Default Fleetwood Mac to Debut New Lineup at iHeartRadio Music Festival - Sept 21 and 22

The iHeartRadio Music Festival, to be held September 21 and 22 at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena, has added Fleetwood Mac to a lineup that includes Justin Timberlake, Carrie Underwood, Mariah Carey, Imagine Dragons, Jason Aldean, Sam Smith, Luke Bryan, Kelly Clarkson, Shawn Mendes, Rae Sremmurd and Logic, among many more. The two-day event will be hosted by Ryan Seacrest.

It will be Fleetwood Mac’s first time performing with new band members Mike Campbell and Neil Finn, and the group’s debut performance at the festival, which is geared at the broad audience listening to iHeartMedia’s over 800 radio stations. The announcement arrives ahead of a tour that kicks off in October. Member Lindsey Buckingham left the group in April. It was announced that former Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers guitarist Campbell and Crowded House singer Finn would fill in for Buckingham.

The iHeartRadio festival has traditionally included a veteran act on its lineup. In previous years, Aerosmith, Queen + Adam Lambert and Billy Idol have held that slot. This year, Lynyrd Skynyrd will also be featured.

“It is an honor to be performing at the iHeartRadio Music Festival for our very first time,” said Stevie Nicks. “The beauty of an event like this is that it is a true representation of the power of radio. It’s an opportunity for artists across all genres to share one stage and what we all love most — music!”

The iHeartRadio Music Festival will be broadcast live across the iHeartMedia network to more than 150 markets and on the CW Network’s CWTV.com and The CW App. A two-night television special is scheduled for Oct. 7 and Oct. 8.

The 2018 iHeartRadio Music Festival is co-produced by John Sykes and Tom Poleman.

SWEET! I am so looking forward to hearing how they sound. I suppose they will do a classic song...but it would be so great if they would perform something new and a classic. Crossing fingers...

you are cute.

everyone said he didn't look at Stevie and how wrong that was, that was the "hissy fit".

but everyone said his performance was his usual 200%. something that cannot be said for every other member of that 5. that's why they have to play iheartradio thingy now. that's one thing they CAN say they'd never do if LB was still in the band.

The bottom line is you’re just here to try to stir the pot again. Go back to the rumors board where you are with all your cronies and you can talk bad about everybody as much as you want. It’s old.

John - no mater what you post, there will be a negative response from the "Lindsey as victim" crowd here. I'm looking forward to seeing the new lineup and also seeing Lindsey on his next tour.

In addition to the T-Mobile Arena lineup, the iHeartRadio Music Fesitval's Daytime Stage at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds will feature performances by Dua Lipa, 5 Seconds of Summer, Lil Uzi Vert, Dustin Lynch, Bazzi, Belly, Bobby Bones and the Raging Idiots and Greta Van Fleet.

The festival will broadcast live to iHeartRadio stations throughout the weekend, with the CW Network providing a video livestream on its website. The CW will also broadcast a two-day special on the iHeartRadio Festival on October 7th and October 8th.

"There's no other concert with a lineup as diverse at the iHeartRadio Music Festival. We pride ourselves on inviting the most eclectic lineup of headliners you'll ever see on one stage," said iHeartMedia chief programming officer Tom Poleman said in a statement. "This Festival has the best artists from every style of music heard on iHeartRadio stations across America, giving both artists and our listeners a once-in a lifetime experience."

Tickets for the eighth annual iHeartRadio Music Festival go on sale to the general public on June 15th. Radio listeners will also have the opportunity to win tickets via on-air contests throughout the summer.

LOL!

Sam Smith is playing the same night. In case you forgot, he got sued by Tom Petty because “Stay With Me” was too much like “I Won’t Back Down.”

Better still, Jason Aldean is playing that night, too. He did the cold open on Saturday Night Live after the Vegas shootings, which was the same week Tom died, and played “I Won’t Back Down.” Sam Smith was the musical guest that night.

Poor Sam can’t catch a break.

Saw this this morning and thought, we will at least have a chance to see how they look and sound before the big tour gets underway. I still haven't bought tickets. So this will be a good way to decide if I want to go to the Pittsburgh show or not.

I'm getting excited! Great timing for the band, a month before the tour actually begins. I hope they sing 3-4 songs at least!

As for Elle's side comments about this concert being a comedown from the classic shows East and West, that's just silly. Wasn't Journey one of the acts at the classic shows? No offense to Journey fans intended, but the HeartRadio show lineup sounds JUST as impressive, if not more so, than the classic shows.

That's an...interesting lineup to throw 'Fleetwood Mac' in the middle of.
But it'll probably help their ticket sales.
