Well, aren't you going to hop in there anyway, to play Lindsey's guitar? Just remember to ground yourself first before you touch it. It is electric.

In the beginning of the tour they said that after this year and Uk/ Australia that they might set up a couple more US shows...do you think they might still do this??? Obviously there's been no mention now but do you think they might change their minds and maybe do a few more US shows....I'm so having withdrawal....its been since June...got see them again!

No direct flights yet. I did the trip a few times and it was 22-23 hours--two 11 hour flights (London to Singapore or HK, fuel stop, on to Sydney). I have read that a few airlines (Virgin for one) plan to offer a non-stop service in 2011 or 2012. The flight time will be 17 hours.

I've done the trip once since moving from London to the USA and I think it was roughly the same--15 hrs from LA to Sydney and roughly 5-6 hrs for me to get to LA.

It's such a long journey (esp with children!) and the time difference so painful. It's a wonderful trip though-

Ive seen Fleetwood Mac 66 times now. 125 times if you include Stevie and Lindsey, and Peter Green too. First year I saw then was 1995 a the Rock Fest in Cadott Wisconsin.

Aren't they setting up seats on top of the moat? Anyway, if not, this isn't the first time I've stood in water for a show, e.g., Jones Beach 2007. Must. Pack. Antibiotics.

Boils my blood..
Text me next time, you hear? I get those lonely moments too ... *sniffle*
