LOS ANGELES, Dec 03, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Legendary supergroup Fleetwood Mac will be embarking on their first concert tour in five years on March 1st at Pittsburgh's Mellon Arena and will include all the Mac's many greatest hits from over the course of one of rock's most enduring and influential bands of our time.
"We love our band and think the title of the tour "UNLEASHED" perfectly describes how we all feel when we get on stage together -- especially in 2009. We're so happy to get back out on the road, perform everyone's favorite songs and see our fans," said the band in a joint statement.
Tickets for the Live Nation produced tour go on sale to the public on December 15th at http://www.LiveNation.com and ticketmaster.com. American Express Cardmembers will have early access to tickets beginning December 8th at 10am local time through December 14th at 10pm local time at http://www.ticketmaster.com, excluding Uncasville, Ottawa and Montreal. American Express presale tickets for the Albany, NY show are available at http://www.tickets.com
The first 16 dates of the historic "UNLEASHED" tour will include stops in New York, Boston, Washington and Montreal, it was confirmed today by Live Nation, the tour's national promoter (tour dates listed below). Fleetwood Mac, the multi-Grammy (R) award winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees will continue the "UNLEASHED" tour throughout the Spring and Summer. Additional dates to be announced shortly.
In other great Fleetwood Mac news, the iconographic 'RUMOURS' CD (certified Diamond (R) signifying sales of over 10 million units by the RIAA) is scheduled to be re-released as part of a special CD/DVD boxed set on Reprise Records in conjunction with the tour dates. The boxed set will include previously unreleased tracks recorded during the making of 'RUMOURS' as well as a DVD component with never before seen footage of the band.
I Love All Access to provide a variety of VIP packages for the tour including premium seats.

^ Me neither. And "Unleashed"? Sorry but that cracks me up!

Ooh, and I just read the stuff about getting previously unreleased stuff. Cool.

I know. Unleashed from what? Are they being held hostage over on Maui or something?

What else is there as far as unreleased tracks? I don't want another version of Mick The Screecher. I'd rather have some Mirage outtakes. As for the DVD portion, I'm expecting a nice upgrade of a lot of the stuff that's already floating around out there in the trade community.

Thanks goodness they've decided not to fiddle with the fukcing fan club for this again and have put in in the hands of the experienced. It's going to be expensive though.

Kanata is a suburb of Ottawa. Just as Rosemont is the Chicago date, Auburn Hills/Detroit, etc.

And it looks like my prediction came true. Seems that the top ticket will be $150 or less, not that that's exactly "Free" but they're smart enough not to charge totally outrageous prices like THe Eagles, Stones ETC.
