Setlist Ideas for John

[skcin]

Well, he asked for it! :D I'm not quite sure how this would best be done. I suppose we can all post song suggestions, then summarize some of the most popular choices as well as some cool rare cuts that were mentioned. Maybe we can PM the song suggestions to Marty & Lis to forward to John. :shrug:

I'm not stupid, I know we can't collectively choose the entire setlist. But if he's seriously asking, maybe we could have some influence, even if it's just a song or two. Perhaps there's a slightly obscure tune that he/they've honestly never considered doing, or a song that hasn't been done in a long time that he/they assumed nobody cared to hear anymore. So I say let's give it a shot. :shrug: Perhaps one song will catch their eye & they'll give it a try.

Here's my list. I am going to assume that the tour will feature the same 4 members as the SYW Tour. I don't dare hope for anyone else for fear of being disappointed. :( And I'm not going to post the songs that I'm relatively sure will be in (I'm assuming Dreams, Tusk, Don't Stop, GYOW, Landslide & The Chain aren't going anywhere.)

Also, I am not going to list many pre-BN songs, since I don't feel that I am familiar enough with those eras to suggest songs that would be done (and done well) currently by this incaration of the band. I hope other Ledgies will chime in on this material - Chili, Homer, etc.

So, please post your ideas here & maybe, just maybe, we can have a teeny tiny influence on the setlist. Maybe not. But it can't hurt, right? :o

[skcin]

Anyway, here are my songs:

Green Manalishi (this is one bad ass tune, and I love the versions I've heard from the '75 tour)

Monday Morning (replaces Second Hand News)

World Turning (loved it on SYW tour, even with Stevie on Vocal)

I Don't Wanna Know (they usually play practically the entire Rumours album, so why not?)

The Ledge (although it might be too fast paced for them these days ;) - keep the O2 close by)

What Makes You Think You're the One (replaces IKINW)

Storms (replaces Beautiful Child)

Angel (although I have my doubts - not sure the magic can be captured again, she may half-ass it. And if she did, I'd be let down.)

SOTM (although I think this would have to replace GDW - too similar - and I'm not sure if I'd want GDW dropped. Also, that's an awful lot of Tusk-era Stevie tunes in the set, esp. if Sara stays)

Seven Wonders (Fun tune. What the hell. I'd like to hear something from TITN)

Tango In the Night (this would rock hard)

{I've always loved these SYW songs & think they'd be great live - pick two}
Steal Your Heart Away
Miranda
Illume
Thrown Down
Smile At You



If Chris were to do any shows (OK, I couldn't resist :o ) :

(assuming that YMLF, Over My Head, SYLM would automatically be in...)
Why
Oh Daddy
Think About Me
Honey Hi
Hold Me
Little Lies
Save Me
Songbird (to close)


As far as I'm concerned, they can drop/keep out:

All SYW tunes that were done on the SYW tour (that tour was great, but it's over now, let's throw something different in)
Don't Stop (yeah, I know, never gonna leave...)
Sara (sorry, I was thrilled when I saw them do it in 2004, but looking/listening back, it was good but not great)
Silver Springs (it's had it's magical moment, let's not run it into the ground)
Stand Back (I love it, but I'd rather no solo tunes this tour)
Eyes of the World
Never Going Back Again
Gypsy (unless they want to bust out with an acoustic version, ala' AHI 2000 - then, I'm all for it.)
Big Love (if it's not the album version, I've heard it enough, thanks)



And the only tune that I would honestly be upset over if they dropped? Go Your Own Way. I'm flexible with the rest. As much as I love most of the hits, if dropping Rhiannon or GDW means that Angel or SOTM make it in, then I say do it. If dropping I'm So Afraid means we get Tango? Buh-bye. :wavey:

I agree with all of these although I don't need to see a cheesy drum solo on World Turning. I would like to add:

Blue Letter
Crystal
Gyspy acoustic
That's Alright

[carrie721]

that's alright would've been fabulous 25 years ago ... now she'd have to drop it 2 octaves and still shorten the range. :rolleyes: :laugh:

totally agree about the rest, though. blue letter 2k8!!!

