no, i'm just loud, while others don't want to bother. i'm nothing in comparison to many people i met in LB fandom.

I just want the same raw power they had from 1975-82 on stage. Anything less is, well, less.
i saw Richard Thompson recently, and yeah he was great. he had one guitar only that he kept re-tuning, had a lot of self-deprecating funny stories and political satire to tell, and did half of the songs by request, even forgetting how some of them go in the middle and just telling what they are about. but he's a very different personality and performer from Lindsey. i don't see LB ever doing what Richard does, or vice versa. and i enjoy them both, as they are... well there's a lot i would change with LB's set (i.e. he should play whatever i want to hear ), but i wouldn't want to make Richard Thompson out of him.

oh and did i say i like Electric? and i wouldn't mind hearing some songs electrically also, one man.

Agreed, although I have no room to talk. I took a break that lasted nearly 6 months!

It is SO CHEESY that a guy who has been with a group that has sold many many many millions of records, goes out solo(where it's obvious, as opposed to a band - where at least it's not SO obvious), and plays with tracks. It's ridiculous.
Hell, just hire a drummer, bass player, and a rhythm guitar/keyboardist, and MAKE IT REAL. No tracks, no recorded harmonies. Ugh...

OK! I cannot standby idly and just read this forum, I must contribute! I am over the moon, out of this world excited about this news. Like many of us, Fleetwood Mac's body of work has meant so uch to my life, and my own little world, but Christine's songs are what mean the most to me. I have been distraught before, to know that she would never tour, or would never write music anymore. So, to hear this is simply amazing, and not even as a fan, as another person and human being, I am happy that she is finding herself, and still proves to me why life can be s adventurous and different, it can really take you anywhere....

Meow for the fan stufffff!!!

I hope she play the following songs-
Solo
- Calumny
- Friend
-You are
- Northern Star

Fleetwood Mac Material:
- Spare me a little of your love
- Over, and Over******
-Honey Hi**********
-Say you love me
-You make loving fun*******
-Believe Me****
-Why****
-Heroes are Hard to Find***
-Warm ways****
-Never make me cry***
-Everywhere
-Little Lies ( but a better live version than that of the mirage tour)
-Come a little bit closer****
-Love in store
-Hold Me
-Think about me


for the encore-or closer
of course Songbird or.....
-Never forget
-Farmer's Daughter

NOW this is for michellej and anyone else who inquires about Chris' 70's sound-

Chris' piano playing is very distinct. I'm sure all of us who study Fleetwood Mac realize this, and of course only she can tell us what she means, but I think she is talking quite literally about sound. I believe Chris is the 70's sound for the band. Without her they are an awesome rock band, but it's her sound and distinct bluesy way she plays chords that make the "seventies sound, not even Tuggle can recreate. It's in her blood and the feeling comes out through her fingertips. When I listen to bands and music of that era, what really made that "seventies sound" were the keyboards and guitar. Lindsey plays around with his sounds a bit, especially with the intro of dreams, and his solos, but the clav sound mixed in with what I said above is where that sound comes from. Here is a clip of what I am talking about (or attempting to explain)

http://youtu.be/py3w5fttedA?t=3m39s

As for the songwriting, Chris knows how to do that, and we all know her love songs. Heartbreaking in good ways.

So, if anyone has read this far into this lengthy post, thank you for bearing with me.
