Songs they will keep/drop/add

[Street_Dreamer]

I've been wanting Fleetwood Mac to change their set list and play the old and unappreciated songs for YEARS but there seem to be people who are cheering these set changes just for the sake of the set being changed. It seems fairly disingenuous to me, especially when the band is performing songs that these same "fans" would otherwise care less about. These fans **** on the Time album for years but now they suddenly are thrilled to hear All Over Again played live? Come on. These fans ignore everything pre-1975 and suddenly they're thrilled to hear Black Magic Woman and Tell Me All The Things You Do? Please.

For me, it's not that I've been requesting to hear All Over Again or Tell Me All the Things You Do so much as their inclusion means we don't have to hear Silver Springs or Songbird again for this tour. That may seem like a small difference to you, but it means a lot to me. And the only reason I'm thrilled to hear Black Magic Woman is because Stevie is singing it- so damn clever, and something I've always wished they would have done before, change lead vocals on occasion.

I never cared for Time. Have you heard All Over Again yet? It's really good. I love this version. I'm always down to hear some pre '75 live, always have been.

yup. here they cheered. but they will probably be headed to the bathroom with lines around the corners along with everyone else when these songs are actually happening. lots of cheering for setlist of oldie hits here but not much analysis of the actual performances. the only real analysis i've seen was from David (always learn something from that guy!), and what he wrote i could have told you after i saw iheart performances - they obviously worked up the song versions very true to the studio versions.

oh i read somewhere that Campbell did a lot of guitar soloing. Lindsey would have been crucified if he did that. (for the record i don't know how was lot of guitar soloing defined for whoever wrote that, and whether that's actually true)

Oh so David is a never ending well of knowledge, but me and JBrown dissecting the ins and outs of Stevie’s croakey voice gets no respect for for being considered analyzing! Well I WAS going to buy you a drink in Canton possibly but now I guess not!

lol what am i gonna do with all of you SN-lovers in Canton?!


PS you know i didn't really read much of what's in those threads.

So they open with "The Chain" and close with "All Over Again". I WANT TO KNOW WHO REALLY BROKE THE CHAIN!!!!! There's got to be a message here somewhere, if that's how they opened the show and closed it. Cause one thing is for sure, they have NEVER done "All Over Again". I bet the girls did it justice too. I want to hear this.


The Chain

"And if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain."



All Over Again

"Well it's it's time to move on to the rain
And finally break the chain
In spite of the heartaches
And troubles in love
I'd do it all over (do it all over)
Do it all over again
Stop before it's too late"

^ ^ ^

Every single one of them (Finn & Campbell included) have to hear the irony in these lyrics...

I would love to make a surprise appearance in Canton. It's so close to where I grew up.

I hope they add Lessons in Love (Level 42), as promised. John and Mick would knock that out of the ballpark.