[Rickypt]

Hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I don't think for a second that we can influence the setlist, because I don't think John would be able to influence the setlist, as lovely as he is.

But I would like Angel, Storms, Monday Morning, and Miranda.

excellent, excellent list. LOVE green manalishi, and the ledge! i would personally lose from your list world turning, monday morning, and what makes you think you're the one.

i'd replace those with:

oh well

blue letter

crystal

i love GYOW, too. it rocks live. i'd hate to see ISA go... but i'm with you, if they swapped it for TITN.

{I've always loved these SYW songs & think they'd be great live - pick two}
Steal Your Heart Away
Miranda
Illume
Thrown Down
Smile At You

i definitely pick steal your heart away and thrown down

i'd also love to see i'm alright played.

and.... if there is a god.... if He cares at all about ledgies... if he can get the word to john....

FROZEN LOVE!!!!

i don't ask for much. ;)

[golden braid]

I forgot Frozen Love. That's a must. I kind of agree with Ryan that John probably doesn't have a huge influence over the setlist. Stevie and Lindsey are the ones singing the songs so I think they would have the most say.

[skcin]

that's alright would've been fabulous 25 years ago ... now she'd have to drop it 2 octaves and still shorten the range. :rolleyes: :laugh:


I agree on That's Alright - it's the only reason I didn't include it. I bet it would sound pretty good for the most part - but I'd be belting out the "oh you KNOW...it's been on...my mind" part at the show, and she wouldn't, and I'd look stupid, and we can't have that.

Hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I don't think for a second that we can influence the setlist, because I don't think John would be able to influence the setlist, as lovely as he is.

But I would like Angel, Storms, Monday Morning, and Miranda.

Whah-whah. :rolleyes:

I feel you, Ryan. But I refuse to believe that the changes made to the second leg of the SYW came out of a band member's ass. :D The web had to have something to do with it. Sara, after years of saying it wouldn't be back? Come on. We know that I Know I'm Not Wrong came (at least partially) via suggestion of some Ledgies in AUS. It could happen. Really.

i definitely pick steal your heart away and thrown down


I love you Cat. :angel: Those are my picks too.

Sweet Girl

What's The World Coming To (Try it again kids, this is a good song)


In the event that Christine joins them on the road:

Spare Me A Little


I adore Sweet Girl. :nod:

Eh. They've already done WTWCT live. I'd rather hear an alternative from SYW. It is a good song, but.....

And I completely forgot Spare Me a Little. I concur.

I forgot Frozen Love. That's a must. I kind of agree with Ryan that John probably doesn't have a huge influence over the setlist. Stevie and Lindsey are the ones singing the songs so I think they would have the most say.

The only reason I didn't put any BN tunes in is that I'm holding out hope for the BN tour that LB vaguely hinted at in a recent interview.

Also - Blue Letter rocks, but I'd rather have all Mac tunes, no covers. JMO.

[catinthedark]

i could accept if they needed a little practice before that buckingham-nicks tour... :o


i SO hope john is reading this thread!

Sisters Of The Moon
Tango In The Night
They can play whatever the heck else they want to if only these two got included. Really.

[mylittledemon]

I would like to see these make the show:

Oh Well

Blue Letter
Bleed to Love Her

[Nicks Fan]

I want Seven Wonders and Sara!!!! I have never heard them live before and would LOVE to hear these songs done live.

Matt

Please oh pleeeeeeease.....

