Did You See Fleetwood Mac on The Unleashed Tour????

[Musicman408]

Was just curious to how many of us ACTUALLY went and saw the best band in the world on their current tour???

I saw them in Columbus, Ohio, 3rd row, right in front of Stevie. For those of you all who know me, that's been a long time coming- and it was the BEST night EVER!!!!! Loved when Lindsey looked at talked to me!!! :nod:

[Lindsey Jr.]

I'm still mad that I couldn't go due to unforseen circumstances.

[Fannymac]

Nope......after 30+ years (1976 was the first time!) of seeing every tour (often multiple times!), I passed on both the SAY YOU WILL tour (no desire to see the band without Christine) and this one (no desire to see a Greatest Hits tour.....and even with the addition of one or two new/old songs, that's EXACTLY what this tour was!!!)

[Lori40]

I saw them from the 23rd row in St. Paul, then in Milwaukee , right under Lindsey's mic. It was like two totally different shows.

[GypsyBlueEyes]

I saw them on April 20th in Orlando...an amazing night! It was an early birthday present. I had tickets pretty close to the stage that lined up perfectly with Stevie's mic stand. Then right before it started, lot of people decided to mosh pit it. It was super annoying and we couldn't see anything so we just kind of pushed through them and got right up behind the last row of seats in section A, which was only 5 or 6 rows from the stage. :)

[jedw]

yes I saw them in manchester, UK. 27.10.09
My first FM show, as big a sucker for a good guitar solo as I am, it was Stevie I was most excited to see. She almost made me cry with "storms".

Just a shame they chopped off Silver springs, the Glasgow ledgies know how I feel :(

And if they did the same WITH Christine, who wasn't thrown out of the band?

[LukeA]

Nope. Didn't come to Portland- the largest metro area in the country they skipped on the Unleashed tour.

Probably just as well, as they inexplicably played here twice on SYW tour. Plus, we're sick of Lindsey (3 solo shows in 18 months... no wonder why the first three rows at his Sep '08 solo show were all but empty)

[louielouie2000]

I opted out because I didn't have an interest in a Greatest Hits tour. When the kids have new material to support, I'll be up front in bells and whistles! :thumbsup:

[AgeOldDesire]

Yeah I did. Thanks to You Tube.

[PutTheBlameOnMe]

I saw them in Birmingham at the NIA. Paid to sit 21 rows back, but got right to the front by Lindsey's mic and even shook hands with him!

I also saw them on the last London show (This was almost a last minute decsion as I knew I would regret not going to as many gigs as I could), this time I was sat 2 tiers away from the stage, but it was great to have a good view of the stage without a 1000 heads in the way:laugh:

I seriously considered this after manchester 27.10.09 but ultimatly I was too lazy to travel :(

[Lala]

Yes twice...Calgary 6/23/09 and Edmonton 6/24/09...both make-up dates after cancellation due to illness. Two of the most amazing nights of my life!

[Moz]

I saw them just before you did - 6/5 in Saskatoon!

[belladonnadream]

:rolleyes: Cause they were.;)

[EnchantedKiwi]

Well, im going too! so technically yes :nod:

[belladonnadream]

Yes~ 2x.... First front row in Rochester 3-16-09....first time front row...amaaaazing:nod: and the second time was the 6-11-09 show at MSG 6 th row first tier all the way to the side by Lindsey...very cool to see the 2 different views.

[FMlex]

Due to these stupid things called college finals, I couldn't go to any of the Texas shows.

Boo. :(

I'm still depressed as hell about it, too.

:shocked: Sick of Lindsey? How is that possible!?! Wish I could see him solo! I did not get to see the Unleashed tour because of lack of transportation to Atlanta! I did see them during Say You Will and The Dance. Hopefully I'll get another chance!

Good thing you didnt travel to Tacoma, terrible show...

I mean it wasnt terrible. It just wasnt what I expected from my first Mac show. And from some youtube videos, one of thier weaker shows on this tour.

And Lindsey did have a good night. But when you pretty much go to see Stevie, it sorta irritates you...

[WildHeartCa]

Saw the Mac in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Atlantic City - I wish I could go to Australia

[SNicksed]

I went to both MSG shows and the Meadowlands show. :cool:

[Amlyn]

Also went to both MSG shows and East Rutherford. I also went to Kansas City since I was visiting friends there that weekend.

My favorite was the 2nd MSG show which I saw courtesy of the 7th row.

[ragrsrocalot]

I went to 2 shows, Nassau Coliseum in March , and Madison Square Garden in June.

[daniellaaarisen]

Row 1, seat 1 at the May 20th Oakland show. Best thing ever.

And I was supposed to go to the San Jose show the next night but my parents decided that it "wasn't a good idea" the day of the show... I couldn't even sell my tickets :(

[LiamMcConville]

Honda Center, Anaheim, CA. 11th row ticket, first row seat. ;)

[ILoveFM]

I went to the Atlanta show in April, my first Fleetwood Mac show. Floor seats, Section 9, seats 5 and 6! Great show!

[Nico]

:shocked: Sick of Lindsey? How is that possible!?! Wish I could see him solo! I did not get to see the Unleashed tour because of lack of transportation to Atlanta! I did see them during Say You Will and The Dance. Hopefully I'll get another chance!

