[BLY]

I wonder if it’s with a band or just Lindsey?

[sleepless child]

I'll be there! This is very exciting.

[michelej1]

I am so glad that he’s keeping up with the times and giving us something to relish.

[TrueFaith77]

I can’t tell you all how this made my day.

Great idea.

Hope there is new music too, but I was just happy to see him and hear him.

This is a big breakthrough for him.

love it!

LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM ANNOUNCES INTIMATE LIVESTREAM SHOW
Lindsey Buckingham Announces Intimate Livestream Show

Lindsey Buckingham has announced details of a special livestream performance for fans on Saturday 5th December 2020.

The show, which will take place at 8:30pm Eastern Standard Time (EST), will be live from Lindsey Buckingham’s home studio in Los Angeles, and will feature hits and fan favourites from his iconic catalogue. The performance will also remain live for 48 hours post-show for ticket holders to enjoy, and fans from around the world will also have access to purchase special VIP packages for the show.

Tickets for the event will go on-sale tomorrow, Friday 13th November.

Buckingham recently joined Stevie Nicks and Mick Fleetwood by participating in the ‘Dreams’ viral TikTok Challenge created by Nathan Apodaca (@doggface208), where he can be seen riding a horse while sipping on Ocean Spray cranberry juice.

When discussing his upcoming livestream event on Twitter, Buckingham said, “I have been laying low lately, just like everyone else and I haven’t seen any of you for a while, so I thought I’d give a little intimate concert from my home studio. It is going to be on December 5th and you can all watch it from the comfort of your own homes.

Lindsey Buckingham, who is widely considered one of the greatest living guitar players and songwriters of our time is also a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and three time GRAMMY award winner. He worked with Fleetwood Mac is as a producer, guitarist, vocalist and chief songwriter for the band, but also has had a successful career as a solo artist, as evidenced on his 2018 solo anthology, which spanned three CDs.

For fans keen to hear some of these iconic songs, this intimate show will allow them to hear 45 minutes of the artist performing live from his studio, with some VIP options including a Q&A package. Tickets for the event can be bought from Lindsey Buckingham’s website directly.

[UnwindedDreams]

There's a presale going on right now, FYI

I don't know the secret code though: https://arcivr.live/store/athome

[soul_drifter333]

I just got the standard ticket. There's a nice VIP package with a Q&A session for $125 but I don't have the funds to splurge right now.

[tango87]

Got my ticket! He's never made it solo to the UK yet, so this will have to do for my first live Lindsey concert (although it will be a late night...)

[UnwindedDreams]

Holy smokes. The Q&A is sold out already.
Anyone here that got it. Ask him to play "Wrong"!
Thank you.

[sleepless child]

I saw the VIP was already sold out. But a 15.00 ticket to see Lindsey is great by me. I can't wait. My birthday present to myself. I'd like to see other entertainers do this also.

So excited for this--Cannot wait. Hoping he plays "Soul Drifter" He actually promised to on the second leg of the most recent tour. Fingers crossed

[bombaysaffires]

Someone was paying attention to feedback after that previous live online gig!

I couldn't get online this morning and of course the VIP pkg sold out.

Will have to rely on all of you who got those spots to fill us in in great detail!!

[mitzo]

45 minutes.

[TrueFaith77]

Gutted the VIP sold out.

I hope those who got it use their power for good.

[elle]

hope so too! figure Q&A will probably be similar to his recent zoom one.

there are several huge LB fans i know who will definitely ask some interesting questions. then there will always be random clueless people who will waste a question on something we all know answers to already.

hope there will be lots of questions about the new album, future recording and collaborations questions, requests for adding a new song or some not recently played ones in 45 min set that will follow Q&A...

one thing that really bugs me is there was no Q&A option without merch. that made OUS tickets with merch shipping ridiculously priced, effectively cutting out of QA portion fans in Europe, Australia, NZ, Asia etc. But at least they will finally get a chance to see him solo! :thumbsup:

i hope he does more of these, and this is just the first of many!! :nod:

Same for me. VIP was sold out in a blink. :D

I'm ok with a regular ticket. It'll be plenty of time to see him live. :nod:

[David]

then there will always be random clueless people who will waste a question on something we all know answers to already. I plan to ask Lindsey about “Caution” and his expansive, emotional attack on the outro, with its disruptive counterbalance of authentic cadence and plagal cadence. My guess is that he was making a topically charged political statement by such overt reliance on hetero-capitalist modulational forms, as if he were adumbrating the ultimate kiss-off to the neonormative resistance that has yet to fully breach in his relationship with the conservative hegemon John McVie.

