Okay, I really normally don't interfere in lindsey-stevie-quality-quarrels because I think they're boring and not very in the spirit of the quality of this band imo.
but I will quote slate magazine on the reissues for this matter:

What really made these three albums tick, though—and made their sound basically irreproducible—was that late-'70s Fleetwood Mac was an improbable balancing act, powered by internal conflicts and bizarre chemistry.

A California-to-the-core studio obsessive with a permanent case of the jitters (Buckingham), a dreamy mystical type with a gift for ornate, languorous melodies (Nicks), and a veteran British rhythm section with roots in raw electric blues (Fleetwood and the McVies): Try faking that combination.

Although on SYW and this tour Christine isn't there, i still think this band has the same quality as described in the quotes.
And that's what brought the people to the shows.
And at least: It brought me overseas.
