Fleetwood Mac on Ellen

[ryan4136]

So, So, Many Things To Say:

I'm just scratching the surface but here you go.

1. I'm not sure Chris is playing any parts anymore.

2. Campbell is really good if that's all they are doing with him that's such a waste.

3. Hope Mick is enjoying playing in the Stevie rythm section. This is clearly the Stevie show now. Nickswood Mac is more suitable now.

4. Mike was playing keyboards over Chris in Gypsy?

5. Stevie seems very happy.

6. The band are professionals, and they were very tight, and rehersed.

7. They cut the outro to Gypsy, that's the strongest part of the song.

8. Energy was crazy low, they need to raise it big time.

9. 300 of the forum tickets sold are Ellen giveaways

10. Poor John

11. Signing The Chain first out of the gate, with the sly smiles for Stevie is incredibly telling.

Are the studio audiences for a tv talk show really that big? I know she said they gave them all a concert ticket as an Ellen show bonus, but I wouldn't have imagined there were really 300 in that little crowd.

Everyone in the crowd was getting two tickets. I ballparked the audience at 100-150, assuming additional tickets were probably given to crew as well. 300 sounded right.

Gotcha. I missed that they got two tickets.

According to this story about when Ellen gave $1 million to her studio audience, it was split among the 400 audience members in attendance. So, we're talking potentially 800 tickets to the Forum.

Wow. Is Chris playing anything live anymore now? She sure wasn't playing much on the BuckVie tour, Brett was handling most of it. Now that he's not on this tour, is Mike taking over keyboards in his spare time as well??? I just don't get what happened in the time between her solo album on which she played everything and her return to FM. Maybe it's just the physical force at which one has to play live versus how softly one can play in the studio?? Still, you'd think that could be manipulated electronically these days.
