Hopefully an NC date gets added post Christmas. Starting college in the fall and won't have the expenses or time to travel out of state for this one this go around and I'll be properly bummed if I miss Christine's grand return tour.

So it seems there will be a second leg. Hopefully with more southern dates.
Hopefully some more Midwest as well.

I Don't Know Why They Wouldn't Play Long Island!

I Guess Jones Beach Is Cold, But What About Nassau Coliseum


What About The Setlist?

I'm sure this is just one leg of "the tour". There will be more dates added next year. Don't be disappointed if you don't see your city on the list yet. Another way to look at it is, chances are they will have recorded some new material the next time they go out on the road, and THEY WILL, and you'll get to hear the new songs. That's my positive spin on it and I'm sticking to it!

Excerpt from USA Today

"We're being sensible about not overcooking the tour schedule," Fleetwood says. "I'm not comfortable doing five gigs a week. You get burned out. It would be stupid."

And the band's healthier habits should ease road stress, too.

"I don't drink like a fish anymore," Fleetwood says. "At 7 every morning, Chris and I are out on the lawn working out."

McVie says, "I need to be fit for this tour. I've never worked out in my life. This is the first time I've had a trainer or gone to the gym. I'm 70 and I need to be 45 again."

Fleetwood feigns shock and blurts, "You're 70, Chris? Oh, I've got to rethink this!"

So we do think there are going to be dates in 2015 based upon what Chris said?

I just don't know if I want to rely on that as being factual or just go ahead and cough up the money for both the ticket$ and airfare to FL, ATL, or NYC. Might as well make it a fun road trip if that's what seeing them will require this time around. I swear the money I've spent on this band--shouldn't they at least comp me a seat or something?

Certainly there will be Euro dates in 2015, more US dates will depend upon sales I'm sure.

Should we assume that since the band is making long-term plans (a US tour this fall, followed by more US dates and a world tour next year, along with assorted recording sessions) that John's prognosis must be very good? Otherwise, they have to be prepared to either use a substitute bass player or back out of a lot of big commitments.

Yes, I'm going on the assumption that his prognosis is good. Although he did look very frail last week. I don't know if chemo is over now or if it will be soon. He has three weeks to regain his strength though. I think they all assume he won't have a problem.
