Obviously, you're a fan, and I didn't mean to sound harsh, but why should they do it for free? I don't (and wouldn't) work for free. They've always driven us a little crazy, but that's part of their charm (or not, for some :lol: ), and I can't imagine why they would suddenly change now. They put on a heck of a great concert, and everyone around me was having a blast. That's enough for me. If we get a DVD or CD of this tour, for instance, I'd be thrilled, but I don't expect one, and I won't be angry if it doesn't happen, because that's just the way they are, and always have been.

Fleetwood Mac Live IS ultra boring. Oh well. It's way better than Fleetwood Mac: Dead.

Yeah, there isn't a name for this tour is there?

Didn't Stevie have a brief no-name tour a year or so back? I guess this tour can be called "The 2013 Fleetwood Mac Tour". Catchy, I know. :cool:

What do the T-Shirts say?

Many people called the 1997 tour "The Dance" tour, but actually it's The Reunion tour, cause all merchandise (t-shirts, caps) say so. So I always remember it as The Reunion tour.

So what does the merchandise say this time?

In keeping with Lindsey's description of the band as the big machine, I'll suggest the "Big ATM Machine" tour.:D

Just "Live 2013"

So many artists put in the personal effort and/or hire creative talent to give them a graphically appealing and creative context. Fleetwood Mac is the complete opposite, offering nothing but very bland and boring visual rehashes, with no distinction. Given that this their second go around of redundancy, without any substantial new material, you would think they would want to somehow define it. It's as easy as giving the tour a creative name!

Perhaps it's unfair to compare Fleetwood Mac to lots of other artists I love and follow. But I can't escape the fact that Fleetwood Mac ranks at the bottom when it comes to their marketing tactics, product offerings, and art direction.

ESPECIALLY for a band with such a compelling visual flair!
