Default Christine at Wembley?
I was reading this review of the last show they did on Nov 6 and this part caught my eye:


As if things couldn't get any better, Lindsey had just blown us all away with 'Big Love' and Stevie came out of the shadows to do her intro to 'Landslide' - but there was something suddenly very different about her, and her eyes seemed full of tears. Then she let the cat out of the bag - "CHRISTINE MCVIE IS HERE WITH US TONITE" - the whole arena erupted! She then gave a very warm and heartfelt tribute to Chris and said that she wanted this to be a moment of joy and not sadness, but that she missed Chris every day, thought about her every day, and said that she was the most fun lady ever to be around. By the time she dedicated 'Landslide' to Chris, the audience were half in tears, as was Stevie herself, who then went on to deliver such a powerful performance of the song that Lindsey noticeably nodded his head vigorously afterwards in sheer admiration. The audience went wild!


Does anyone have any video of this?!

I saw one of Landslide, but without the dedication. I wanted to see a video that would show me Lindsey. Friday, I could see that Stevie's eyes had tears in them when they began the song, but my view of Lindsey was obscured. I couldn't see his face. I just know that he walked away very quickly after the song was over and I wanted to see if he appeared to be moved.

That performance of Landslide is one of the best I've heard in a long time!

Maybe I'm wrong, but Christine looked rather face-lifted in The Dance. I think after she quit the Mac, she stopped and, consequently, is looking very very very wrinkly.

When did you last see a picture of her? the last one I saw was taken in 2006

I think she looks Ok. She was 63 at the time.

Anyway a few wrinkles never hurt anyone. they show a bit of character

Wow. Lindsey has really added a lot more creepy guitar work to the performance of GDW recently. Sounds great!

I thought I did on the 31st Oct out by the mixing desk but as Stevie didn't dedicate Landslide to her I must have been mistaken.

Landslide was dedicated to her on the 6th Nov and BBC Radio 2 said she was by the mixing desk on that night