Crystal
Blue Letter
Sisters of the Moon

It's all I'm asking. And it's not like they've never done those before anyways. So just do em! :] :laugh: :nod:

[AliceLover]

I had Lisa foward this to John. I tried to do what he said and still make it feasible. He said to make sure it flowed. I don't think its a good idea to fill a set list with all obscure tunes, so I kind of did an off and on thing. Heres what was sent, I'd love to hear feedback:

The Chain
Dreams
Steal Your Heart Away
Freedom
Eyes of the World
Second Hand News
Thrown Down
Never Going Back Again
Rhiannon

Gypsy

I compleetley agree with you! those three please.

[foxyluva]

More stuff from "Say You Will" and "Tusk" - I would also love for Stevie to do something from "Behind the Mask" and Lindsey to do "Tango in the Night". Something pre-buckingham nicks would be nice too.

Basically, no more than 4 tracks from 'Rumours' would be fantastic...

[skcin]

Basically, no more than 4 tracks from 'Rumours' would be fantastic...

I agree. So - what to keep in?

Dreams
The Chain
Go Your Own Way
YMLF if Chris were to play with them
If not, GDW

[HomerMcvie]

Basically, no more than 4 tracks from 'Rumours' would be fantastic...

AMEN!


But, they're gonna keep on milkin' that sucka, like it came out yesterday. They'll do it til they're six feet under.

I think that they feel, that that's the only way they can charge BIG ticket prices.

[AliceLover]

I agree. So - what to keep in?

Dreams
The Chain
Go Your Own Way
YMLF if Chris were to play with them
If not, GDW

I'm going on the fact that Chris won't be there. I say: The Chain, Second Hand News (rocked on SYW), Go Your Own Way, and Dreams (because we know it will be there no matter what).....but I like GDW live a lot too....never tire of it.

[AliceLover]

AMEN!


But, they're gonna keep on milkin' that sucka, like it came out yesterday. They'll do it til they're six feet under.

I think a lot of the songs from Rumours are still great to hear live. I wouldn't call it milking it when Im still enjoying tracks from that album live. Personally I thought Second Hand News, The Chain, Don't Stop, and Gold Dust Woman played great on the Say You Will tour.

[foxyluva]

I agree. So - what to keep in?

Dreams
The Chain
Go Your Own Way
YMLF if Chris were to play with them
If not, GDW

I would say "Dreams" "Never Going Back Again" "Gold Dust Woman" and "Go Your Own Way". "Oh Daddy" instead of "NGBA" if Chris was still involved...

AMEN!

I know, and its a damn shame that a band that is so much more than just one album, feel that they have to keep going back to that one album to please the crowd - they cater to the 'sometimes' fan instead of the real fans :shrug:

Which pisses me off...

Oh, they are, and they did. But playing 8 out of the 12 songs (including Silver Springs) on Rumours (and that's without Chris!) was a bit much. Took up too much of the setlist, IMO, and I'd like to see them change it up a bit.

Looks like Blue Letter is a pretty popular choice so far, as is the Tusk material in general.

Honestly, I really want to hear the SYW stuff live. I mean give or take Storms, Sisters of the Moon, and Seven Wonders i'd really love to see Running Through the Garden, Thrown Down, Everybody Finds Out, MIRANDA, Steal Your Heart Away, and Smile at You. If i had to choose ONE from both it would be Miranda and Running through the Garden.

I could deal with just Second Hand News, Gold Dust Woman, The Chain, and Go Your Own Way. Thats enough for me. (no pun intended, but that song would be great too)

But most "artists" wouldn't so consistently feature ONE album from their career. They would want to show that so much other material was also of merit.
When you factor in the ticket prices(compared to Tom Petty, and the like).......that tells me that it's only about one thing. Making big bucks.

(not trying to offend, but that's the way I see it)


OKAY, I'd like to see Bob Welch, and Jeremy Spencer join in the tour, as additional musicians(Jeremy might be genre limited, stylistically, but Bob's not). Let them do 3-4 songs each. THAT would make for a tour of the variety, that I'd still pay to see.

