Hmmmm...some of the acts I've seen open for Fleetwood Mac:

Blue Swede (1974)
Climax Blues Band (1974)
Little Feat (1975/76)
Mistress (1975)
UFO (1976)
Stephen Bishop (1977)
Sanford-Townsend Band (1977)
Danny Douma (1979)
Dave Mason (1982)
The Cruzados (1987)
No opening act in 1990
Roger McGuinn (ex-Byrds) (1994)
No opening act in 1997 or 2003

Acts that I've seen Fleetwood Mac open FOR:

Loggins & Messina (1975)
Rod Stewart & Faces (1975)
Dave Mason Band (1976)


If there is an opening act, PLEASE get there early and support them. Of all the concerts I've been to, I've discovered some great music by being there early to watch the opening band(s). There've been LESS than a handful of concerts where the opening act has been just terrible. Of the over 200 concerts I've seen, maybe less than FIVE have had an opening act that I didn't like.
