No one, but me, I guess. I count "Stand Back" as a Fleetwood Mac song. 1st off due to the same reason as above; but, mainly because I've seen them play it many, many more times than I've seen Stevie with her solo band.

I count it too. I was just kidding around because there's another thread where people are complaining that it should not be in the set because it's not a Fleetwood Mac song. I was arguing that having it in there makes as much sense as some of the other choices.

No one counts Rhiannon, Dreams, Landslide, Sara, Gypsy, Gold Dust Woman, etc. as Stevie solo songs just because she's performed them so often in solo shows. |

And Prince wrote the music! They're stuck in the "it works, so we have to keep doing it" vein. I think fans would die if they'd swap it out with EO17, or SDMHA.

Those are fine reasons if that's how you feel, but the point I was making (albeit in another thread) is that it makes no sense to complain about Stand Back not being a Fleetwood Mac song when you never see similar complaints about Go Insane or The Farmer's Daughter. |

As far as it having been a long time ago, that could also be said about Farmer's Daughter, but it assimilates into the FM sound better than Stand Back does and it's also part of their history and the band makes it their own with their harmonies. I also think fans appreciate what they're paying homage to. I didn't complain about I Need to Know being in Stevie's set list for the same reason. It was always there, so I just shrugged and I know she wanted to honor TP. But I have complained and will continue to complain about Rock and Roll being in her set list until I die. All non-FM songs are not equal and there would be no reason for people to make the same argument about all of the songs. Stand Back doesn't sound like FM and FM doesn't try to make it sound like them either. They adopt Farmer's Daughter and incorporate it into their style. They don't do that with Stand Back and it retains its "sore thumb" status. I want SB in the setlist. I think the energy is needed. They play it as part of a trio fireball and I think that trio is the highpoint of the concert. So, I see why they keep it, but I don't wonder why others don't think it belongs. I see what they mean, because of the way it sounds. I don't think EFO sounds like them either and I'd be thrilled to have it in the setlist as well. Michele |