If Lindsey were to go on a solo tour again and I went to every single show I still wouldn't be sick of him. Honestly, he's not active enough for me.:nod:

Similar sentiments here (re no new material)...although my first FMac show was in '74 and I DID see them on the Say You Will tour. And, despite my rantings here about Buckingham & Nicks, I have to admit, I DO kind of regret not seeing them and keeping my streak alive. But, DavidMN has taken up the slack for me. ;)

Wanna trade lives? I'm sure you'd love to go back to high school. It's thrilling, I promise.

[LukeA]

:shocked: Sick of Lindsey? How is that possible!?!

Well, I was mainly referring to his overly frequent trips to my market for shows. He loves the Portland area; friends of mine have spotted him all over town- even on days that don't correspond with any tour itinerary. The one time I ran into him (and whats-her-name), I was taken quite off guard.

But, anyways, Lindsey knows me from years back. He went out of his way to notice & spot me in Portland on the UTS tour (with a rather awkward & deliberate point, Mirage video style), and found me again on the GOS tour. After one song, he motioned to me (6th row on the aisle.. venue was practically empty), referring to the front section (empty) and looking confused. I threw my hands up. During one of the later songs (I'm So Afraid? World Turning? I don't know, it all blends together, honestly), I was practically falling asleep in my chair. Lindsey came over to my side of the stage, yelled (away from the microphone, but still audible in the small venue), which caught my attention- turns out he was looking at me, seemingly annoyed that I was bored. I shrugged and pointed to my wrist.

I guess Lindsey & I aren't friends anymore.

I went because I've seen one show on every UK tour since 1973 so I didn't want to "Break the Chain" and also it might be the last time (mind you I thought that for the SYW tour so what do I know)

They were pretty good I have to say but it did strike me as being the Lindsey Buckingham show. Stevie wasn't that animated but I think she's not too good these days with shows on consecutive nights (I went to Wembley on the 31st Oct)

I saw the Mac three times on the Unleashed tour -- my first times ever seeing the band perform.

I went to the first show of the tour -- Pitts PA -- All-Access 14th row aisle seat on Lindsey's side.

Then I went to both MSG shows: 1) All-Access 14th row aisle seat on Lindsey's side. 2) 2nd row, so stood right up at the stage, Lindsey's side -- Normal ticket (who knew?)

Favorite show: The first MSG was a work a work of art; the second MSG was a party.

[chriskisn]

Well as there isn't an "Intending to see them" button I can't vote. 11th December for me...

[SorcererJP]

After 19 years The Mac was back in the low countries. I simply don't want to speak about the debacle of the Time-line up in 1994 :-)

Alas, it was 5 years after I saw them last in Germany during the SYW-tour and i saw Mac in Antwerp...glued to the stage on the very very very first row at the feet of mr. Buckingham (could touch his pedals I wanted to) and saw them in Rotterdam (the day after) from 5th row (all standing) or something.

I were two magical nights and I wish all the Aussies and Kiwis the time of your life at the shows!

Yeah, the "Time"-tour visited Flanders too. I think it was in De Hallen @ Kortrijk, which shows you how small they were back then. I don't even know if that place is still used for concerts.

[Sleepless-Child]

Paris, October 17th, front row :D
It was probably the best night ever!

[BellaDonna93]

I saw Fleetwood Mac (Stevie!!!!) in real life!!! Have already told you my story about Stevie holding my hand and bla, bla, bla...lol :D
Best day in my life, no doubt!

[chazlightyear]

Yep My friend and i saw them in Sheffield, excellent, excellent and more excellent (if there is such a thing) And if anyones tired of seeing Lindsey in the states could they send him over here please!

[BTFLCHLD]

I opted out because I didn't have an interest in a Greatest Hits tour. When the kids have new material to support, I'll be up front in bells and whistles! :thumbsup: suppose you don't like the new stuff?

[Maccafan5000]

I saw them opening night in Pittsburgh, Rochester NY, Toronto, and Cleveland. I would've gone to more but I kinda ran out of money.

And I've seen Lindsey solo....a lot. Still not tired of him! If I can drive there/find a cheap flight, find a decently priced hotel, and get a ticket; I'd be there :)

Wish I could go to NZ!!!!

[Steviefan49]

Of course!!! I wouldn't ever miss them EVER! I saw our Houston, TX show May 2nd, and had the best time ever! I went with a good friend of mine, and met up with several others! Nothing like FM fans! :wavey:

[starshine]

Nope....like others have mentioned ....wasn't interested in spending my $$ for a greatest hits tour.....amoung other things......I personally don't feel that I've missed anything really......but I am happy for all those who went & had a great time.......to each his/her own......its all good......:nod:

[LorraineRN]

Yes, saw them in New Orleans. Didn't really know them before; fell in love with them that night.

[gfd1963]

I had 3rd row tickets for Sheffield but was devastated I couldn't go due to illness. Slowly coming to terms with it but at least I have memories of seeing them on the SYW tour.

[Matthew]

I still can´t believe that I was part of it... part of that world of qwesome Fleetwood Mac music in live concerts.... I was in Berlin. Never forget that... first time... and I hope not for the last time. It would be just perfect, if Stevie would tour solo in Europe some day... probably I would prefer that to something like new album, really.

In my opinion, Stevie´s solo show is better for us Stevie´s fans. Just better songs. It´s not that on Fleetwood Mac concerts she has few songs, but it´s about which songs... I´d really rather hear Fall From Grace, Edge Of Seventeen, Rock´n´roll or .. i don´t know... Beauty and the Beast, than something like Storms, Sara or Landslide.