You make a good point and I agree with you. Personally on the last tour I would have loved to have seen the entire Say You Will album played live + Stand Back and that would have been amazing. The band all seems to talk about the same concert that scared them to not to do too many obscure songs on stage. The concert where they played the whole Rumours album and they got a bad response. If I see Running Through the Garden or Miranda on the next tour ill be ecstatic.

What songs would you like to hear?


I've said (for a while now) that my dream Mac tour would be a little bit from everyone - bring back Peter, Bob, Jeremy, Billy, Rick (who am I missing, songwriter-wise?) Let them each do a song or two with the band. Then the Rumours lineup could do the rest of the show. A pipedream? Of course. But a girl can dream.....

Rick Vito does an amazing job with "Stop Messin' Round" and "I Loved Another Woman". I'd love to see him do those two live. As for Billy, I think he did a nice job with Oh well, but thats about it. :laugh:

[HomerMcvie]

What songs would you like to hear?

From Bob, I'd like to hear Hypnotized, Emerald Eyes, Sentimental Lady, Future Games, and Ebony Eyes(HEY, if Stevie and Lindsey can play solo tunes, so can Bob!).
From Jeremy, I'd like to hear Shake Your Moneymaker, My Baby's Good To Me, and whatever else Jeremy wants to play for us.

[skcin]

^ OK. Can Stevie sing backup on Ebony Eyes? "Your love's got me.....yeah!"

[face of glass]

Family Man!

[HomerMcvie]

^ OK. Can Stevie sing backup on Ebony Eyes? "Your love's got me.....yeah!"

IF she can hit the notes, she's hired!:D

[HomerMcvie]

Family Man!

What is this obsession you have with Popeye?

[TheWILDheart]

I would love to see Edge of Seventeen or Stop Draggin My Heart Around (w/Lindsey) replace Stand Back (GOD I love Stand Back but it's been done). Also Angel would be amazing. SARA!! I LOVE IT!! BRING IT BACK!! Straight Back would also be incredilbe. I agree with Seven Wonders and (if Chris comes back) Isn't It Midnight would be fantastic. I would also like to see, at a long shot, Affairs of the Heart, Freedom, Everybody Finds Out, No Questions Asked

As for Lindsey, TITN to replace I'm So Affriad and Blue Letter to replace second hand news. I would also quite like to see Can't Go Back and Family Man and the PROPER version of Big Love would be cool.

[Gailh]

I would drop The Chain as an opener because it's been done to death, World Turning because it's not funny any more and either I'm So Afraid or Come because they're too long.

I think you need one really long one because everyone needs to go for a beer/wee at some point.

If Christine wont be there (and she wont) I would veto any of her songs not because I don't like them but because I can't stand anyone else singing them.

the pain of Stevie doing You Make Lovin Fun would be unimaginable.

Other than that they should shake it up a little and put in one or two that they've never done live before.

If they carry on with a set list similar to the SYW tour I probably wont go.

Perhaps we can set up a series of polls for each album? That way the lurkers can join in too. :D

Everyone's song choices are great. But I think (since we're shooting for the moon here anyway) we should really be asking for ALL of them with

ROTATING SETLISTS.

Just to name a few

Any set that doesn't include "Oh Well" is just not worth paying the money to see. Yes, that's right, I would pay their God-awful, over-inflated ticket prices just to hear one F***ing song.

Really! I was under the impression you weren't a fan of LB's versions. That's cool, I'd love to see them do Oh Well again too. :nod:

[chiliD]

I'm not. :shrug:

BUT, 1) I think it is a crime that Fleetwood Mac has gone their last two tours without it in their set, and 2) With Lindsey out to seemingly prove his "guitar greatness" the last three or four years (i.e. his antics during the SYW tour and the extended soloing on "Come"), it would be interesting to hear how he'd approach the song nowadays. :thumbsup:

[Serrart]

My setlist:

Tango in the night
Angel
Crystal (sung by both)
Everybody Finds Out
Shut Us Down (because I love it :D)
Eyes of the World
Seven Wonders
Save me a Place
Gold Dust Woman
Miranda
That's Alright
Tusk
Stephanie melting into Landslide (With Stevie at one side of the stage and Lindsey at the other)
Big Love (half acoustic half not)
Sisters of The Moon
Monday Morning
Goodbye baby

Go Your own way
Storms


Romy

[Little Nicki]

Stephanie melting into Landslide (With Stevie at one side of the stage and Lindsey at the other)

Don't worry, she knows he loves his wife. And she would never make a pass at him where she is so sure to get caught.

