This one should be in the Post Rumours forum because it has nothing to do LB's firing. Plus it makes me want to hurl.

They really shouldn’t do Go Your Own Way. They left Christine’s songs alone for the most part when she was gone from the band, they should do the same for Lindsey. It would just add to the discomfort of his not being there.

there is a thread on this already in post-rumours forum.

What? You don't want to hear Billy Burnett (uh, umm, I mean Neil Finn) sing "Go Your Own Way"? But, it worked so well in 1987! :]

Oh, didja?

Just. Stop.

We get you’re not happy. But don’t stomp on our buzz. Just don’t click on the damn thread if you have an issue with it.

:wavey:They did “Don’t Stop” and “Say You Love Me.”

WGAF? And who the f*ck are you to tell us where people can post?

This forum is about the Rumours Fleetwood Mac lineup - Neil Finn and Mike Campbell are not part of that lineup.

I found it. Feel free to delete this thread. Thanks.

Mick, John, Christine, and Stevie are still here, though. And, last I checked, it says this is a forum to talk about them.

Indeed, but Mick, John, Christine, and Stevie were also part of another non-Rumours lineup which included Billy Burnette and Rick Vito. If you want to talk about them or their concert setlists, I wouldn't expect a thread posted in the Rumours forum.

Nice set.
I would take out:

Everywhere
Gypsy
Green Manalishi
Too Far Gone
Go Your Own Way
Little Lies
Stand Back (should never be on a Fleetwood Mac stage)

I would leave in Oh Well
And add:

Station Man
I Need To Know
Rattlesnake Shake
Over My Head
Sara
Oh Daddy
Stop Draggin My 💔 Around

Yeah, but nobody in the current lineup is mentioned on that forum’s heading, vs. 4 of 6 on this one. Life’s too f*cking short for this level of minutiae. Get a life.

And World Turning.

I was really hoping for Hold Me on this tour after Buckingham/McVie played it on their tour, but now without Lindsey, I hope they do not play Hold Me. Although, I might be okay with Christine singing it by herself, or maybe even with Stevie.

“World Turning” is a Lindsey co-write and he also sings lead on “Don’t Stop” except for the second verse. They did “Say You Love Me” on the 2009 tour but it was subsequently dropped. My issue with them doing “Go Your Own Way” is that it’s such a deeply personal song about Lindsey and Stevie’s relationship. It loses so much of its power and emotion if it’s sung by someone else.

Whatever. They’re going to play it. It’s one of, if not THE signature Fleetwood Mac songs.

Love that song! I do think with this latest incarnation of FM, they will return to more of a Danny Kirwan-esque sound. Not a bad thing at all. I just wish Lindsey wasn't a casualty of the change.

Same here. Actually, a LMJCN band would be my first choice NOW for a band. That would blow my mind. Not that they NEED Neil, but he would be a step up from the other third from the classic lineup.

Hey, at least he's willing to write new music, regardless of how well it sells. :thumbsup:

Go Your Own Way

Played eleven times in a row.

Then songbird.

here's my idea for a setlist:

Monday Morning
Blue Letter
I'm So Afraid
Second Hand News
Go Your Own Way
The Chain
The Ledge
Save Me A Place
Not That Funny
I Know I'm Not Wrong
Eyes Of The World
Can't Go Back
Big Love
Caroline
Tango In The Night
Family Man
Encore:
Walk A Thin Line

:thumbsup: They can add What Makes You Think You're The One and dedicate it to the icon.

I've always hated Family Man, the Ledge, Not That Funny, and Walk a Thin Line. I'd take those out and put in Crystal, What Makes You Think You're the One, That's All For Everyone, and Book of Love.

They should at least do one solo song. I suggest Wrong.

That's the ONE Lindsey should do on his solo tour! :]:]

:shocked:

Really? Crystal? That’s probably the last song in the world he’d play, especially now.

I think he should make a point of playing On With The Show on his next tour. I think it would be poignant given its lack of play on either the last Fleetwood Mac tour nor the BuckVie tour;

Dead on the ground
I am making a sound
I am too proud to drown
Too proud to drown
As long as I stand
I will take your hand
I will stand with my band
Stand with my band

It probably doesn't really matter where this gets posted, but I added it to "Post-Rumours" as well.

My favourite part of this site is the "wish setlists". If it was up to me, the list would look like this:

Albatross
Station Man
Straight Back
Spare Me A Little Of Your Love
Crystal
Remember Me
Angel (from Tusk)
Heroes Are Hard To Find
Emerald Eyes
Over & Over
Say You Will
Carnival Begin
Sunny Side Of Heaven
Sugar Daddy
Affairs Of The Heart
The Smile I Live For
Sable On Blond
Honey Hi
That's Alright
Behind The Mask
Seven Wonders
Hold Me

Encore:
I Don't Want To Know
Why

I'll be there, as close to the stage as I can get. I don't know if I can stand another 11-minute "Gold Dust Woman". If they hafta do it, I hope they'll shorten it to no more than 5 minutes, and leave room for other songs.

That's a dream setlist if I've ever seen one. But I like it, A LOT!

Why only works if you had the 3 voices of CM, SN, and LB. And honestly, even if you did (or they did it now with Neil) their voices are too far gone from what they were in 75

I can't stand Family Man either....which was a bit of my point...they can do all Lindsey songs, that would be funny.

Well... I just got my tix. I'll be in the front row, hoping for the best (with a shortened GDW, and not a whole lot of story-telling).

That's awesome! Have a great time. Front row...lucky you! I have never been able to get quite that close.

Really??? It worked perfectly well on the MTM album a couple of years before BN arrived on the scene. I don't think CM, SN and LB was the definitive version of this song. I think they could give it a good go and it would also be very interesting to hear what Mike Campbell did with the guitar parts.
'Why' Take 3... could be interesting.

:nod::nod::nod::nod::nod::nod:

"Why" would be like finding my Holy Grail of live Mac performances if I saw it in person.

I will forgive this band of all the grudges and resentment I'm not actually holding against them if they do "Why" on this tour. I'll also accept As Long as You Follow. :D

You are obviously referencing the days of PRE-1997 TOURING. You are forgetting that the band now tours with an extra keyboard player, drummer, guitar players, AND VOCALISTS in tow--(even perhaps some Karaoke tracks thrown into the "mix"). Fleetwood Mac now has more musicians and voices than a Broadway show.

They will be able to perform "WHY" just fine--no doubt. The background vocalists (Sharon Celani and company) can handle the harmonies singlehandedly. If not, they'll just throw in pre-recorded tracks. (Reference "Hold Me" on the recent Buckingham McVie Tour).

The sad truth is that very few concerts are 100% live anymore. Everyone has a little "help".

Yes, sadly, you are right. At least someone understood what I meant.:thumbsup:
