They have enough security hired that anyone overheard complaining about the concert would be killed where they stand and their lifeless body hung from the rafters of the next concert venue.
really? sorry i might be slow... you are being sarcastic, right, to elicit some reactions? because isn't that practically what they are doing now?

Monday Morning
Warm Ways
Blue Letter
Rhiannon
Over My Head

Crystal
Say You Love Me
Landslide
World Turning

Sugar Daddy
I'm So Afraid

on average, i probably dislike hearing white album songs over and over even more than Rumours ones. Rhiannon? Landslide? ISA?

i'd much rather hear the whole Tusk, or the whole SYW. those are the songs we never hear! or even Tango, although i don't care for most Tango songs nearly as much but it would have been interesting change.

Well, I just followed Pink Floyd's M.O. from their late '70s touring model, sort of.

If I followed it fully, the set would be:

New album in its entirety (whether or not it had been released by the time of the start of the tour)
intermission
Previous album in its entirety
encore
the song with the most airplay from the album before that.

So, using that for Fleetwood Mac we'd have been rid of Rumours tunes by 1987.

Now following that pattern for the upcoming Fleetwood Mac tour, the set would be:

All of any completed songs for the new album (I'll toss all 4 EP songs in this category, too)
Intermission
All of Say You Will (including "Not Make Believe" & "Love Minus Zero/No Limit")
encore
"Temporary One", "Sweet Girl" & "My Little Demon" (since they would've played "Bleed To Love Her" with SYW)

I'll even give them a bonus track & end the show with "Songbird".

i'd be in heaven!
