They decided to stay in Philadelphia for a couple of days. In order to get to the Atlantic City show they had a police escort for the 75-minute drive to the New Jersey Broadwalk Hall. May 18 A day off! Mick played a round of golf at Pine Hill in New Jersey. Mick, Jamie (Mick’s assistant) and John Bunker teed off at 4:00 PM and went 11 holes; they lost 30 balls, but had a blast! Jamie has some shots of comedic moments and as soon as they arrive we’ll post them for members. Mick, Stevie, their assistants and members of the tour support team, went to The Palm Restaurant for dinner. They had a fabulous dinner and ended the evening with Stevie and Mick recording a 50th wedding greeting for Carl Stubner’s (manager) parents. May 19 The show in Philadelphia. The band was in great form electrifying the audience. The fans in Philly are truly loyal to their Mac. The Band really seems to connect on stage, giving the fans a memorable performance. After the show, the band gathered in the hotel bar and mingled with guests. Brett Tuggle, the keyboardist, was found leading a sing-along to Beatles Songs. A unique moment for those in the right place at the right time. The next morning Mick was seen shopping in Philadelphia where he picked up some cool hats and additional camera equipment. May 20 The band was treated to a private visit to the famous jewelry store, Halloween. It was a hit! Both Stevie and Mick purchased sculptures and jewelry. May 21 The band is at the Pepsi Arena in Albany New York. They boarded the private 727, flew to Albany, and were the delight of the fans in upstate New York. The Mac is getting warmer and more interactive with the audience each night – and the fans are showing their love and appreciation with warm receptions. The Band is now in The Big Apple. Each member separated and went to his or her favorite hotel. The time in New York was cherished, especially for Mick and Lindsey, as both Lindsey’s family and Mick’s family came to share Memorial Day weekend together. May 23 Mick and Lynn spent a relaxing day walking through New York, shopping and meeting fans. They thought they had plenty of time to get to the show, but everyone seemed to underestimate traffic in New York, especially Friday afternoon traffic. The limousine got stuck in the Memorial Day weekend rush and they almost missed sound check. But the delays didn’t hurt the show, the Mac was on fire. And for the first time on this tour the crowd galvanized and clapped to the beat of Mick’s base drum. The chemistry between Mick and Lindsey was electrifying – much to the delight of the fans. Stevie struck a deep connection with this crowd and really interacted on GDW, Standback and Beautiful Child. Lindsey was possessed as he gave the fans an unforgettable display, pounding the guitar so hard he actually drew blood. Celebrity talk show host Bill O’Reilly, of the Fox’s O’Reilly Factor was seen in the audience, surely formulating his trademark straight from the heart report. Later Bill was invited back stage and met the band. It was a quiet weekend in New York for the band members. A day off saw Mick with a touch of the flu, and hence he was comfortable spending the day resting with his family. Lindsey also spent the day with family, while John McVie toured the city with fans constantly approaching. May 25 During the sound check the band held a mini celebration for Stevie’s Birthday, which is May 26, including cake with vanilla icing and the traditional “Happy Birthday” sung by the band, family and friends. There will be a bigger celebration when the band has a little longer break. East Rutherford, New Jersey. Sold out show! It was a great show with a great crowd, including lots of family and friends of the band. After the show the radio contest winners had a meet and greet with the band. During Landslide, the crowd went wild when Stevie sang “I’m getting older too” and then held up her open hands to show she was 55! May 26 The next day the band left New York, with Lindsey and Mick saying goodbye to their families. The band boarded the private 727 and flew to Worcester, MA. May 27 The band played the first of two sold out shows in Worcester, MA. Mick was still nursing his cold, in fact he was quite sick with the flu, but you couldn’t tell from his performance on stage. The first “stage rusher” of the tour climbed up on stage and was instantly removed by security. Boston had the most rowdy and rambunctious audience so far on this tour. They are definitely die-hard Fleetwood Mac Fans! One fan club member wrote back, “Stevie is Twirling like a Goddess” and delivering more and more powerful vocals. Just AWESOME live! The Band drove with a police escort to downtown Boston where they spent the night. May 28 The next day included a workout in the hotel gym and preparation for the next show. Wycliffe Groussbeck, the Boston Celtics Owner, attended the second Boston show, and presented Mick with an official Boston Celtics Jersey with Mick Fleetwood’s name across the back. Mick was beaming! Taryn Manning, actress and leader of the group Boomkat also attended the show. She was just on the cover of FHM magazine and was on a Leno rebroadcast this week. You may have seen her in the movie 8 Mile with Eminem. Stevie saw her in Crossroads and told her that she was impressed with Taryn’s work. Neil Preston (photographer) has been shooting for the tour book. The book is still planned to come out soon and in addition to being offered at shows, it should be available on the Club site in the future. More Soon!

Like any of this really means anything. What does it mean to say, members get Exclusive Merchandise in the same breath you say it will be for sale to the public soon? What's that?
I'm glad to see they're giving away tickets. It's about time! Who gets them is another story. If it's anyone fans here know...scream loud and clear about the winner...ok? We know who went to the rehersal, and those with promoter connections who got the few front row fan club seats. I'll wait to see who wins. I know who WON'T. |

Maybe Mr. O would like to sign the petition or read some of the SPIN over at Mick's Chat?

RE: Fan Club Update
I don't know about the majority of the rest of us fan club suckers, but personally the only update at the present time I want from SO Called FAN CLUB is an apology!! Money back would be nice also. I don't get it with this tour whole thing seems screwed up to me. I check everyday or 2 OKC tickets.com and the tickets seem to get better as concert gets closer. I was under the impression that the best seats are sold first. So I go and check out other venue sites same thing is happening at majority of them also. Did I miss something in the fine print that said fan club seats sold last?? Because that appears to be what is selling or what I would call fan club seats. These sections weren't even offered in fan club sale. This will probably be last concert I go to for some time. The whole fiasco has just left me with a bad attitude. I love Stevie and wouldn't miss concert for the world, but will never again be sucked in by the money grubbing pigs. I am beginning to believe it's not only Todd but also ticketmasters and tickets.com, I feel as though the whole damn thing was a phoney set up to begin with. Only my opinion all, sorry to vent again on this subject!! It's just makes my blood boil when I log on to tickets.com and see better seats avaible now.
OK-LANDSLIDE

11 day update from the most well connected tour in the history of rock and roll.
As usual, the insider tidbits are so exciting and personal. Where else can you find out about a wedding greeting to Carl Stubner's "parents"? It's so pathetic that it's not even funny anymore. For all of you who didn't join the fanclub, you'll be heartbroken to hear that there's a picture of Central Park posted that was taken from Lindsey's hotel room. Did I mention that Lindsey wasn't in the room at the time the picture was taken? Boomkats? Can someone tell me about this group. I thought I stayed current about music artists, did I miss someone important? OK Landslide..have you tried to file a dispute with your credit card company? I've only heard of one person who was refused and from what I understand it was the credit card company and not really the fanclub who refused it. Sorry you and your daughter have been put through this. |
