Default Any Ledgies seen EVERY tour (in person)?

I am just wondering if any of you have seen a show on EVERY Mac tour since 1975? If so, any favorite tours/moments?

(and...I'm so jealous, it's painful! )

Cool Seen every tour

I've seen every UK tour since 73!

I first saw them in May 1973 at the Manchester Free Trade Hall. I can't remember too much about it. I know they played Night Watch from Penguin and Dave Walker explained what Rattle Snake Shake was about. I was a very innocent fourteen year old back then!

I saw them again in '77, then '80, '88, '90 and then the big gap till now.

Until now I've never seen them without Christine and personally I miss her loads. But life goes on and it was her choice.

Gail

Will we ever see a solo album from the lady?

I'm impressed Gail. I suppose that from these boards only ChiliD has seen every US tour since 1973 or 1974.

I wish I was a more savvy and enterprising, concert-going 10 year old back in 1975. I wasn't a fan until 1977. And didn't get around to seeing them until 1982!

Mirage - amazing show!
Rock A Little - horrible performance - it was painful!
The Other Side of the Mirror-- eeh!
Behind The Mask - 2 shows -- eeh! eeh!
Out Of The Cradle - one of the most amazing shows ever!
Time - eeh
The Dance - 2 shows
Enchanted - front row! shook her hand!
Trouble In Shangrila
Say You Will - 2 shows

Would love to go back in time and see them on the Fleetwood Mac, Rumours and Tusk tours. Not sure why I missed the Tango tour (still smarting over Lindsey's departure maybe). Wish I saw Stevie during Bella Donna, Wild Heart, TimeSpace and Street Angel.

Not sure how other ledgies can afford to miss work, travel around and purchase premium seats for dozen of shows??? I want to be part of that trust fund! Concert ticket prices have skyrocketed in the years I've being attending. I paid $15 to see the Mirage tour! Even a with a decent salary, and the passage of time, $125 for general seating still seems slightly criminal.

Oh, caught a few small club shows by Peter Green. Historic, but nothing to write home about.
