Default 10/09/2013 Antwerpen, Belgium

Making my way back for a bit to talk about tonight's show. To me Stevie seemed a bit off. She forgot where she was in her Without You story a couple of times. At one point her mind went completely blank and she had to have Lindsey step in to finish the story. Both times they walked out together they seemed to be discussing something. Before World Turning she came out shaking her head. I heard her say to Lindsey "No, no, I don't think so." to which Lindsey shrugged his shoulders in a 'what are you going to do about it' way. There was definitely something going on in my opinion.

Furthermore I thought the show was good, solid. But Stevie seemingly being on another planet was a bit of a turn off.

The highlight of the evening was being escorted to the front of the stage, right underneath Lindsey's mic, at the start of the show. I had heard about them scoping out young, attractive women, but I didn't think they would do it in Antwerpen, seeing the entire venue was seated. But hey, you didn't hear me complaining! Even though it was a little disturbing to see Lindsey flirting with a couple of half-naked girls next to me that were closer to his children's age than his own.

I'll post pictures and videos tomorrow.

Sounds like the show was great and so was your night.

I've already given my opinion about security guys escorting young woman to the front of the stage so they can stand in front of Lindsey's mic. It's weird how this seems to keep happening over and over again at each venue, I'm surprised that Lindsey hasn't put a stop to it yet? I guess the security guards are Lindsey fans and are just trying to keep him happy, or trying to get some phone numbers for themselves. (in case you can't tell I'm being facetious)

Can't wait to see you pictures and video's.

They didn't do Silver Springs?? That's odd, do you know what song they replaced it with?

my understanding is it was just dropped, the same as at NJ show.

No, they didn't do Silver Springs. My guess is that her voice wasn't up to it. I caught her signaling to Mick at one point that her throat was bothering her. I guess that's probably part of the reason why she seemed off. But she wasn't feeling Lindsey either, she all but pushed him off of her after the Sara hug.

danaX6, it is a thrill to have you back with us but it's a shame you had to attend the one show where Stevie might have been having sore throat issues.

Nice review. Stevie was indeed a bit more off then on monday.

I was in block 117 on the tiers, saw a couple of young woman in front of Lindsey dancing and dancing and dancing. Having a blast, was that you?

My blok was rather quiet and very lame. On monday upfront there was much more party...although my feet still hurt from monday, I was glad i had a seat.

The show was fine, they started a bit later then monday. But I think there is some kind of venue-deadline of 11 o clock. After GYOW I told my neighbours that there were 4 songs to come....but there were only three. Maybe that is te reason they skipped Silver Springs...

Also I noticed that a whole bunch of people hardly new a lot of songs. I was asked if I'm so Afraid was from the new E.P.

To me the scripted speeches seemed to be no different then on monday, inluding the blackouts of Stevie's.

Well anyway, my downloads of the Amsterdam are complete. Time to take a listen

Male. One word.

I would love to hear about the reason to Silver Springs beeing dropped. Sometimes I wish Fleetwood Mac (or rather the management) would use *some* social media to adress things.

I think the rambling and forgetful nature of the "Without You" story is intentional to inject some humor into the show. It's also done to play up the Buckingham Nicks drama, the whole "we don't seem to agree about when this song was written" thing. If you look at old YouTube clips from the tour, the routine is nearly the same at every show.
