm so glad she didn't let me down last night.

Yes, Stevie still rocks!

What can I say about Lindsey that hasn't been said already. He is indeed a guitar god, Fleetwood mac's genius and maestro as Mick says at the end. He dominated the show from start to finish and deserves all the accolades he is getting.

Mick and John - watching them last night I fell in love with both!

I've seen some big gigs this year featuring many a megastar. This was, without question, the very BEST.

I'm debating whether I should go next Friday - I'd love to, I'm just afraid it might not be as perfect next time.

And, my added bonus was that I met Ledge legend David Mn. Truly a legend!
Also the lovely Gypsy Rhiannon and wonderful Tommer. Thanks guys for making a special evening even better!

It was Chris, but before I realised who it was she went in the stage door. I met her on the way out after the show. I dashed outside quickly as soon as Mick bashed the last drum of the night. I seemed to be one of the first people to exit. I was very lucky to meet Christine as she was about to leave in a car. I ran over to the car and just asked if I could have an autograph. She said sure if your quick as she wants to leave before the crowds start exiting the theatre. I wasn't really ready as my albums were in my bag and my pen somewhere in there also! I scrambled about in there trying to find the pen! She was very warm, kind and patient with me. I was the only one that seemd to recognise her!? Eventually got my self sorted and she signed 2 albums and said Thanks to me and I gave her a hug and peck on the cheek. She was lovely and sweet. A VERY special moment. After that she was gone before anyone else noticed who it was. I was on a high from that meeting and then I went inside the theatre to meet Mick. He is just the nicest person ever. Again. so patient with everybody. A true gentleman.

How wonderful!
