I did not like Sisters of the Moon in 2014 and it's one of my favorites.

Oklahoma 1977's Rhiannon is my favorite by far. NGBA is anguisly slow now. Anguisly slow.

Yes, it's like a spoken word recital now.

These shows scream cash grab to me. Why not just wait until next year to do anything so that Buckingham McVie can have their time and Stevie can finish her tour or whatever? Meh.

after seeing the prices, which in the top range are higher than the last year's Desert festival, or however it was called, for lesser acts all together, at worse venues, i have to agree. i don't think this is driven by the bands necessarily, but by their common management. bands just had to say yes for a comparably small amount of work and a huge payday, so why wouldn't they? but this just looks like trying to squeeze whatever money is possible out of these bands (or whoever is left in them, in some of the cases), while it's still possible.

i'm curious to see how this will sell. also, whether scalpers will jump on it like they did last year, considering the prices, and also how for the last year's oldchella some of the scalper tickets towards the end went below the face value, when they couldn't sell.

I'm beginning to think that these dates' purpose is to finance the Buckingham McVie album and concerts.

Just because of that reason I wish I could go. I love supporting arts and artists, who are continuously evolving and creating.
But I need to save money for next year's tour.

I liked it pretty well, and it was better than all those other tired dirges that she does.

Don't talk to me now!!!
