Backing Musiciains On This Tour
Can someone please tell me who the backing musicians were/are, and if they are any good, in the sense, who they played with. Also, I notice the drummer doesn’t bang the skins hard like Mick does or even Wally Reyes, I don’t know, is he playing to a click track ? or is the sound of the drums turned down ? also, in the IG picture posted, some guy said he was upset about having the drummer playing V Sounds, etc. My fav Backing musicians are Brett and Neale and Wally Reyes
Any insight into all this would be appreciated, wished John and Mick could have showed up for 1 show |

Pasted from elsewhere, the band:
Lindsey Buckingham: Guitars, Vocals Christine McVie: Keyboards, Accordian, Vocals Neale Heywood: Guitars, Vocals Jimmy Paxson: Drums Federico Pol: Bass Brett Tuggle: Guitars, Keyboards, Vocals Jimmy has posted regularly on his Instagram, and whilst I know nothing about drums, here is some info as as start (he also commented recently about how he has a Bluetooth iPad there, I think he wrote in case he loses his place etc) https://www.instagram.com/p/BVFbwDNhfF2/ JimmypaxsonGreetings from NYC... I'll be on Jimmy Fallon tonight w/Lindsey Buckingham & Christine McVie... Tune in !!! practicallynickGot time for a pats run? gintymoonCan't wait to watch! besatterlee77@jimmypaxson I absolutely love this setup. I was curious what made you do the v drum route over acoustic? Too many sonic changes? ksjump😍 jimmypaxson@besatterlee77 It was a prerequisite set forth upon their inquiry "Would you be willing to play electronic drums"... The situation is very unique - definitely come catch a show, the tour starts 6/21 ; ) dustinkoesterLooks killer Jimmy! Tear 'em up remoplaRock on bro! tomfreundThat's redonk!! 👍😀 jtoddhallSo freaking cool! 💯💯 julieiselleyAwesome have fun!!!! 👏 wingnutt111Sweet! takuhirano@jimmypaxson @besatterlee77 Yup, when I toured with Lindsey 10+ years ago, he wanted me to play V-Drums within my rig so that we could change kicks, snares, etc for every song. Jimmy! Miss you bro!!! Retox! raul_picsAwesome setup! Just picked up a TD-50 myself, any videos of you playing this available?? toddrondinelliThat looks fun !!! jimmypaxson@takuhirano Exactly ! jimmypaxson@raul_pics - There will be. dwellgirlKiss the other Jimmy for me please! carlyelisebyrd@takuhirano I was there.

What're your thoughts on the cymbals? They look friggen sweet but I'm always leery they'll sound like garbage. beccy.owenHey that's cool! What sort of kit - is it hybrid?

so they use electronic drums at Lindsey's design. Probably why they now have unseen backup drummer along with Mick at Mac shows. boo.

I don't quite understand his obsession with making live performances sound like the recordings....they're two different things. What was so great about the early days was they went into the studio and played many of the basic tracks of songs live....
pretty soon with all these recorded tracks and sh&t you veer into Madonna/Britney Spears territory.....

I'd bet anything that that's all on Mick. He's the "legendary glue" that held FM together for 50 years, so "he don't need no help".

If the backing is all recorded, I guess that certainly keeps all the shows the exact same length.

I was watching a youtube video of Tusk on this tour. I swear I heard Christine sing the backup yell "TUSK" but she was nowhere near a microphone. Maybe it was the backing musicians but it sounded like Christine. Its too hard to tell watching on youtube.
I also hate all the pre-recorded and programmed stuff.

For my money, one of the most obvious fake/backing tracks (apart from the bottle percussion on IN MY WORLD, that you hear SO clearly, yet no one plays) is on HOLD ME. The "Come on and" parts that Lindsey sings. They are incredibly LOUD, lower and clearer than everything else amongst the barrage of backing tracks. He "mouths" those words to the mic, but it's 100% obvoius that it's pre-recorded and he's just singing along to them for the audience's sake.
I have a feeling if we listened to these backing tracks WITHOUT the live band playing, they'd still feel pretty substantial and full. It's almost to the point where the LIVE musicians are filling out the backing tracks, not vice versa. |

Well, back in 2013 at the last European-show in Amsterdam, they had problems with the soundboard and had to get some spare parts. Show started about an hour later. They skipped some songs and intro's. Cannot remember if the arrangements differed from other shows though.