[PenguinHead]

I just hope they don't open with The Chain again! It's getting really old. Love the song...just stick it somewhere else in the set -- perhaps at the end of the set, where it was when they first started performing it.

Would love to hear them play Miranda, Thrown Down, Tango In The Night and Seven Wonders and Storms.

[stevierocks87]

Okay, I make these fantasy setlists WAY too much. Here's my latest:

(BOLD= the ones I REALLY want to hear)

1. Monday Morning
2. Dreams
3. Oh Well
4. Second Hand News/Eyes of the World (Switch out or choose 1)
5. Thrown Down
6. Never Going Back Again
7. Rhiannon (how about "going for it" at the end for one last tour?)
8. Big Love (electric!)
9. Tango in the Night (this would be THE guitar song. No Morrow or So Afraid)
----Acoustic Set-----
10. Gypsy
11. Try for the Sun (Say Goodbye/Red Rove style, with Stevie doing slight backing vocals)
12. Landslide (if they MUST. I could definitely go without in favor of other songs).
----------------------
13. Frozen Love
14. Red Rover
15. Gold Dust Woman (Can take out if too similar to SOTM-would much rather here SOTM)
16. Sara
17. Miranda/Twist of Fate/Gift of Screws (I don't see them doing any more than 1 of these, and probably not the GOS tracks, but I think Lindsey would have a lot of fun singing them, and Stevie doing back-up on the chorus)
18. Angel
19. Tusk
20. Stand Back
21. Go Your Own Way
----Encore 1-------
22. Sisters of the Moon
----Encore 2-------
23. The Chain
24. Blue Letter
25. Crystal (Lindsey does first verse, then Stevie)



I heavily agree with others that:

-any SYW songs not done on last tour are great
-Oh Well REALLY needs to be done
-We can let Silver Springs rest, but certainly wouldn't be disappointed to hear it
-do NOT open with the Chain. WAY overdone. I wouldn't be sad to see it gone, but it would work as an encore like in my list
-Totally content with NO World Turning or Don't Stop. Also Landslide, and acoustic Big Love)

:wavey: Adam :wavey:

[SteveMacD]

It's hard to come up with a set list. If there's a chance that some ex-Maccers would make the tour, that would change a huge chunk of the set. Obviously, The Chain, Dreams, Rhiannon, Don't Stop, GYOW, I'm So Afraid, Landslide, Tusk, and Big Love are all going to be in the set regardless of who else comes on board (if anybody). It's not even worth debating those songs. But the rest is wide open.

[SortaSavageLike]

There should be a medley of How Still My Love and Go Your Own Way played simultaneously. In the middle of the song, Lenny Kravitz could pop out from beneath the stage and perform Are You Gonna Go My Way. That would be awesome.

Or not.

[Serrart]

Don't worry, she knows he loves his wife. And she would never make a pass at him where she is so sure to get caught.

Sure she wouldn't;) But I was thinking more to a goodbye to the usual staged repertoire of affection onstage.

Romy

[mylittledemon]

You're simply not going to get all those odd songs. I think the SYW tour was as much a deviation from the "normal" Mac songs that we might see. They have to sell out the arenas. Here's my middle of the road setlist that I think is a good balance.

The Chain
Dreams

I'm leaving out 4-5 blank spots for "new" songs. Let's hope maybe they'd throw in some Buckingham Nicks tunes as well. Don't Let Me Down Again would be cool.

