^^Who took that photo?

I'm very intrigued to find out what kind of setlist he will do. I mean, will he do acoustic-y songs or will he do Go Your Own Way--acoustic. Part of me is intrigued by that notion, part of me disturbed (as when Eric Clapton all but ruined Layla by doing it Unplugged). Really, he should parlay this into a solo Unplugged special and CD. He might beat Stevie to the solo Grammy.

I'd personally like for Lindsey to do a full career retrospective in this style: almost like, here's "a boy and his guitar: a life' journey" or something.

initially, i was sure he will just do a selection of his songs that are acoustic-y, and that's how i and others put together our wish lists in the beginning of this thread. but reading through what you wrote here, and Hejira a while ago, and looking at this poster, i think you guys might be right - seems like we may have a chance of hearing at least several of his non-acoustic rockers reworked into acoustic versions, possibly in the unplugged vein.



either way, the time before the first show and before we find out the actual setlist seems to almost be the most interesting and intriguing - b/c each one of us can dream up our wish list and hope he will do full 2 hrs!

i really like this idea - plus now when he has his own label it would probably give him the freedom to release a box set or a career retrospective of whatever songs he wants without being dependent on WB who i'm sure own the rights to the versions they released. (blanking out now on which band did this? recorded songs spanning their whole career live to go around the label and be able to release them on their own b/c they didn't like what label wanted to do?)

also, these places - looking at the list of performers, many less known than LB and some doing just acoustic sets - all look like that might work nicely:

World Cafe Live - Wilmington
500 Market St.
Wilmington DE


The Hamilton Live
600 14th Street, N.W.
Washington, DC

Baltimore Sound Stage
124 Market Place
Baltimore MD


Theatre of Living Arts
334 South St.
Philadelphia PA

B.B. King Blues Club & Grill
243 W. 42nd Street
New York NY


and of course, did i mention:

The Fillmore Silver Spring
8656 Colesville Road
Silver Spring MD
ok, i have no idea where i got this list of venues, but this is what i posted here over a month ago, before any east coast venues were announced...

look at this list - it was supposed to be a list of venues that would be easily accessible to me. he will be playing in 3 out of these 6!?!?!?!

i don't know whether i just didn't get enough sleep so i'm imagining this or what?! i wish i could remember where i got this list...

i was looking at all dates @nickslive has posted of this summer 2012 tour so far (i wish LB's website would have his past tour dates archived some place!)... and thinking back of when we first heard this solo/alone tour might be happening, and how worried we were that he will do just a few southern CA dates and end it there. but - there are already MORE THAN 60 DATES so far, and a promise of another leg to come!!!!!

[Declining Interviews? Really? How far in advance was the request made?]
http://www.encorepub.com/welcome/one-man-show/

One-Man Show, Encore Repub

Lindsey Buckingham and his guitar come to Greenfield
by: Alex Pompliano

Lindsey Buckingham
Wed., Aug. 1st, 7 p.m.
Tickets: $35-$75
Greenfield Lake Amphitheatre

For many, Lindsey Buckingham will always be known as the man who broke Stevie Nicks’ heart. This highly speculated piece of gossip would have easily been forgotten over the decades if it hadn’t given birth to the 1977 mega-selling masterpiece “Rumours,” the confessional introspection of the songwriters of Fleetwood Mac.

It’s the album that will always define Fleetwood Mac—which isn’t necessarily a bad thing (it’s the eighth highest selling album of all time). The band would go on to sell more than 100 million records in their initial decade-long run, boosted by Buckingham-penned hits such as “Go Your Own Way” and “Big Love.” One of the quintet’s three singer-songwriters, Buckingham also handled the production on much of Fleetwood’s catalog, which helped cement the archetypal, breezy sound of 1970s Los Angeles.

Today, Buckingham works mostly solo. His 30-year long career, since he hastily split from Fleetwood Mac in the late ‘80s (despite a few reunion tours in the aughts), has yielded six albums; his most recent record “Seeds We Sow” was released in late 2011. Continuing with the technical wizardry he mastered in the ‘70s, Buckingham wrote, produced and engineered the entire album himself, as well as played most of the instruments.

“Seeds We Sow” shows Buckingham’s effortless, continued growth as a songwriter—a feat for a musician at 62—and reassures fans he is not trying to recapture the music of his past. The album emphasizes Buckingham’s signature frenzied fingerpicking in a surprisingly rough-around-the-edges production, eons away from the polished sound of the Mac.

Earlier in the summer, he also released a second live album, “Songs from the Small Machine,” which shows the songwriter in complete control of his craft and the audience. However, no matter his many solo releases or tours, there will always be a demand for a Fleetwood Mac reunion. Buckingham has said while the band will likely reconvene next year to tour or record, it wouldn’t be right to call it a reunion.

“We don’t think of ourselves as ever having broken up,” Buckingham told NPR last year. “We think of ourselves as a working band, but also a band that survives by taking significant periods of time apart—and this is one of those times.”

Stevie Nicks corroborated these statements to CBS earlier in the month, saying FM will indeed begin touring again in 2013, with rehearsals due to start in January. Beforehand, Wilmington will be treated to Buckingham up, close and personal with a stop on his “Seeds We Sow” tour at Greenfield Lake Amphitheater on August 1st. For this tour, Buckingham has stripped his music down to its roots by ditching the backing-band and performing an intimate one-man show to showcase his distinctive guitar playing and captivating voice.

Regarding the new tour, he said in an official statement through his website: “As I’ve grown as an artist, I’ve gotten more and more in touch with my center, and that center is voice and guitar. Over time it has become increasingly vital to express more with less; that is my touchstone now, and the embodiment of that philosophy is what will be largely represented in the new show. I’ve been thinking of doing this kind of tour for a while, and am quite excited to be doing something new, something outside my comfort zone.”

[Ed. note: Lindsey Buckingham declined interviews.]

All I know is, from Buckingham Nicks until today I have followed BOTH artists, and saw Lindsey this summer on his solo trek through Ithaca, NY. He was FANTASTIC. Get a ticket….you won’t be disappointed. His talent is immense.

Speculation? If you had researched properly – you would have known that it was Stevie that broke Lindsey’s heart…though I do believe (after reading many interviews over the years) that Stevie regrets that now…
