2009 Fleetwood Mac Tour Setlist [Archive]

LiamMcConville

10-21-2008, 07:53 PM

Here's the plan: We create our agreed upon "Dream Setlist," and send it to each member of Fleetwood Mac, and hopefully, they'll take our ideas into consideration.

------

Here's how this is going to work:

1. Post the TWO songs that you feel MUST be included in next years setlist.

2. One song must have Lindsey on lead vocals, one must have Stevie on lead vocals, unless you indicate a duet.

3. Post your ideas for the concert. Acoustic set, lighting, band placement, etc.

------

Remember -- Everyone is going to post their two favorites, so most songs will eventually be covered. ONLY POST TWO. Any further song recommendations wil be ignored.

The date cutoff will be at the end of next month. From there, I'll create a poll, we and we'll cut it down 24 songs. 12 Lindsey, 12 Stevie, more or less.

Also -- Realize that this twelve will HAVE to include the hits.

Thrown Down
What Makes You Think You're The One

Suggestion: Just go out with the core group (Mick, John, Lindsey and Stevie) plus a keyboardist and one guitarist. Retire: Big Love and Come.

Bleed to Love Her
Angel

Core four and all I request is Brett on keys (considering the obvious is impossible).

Angel
Book of Love

I guess only the Mac members, plus some additional keyboards [whoever I don't care], none of Stevies backup girls. SnL all vocals, no World Turning PLEASE.

Those are my ideas. :nod:

2. One song must have Lindsey on lead vocals, one must have Stevie on lead vocals, unless you indicate a duet.

3. Post your ideas for the concert. Acoustic set, lighting, band placement, etc.

-----

1.
a. Angel
b. Sisters Of The Moon
(Stevie may NOT perform Dave Mathew's "Crash" no matter how much she likes it)

2. Lindsey is already capable of varying his set list, so I've selected two songs with Stevie on lead. However, I suggest "Blue Letter," "Tango In The Night," "Miranda," or totally off the radar, "Love Runs Deeper" for Lindsey. Stevie would do great back up on any of them. (Tango needs no backup)

3. Since they tend to emphasize "Rumours songs" (Second Hand News, Dreams, Never Going Back Again, Don't Stop, Go Your Own Way, The Chain, Gold Dust Woman), perhaps they could get a lifesize cardboard figure of Christine to "stand in," while playing a recorded Christine "Songbird" at the end of the show. ;) Stevie & Lindsey should not cover Christine's songs.

Unsought suggestions: Bag 'Landslide.' Bag 'I'm So Afraid.' Please. They should all wear hats.

They'll do Angel next year. I would be SHOCKED if they didn't. Unless they feel that Sara was only performed for a small portion of the tour that it will suffice... which would be really lame. Storms will likely be considered too boring for the concert setting.

As for a Lindsey song, Not That Funny is probably due for a redux, as unoriginal of a choice as that might be.

Moz

10-21-2008, 11:15 PM

Songs I'd like them to do: Angel, What Makes You Think You're The One, Don't Let Me Down Again (yeah, right), The Ledge (bring out the elastic band guitars!!), Love Runs Deeper (hey, if Stevie can do Stand Back...), Sisters of the Moon. Most importantly... DON'T DO ANY CHRISTINE SONGS WITHOUT HER THERE! It won't be the same.

Lindsey: Big Love - ALBUM VERSION PLEASE!!! If he needs to have his "solo-moment" he can do Go Insane.

Stevie: Angel

Suggestion: Offer Christine 3 million dollar if she agrees to tour again and set up the stage "in the round".

Phil

10-22-2008, 06:57 AM

Stevie: Storms (I would have chosen Angel but others have taken care of this already so maybe we'll get both???)

Lindsey: Crystal

PS Stevie and Lindsey should definitely perform whichever Christine songs they feel comfortable doing - undoubtedly, their versions would be the definitive takes. Oh and yes, Stevie should do Songbird - it would be far more stirring in her hands.

I am in total agreement with the album version of Big Love being performed - they could begin the show with this.

Lindsey Jr.

10-22-2008, 10:29 AM

Thrown Down
Go insane (full band version)

Normally, I would agree with you, as this is a no brainer. However, if they decided they wanted to duet on Crash, I wouldn't dismiss the thought out of hand. I'd be into seeing them perform some of those lyrics -- once.

How do we go about sending this to the band members?:shrug:

Stevie: Storms (I would have chosen Angel but others have taken care of this already so maybe we'll get both???)Every concert needs a pee break, I suppose.

For Stevie I suggest Seven Wonders. I think this would be a great concert opener. She can still pull it off.

Lindsey...I am gonna say Crystal. After hearing Say Goodbye on the last tour, I totally think this would sound awesome with Stevie on background.

Stevie - Running Through the Garden
Lindsey - The Right Place to Fade

GoS

10-22-2008, 03:11 PM

Lindsey: Save Me a Place. It was between this, NGBA, and Red Rover, but I have heard the other two.

Stevie: I Don't Wanna Know

Who is going to suggest Go Your Own Way and Dreams? Although some of us may not like it, it just wouldn't be an FM/Lindsey/Stevie concert otherwise.

Sisters of the Moon & Second Hand News would make me very happy : )

Well, we don't have to suggest those. Lindsey and Stevie will automatically suggest them. Our job is to choose the songs they wouldn't choose on their own.

Girl I know, there are tooo many songs... It is impossible to chose just one from each artist. IMPOSSIBLE I tell you.

"You don't typically do "takes" at a concert."

Yes David, you are correct but I was speaking in a broader sense, referring to what I believe could well be the superlative versions of Christine's songs, in the event this occurred. I would take a Stevie/Lindsey interpretation over any of Christine's versions, studio or live. Let's face it mate, aren't we just splitting pubes here?

PS Great suggestions earlier about Seven Wonders and Thrown Down. Also, how about Stevie and Lindsey duetting on Think About Me?

Lindsey's NGBA gets my vote.
I'd sell my soul to see and hear Stevie sing Sara live.

Lindsey: MIRANDA
Stevie: SEVEN WONDERS - rearranged, acoustic! (de-eightified)
Both: I DON"T WANT TO KNOW

To be honest, what I truly desire is for the Tusk album to be performed in it's entirety, with or without Christine (although it would be my preference for her to be involved). I consider Stevie, Lindsey and Christine to all be at their creative peak during this recording and would love to see all 20 tracks translated live. I realise this will never happen but how fantastic would it be if it actually occurred, maybe just as a one-off, filmed show in the vein of The Dance? Dave, surely you'll back me on this - we seem to agree on everything else...

cheers mate!

That would be my dream, too. Although they could do some SYW-tracks (miranda, thrown down) and I Don't Want To Know and Crystal, too.

Stevie should definitely do Sister of The Moon. Lindsey I think should do Book Of Love. and here's hoping throw in Frozen Love.

BellaDonna93

11-06-2008, 03:38 PM

I really want them to do Frozen Love and Crystal!!!!!!!!! And then, I hope they'll come to Sweden...still, is there anyone who knows anything about where they will do the tour...Europe?...or only the U.S...?

What was the incident?

What was the incident?

Lindsey twirling around with his jacket over his head, kicking at Stevie, laying on the stage spinning around in circles and playing his guitar all wacked and singing off key... at the end of the show, they all went back to the dressing room to find him where Stevie was in hysterics, Christine slapped him and threw a drink in his face and they did no encore ... end of said incident.

Christine slapped him and threw a drink in his face

...the good ole days when Christine ruled FM with an iron fist.

ThunderHappens

11-12-2008, 01:21 AM

If I'm allowed to cheat, then I choose:
1. Sisters of the Moon
2. Gypsy

:D But if I absolutely must go by the rules, then I guess I would choose:

Stevie: Sisters of the Moon
Lindsey: I'm So Afraid (with Stevie as back up, à la The Dance)

Sisters of the Moon is awesome, but I prefer the album version over the live interpretation. I much prefer to hear Stevie's howling "me" and "moon" rather than the shortened "me, yeah!" "moon, yeah!". Also, I think John's bass defines this song, and in the live performances I've seen, it was almost drowned out. I haven't heard it live in person though, so that could account for it.

I would be interested in hearing Stevie and Lindsey sing Christine's songs, but I would rather hear more of their own, rarely played songs.

Stevie: SISTERS OF THE MOON (including speaking in tongues, please :D ) (Gosh, that was magical...)She didn't even do it the next nine nights of the tour.

BUT ... she did something better. She sang with vim & vigor, with gusto & verve, with passion & commitment, with radical chic & Islamic jahoodyism.

Two people I know were at that particular concert.
My Uncle who went said they were crap LOL, he reckoned tusk went on for like 15 minutes.

I heard that it was televised and TVNZ still has a copy of the concert, but they told me they couldnt release it to me due to copyright issues :rolleyes:

He'll struggle with the vocal in its original key. We'll get the breathy version of NTF. Not hatin', just sayin'.

I don't think Chris is leaving her house for 3 mil. You might have to tack a zero on to that figure.

Oh my I am so freaking excited that FM is kicking off their tour here in Pittsburgh. That made my day. I can see Mellon Arena from my house, WOOT! The arena is very old and has seen better days but its really the only place to see a big show in Pittsburgh besides the Ampitheather. 2 more years until a new Arena. Its nice that FM is coming here since a lot of bands skip Pittsburgh since the Arena roof cant hold the weight of all the big shows.
I cannot wait for this concert :)
If they did Sisters of the Moon I would completely freak out. I love that song! I would love to hear Storms too. They could swap out Beautiful Child with this song even though I love them both!