[BTFLCHLD]

Hadn't Stevie mentioned the usual is to take the previous tour setlist and trade-off from there? Also, for my own clarity, is this a wish-list set or the probable we are asked to post?

i think john asked that we be practical in our lists and take into consideration what they're mindful of: how many each singer, songwriter, era, etc., is getting.

that said, if i submit a list, it's totally going to include "storms." :laugh:

[BTFLCHLD]

Hmmm...I shall submit both the practical and the wishful...as avail :D Much like that list of countries.cities I am to share with you. hehe :xoxo: I am mental exhaust tonight...work is a bear this week...typing of exhaust...where's my pipe? :]

[foxyluva]

Why don't we just submit songs that we wish to see added to the set, instead of creating an entire setlist for them. That way John can report to the band with only the songs the fans want to hear, and then FM can decide from there :shrug:

[skcin]

^ That's why I started this thread. :nod: I figured we could take a look at which songs are getting multiple mentions & forward those to John. If we're lucky, maybe they'll throw us a bone & do 1 or 2 of them. I don't think anyone expects them to look at an entire setlist & say "yeah, this sounds good." Well, I hope they don't expect that. :o

[ontheEdgeof17]

Monday Morning
Crystal
I Don't Want To Know
Angel@$#$%
Sweet Girl
Bleed To Love Her
Straight Back
Save Me A Place
That's Enough For Me@#$%@#%#
Thrown Down
Steal Your Heart Away

[JazmenFlowers]

my only request is to please, please add Sisters of the Moon and Storms.

[danax6]

Okay guys, I added everything up and here is the top 10 of songs we'd all love to see added to the setlist. Maybe this can be forwarded to John and who knows, they might consider one or two? :shrug:

1. Sisters of the Moon
2. Tango in the Night
3. Crystal
4. Blue Letter
5. Storms
6. Seven Wonders
7. Thrown Down
8. Angel
9. Miranda
10. Oh Well

Honorable mentions:

Steal Your Heart Away, That's Alright, Bleed To Love Her, and Monday Morning.

:wavey:

[DavidMn]

Allright! I have the definitive asswer for John. Here it is:


A 2.5 hour endless loop of Don't Stop, Rhiannon, and Farmer's Daughter!:laugh:

[skcin]

OK, I went back through the thread - I did this quickly, so I may have missed a couple but I don't think there are any glaring omissions. Here are the most popular songs so far (10 or more mentions/agreements):

Sisters of the Moon
Blue Letter
Crystal
Storms
Tango in the Night


Other favorites (5 or more mentions/agreements):
7 Wonders
Monday Morning
Angel
Bleed to Love Her
Thrown Down
Miranda
Steal Your Heart Away
Oh Well


Save Me A Place, Smile at You, Everybody Finds Out & That's Alright each have 4.


BTW - I didn't count the "if Chris were there" choices, because she won't be. Also, routine songs like GYOW, Dreams, etc. are a given, so no need to suggest them, IMO.


EDIT: Sorry Vanessa, I guess we had the same idea at the same time. What a relief that we both got the same results, huh? :laugh:

[danax6]

[skcin]

Paula, beat you to it. :laugh:

Must be the time difference between the U.S. & Europe. :lol:

I agree with you, btw. Perhaps the most popular suggestions could be forwarded to John. How long should we give everyone to submit them?

[ontheEdgeof17]

How long should we give everyone to submit them?

Long enough for people to vote for That's Enough For Me. This song would kick ass live.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[gldstwmn]

Actually, I didn't think of that but it would be a pretty cool live song.

[skcin]

I think so too. :nod:

[BTFLCHLD]

eyes of the world as they all seemed to enjoy this during LIB.

edit: did they do this during SYW? Setlists show that they had but I do not recall this at all. Was I that wasted by song four?

