Dallas, TX,- AA Center- 12/14/14
Hello, everyone. I was at the Dallas FM show and thought I would share the night with everyone.
I've been waiting excitedly for months to see them and they defiantly did not disappoint anyone.
The show looked like it was completely sold out. The crowed was really excited to see Christine and really into the show. Cheering loudly after each song and dancing in the aisles. Which really seemed to hype the band up even more (especially Lindsey) and made the music even better.
Everyone in the band seemed to be having a great time. Stevie and Christine were laughing a lot and smiling at the crowed. Lindsey seemed to be really excited and happy, as was Mick. Even John smiled here and there.
As usual Lindsey ran from one end of the stage to the other, hopped, dancing, and bounced around. Several times during the night he went over to John and Christine to lay his head on both of them. Like a hug, without hugging. I’m not sure if that makes a lot of sense, but it’s what it looked like. It was obvious he was really enjoying himself and was liked playing around with them both.
As for the Lindsey and Stevie interaction (in my opinion) it seemed to be a little… uh… sterile. Lindsey wasn’t ignoring Stevie but he wasn’t acting chummy with her, and he didn’t hug her or interact with her other than an occasional look in her direction when he was singing certain songs like he normally does. Any warm interactions that he had last night, he had with Christine or John.
After NGBA, Stevie (did what she’s done in several shows) walked over and stood facing Mick’s drum kit with her back to the audience. I was at the side of the stage and it looked like she picked up a Kleenex and started rubbing her nose. Lindsey stood in front of the stage holding his guitar and bowing to the audience. Then he exited the stage without even appearing to glance in Stevie’s direction.
When Stevie realized Lindsey had left the stage she seemed to be genuinely surprised. She turned her head to the left and the right appearing to look for him, but she recovered quickly when she saw the stage hands setting up for the next song and started joking around with John.
At the end of GOW Lindsey went over and laid his head on both John and Christine’s shoulder and then he crossed the stage and again appeared to not even glance in Stevie’s direction and finished the song.
Silver Springs was the same old, same old and Songbird sounded even better live.
I doubt very much of the Dallas show will appear on You Tube, because I didn’t see very many people taping the show this time. I taped the show, but my phone decided to act up last night and some a lot of the video's are grainy. I am going to try to fix it before I post it on line.
All in all the band did a fantastic job. I don’t think I’ve heard them sound better. The music was so good last night it really made me believe Lindsey when he said that Christine's return to the band has begun a profound, poetic and prolific new chapter in the history of Fleetwood Mac.
Take care everyone.
