I've been asked a few times what I thought of Tuesday's concert. Every time I gave a reply (usually "unbelievable", "wonderful", or "fantastic"), the first thought that ran through my mind was "I don't know". Fortunately for me, computers and forums exist, so I now have a much better way of expressing how I felt about it...
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that sums it up nicely.

A good synopsis indeed!
I loved my seats, much to my surprise (I expected they'd be pretty bad, being somewhat close to the back, but they were raised very high).
As a side, my apologies to anyone who was scared by my "CHAMPION LINDSEY" when the crowd went silent after Go Insane.
I felt compelled to take the opportunity...
On a slightly less happy note (
), I'll confess that when Stevie sang "Say You Love Me" I felt a bit sombre. Don't get me wrong - she was absolutely gorgeous singing it! It just reminded me of Christine, and how much I would've liked her to be there. (Are these tears in my eyes right now? Geez... I never knew just how much I loved her!) I personally think "Seven Wonders" should've been there instead, in part because TITN is my favourite album after Tusk.
As if to make everyone think I didn't enjoy it (I did, btw, as accurately explained above if you need reminding), I'll also confess that I felt almost as if I didn't fully realise it was Fleetwood Mac on stage. The significance of what I saw on Tuesday has yet to dawn on me, which is simply weird, seeing as they're the band I desperately obsess over!
Incidentally, the only times I really felt connected to the band was when Lindsey sang "Go Insane", and Stevie sang "Stand Back". Note that they're solo songs of Lindsey's and Stevie's. Ultimately, I think this indicates that it's because I was subconsciously expecting Christine to come out on stage and finish the line up, which (of course!) never happened. (Watery eyes again.)
Having said all this, I'll finish by saying that this was, by far and away, the best concert I've ever been to!!
I very much doubt that I'll ever have another experience like this again until they tour Australia again in the (hopefully not too distant) future!!
As usual for me, a long post.