[priestofnothing]

For the standard songs that we know will remain in the set list -

How about some new arrangements?

I loved what they did with Say You Love Me on the Dance tour.

John, how about some more new twists on old songs? The band must be bored with playing them the same old way too. I think most fans would love to hear more of the old songs played in a new way. I know I would.

Or even - dare I say it - a medley of the Rumours stuff like they did at the Grammys. That way the songs stay in the set but they are somewhat abbreviated and leave more time for other different stuff.

GASP! :shocked:

:p

It could work, but which songs? I can't see shortening GDW or GYOW. Don't Stop or Dreams, maybe.....

[strandinthewind]

Diana Ross used to medley her Supremes songs :shrug:

:wavey:

Wow! You nailed it for me. Those would be the exact songs I would pick.

[BTFLCHLD]

Miranda would suck live...IMO.

[Sarah]

my list..

songs for lindsey:
that's enough for me
blue letter
save me a place
walk a thin line


songs for stevie:
ANGEL *** (If I could pick only one Stevie song to hear live, period, this would be it.)
fireflies
everybody finds out
sisters of the moon

[chiliD]

Miranda would suck live...IMO.

I dunno...that one could go either way. If Lindsey were to play it alone (ala "Big Love"), he'd have to radically rearrange it, which would probably be a definite plus. If they did it full-band, it would just mean that Neale & the other hired-gun guitarist (hopefully NOT Carlos Rios) would earn their keep on it...and it probably wouldn't come off all that great.

[BTFLCHLD]

I dunno...that one could go either way. I don't like the song. ;)

[Sarah]

I don't like the song. ;)

i like miranda. i don't like stevie's parts, though.

[shackin'up]

i like miranda. i don't like stevie's parts, though.

I LOVE Miranda. I think its a topsong. But like you, I prefer the GOS-version.

[shackin'up]

Amen.
Such an arrangement COULD be the base for a great version including ONLY the rythmsection. Cool.

[UnwindedDreams]

i like miranda. i don't like stevie's parts, though.
I think Stevie's parts make the song...jmo

[AliceLover]

I mean those selections are great. Sisters of the Moon, Blue Letter, and Storms definitely earn their keep but I think that we really got STIFFED on the Say You will Tour. They played the crappiest songs from the album. I think Running Through the Garden, Everybody Finds Out, Thrown Down, Miranda, and Steal Your Heart away need to be done.

[chiliD]

I think Running Through the Garden, Everybody Finds Out, Thrown Down, Miranda, and Steal Your Heart away need to be done.

"Everybody Finds Out" would be majorly difficult to pull off successfully live. It would have to be totally rearranged. And, RTTG would send me to the "gag bag" in a hurry. (only song on SYW I really dislike)

I just think they should've just come out and played SYW from beginning to end, taken an intermission, then come back & played an hour of hits.

Chili, did you hear them rehearsing it on the Destiny Rules DVD? Its just John, Mick, and Lindsey playing. I thought the intro sounded GREAT. Running Through the Garden is just one of my favorites. I agree with the Say You Will idea. So many great songs I wish were done with Stevie AND Lindsey. Thats why I think we need some songs in there for the next tour because you and I BOTH know that Stevie won't wanna do any.

[chiliD]

Chili, did you hear them rehearsing it on the Destiny Rules DVD?

Nope...don't have it. :shrug: I know...:eek:

Ok, so here's my "reality check, with just a sprinkle of fantasy" setlist suggestion:

Monday Morning
Dreams
Blue Letter
Rhiannon
Oh Well
Smile At You
I Know I'm Not Wrong

Acoustic set: (I like this idea)
Big Love
Landslide
Red Rover
Illume
Never Going Back Again
Gypsy
Show You How

Back to electric:
Say You Will
Peacekeeper
Thrown Down
Murrow
Everybody Finds Out (ok, if you say it sounded great, let's add it)
Tusk
Stand Back
Go Your Own Way

Encores:
Destiny Rules
The Chain

Don't Stop
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You

[ontheEdgeof17]

Chili, did you hear them rehearsing it on the Destiny Rules DVD? Its just John, Mick, and Lindsey playing. I thought the intro sounded GREAT.

