I have a floor ticket to Orlando on the next leg. Going to wait and see if any set list changes coming in 2015. If not, I'll most likely sell the ticket. Even though the band seemed to be playing better than ever I simply don't feel it will be worth the trek to see the exact same show with all the exact speeches and acoustic set again. This will be a first for me since 1982 if I only see them once this tour.

So you saw them on the Mirage tour? That is awesome. So you got to see Hold Me live, that is awesome as well. I'm really jealous. I wish we could see the video of the full Fleetwood Mac set from the US festival.

1 show for the Mirage tour. Had to absolutely BEG my uncle to take me. Although I can remember the stage, and the band of course, my recollection of the event now is somewhat foggy, I just remember being totally awestruck and in love with Stevie and the music in general. I wanted to go to the Tusk Tour but my parents said it was out of the question, I was only 11 years old then, they thought I was crazy liking "their" music. Ironically enough, the same uncle gladly took me to the Wildheart tour in 83? We missed Stevie's first solo tour. By the time of the Tango album I was driving all over the Northeast and beyond hitting multiple shows from there on out, FMAC and Stevie solo.

I don't expect them to make any changes, but if it were up to me:

I'd add 2 more Christine songs. I wouldn't replace any of her songs that are already in the set, because they are all highlights on this tour (even Over My Head-- which I didn't think was going to be a high point-- sounds great on this tour: it totally captures a sunny, laid back, 70s California mood, and really sounds like classic Mac). As for which songs I'd add, Hold Me is my first choice, plus one of the following:

Isn't It Midnight
Think About Me
Brown Eyes
Never Make Me Cry
Love In Store
Honey Hi

There are just so many Chris songs I want to hear live, and that's not even counting the pre-1975 songs. And I'd like more Tusk and Mirage representation in the set, especially her songs. Songs such as Hold Me & Think About Me highlight the vocal interaction between Chris & Lindsey, so it makes sense to include songs like these. Part of the reason I like Little Lies so much on this tour is the interaction between the 3 voices (the end of Say You Love Me has it, too)-- and I'd like to see them milking that aspect as much as possible. Oh Daddy is my absolute least favorite choice-- I'd prefer something high-energy or something that wasn't on The Dance set list.

Also: I'd replace Silver Springs with Sara. I'd either get rid of Rhiannon entirely or have it in a very different version (such as a piano version with Christine on piano). I'd like to see Blue Letter as the first encore, in place of World Turning.

I like LB's song choices, though I'd change the acoustic set somehow to put in some variety. I vote for an acoustic version of Bleed To Love Her similar to his 2012 tour version.
