And how long did they play for ?
I'm off to Leeds at the end of the month and will have problems returning to our Hotel, but don't care too much, I'm too excited.

Now this was an excellent night although my feet and back are killing me :lol: I've seen the Mac for a couple of times in the past six years but it just wasn't the same without Christine. I'll cherish tonight for a long time :angel:

Just watched the above clip of "Songbird". It may be one of the most moving performances of the song yet...

Simply a beautiful rendition. Thank God Christine is back.

Again an amazing show! Here are some of the videos I made of the first night, will try to upload my videos of last night later today.

The second night at Ziggo Dome was rather good. Gold Dust Woman was unexpectedly (for me) the highlight with the McVies doing very enjoyable extended jamming in that measured and low-key style of theirs. Christine's presence inevitably adds a lot, whether it's her taking the solo in Don't Stop or just sitting on the side chatting with John when Stevie is doing her Gypsy intro. And Songbird at the end should be mandatory at every FM concert. Nevermind the curfew.

I last saw them 12 years ago and while not much had changed, at least back then Stevie made some sort of attempt at the high vocal bits of certain old songs. Now she just dodged most of them. It's a very cliched complaint by now but it does tend to bother me a bit because those parts were intended as the climaxes of songs at the time. Gypsy in particular was lacking because of this.

A new album with some songs based on the instrumentalists' slow jams could really be something because that's where they seem the most comfortable. Though there will inevitably be some uptempo material, it wouldn't be FM otherwise.

Thanks to Mr. Shackin' Up for the small meet-up last night. :thumbsup:

I hope that Songbird stays in the setlist. It seems to make such a difference to many. Maybe now that Christine's hand is healed it will.

That sounded divine. I can always tell if it's rushed vs perfect because I get tears in my eyes.
