Today is the day that I - and thousands of others - have waited for, tickets in hand, with bated breath: it's Fleetwood Mac Day, otherwise known as the second Saturday of New Orleans Jazz Fest,.

First of all, please take note that Fleetwood's performance time has been bumped up to 4:40 p.m. from 5:10 p.m. I can only image how I would feel if I trudged through the mud and crowds only to find that I've missed a half hour of twirling and tambourines.

Second, I'm wondering which hits you're most excited to hear.


Which songs would make your day? I've attempted to narrow my list to five, which you can see and hear below. I've abandoned hope that Christine McVie will appear with the band, so I've excluded any McVie-led tracks. If you can't make the Fest today, all the more reason to hear and share your favorites with other superfans!

Check out my picks and weigh in in the comments!

1. What Makes You Think You're the One - Because: Lindsey Buckingham's ecstatic shredding.

2. Tusk - Because: What if Fleetwood Mac performed with a brass ensemble?

3. That's Alright - Because: This simple, charming, country-fied song is my favorite track from Mirage.

4. Silver Springs - Because: Stevie Nicks' ballad of heartache and otherworldly vengeance would make for a hauntingly beautiful festival interlude.

5. Gypsy - Because: Twirling. Who doesn't want to hear Gypsy?
