They did the same thing back in December 2008. The first round of dates for 2009 went on sale in early December.

Hollywood Bowl, Saturday May 25, 2013. That's the one I need to get on top of. The Hollywood Bowl is always so expensive anyway. It's going to be a fortune.

I agree! I was hoping the tour would be announced in December and "on sale" dates in January/February. A bit anxious about the dates, would like to hit Hollywood, Boston, Tampa, Orlando, Lauderdale and maybe couple more...
Anyways definetly looking forward to it.

Sorry to hear that! Best wishes for her -- and for you getting to see a show or more!

For real! There is just no excuse for this now with Photoshop. Look at Lindsey's SWS album cover and promo shots. They can make 'em all look Rumours young again. lol

I am 100% convinced that all of these brokers have ins with ticketmaster and livenation. Why do good seats show up on scalping sites and then a week before the show they are gone and on ticketmaster? How they have not been sued is beyond me!

Pearl Jam tried to sue TicketScam and they failed because other musicians/ artists and people in the industry get kickbacks from TicketScam's exclusive contracts, so everyone wins....except the fans. Not only can fans not get the best seats (without paying out the arse) but the tickets fees are nothing short of ridiculous. Until fans stop supporting the live shows then it will continue, and that's not going to happen. The concert industry is in a sad state.

I've said it a hundred times they do and the ARTIST is in on it now Ticketmaster has cut them out and will sell in pairs only called ,Official Platinum Seats that can be as high as 6 times the face value


they all do this , and the "resellers know in advace what seats they will be given

http://www.vulture.com/2011/05/katy_...the_right.html

If Company elects to use "Resellers", Promoters shall hold tickets for each Performance, in quantities and in locations as designated by the Personal Manager, for distribution to the public through "Resellers". "Resellers" shall mean any ticket agency, ticket re-seller or other so-called "secondary market" seller of tickets (such as, by way of example only, StubHub in the United States) who sell tickets to the general public. Promoter expressly acknowledges and agrees that Company shall be entitled to retain, for Company's sole account, such portion of the proceeds from sales by Resellers.

Default The Dates!

After a three-year absence, the legendary rockers embark on a 34-city tour starting April 4 in Columbus, Ohio.

Story Highlights
Tickets go on sale Dec. 14 at LiveNation.com for the band's first shows since 2009
No album is planned, but a few new songs may be part of the set list
"You come to terms with the fact that no one's particularly interested in hearing anything too new," says Lindsey Buckingham
4:14PM EST December 3. 2012 - Hungry for a big Mac splurge? After a three-year absence, Fleetwood Mac embarks on a 34-city North American tour starting April 4 in Columbus, Ohio. Tickets for the first run of shows go on sale Dec. 14 at LiveNation.com.

The band, founded in 1967, is celebrating the 35th anniversary of its trailblazing Rumours, which sold 40 million copies worldwide, held Billboard's No. 1 spot for 31 weeks and spawned top 10 hits Dreams, Don't Stop, Go Your Own Way and You Make Loving Fun.

Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks, who joined in 1975, and namesakes Mick Fleetwood and John McVie last toured in 2009 and haven't released a studio album since 2003's Say You Will.

INTERVIEW: Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham

Yet new tunes may be shoehorned into a set list packed with classics.

"There were some tracks John, Mick and I cut with Stevie in mind while she was on the road," Buckingham says. "It's the most Fleetwood Mac-sounding stuff I've heard in a long time. We've been talking about releasing an EP, but I don't know how these moving parts will fit together yet."

In light of the band's deep catalog, the singer/guitarist isn't concerned about a second consecutive tour without a studio album.

"We'd be OK for one more round," he says. "People do want to hear that body of work and be transported to a certain time. The older you get and the longer the band has been around, you come to terms with the fact that no one's particularly interested in hearing anything too new. It's about what you do with what you've got."

Nicks envisions performing hits, rarities and maybe a couple of migrants, particularly the war-themed Soldier's Angel, a duet with Buckingham from her 2011 solo album, In Your Dreams.

"It's become a standard in my set, and I get a standing ovation every night," Nicks says. "Fans might like seeing Lindsey and I sing it. And it gives me a chance to ask people to help veterans who are so young and so messed up. I turn into an eighth-grade teacher."

Opting to extend her solo tour, Nicks was a holdout when the band wanted to hit the road early this year.

"I had to put my foot down and say, 'I'm not touring with you in 2012,' and it wasn't a very popular idea," she says. "I always think it's good for Fleetwood Mac to be away for three years. Two years is like, well, 'I just saw you.' My feeling was, let 2013 be the year of Fleetwood Mac and make it an exciting event."