Precisely my case. I know merch won't be sent to my country so I'd be paying $125 for just a 45 min Q&A.

Everyone send me a dollar or I'll ask the most predictable, inane question possible :p

[soul_drifter333]

Like the last webinar when someone asked him to say Hi to Stevie for them?? :rolleyes::rolleyes:

[David]

Like the last webinar when someone asked him to say Hi to Stevie for them?? :rolleyes::rolleyes:That is so cringe. Do people do that deliberately to make asses of themselves — are they trying to annoy the guest artist?

[secondhandchain]

I love LB but really charging people during a pandemic? Everyone else is doing free shows. I can see charging for VIP but come on. You are being very M$ck Fl$$tw$$d.

Shippers see what they want to see. They still think Lindsey and Stevie will run off into the sunset :rolleyes:

Melissa and Sheryl do charge for their stream concerts.

Maybe it's going to be harder for him physically to do a 45 min show after his medical challenges.

I say let the guy get paid for playing!:woohoo:
Pumped for December 5!

I don't work for free - why should he or any other artist?

Even during a time of economic stress, his art has value to me. YMMV.

[sleepless child]

I don't think fifteen dollars is much to ask for a muscian of his caliber. I am looking forward to it.

[soul_drifter333]

I don't think fifteen dollars is much to ask for a muscian of his caliber. I am looking forward to it.

Me either It's the cost of a CD and you get the visuals too Wish it would be downloadable but I'm sure someone will screen capture it. Hopefully, someone will screen capture and share the Q&A! (hint hint)

I've seen plenty of musicians charging for virtual concerts. The only ones I've can remember seeing that are free are benefits and they want donations. I get if you don't have the finds but there will be plenty of other options next year for concerts. I would rather pay $15 for a virtual concert then the $100s they are charging for actual concerts. You can better believe the prices will only go up as musicians try to recoup the money they lost this year.

[FM77]

I saw the VIP was already sold out. But a 15.00 ticket to see Lindsey is great by me. I can't wait. My birthday present to myself. I'd like to see other entertainers do this also.

There are many artists doing this right now.

[sleepless child]

I bought my ticket, but I haven't gotten an email with the code yet. Has anyone else?

[kenzo]

I bought my ticket, but I haven't gotten an email with the code yet. Has anyone else?

Yes, nearly immediately... the conf. email was from [email protected] if that helps.

[Lee]

I signed up on Tuesday. Got my email to log in & code. I'll have to write myself a note for Saturday @ 8:30 p.m. ET or I might forget.

I miss seeing live music, any live music. Like I didn't even see any local, live music this year. :(

Looking forward to seeing Lindsey live even if it's on my laptop.

Lee :)

[sue]

I’m getting quite excited, even though I won’t see him as it happens, it will be the early hours here. (I will stream it the following day)
Live music hooray...looking forward to hearing him so much..

[sleepless child]

I didn't get my email so I bought another ticket. Again no email. So I emailed them. Someone actually called me and said my server was kicking the email back as spam. I have another email account on Gmail and we tried that and lo and behold I got my email with the code. The Gentleman couldn't have been nicer and said he would refund one of the tickets I bought. When I thanked him for helping me he said, I really don't want you to miss the concert. This might be my favorite way to see a concert from now on.

I’m looking forward to the show tonight. I hope he has some additional musicians with him. If not, that’s ok but I prefer a band experience when he does a “full show”

[HomerMcvie]

I'd rather hear him SOLO than with the karaoke tracks.

I like the karaoke tracks....it’s like his albums.😎

[UnwindedDreams]

I hope he has some additional musicians with him. If not, that’s ok but I prefer a band experience when he does a “full show”
The only other performers I'd think he'd have would be his children if they play instruments.

I never got to see his 2012 One Person Show Tour (I did a number of IYD shows that year) so I'm glad I get this set tonight.

Really thrilled about The ACLU fundraising.

[Nicks Fan]

From someone who was at his Q and A.

Lindsey said that the new album won’t be out until the summer. That he’s hoping to do a collaboration with a younger female, but doesn’t know anyone specific. Even said that he and Mick were talking about doing something. Also, that once the pandemic blows over, he plans on touring the US, Europe and Australia.

[SteveMacD]

I'd rather hear him SOLO than with the karaoke tracks.

