Maybe the other acts you mentioned have larger audiences/higher turnout....or are just plain smart and want to keep things engaging without having to play same old same old same order for 50 gigs in a row.

The Fleetwood Mac machine does not want anything distracting or taking your attention away from the Rumours cash cow...

i've seen more than 10 different bands in concert last year. practically every one of them mixes their setlist a bit. it's not just Bruce. not just Dave Matthews. or Grateful Dead. some mix up their setlist more, some less. but they all change it somewhat from show to show, and they all gave a great fully polished show, it's not like their performances were crappy (like what i've heard of GD). some bands change between playing 2 different albums in full on consecutive nights.

When did you do this and is it on youtube? What was the date and venue and year-I'd love to see it!

I guess the songs I'd really like to hear are "Love in Store" and "Think About Me".

"Angel" gets my vote by a long way. Its one of my favourite songs, ever.
I'd love to here it live again.

Stevie looked like she had an absolute blast performing that song. So much so that she hasn't performed the song once in the past 30 years. She must not be able to remember the Tusk tour, like Mirage and Tango in the Night....lol

DITTO!!!!!!!!! Those are the Christine songs I'd like to hear.

From Lindsey- Eyes of the World & I Know I'm Not Wrong. Those two come and go but I never get tired of them.

Stevie- SOTM but with that 3rd verse added and with the fire she had back when she sang it in the Mirage days. I'd take Straight Back too. Something different.

I think Love In Store sounded great when they performed it live.

Yeah, SOTM...I wasn't a fan of the arrangement. Stevie's vocals are there, but the sound, Lindsey's guitar for the chorus, the unnecessarily added "Sisters" over the instrumental...it just didn't rock or have much life to it.

I don't know if there is something I must hear. I've seen Lindsey solo, Stevie solo, and the band, so I've heard the standards. I'd just like to hear something new, surprising even, that makes this as memorable as my past concerts--oh, besides the fact that Christine is back and I can't wait to hear her songs live for the first time. I guess I must hear Little Lies...I just love how that song features all three vocalists. In fact, I think I appreciated Stevie's voice there more than in her own songs; weirdly, that's how much it stayed with me, her echo of Christine's words.

^Me too. Love both of those choices.

The Chain is a must for me.

Additionally I'd love to hear Seven Wonders, Hold Me, Angel, Monday Morning, & You Make Lovin Fun.

thanks elle,that was cool especially knowing the story behind it!

They need to finally do crystal live. Especially with Chris back to play the whole keyboard solo at the end. Just for the simple fact it's johns damned favorite song! Why don't they acknowledge that and play it for him. Really they should've played in 2013 instead of say goodbye. Or even better instead of without you. And we still could've gotten the endless stories with crystal in that spot.

I agree 100%. I think a lot of people know this song too--FM pretends that the audience only knows the songs they play over and over again. Maybe they can't decide how to perform it...or Lindsey doesn't see it as one of his songs and neither does Stevie. So split the difference, do it as a duet for one of the encores, do it for John.
