You're welcome. I hope people take a good long look at that photo and realize that the time to do things (like see your favorite band) is now. Forget about the whole Chris is struggling or who did what to whom. The time to do that thing you've been putting off? It's NOW.

I am so glad I went to the show in 2014 when I finally did get to see my favorite band, with the incarnation that I grew up with and love, intact once more. It was only about 18 months since the 2013 show and I questioned going at all. I am happy that I did, for obvious reasons now.

I was a fool to skip all those shows. But I thought they were all deteriorating musically. I hadn't come to appreciate their current "sound" (which is kind of like trying to jog in the swimming pool—they all felt so lethargic).

You know what they say. A jog in the swimming pool is better than floating t!ts up.

I know what your saying about the sound. They absolutely had already deteriorated vocally and I thought they weren’t even as loud in 2014 as I remembered from past tours. But when Christine started singing “sweet wonderful you” and the crowd screamed, I knew it was worth going. Four songs from Tango with the actual fivesome who recorded it. Seven Wonders in and Stand Back out. Don’t Stop with the right lyrics and proper key. Songbird with Lindsey on stage playing a solo. It was a fantastic show and for it being the last time I will see Fleetwood Mac, a good ending.

except it wouldn't be like seeing the same band anymore, to me anyway. I'm glad I saw them all the times I did.

Btw, thanks for posting these links.
