Default Please Come To Europe

Does anyone know yet if Fleetwood Mac are going to do Europe on this tour?

I really really hope they consider it.

If this really is a "back to the oldies" kinda tour we need to see it too.
There are so so many real fleetwood mac fans in europe that have got to see this stuff live.

It might just happen with such an early start to the tour, the band might be able to include some Euro venues...keep your fingers crossed...
of course "we" would rather they stayed on this side of the pond, and played in the States, &, Canada....

Well, if they want to rake in the dough, they can definitely do that overseas.

I can't see them coming over, I don't think it would financially benefit them to tour outside the States and Canada and let's face it money is the probably the only reason for this tour.

Didn't Lindsey say somewhere that this tour before a new album would help the band gel together and help the creative flair before they went into a studio.

He has to say things like this to justify it to himself. He's been pretty derisive of the Eagles for doing nostalgia tours and now he's doing one. That must smart.

I really really really hope they DONT go to Europe. This our needs to just be 40 dates and END, so they can record an album. The only way I'd be for a European tour would be if after their England shows they stay there and record the album IN England with a certain someone who lives there.

Well, if they are sticking to 40 dates in North America, and their press stated they are touring through Spring and summer.... And if they do approx. 15 dates a month (like in March), then they will blow threw North America (40 dates) in just over 3 months... So that leaves plenty of Summer left to head elsewhere like Europe, England and Australia... Even if they only did 10 dates a month beginning in March, they will have done 50 shows by the end of July.. and Summer is basically only half over.

Who lives in England? I don't think the Prime Minister would want to do an album with FM.

Didn't they say something to the effect that there wouldn't be a new album to go with this tour? And why would you tour BEFORE the album?

(I hope they put out a live album- Live in Pittsburgh)

Or Rock Werchter in Belgium, ya know? They will be just in time to hit some of the major European festivals when they finish their 40 dates in the US.

If they're not coming to Europe I am planning my LA trip around the time they tour CA. If they move from East to West that would probably be somewhere in June, right? Perfect.
