Back at the hotel now... Dublin was all kinds of weather today - sunny, rainy, windy, cold, mild... just couldn't make up its mind. But indeed this was one of the more outstanding shows. But most notably the band seemed genuinely impressed by the energy of the crowd; Lindsey even did his own "Edge Walk" across the entire front edge of the stage. And Stevie was wowed as well since she did her own little own speech about it at the end.

Some notable notes:

-About midway through the show, you could see Stevie making eye contact with someone out in the arena with the "thumbs up" sign. I am speculating that this was the "we're doing 'Silver Springs' signal."

-She took the low harmony on "Stand Back" for the line "Why don't you taaaaake me home..."

-Lindsey laughed during the acapella harmony of "falling, falling, falling" at the end of SYLM.

-Not sure who the "Landslide" dedication was made to- it was something to do with Fleetwood Mac, I think!

-At the end of GYOW, Stevie and the girls were doing some kind of side step choreography together. It was kind of cute, since Stevie was looking behind her to make sure the girls were keeping time.

-A girl ran on stage during "Don't Stop" and made it within a few feet of Stevie before she was whisked away by the guards.

-Before "Silver Springs," Mick walked back onstage swinging his "balls" around and John walked out with a big pair of scissors and jokingly tried to cut them off. That's about as theatrical as John gets, I suppose!

Thanks for the pics and the tidbits! I love hearing about all the little uniquities from each show.

And I think we need to open these photos up for captioning

Thank you. That is PERFECT.

Why? Why can't these people bow together?

The pictures are delicious and Lindsey's shirt stands out so vividly. He must use Tide.

Looked to me like they were trying to see how low down they could go altogether without falling on their faces..

Sweetest bunch of people to watch on stage!!! :O

Unbelievable show, they've evolved so much since the Say You Will tour in 03.. magical evening, the 02 really stepped up to the mark

Highlight:John with the scissors or Lindsey laughing during some songs..

He's such an amazing performer, last night was a serious reminder of just how perfect he is with that guitar. Stevie was phenomenal aswel! Did Silver Springs some serious justice! I dont think she hit a bum note all night, and I was right underneath her mike!

[QUOTE=HejiraNYC;849827]s'more, laddies... and lasses...




HEJIRA! Sorry for the caps! But I am SO impressed! This photo belongs in their (alleged) upcoming UK Tourbook. It would also be a fantastic Rolling Stone magazine photo, or their best official Fleetwood Mac tour-shirt. I just think it's a phenominal photo, because... - it's a dimension of Fleetwood Mac captured in a photograph that you don't see very often- FUN!
My, my, you captured 'we're having fun' as I've never seen, ever, with those four. I think if SN ever sees that photo, she will say to herself 'well, I won't be able to say I didn't have a good time on the Unleashed Tour- there's proof!'
The photo strikes me as very, very 'Wizard of Oz'... I somehow see Stevie as the cowardly lion in the shot, while LB has that vulnerable Dorothy-esque gaze going on. Now, who ever would get to sing lead on 'If I Only Had A Brain'??
Though, to me, it looks like Stevie is singing a little, silly, happy song to herself, possibly even 'because, because, because, because, because'...'
Gosh, don't I know how to spell phenominal? Why is it underlined in red, twice now? Well, it's just the best photo of Fleetwood Mac I have seen in eons. So very, very nicely done. They should hire you! (though John may tell LB 'that's too much')

Oh, John is using props now. That's hysterical! I've seen him cut them using his fingers as his scissors. Now, he's stepped it up a notch. I wonder if it's the first time he did that. I bet the first time, if he caught Mick by brandishing them unexpectedly, Mick must've nearly died laughing. Michele
