I bow down before the Alter Of Mac Awesomeness... I am not worthy!! I am not worthy!! :laugh: :lol:

[fairydust75]

Wow! It looks so much better on the lazer disc. The VHS copy is so fuzzie.

[vivfox]

That was awesome!!!

[jbrownsjr]

Man I miss when they were raw, not overproduced and amazing!!!

[PenguinHead]

No matter how many times I've seen it, that clip is always stunning to me. Fleetwood Mac was great live band without 10 support players.

The first time I ever saw them live was a Mirage tour show, and it was great. They had a fine set list too. I feel lucky to have experienced them in concert purely by themselves.

Funny thing is, the press, as well as the band, made a big deal about how they were back together after a such a long span of time: 2 YEARS!!! How time (spans) have changed...and elongated!

[SuperFleetwood]

Im glad that everyone enjoyed this!!!!!!! I encoded it so you can see it better!!!! laser disc rocks!!

[TerraRhiannon]

The quality of this is like nothing i've ever seen from the mirage show, thanks for sharing it rob.

I really love the flowers on hers & Christine's mic's

The important thing would have been to keep the backups to a minimum & to keep their time onstage (or active backstage) down. Even on the Mirage tour, Tony Todaro played some drums on "Tusk," Ray played rhythm guitar (not a huge deal but still) on about three or four songs ("Second Hand News," "Gypsy," "Go Your Own Way"), & Jeff Sova played the USC parts on a synthesizer for "Tusk," & added a synthesizer pad to "Hold Me."

Very little, all in all, considering today's practice of keeping the backing boys active from the very start of the set to the very close. But, as we all know, every band is doing this now. The appeal of that live rock band sound, which was so popular from the late '50s through the late '70s, seems to have nearly disappeared, thanks to live rock's move into a more variety-hour or Vegas-show style, where the rapping or the dancing become the focus.

Even small-time bands that play in clubs & casinos prerecord their tracks & their harmonies. They can't afford to hire backing musicians (like Fleetwood Mac) but they still want everything to sound "perfect"--& so do their buyers.

[SuperFleetwood]

Yep, No problem!

This must be an omen, just as i started to read your translation of the end of Sisters, guess what song randomly came blasting through my headphones... out of the hundreds of stevie/Mac tunes.. So anyway while im at here goes trying to work out klasjdajski bit.. again. lol:wavey:
PS no luck!!! i give up... haha

[LittleCharmer]

That crazy load of gibberish is even better in HD!

[Kena]

Thanks for posting this video! It's so clear! I can see clearly now.

Can someone please tell me what that thing is that Mick wipes across his face/nose at the beginning - around 0:22. :shrug:

Also, I also forgot how pretty Christine looked during this concert. It's so cute at around 6:06 when Chris and Linds are being all cute...and I love that look she gives him!

I love how I can take a nice closeup view of Stevie's face and teeth...and hair. Personally this is one of my least favorite Stevie looks as far as her hair, but hey, it was the 80's. She reminds me of Jem!

Aside for all the crazy gibberish at the end (as LittleCharmer appropriately referred to it) I think Stevie could totally pull this song off with her current voice. I know it would make Louie very happy if she did!

So true. Firstly, it's sad how the days of a 3 or 4 piece band, are gone. Even the crappy little bands I sometimes do sound for, are now 6 or 7 piece bands. And the bigger acts I do sound for, used to be 20 or so inputs...now, it's nothing for them to be 35-40 inputs. Less is more? Not these days.

And yes, on the playing with tracks. One hugely popular 80's "metal" cover band, that I do sound for,(I lightly use the term "metal", because they play tons of Bon Jovi, Journey, and Whitesnake - all singalong stuff), plays along to vocal tracks(all the high harmonies) and keyboard tracks(because the keyboard player owns the band, and gets too drunk to play the parts live).

[jcalzaretta]

In my opinion, without a doubt, this is the greatest FM live performance. I continue to be blown away by this performance after all these years. A great rock and roll song to start with but Stevie really blew this away. Amazing.

For me it was that second round of "whrrrrrgrrrrbl" that puts this one over the top. The first round is surprising and cool, but the second round just makes it all seem supernatural- like she is really being exorcised! :eek: It could have only been improved if her head spun around 360 degrees while she projectile vomited.

[SuperFleetwood]

around 0.22 its called a flexatone!