Precisely why I’m a fan of Richard Thompson.

[UnwindedDreams]

Bleed to Love her was amazing. Better than when I heard it at The Classic. He sounds really good.

[Storms123]

Bleed to Love her was amazing. Better than when I heard it at The Classic. He sounds really good.

He sounds amazing. Fantastic And looks so healthy too.
Agreed on Bleed to Love Her
And I would love to know which of Stevie's minions logged on to watch it---because you know someone from her coven did

[UnwindedDreams]

What happened to his vocals is miraculous.
NGBA was celestial. Even the whisper sing was crisp and high.

Stevie might be watching and typing in the chat box if she's not watching a Criminal Minds rerun and eating takeout from Ruth's Chris

[soul_drifter333]

Appears the system crashed midway through. Anyone capture the Q&A or at least the transcript? Pretty please :wavey:

[TrueFaith77]

The only time it worked fo me was about the last 30 seconds of NGBA and the first minute of go insane

Very disappointing and no response for the last 45 min from support email

[UnwindedDreams]

The Edge's guitar tech is watching. Dallas Schoo. Awesome guy. I met him at U2360.
He commented in the message section that Lindsey is one of the finest guitarists on the planet.

[juniper]

Lindsey: Sounds great, looks great!
Tech: not so much :(
Hope it comes back soon!!!

[Storms123]

When in doubt......ZOOM

[stevierocks87]

It was working great for me until it went down.

He sounds THE BEST I have EVER heard him live.

Everyone else just getting a "the show will continue shortly" screen?

[Storms123]

When in doubt......ZOOM

And it's back...Big Love

[sleepless child]

Well this is a bummer. Loved Shut us down. My favorite song of his. I was really enjoying the show till it crashed. All I have now is a picture of him in his chair looking pissed. Oh now the screen says the show will continue shortly.

[Nicks Fan]

Yes that is what I am getting.

[Storms123]

So Afraid is fantastic.
And he played "Stephanie"

[sleepless child]

So I lost most of it during Go Insane. Caught some of So Afraid and Go your own way. At least we have two more days to rewatch

[soul_drifter333]

Hopefully they have a backup that wasn't being broadcast and we can watch it on demand later. Either way I got to see enough to know that he sounds great.

[juniper]

Did anyone see/hear anything between Go Insane and Big Love?

[UnwindedDreams]

I lost during Go Insane and didn't get any Big Love

A recording's going to be made available to watch for 2 days.

[Sighs in Canadian]

He and Mick are speaking again?

[UnwindedDreams]

He and Mick are speaking again? You'd have to check with Mick. We don't believe Lindsey around here, just Mick's accounts.:laugh:

[goldustsongbird]

It's 11:30 here, and he told me not to call or text after 10. I'll let you know tomorrow. ;)

[bombaysaffires]

Wasn't able to watch as had other things already planned for today.

Sorry to hear about the technical glitches. I bet somebody got an earful of unhappy Lindsey.....:rolleyes:

Did anyone to ask or at least hear/read any of the Q&A? Dying to know what questions got asked......:eek:

Like that is how I would describe him in on word last night. All that he's been through, to come back like that; it was amazing. And yes, I would agree, the best live performance from him that I'd ever seen. I was really getting into it, of course, until it went down. I didn't see Big Love. Then I got back into it.
And it cut off again @ the end when he was talking. I hope he has a good summer tour. He deserves it.

Lee :)

[goldustsongbird]

Saw this last night before bed. Imperfect capture, but I was pleasantly surprised by his voice! I didn't know what he would sound like.

You probably already know but you can see the whole performance now on the same link you used for livestream, with no interruptions, and including Big Love. It’s just missing the end of Go Insane.

Too bad about crap internet hiccups. I’m sure that soured the experience for him and he won’t do it again. (Maybe also time to switch your internet provider Lindsey!)

He did sound amazing and while he’s probably not, I’m glad he didn’t prerecord the performance but tried to do it all live.

On the negative note, he played it safe and went with all known staples. Although people outside the US who hadn’t have a chance to see OMS live had their first experience with OMS Stephanie, ISA and GYOW. But he should have thrown in at least one unexpected song - either RAB with outro like they did in DC in 2018 or a song he never played live yet.

[UnwindedDreams]

On the negative note, he played it safe and went with all known staples.

