I'll do that in due time. Pollstar referencing an article posted by the same organization who manage FM/Eagles is HARDLY validation to anything.

It was pretty much confirmed to us today, but no details were offered. I'm sure those will come in due time.

Pardon me? Where was it confirmed? Regurgitation of the original "news release" on other sites isn't confirmation.

This is bad, very very bad! Either get into the studio or split up! It's that simple!

One thing I noticed is signifigantly more animosity towards Fleetwood Mac from fans on the Eagles board than there is towards the Eagles here. I find that to be dissapointing. Am I more partial towards FM? Absolutely. But I have seen the Eagles 4 times and for the most part enjoyed myself with the notable exception of watching Glenn Frey "attempt" to still sing You Belong To The City. While I understand there is a natural rivalry between the bands since they were/are competing within the same genre of music, were not talking Red Sox/Yankees here! Cant we all just get along?

David--
I've seen Fleetwood Mac one time. It was okay. I enjoyed LB's guitar playing. Granted, my seats sucked, but I wouldn't rank the show as one of my favorites. I don't think the animosity is toward FM per se...but toward the fact that the bill will be split. Over the last few years, the Eagles setlist has become a "greatest hits" collection with the new songs slowly being removed from the setlist and even the acoustic set (with some of the standout performances of the evening) being cut for time. Having to share the bill with anyone will create even more cuts and reduce the chance of anything interesting happening. Do FM fans think that their set will be anything more than the Greatest Hits as well? Quote:

I seriously cannot believe it. WHY are they doing this??? Are they under some sort of impression that they have all the time in the world to put out new music? As much as it pains me to acknowledge it, their window of opportunity is getting smaller and smaller each year that passes. They really have a great opportunity to not just become a greatest hits band like most others, a lot of which disappear into obscurity. They could really be innovative and put out something amazing if they really put any effort into it. The future still holds so much more for them if they'd just get to work and go for it. This is such a waste of valuable time.

I really like the Eagles but one thing that has always ticked me off about them is that every time they go on tour the ticket prices increase allot and since they play the same set list pretty much all the time with very few rarities (Victim of Love, Sad Cafe, These Shoes, Disc Strangler etc) it does seem like a slap in the face of the fans who have been loyal to the band for so long. I also dislike the inclusion of so many solo songs from Don and Glen and Joe's solo career. I would rather hear more songs from the Eagles Catalogue.
As for Fleetwood Mac I love the band and saw them for the first time in Toronto in 2003. That show was ok but I felt like Stevie and Lindsey's vocals were subpar for most of the show. There were some exceptions (Beautiful Child, Stand Back, Eyes of The World Goodbye Baby). The backup musciains were a major distraction and annoying. This tour in 2009 I saw them in Ottawa and was very surprised. The band was in top form and I felt that the vocals were much better. The only let down for me was GYOW as it was sung in a lower register and it didn't suit the song at all. Aside from that the show was great. They seemed to be having fun and it didn't feel forced like it did on the SYW tour. As for the ticket prices I am expecting them to be in the 250 - 399 range. That is wayy to much money to be charging in this economy, but sadly people will pay. Everytime the Stones or Madonna go on tour at 299 - 350 per ticket the shows sell out so I don't expect this tour to be any different. They may have to book the tour in markets that can guarantee them a sell out (NYC, LA, VEGAS, etc) but I am sure that this will be successful. The only thing I wonder is if it will 40 + dates across the USA and Canada , or if it will be something similar to Tina's last tour where it was 25 shows in major markets that seemed the logical places for her to play and ensure a sell out. I am looking at going to one show and that is all. They won't change the setlists I bet so there isn't really a need to see them over and over again. Matt |

Plus some sort of Heartache Tonight duet with both bands, featuring a drum off between Don and Mick. Michele |
