+1 for Storms, my favorite FM song ever. <3

Brown Eyes was also done during the 1987/1988 tour. I heard Christine say during an interview during that time that her favorite songs to do live were Brown Eyes and Sara. So I think she likes Tusk. I just think since she has been away for so long that se better stick to the hits.

On The Dance Tour in 1997 that's how Lindsey played it....I think it came right before or after Big Love in the setlist. For the entire 2009 tour, they played it with the full band, although I want to say Stevie was off-stage..? (I can't remember for sure about Stevie)

I never had issue with Stand Back's inclusion in the Fleetwood Mac set, but I can say with certainty, I did not miss it during the show I saw in October. I always thought Everybody Finds Out could have been a good replacement for Stand Back if Stevie was looking for something fast/fun. But, at this point, like most of Say You Will, I'm afraid EFO has faded into obscurity for good.

Yes, I don't get the impression she particularly likes them either. Think About Me, Honey Hi and Never Forget are great songs.

I agree about EFO. Obscure songs alienate an audience, but a DANCE song has a better chance than most of lighting a fire under their feet, even if they don't recognize it.

I can imagine walking out of the arena and hearing people ask each other what that song was. Is it an FM song? What album is it on? That was really great!

Anytime we can baby, every time we can ... get away.

I just think they aren't the most upbeat (musically) of her material and harder to do live. Not harder to play, but they are softer and quieter than say Say You Love Me or Think About Me or Don't Stop etc etc. They're actually a bit mournful, presumably based on her relationship with Dennis…and they are awesome studio confections….but I think like Oh Daddy harder to pull off in an arena full of shouting, drinking casual fans. In a more intimate setting, a smaller theater venue, probably much better.

Ooooo, I would love for them to do that. Play the Beacon in NYC. Of course, that's a ways down the line.

isn't the current set list just pandering to the 50-70 year old fans who grew up on rumors and ( they are probably banking on ) can and will pay the prices they are asking for tickets .

And yet, I was subjected to Oh Daddy more times than I care to remember.

I was actually going to make a thread about how much I missed Stand Back.

Villavic 02-22-2015 11:24 AM

I loved the SYW tour version with the percussion intro. And also how she ended the song in the Tango tour


But yes it's good the song took a rest
