Thumbs up Belated Happy Birthday John McVie

I meant to post this yesterday.
Happy Birthday to one of the founding members of Fleetwood Mac and one of the best bassists that exists. Sometimes the quiet ones get over looked. But your playing is not over looked. Simply amazing.

I know this is a stretch. But the Mac played my hometown of Pittsburgh on John McVie's birthday November 26 1979. Was anyone at this concert or know someone that was? Did they sing Happy Birthday from the stage?

During the On With The Show tour in 2014 I saw something that may have never happened before on stage. Before the encores, Mick was introducing the band members and of course making a fuss over Chris's return to the band. Mick forgot to introduce John and the band started to play Dont Stop. Mick suddenly stops playing and realizes he forgot to introduce John. He apologizes and says he has been introducing band members since the start and never forgot his side kick John. Chris got in her humor and then said, "can we start now?" because the song was interrupted.