It was okay. Very rough. I never want to hear this live. The CD version is just too good. Stevie's voice couldn't handle it all the way through......imo

[amber]

Put on more votes for:

That's Alright
Angel
SOTM
The Ledge

[billwebster]

These are my choices (in no particular order, and depending who tours with them):

-Twisted (quasi Buckingham Nicks song from 1997)
-What's the World Coming To (Lindsey)
-Miranda (Lindsey)
-Affairs Of the Heart (Stevie)
-Gypsy (I love the song but only from Stevie - it's her signature tune)
-Paper Doll (Stevie)
-Welcome To the Room Sara (Stevie)
-Family Man (Lindsey)
-Destiny Rules (Stevie's best on Say You Will)
-Steal Your Heart Away (Lindsey)
-Running Through the Garden (Stevie)

and if they have Bekka filling in for Christine, let's hear the following of Christine's tunes:
-Love Shines
-Do You Know
-Temporary One
-Say You Love Me
-Little Lies
-Hollywood
and Bekka will surely want to sing her own tunes, too, since she's a pretty good writer.

If it's Billy and Rick there, too, let's have:
-In the Back of my mind
-Hard Feelings
-Talking To My Heart
-When the Sun Goes Down
-I Got It In For You
-Desiree (with Stevie)

and if Lola Thomas was to unexpectedly turn up (which I highly doubt, but anyway), let's include some of hers, too, like:
-The Way I Do
-Now I Know (duet with Billy maybe?)
-All That I Was Guilty Of Was Loving You
-Evidence

The outcome might seem like a Fleetwood Mac Family and Friends Tour ;-)

[AliceLover]

I thought Lindseys guitar sounded great with it. Its really only hard to sing at the end and her voice is MUCH stronger now. Edge of Seventeen, Rock and Roll, and Beauty and the Beast right in a row is very tough and she did that for almost 2 years. I think she can handle EFO.

[Johnny Stew]

I wish Fleetwood Mac would add more obscure songs to their setlist, just so I can keep a tally of how many people then complained that the rendition sucked ("listless," "uninspired," "pitchy," "off-key," "avoided the high notes," "needed Christine," "was ruined by all of the additional musicians," etc., etc.) and wasn't nearly as good as the studio version and/or past live versions. :laugh: ;)

I don't think it would work. After the first date welcomed with amazed, heartfelt and grateful "Thank You Stevie", "Brilliant Lindsey" comments all the "listless," "uninspired," "pitchy," "off-key," "avoided the high notes," "needed Christine," "was ruined by all of the additional musicians," etc., etc." repertoire would start again. ;)

OK, I PM'd the summary that Vanessa & I tallied up to Marty & Lis. I also added "That's Enough For Me" since it got some late votes. Hopefully they will forward it to John & we'll see what happens. :angel:

[skcin]

No, I ignored all of them.



:rolleyes:



Of course I did! :laugh: And there's like 15 songs on the list. Maybe they'll throw us a bone & do 1. :D

Well, I figured you were thorough, but the part where you said "The summary me and Vanessa tallied up" and not "The new summary etc." gave me slight pause. Paws? :angel: Whatever, I just wanted to make sure That's Alright got enough votes for the list.
Cause, you know, it really makes a difference. Their entire next tour setlist will be based on some random list some random fans handed to john. :nod:

[ontheEdgeof17]

Good girl. :xoxo:

I saw where JMcVie replied to you. :blob2: TEFM would be fantastic live! I'm feelin' it!!

[skcin]

Dudes, he read the list & replied & didn't tell us to f*ck off! Yay! :angel: Maybe, just maybe, we'll get a song or two.
