They did botch the verses of Hold Me, I think it was mostly Christine's mistake.
Did the concert start on time? How long was it? 2 hours maybe, including The Wallflowers or was it only them?

I'm asking because I have to travel from LV to LA and I still have to buy my bus ticket.

Why does everyone keep saying they messed up Hold Me? Other than that girl singing over the entire video, it sounds fine. They look like they had a great time singing it and it got a great response as well.

I'm glad Hold Me got the official live treatment! Also "Wish You Were Here" sounds beautiful.

I'm hoping maybe these reissues but some new live ideas in their heads. Maybe Isn't it Midnight will be in the FM set.

Because some people can't wait for everything to fail.

I'm also hoping for "Isn't it Midnight".

Search Buckingham Mcvie on YouTube and narrow the results to "Uploaded Today"

I love the fact Christine digs deep into her classic masterpieces. When I was a kid, I would listen to Wish You Were Here and cry. The song had that impact on me. I could be wrong but I bet we see different songs at every concert. They have so much material and have shown to be spontaneous.
I hope you are right about changing up the set list from show to show a bit but I'm not holding my breath. LB solo never changes his set lists other than adding odd request at the end.

I'm happy with 8 new songs they are doing and I bet they really make this show. Definitely sounds like it from all the excited reviews we've been getting!!

I'm also happy with Christine s choices and completely shocked she's actually skipping don't stop!

The part where I'm unhappy is Lindsey's choices of extra songs. It's predictable and boring.

Tickets said 7:30 which is about when The Wallflowers went on. They played for about 45 minutes then changeover took a while, I think Lindsey and Christine went on at 8:30-8:45ish. They played for almost two hours.

So, 3 hours and 15 minutes maybe. Thanks a lot!

The only way a BuckVie song gets into the Mac set is if Stand Back comes back. As for two BuckVie songs...Stand Back AND the Gypsy story will go an hour!

Hold Me sounded great but yes, Chris sang a few words wrong (I think...it was momentarily wonky sounding).. This stuff happens especially at the first show. No way do I see them dropping it - seemed to get a great crowd reaction!!

Then bring back Stand Back, I don't care.

Please, for the love of all that is that is holy, leave that stupid Gypsy story out! I'm sick of sweet 17 Stevie and sweet 16 Lindsey that now can't be in a room together.

I bet she could do it as well.

She'd have to ask if we're all sitting comfortably before she begins.

not surprised about no Songbird considering Game of Pretend.

totally impressed with Chris not doing Don't Stop.

would be totally impressed with Linds not doing Big Love but he ruined that by doing Trouble and NGBA. would rather hear BL than those 2 any day!

So Afraid and Never Going Back Again? Really?? We've heard these a gazillion times and probably again next year. Big missed opportunity for some great solo or FM deep cuts.

I personally don't care if they add SB back either. And I completely agree about the Gypsy story. I'd rather they do two of her solo songs than have that dumb story again. In particular if it meant two BuckVie songs!
