A second opinion with a clip of the Landslide snafu. IMO she handles it well.

Maybe it was being in Lindsey's home town that made her so nervous...

This bit
The fans seemed pretty excited about the evening as they entered the SAP Center, forming long lines at the merchandise booths to purchase $15 Fleetwood Mac bottle openers, $20 Fleetwood Mac mugs, $15 Fleetwood Mac shot glasses and an assortment of $40 Fleetwood Mac T-shirts.
They're starting to sound more like Fleetwood Kiss.........

And even the SF review commented that -
McVie’s collaboration with Buckingham last year on an album of new material was such a pleasant surprise that it’s disappointing to know that Fleetwood Mac has no intentions of recording new songs again

Love you...

It's a good point. There's very few people I can't predict on this board.

I get surprised once or twice a year. Sometimes by myself.

Thanks for posting. Maybe, they were or are just tired. It happens on tour.

I heard the BTM tour diminished greatly toward the end. It was an amazing show for me that year and I was surprised to hear it peter'd out.

As for the generic, well the 5 are just magic together. Drama helps.

I couldn’t care less who posted the review.

I appreciate the review. He clearly knows the band and nothing he said is unfair. Some reviewers are going to be ok with the new FM. Others are going to be a harder sell.

Thank you goldenbraid for giving us your take as someone who was at the show.

The best part of the review is the slam on the drum solo. I laughed and laughed and laughed.

I've enjoyed both good and bad review, too. I don't think there was anything unfair.

That is the most disgusting, sexist thing you've ever posted. And that's saying a lot.

I've seen at least 5 or 6 nasty reviews in the past few weeks, and I haven't been looking very hard.

So glad we have finally met, and love you too.

Funny how they're accusing Elle of practically the same thing they do all the time. It was a honest review and it agrees with people that actually were at the show, like goldenbraid. Hard to refute that.

And the remainder of the song after the lapse..

Rewind to 2013, with LB at her side and no nerves. The Buckingham Nicks haunts and the illness break would I’m sure have ramped up the pressure of nerves.

Actually after watching the full landslide start to finish, I vastly prefer the vocals of Landslide in the beginning where Stevie is lost and can’t find the key. Her just singing spontaneously is so much better then whatever she considers
To be her “polished, never had a bad night vocally since her vocal coach” voice!

Actually I was going to post that very review. But she beat me to it and at 5 AM no less. It's the only review of FM she's posted from this tour. That's an opinion. I wont be bothered to repeat the old cliche about that.

Really? By journalists? Where?
I'm actually posting this from my hospital bed so I'm thrilled that I still have the strength and wit to piss all of you off with a metaphor that has nothing to do with gender. I'm sure a few posts down someone will call me a misogynist again.

Do the same thing? Post negative reviews of Lindsey's shows? In the Lindsey forum? i don't see anyone do that.
