Buckingham's night was far less even. The 54-year-old singer/guitarist provided two of the show's most memorable moments: a powerful solo, acoustic rendering of "Big Love" and a sweetly understated version of "Never Going Back Again."

He was also responsible for the concert's primary shortcomings.

Perhaps feeling that his songwriting has overshadowed his musicianship in the public eye, Buckingham seemed intent on showing off his instrumental skills.

On song after song, he soloed maniacally for minutes on end, pawing savagely at his guitar strings as if he were trying to tear them out. While the bizarre spectacle stirred up some in the mostly seated crowd, the heavy-handed approach only served to extend Buckingham's numbers far past the point of tolerance.

Gimme a break. He couldn't have done it ENOUGH for seteca and I.

I am SERIOUSLY sick of the whining about Christine being gone. It was HER decision NOT to tour, GET THE FRICK OVER IT!!!! Geez. Anywho...next FM show I get to....ain't gonna be in frickin Dallas...thank GOD I'm from Fort Worth, because those people SUCK. LAMOS!!! I hope they spilled their beer.
