Over 14,000 fans packed every nook and cranny of the Pepsi Center in Denver last Friday night to see the Fleetwood Mac concert and the result was magical. Various iterations of the band have been around since 1967 but the current line-up is the band most of us are familiar with; Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks, John McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and, after a 16 year hiatus away from the band, Christie McVie. You may remember me writing about them a couple of years ago when I took my family to see them in Tulsa. My youngest son Will was the only one who couldn't attend so when I found out they were appearing in Denver and that my favorite Fleetwood Mac member, Christie McVie, would be back with them, I called Will and asked him if he wanted to go. When he said yes, I bought the tickets right away. Not much is cheap anymore and certainly not Fleetwood Mac tickets but after watching and listening to them perform some of my all-time favorite songs in an almost three-hour long concert, I have no regrets about paying big bucks for close-to-the-stage tickets.

The most amazing thing about the band is that they're my age, ranging in ages from 65 to 71 and they seem better now than ever which certainly proves that age is only a mindset.
