Hi all.I'm still dead from last night.I got there around 6:30pm with my friends which they always tag along to the Connecticut shows with me since 2007.
I had a ball last night at the Mohegan Sun. The concert was awesome.Stevie was awesome as always.Lindsey was on fire with his guitar .Mick and John keeping the band on time as always . For a band that there in their 60's kick a$$ last night for over two hours of continuous entertainment . Most people at that age are ready to retire and work part time as Walmart greeters.I have nothing against doing a greeting job there. I loved the new tunes and again Lindsey said they will get released next week. The sound was great.The lighting was great.The jumbo video in the center was great as my friend said. I had goosebumps when Sisters came on.It was so great to hear Sisters live.I hope they wont drop it.John done an awesome job thumping on his bass.Thanks John you are the best. As Landslide came on .I shed a tear thinking of my parents and my late sister which was a couple of years younger then Stevie. Mick was great hammering out his solo in World Turning. Stevie sang her heart out on Standback,Dreams,Silversprings.Gypsy,Sara. Stevie look so beautiful,Slim her hair was so beautiful and wonder if she is trying to catch up to Crystal Gayle 's hair length. It was a pleasure to bump into all of you Ledgies at the show.As I was thinking of the past as I went to the concerts on my own and have nobody to chat to . Advent of the internet and the forums got all of us together into one big FM family and have fun at the shows.Most of you probably agree with me. I want to thank Mark ,Steven,Caitlin and Donna and other friends for you time to chat last night I enjoy it very much. We thought we will get away with shooting vids in the section we were sitting in.we got flash lighted from security during Gypsy,in other then that he did not bother us on taking photos.I still have to go through the photos and vids before I share them here. I will add more when it come to me. |

Concert: Fleetwood Mac in Uncasville, CT Story by John Voket SoundSpike Contributor Published April 22, 2013 02:36 PM After enjoying modest success as a hard rocking blues band throughout the late 1960s and early '70s, Fleetwood Mac catapulted its presence to the center of the rock-and-roll radar screen in 1975, after acquiring the talents of a pair of musical star-crossed lovers -- Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. Thirty-eight years and several personnel changes later, Fleetwood Mac is on the road again, headlining a world tour that will see them playing shows through October. While the rhythm section of band co-founders Mick Fleetwood and John McVie continues to anchor the band's material -- including a couple of brand new songs -- the talents of Buckingham and Nicks were a driving force behind the band's satisfying two-and-a-half hour show Saturday (5/20) at Connecticut's Mohegan Sun Arena. Opening with the upbeat "Second Hand News," Fleetwood Mac wove its way through a hit-laden set of material, inserting a few lesser-known cuts and reworking several others enough to keep things interesting, but not so much as to frustrate the fans. Since the current tour is celebrating the 35th Anniversary of the monster selling album "Rumors," nearly a third of the songs played were drawn from that seminal project. "The Chain," "Dreams," and "Don't Stop," were delivered virtually note for note from the album. But other cuts like "Gold Dust Woman," with its extended frenetic jam, the sprightly acoustic "Never Going Back Again," and explosive "Go Your Own Way," seemed to be infused with renewed energy that fired up both the band and audience. Two new songs that Buckingham teased would be on a soon-to-be-released EP were well received. The medium-tempo "Sad Angel" showcased some great tight harmonies between Nicks and Buckingham, while "Eyes of the World" was amped up by Fleetwood's thundering drum rolls. The show also featured "Without You," a long lost ballad that Nicks said was recently rediscovered. She explained that it was not only the song that convinced Mick Fleetwood to ask the duo to join the band, but also represented the epitome of love songs generated between herself and Buckingham when they were young lovers making their way into the music business in 1970. "Rhiannon," "Sisters of the Moon," "Sara" and "Gypsy" provided additional opportunities for Nicks to do what she does best, delving into the character of each subject and articulating the material as though it was being sung from a first-person perspective. Her vocals on "Landslide" were almost overpowered by the audience singing along, but instead of tolerating it, Nicks embraced the accompaniment graciously thanking the fans and complimenting them for their enthusiasm. Despite Nicks' costume changes and occasional break away spin dancing, Buckingham consistently remained centerpiece of the show, switching between acoustic and electric guitars and mesmerizing with blistering leads and staccato rhythm playing. His solo take on "Big Love," was unmatched, as a huge banner unfurled behind him serving as a giant vertical projection screen and amplifying his slight frame to three story high proportions. Buckingham also approached "Tusk" differently, taking a couple of verses in slow, free form before the familiar drumbeat and blaring horn samples kicked in. The Nicks solo hit "Stand Back" represented the band's single departure from the Fleetwood Mac catalog, but it seemed to get the entire band rejuvenated, including bassist McVie, who up until that point, remained glued to the right of Fleetwood's drum kit. The chugging bass line saw McVie moving back and forth to the beat, apparently enjoying the novelty groove. The first encore provided a chance for Fleetwood to take an extended drum solo, which proved he still has the stamina to churn an audience into a primal frenzy. The second encore brought the energy level back down as the band closed out the show with the sweet strains of "Silver Springs" -- a number that was intended for inclusion on "Rumors," but originally saw the light of day as the flip side to the "Don't Stop" single. With all of the choices available to music fans and concertgoers this spring and summer, it might be easy to relegate Fleetwood Mac to the "been there, seen that" category. But based on the sheer quality of the band's performance during stop nine of this extended tour, and the quantity of hits they are stacking into the setlist, the current Fleetwood Mac tour should be prioritized as a "must see." |
