I still think the most explosive fun show was Christine McVie Band 1984. Watching her go between Grand Piano and Keyboard was amazing. They rocked!
This is what I'm talking about !!!!

They had so much fun performing together. I've never seen Christine so relaxed and thrilled.

that's really good to hear.

because i've never seen Lindsey so tense as at BuckVie shows, and i have a pretty good frame of reference - all together i've seen him at over 50 solo, Mac and Buckvie shows. at BuckVie, he shouldered it all and made sure she sounds good and is comfortable, and that show gels well. he did get more relaxed as the tour went on. no wonder he cried at the end of their last show of the tour.

Its funny you say that. I never noticed anything for Buck/Vie but did so on his last solo tour. I was front row and Lindsey played as if he was a new comer trying to make it in the business. I would not call it nervous but just so into going way overboard performing and really feeding off the audience. Like I said, you would have thought it was his first big gig or something. Gave it all to almost exhaustion.

you are talking about re-invigorated playing, like new beginnings. and yeah he definitely had that going in 2018. Lindsey never coasted or phoned-in live shows, but yes, he did play in 2018 like he still has something to prove, and we all benefited from it.

that has nothing to do with him being tense or worried how it will all turn out - like he was during BuckVie shows.

just curious, did you see any of his previous solo tours?

the only solo tour i saw where he had a small tiny fraction of that tenseness he had on BuckVie tour was at the first few One Man shows, where he seemed unsure how will it all turn out. once when first few shows were out of the way though, he was completely relaxed on that tour, as he usually is.

i've seen the first, many in the middle, and the last show of Solo Anthology tour in 2018. he looked relaxed from the first show to the last.

I was at the Nashville and Louisville shows.

Nashville was a night I'll never forget. I was 4th row, but made my way to the front row, pushing the dozen roses I bought Christine to just an inch away from her toes.