I thought he would've done SWS. I was actually most excited to hear Go Insane solo version bc I hadn't heard it since 2011 but then IT DROPPED... to the forest floor:]

[elle]

Ha I was chatting with people during the performance and we were sure he was gonna do acoustic SWS. So I was actually happy he went OMS route and did 2 electric songs. Although I was hoping for Come after Stephanie. But yeah he should have done RAB. Or like when he did 2 songs he never did before at 92Y back in 2011. There was a mix of casual audience and huge fans there, and he catered to casual audience only which was lazy and ridiculous. And if he would have done something unexpected we would not be complaining about the streaming company after the show, we’d be excited about new stuff we heard. Now we can be just excited about fantastic performance he gave and a great q&a before it and that he’s healthy and happy. Which is a lot but we always want more! 😂

I didn't buy a ticket, but for 15 bucks, I would have expected a leeetle bit more. That is one safe setlist. In any case, I'm glad he's in good health. The one song I saw was excellent.

[Storms123]

Just out of curiosity, if Stevie charged $15.00 to hear her sing "Dreams", "Rhiannon", "Landslide", "Gypsy", and "Gold Dust Woman", would people be equally miffed. I am not poking the bear, generally curious.

People around here are miffed Stevie can breathe.

i don't think that has anything to do with NIcks. i've seen people complain about show not being free as well as some Nicks fans for some reason complaining that is too cheap. neither makes much sense.

I prefer not to talk about Stevie in the Lindsey forum. That's why I don't even go near the Stevie forum.

Some people around here are miffed Lindsey survived and it's doing so well he can perform from home with friends and family and no FM around. Yeah... :rolleyes:

[goldustsongbird]

i think that setlist is way too safe yes. but seriously you are complaining about $15? the fantastic performance we got was worth way more than that. :nod:

No, not complaining! It's just that usually we can count on a more diverse setlist from him. $15 is perfectly fine for a live-streamed concert, especially when it comes with a Q&A, which I don't think I took into account when I posted. Is there somewhere I can watch the full thing?

EDIT: Found it on RSL.

Personally, yeah. :lol: I wouldn't go for that. I was disappointed by what I saw of 24K, but the less said about that in a Linds thread, the better.

tbh, had I known ahead of time that Lindsey was doing this, I probably would've gotten a ticket! I knew he was doing something, but I didn't make a mental note of the date, and then it was like, oh, it's today. It's now. Whoops.

[Storms123]

Thanks all. Appreciate the perspective. Like I said, was curious. The set list didn't bother me in the least. I was just happy to hear him sing so well, and look so healthy. "Bleed to Love Her" sounded better than I've ever heard it.
I won't get into the "cost", but I would happily pay another $15.00 to have him do this again.

[soul_drifter333]

Bleed to Love her was a solid opener! I think I prefer this outro to the vocalizations that we're used to. I like this format, too, just Lindsey on his own in front of the camera.

[cbBen]

You may still be able to buy a ticket and see the show. It's available for 48 hours.

[michelej1]

I thought he sounded great. Plus, he didn’t do any of the slow dragging songs I was dreading. I was hoping that he would tease us with at least one new tune though.

[michelej1]

when you log in LB show site it says "All proceeds support the ACLU."

Nice. As he said, the last four years ...

[sue]

Nothing wrong with the set list... he sounded fantastic and looked healthy.
That’s the main thing.

[UnwindedDreams]

We can wish he debuted things in the setlist though remember the description of the concert from the announcement in November was that he was playing hit songs from across his career.

Within hits are classics such as Bleed, ISA, NGBA. Shut Us Down has become a classic as it's been done since 06(??) and was in a major motion picture.

Now, speaking from my heart: This was his official return to performing for the international public after having a traumatic event.

I was happy to pay the $16 grand total and I've played the recording a few times after. I think it was a deal. I've shared the link with friends and they've been amazed as well.

The freezing is not Lindsey's fault. And it's bizarre to suggest that heads should roll because of that. It's enraged persons who want to piss all over any joy in Lindsey's continuing story of a musician who can actually play an instrument as an expert.

Quietly donating to an organization RBG made big.

Thanks, I deactivated Facebook during the election.

It’s amazing how much negativity people like to immediately jump into, isn’t it?

Many people enjoyed the show but they make it like no one can enjoy it or we're an obsessed fan that has a bad life.
Too bad they couldn't see the comments in the Arcivr side chat. So much kinship.

Let them watch their 4yo concert with snippets of title tracks and a less than 3 minute song that WW made sound like Foghat.

