Just wanted to wish all our Euro, New Zealandie, Aussie, etc. fans some great shows!
I'm so happy for you. You'll have a great time and I look forward to all the stories, pictures and videos that the Ledge can hold!

What is the time difference between here and Denmark? (Is that where the first show is?). Will we be getting any reviews?

What is the time difference between here and Denmark? (Is that where the first show is?). Will we be getting any reviews?

Six hours (nine hours on the left coast, I suppose). So, for a change, we should know all about the show by the time most of us leave work! Admittedly, I am expecting there to be absolutely zero change from the U.S. shows, so I am managing my expectations accordingly.

Hey Arlene!

These videos are great,, am especially loving Second Hand News! I can't wait for someone to post the full set list and answer my burning question...did they do Silver Springs?! It's one of my favourite songs ever, so emotional, and it's been a dream of mine to see it live. I know it was on and off the setlist in the US so I'm reallllllyyyyyy hoping for it in Glasgow!

FMlex

10-08-2009, 05:21 PM

I wish someone who went to the Copenhagen show would wander over here and let us know how it went!!

How was Stevie? Did she have a first-show spark in her or was she going through the motions?

Same ol' little speeches before each scheduled song?

Like Dodfather said... "Silver Springs"?!

From the videos so far, they sound pretty good! At least they're (hopefully) well-rested.
Would've liked to see a little mix-up in the set for you guys, but beggars can't be choosers.

Talk about "ninja," Btflchld has MAD ninja skills!

It's so amazing and fabulous how Lindsey Buckingham has finally opened some eyes. He deserved praise long ago. I'm happy he can see, even at this late date, that people are truly affected by what he does.
It's weird though, there's never room for more than one "star" in reviews, even though they all are. There wasn't then and there still doesn't seem to be now. (Although I think everyone did rightfully get credit for "The Dance.")

ANYWAY, I am so glad we have videos of this! I was running around school today screaming, "Unleashed in Copenhagen! Unleashed and Copenhagen!" and getting really weird looks from people.

I'm just starting "Gold Dust Woman" from tonight's show right now.... I am pumped to watch all of these! Mac is back!

well apparently neither Stevie nor Lindsey spent time shopping for new clothes during the break. :sorry: I know that's negative but I'm SO tired of the same old outfits... Stevie seriously needs to give that black ruffled dress a long rest in moth balls.

Otherwise, they sounded great!!! Yeah:] Hope everyone who went or will be going had/will have a great time!!

Apparently the sound was really ****ty in this venue but maybe we'll get lucky and have similar GDW's performed in places with a) good acoustics and b) a helpful person in the audience to record either audio or video :D

Just back from Copenhagen, and Parken.

The acoustic in Parken was horrible (Mr Buckinghams guitar too loud att some songs and Stevies vocal too low in others), but the show was excellent anyway!

Gold dust woman was the best I've heard in YEARS (standing ovation from 20.000)! Stevie is in really really good voice!
She dedicated Landslide to Hotel L'angleterre, where she's been staying the last week before the show, and to the friendly people in Copenhagen.

I'm so happy I've got tickets for tomorrow, a sold out Ericsson Globe will be a blast!

10-09-2009, 12:16 PM

Oh, I almost forgot, Swedish reviewers were at Parken. The review I read in Aftonbladet today was as bad as FM always gets in my country, sorry to say...

Stevie is the only one who gets good reviews, especially för Sara and Landslide.

There is no english word for what he wrote about Mr Buckinghams guitarsolo in ISA, the meaning is something like: A solo like that should get him the death penalty.

Just so everyone knows what to expect after tomorrow night.

If you close your eyes during the guitar solo in I'm So Afraid you'll be transported back to the 1970's. If you weren't born yet, you'll still be transported.

Yipes, that's harsh! :eek: Granted, I do agree that his three-note guitar solo in ISA is a bit overwrought, overindulgent, excessively long, etc., but I don't think he deserves to be put to death when maybe a few pumps of pepper spray would be sufficient.

I'm sorry, wrong paper, the review is at Expressen.se

For the swedish poeple in here, this is what he wrote:

"Det här är Stevie Nicks show men det borde vara skottpengar på LB gitarrsolo i ISA"

I don't know how to translate skottpengar correct:

It's like when ,for example, an aggressive wolf kills a lot of cattle. Then hunters get payed if they kills it. Like a reward. If you know what I mean?;)

Anyway, since the headline of the review is: So sleepy it's almost criminal Fleetwood Mac!, I don't think the reviewer was being nice to Mr Buckingham (he also thinks he murders Oh, well by the way) . As he writes at the end: This is Stevie Nicks show (referring to Sara and Landslide etc).

I know how this reviewer work, he's well known in Sweden. I just hope Expressen send someone else to the show tomorrow.
