I think I' destined never to see Stevie solo unless she comes to Europe again, which she hasn't done since 1989! Sigh... Maybe when I finally stop studying and get a proper job I can act on my plan to move to the US, that will make things easier!

These are fantastic articles. I wasn't there that night, but I can't tell you how many events I've attended at the Crisler Arena. That makes these especially wonderful to have.
I had to laugh when they remarked upon Stevie's bleeting. So, the crowd enjoyed NTF, eh? People on here have said the same thing about preferring the band's harder, unpolished live sound back then, to the "perfect" album concoctions. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Thanks so much for uploading these. Michele |

10th night of The Tusk Tour
November 10,1979 New Haven, Connecticut Venue: Veterans Memorial Coliseum I was at this show. This was my first time seeing Fleetwood Mac and Stevie live. I was 17 years old, almost 18. There is an audio bootleg of this show available, but I don't have it. My memories of this show: Buying the ticket for this concert I had to skip a few classes in high school. Then I went to school with my ticket. I showed off the ticket to some of the "cool" kids and one of em asked if he could hold it. Then he didn't want to give it back, but obviously, he did. I attended the show with two good friends and we had ****ty floor seats almost near the back. We had to stand on our seats most of the show to see anything at all. In those days there were no giant screens to watch in case you couldn't see the performers. My biggest memory of this night was straining to see, standing on my tippy toes. I sat down during most of Lindsey's songs cause that was the only time I could rest. During Rhiannon Stevie tried to hit the high notes but couldn't. Even then I was comparing her live vocals to those on the two bootlegs I had at the time which were 8-25-77 Live in Las Vegas and 1975's Albatross, But Not Around My Neck Please albums. During Sara someone threw a giant red balloon up towards the stage and Stevie caught it. She held onto it for a while and then tossed it back into the crowd. Angel was a highlite for me and so was Sister's Of The Moon but honestly I can't remember anything about her performance of Sister's. After the show we hoped we could meet the band and so we hung out for about an hour and then when we realized that wasn't going to happen we went to look for the car. In our excitement upon arrival none of us thought to look to see what section we were parked in in the parking garage so it took us another hour of walking around just to find the car. It was also a little drizzly that night so we were a bit wet also. From Billboard Magazine November 10,1979 Venue: Veterans Memorial Coliseum Headliners: Fleetwood Mac Opening Act: Danny Douma Produced by: Cross Country Concerts Ticket price scale: $10.00-$14.50 Total ticket sales: 9,635 Sellout Gross Receipts: $135,647.00 This photo was taken that night. Not by me though. |

Mmh, question : in the Live Wire, the journalist says that they did Storms. I thought Stevie said, this year, that they never did it before...Am I wrong ?

That's what some reviewers referred to as DREAMS back in those days. (The one's who didn't know better)

I was to see them live at Spectrum in Philadelphia on 11/21/79 but my ticket got ruined by a glass of spilled water. I never got to them during the Tusk tour.
