I've mentioned this on a couple of other threads, the hype and interest in them is off the scale in the UK!
There was nothing like this interest in 2003 or 2009. I know Mick has done a lot of press and the Rumours re-issues have been released, but I'm still blown away by how popular they seem to be at the moment.
The fact that NME and other mags that usually cater for student types are giving them so much coverage must be helping. I think there'll be a lot of under 30s at these shows.
I'm so glad they are getting the credit they deserve as I've always felt they've been a bit overlooked here given their body of work.