Yeah, it really sucks when you’re excited and trying to enjoy something and some have to be all negative about it...

Anything you'd like to say about the At Home with Lindsey Buckingham event or you just wanted the last word?

Did anyone notice he cut his finger around "I'm so Afraid". I think it was before he sang it. I noticed him looking at his finger a few times and later saw that it looked like there was blood on it. And he kept on playing.

I thought it was pretty badass... Kept playing, and didn’t say a word until one brief mention of it at the end. Thought his voice sounded strong; I’m looking forward to the new material and tour. The real positive from this for me is that i think he has a bunch of good years left. I was worried he might not.

Not many his age can do what he can do. Great positive stuff for real fans of his.

Fantastic to see Lindsey in such fine form! Thank goodness the concert was made available to us to rewatch so I could catch the songs I missed during the "technical issues." Well worth the low price of admission. I felt "Go Insane" was especially powerful (too bad it was cut off)!

When I think of how it wasn't so long ago that I feared I would never hear Lindsey sing again, I feel such a surge of gratitude not only for this show but for the fact that he still gives so much of himself for the fans - bleeding fingers and all!

I missed that; will have to go back and watch. He said in an interview a little while ago (I forget which one --- was the one with Anthony Mason??) that he'd lost all his callouses from not playing as much. Guess they're still not back.

INDSEY BUCKINGHAM LOOKS PAST ‘VERY DIFFICULT YEAR’ ON LIVESTREAM

DAVID CHIU
Published: December 7, 2020

Lindsey Buckingham made poignant remarks during a Saturday night solo livestream show from his home studio that encapsulated a difficult period for everyone.

“Well, this is a song that has been around for a very long time.” the longtime former Fleetwood Mac member said while introducing “Never Going Back Again” from 1977's Rumours. “It's one of many that has gone through some changes on stage, and the context of what it means has changed as well: As we evolve as people, as we experience different things. Sometimes, the same lyrics can take on whole new contexts.

“Suffice it to say,” Buckingham continued, “we had a difficult year with all that's gone on — some might say a difficult four years. I think that from my personal experiences of the last few years — my separation from Fleetwood Mac, having a bypass after that, and then, of course, the pandemic — it's been a series of events that I didn't see coming, and certainly we've all have had to deal with these things in our own way. All I can say is that I truly believe that what's coming in the next few years is going to make total sense out of what has been, and it's going to be very healing for all of us.”

The livestream show was Buckingham's first public performance since he underwent open-heart surgery in 2019. He was scheduled to go on tour this year before COVID-19 altered those plans.

A seated Buckingham played a nearly one-hour set of his solo and Fleetwood Mac songs, surrounded by a mixing desk and other gear in his studio. He alternated between acoustic and electric guitars, kicking off the intimate show with “Bleed to Love Her,” which first appeared as a live take on Fleetwood Mac's The Dance and then later on their Say You Will studio album.

He followed with “Trouble” and “Shut Us Down” from his solo albums Law and Order and Under the Skin, respectively. At one point, Buckingham was just more than halfway into his slow-burning performance of “Go Insane” when a technical glitch unfortunately interrupted the stream. He acknowledged the issue after the broadcast resumed.

Buckingham also unearthed “Stephanie,” a very deep cut from Buckingham Nicks, his 1973 pre-Fleetwood Mac collaboration with Stevie Nicks. “This is an instrumental I had written,” he said before playing the song. “I remember I asked Stevie, 'What do you think we ought to call it?' 'Why don't you call it "Stephanie"?' That's Stevie for you,” Buckingham added with a laugh.

Despite recent health issues, Buckingham's voice and shimmering guitar playing were in fine form throughout the set. As always, “Big Love” and “I'm So Afraid” remain mesmerizing highlights of his live performances. He ended the livestream with a rip-roaring version of “Go Your Own Way,” then thanked fans while hinting at future plans.

“This is great. I loved doing it," Buckingham said. "I'm looking forward to seeing all of you down the road a bit, maybe end of the summer. Be well, be safe, and we'll see you soon.”

Well maybe Yippee should be merged. It’s nondescript and we won’t be able to find it six months from now.

They usually get most attention here than in the forums they really want to be. They come here only to get the attention they so desperately need, and not because they want to talk about Lindsey.
I don't like Stevie and I have no idea what they talk about in her forum. That's pretty normal. To lurk around here is pretty sad. And abnormal.

Yes, he cut his finger and continue playing. Stevie would have never done that. :laugh::laugh:
