We will in all likelihood, get her Rumours standards, Say You Love Me and perhaps Everywhere or Little Lies, but not expecting anything too earth shattering as the Mac of today is geared towards the Rumours loving masses. The addition of Beautiful Child/Storms/Sisters was hardly a new direction as they still insist on playing the bulk of Rumours while inexplicably ignoring the wonderful, bouncing and well written I Don't Want to Know. As good as Rumours is, I find this a tragic neglect of the vast wonderful catalogue that the band has. Please, please drop Stand Back (doesn't belong anywhere near a Mac show) and Big Love. Still on the fence whether I will take the bait on the tour or not, may wait to see the set list before committing.

Couldn't agree more. What would be absolutely fabulous would be for them to each choose pieces they personally love and enjoy performing. Real honest downright favorites, not influenced by marketing at all. It would be so cool to see them jamming and maybe witness the essence of the artist in them as opposed to the performer they undoubtedly have to draw out when on tour.
Personally, I could stand them not performing "Rhiannon," GYOW, and all the "classics" just to witness that essence.
