This was my 4th time seeing FM and my 6th time seeing Stevie. My god what an amazing show it was, topped any times I have ever seen them before. Still on a high from the show. Didn't think I was going to make it, and morning of, found $50. Went to the box office and they gave a a $150 ticket for $50. Was forst row club level right next to the stage. They were AMAZING. They coildve recorded this show for a live album. I was mesmerized.
GDW was purely entrancing, So Afraid was so emotional and enthrallIng, amazing solo. She took Sisters exactl where she wanted too, and she sounded fantastic, she hit the higher notes and the ended and didn't sound strained at all. Sara was the best it's been in years and they really captured that ethereal quality the original recording has. Ashley was at the show, and Stevie dedicated landslide to her, and teared up at the beginning. Lindsey extended the intro and bridge to Big Love and it was awesome. She gave a hilarious intro to Without You and the song sounded fantastic, along with Sad Angel. EOTW was VERY fun, even more so than in '03. Never been a fan of NTF but it KICKED ASS live. Loved tusk and it's newer intro, and the crowd went nuts for it. Silver springs was a powerful, raunchy vocal and she dragged the end of it out to perfection. Say goodbye was purely beautiful. Lindsey was very funny when he spoke, and is just such a smart man. And what an incredible musician and person. Stevie was in the best vocal form I ever have heard her since 97, and, IMO, stole the show with GDW. Mick held his beat soooo well, and John riffed beautifully. Very diverse crowd age wise and racially, and this crowd SANG. Everyone sang most songs, but Gypsy was a BIG sing along, surprisingly almost as much as Landslide. Once again she didn't even sound strained on Gypsy. World Turning pumped me up so much, and EVERYONE sang on GYOW. what an AMAZING show and night so great gum that this band is still just as captivating as ever. And as a side but big note, I couldn't BELIEVE how energetic Stevie was with FM. Just a little ball of energy, Nd sang her hear out. Thank you Fleetwood Mac. One of the greatest nights of my life.
