I still can't believe I missed this tour. I was mad at my parents for months.

I was wondering about you. I know you have the TISL story but never heard of anything in between now and then.

Well I have an Unleashed story, too. But in 2003, my parents decided last minute that they didn't want me to go to see Fleetwood Mac when they came to town... even though we had already purchased 5th row seats. They didn't even give me a reason. whoohoo.

Hun, I know it sounds weird but I can truly empathize with you. When I was 9 years old in May of 1980, Fleetwood Mac came to Minneapolis on May 9&10. I begged my mom for weeks to let me go but she wouldnt. Se's no prude, but she also knew what went on at Rock Concerts and she wasnt about to let a 9 year old go to a concert by himself. She dens't like Fleetwood Mac which is why she didnt go. The day of the shows I stayed in my room both days and didnt come out to eat or anything I just spent 2 days listening to my Mac records.

That sucks. I wonder why they did that. And what became of your tix? My parents could be strict when I was younger, but I was always able to sway my dad. Still, your story is, surprisingly, not uncommon. It's that power in being a parent that kicks in at times I guess.

My parents have just been trying to squish the Fleetwood Mac outta me since I was around 11, I think. By the time the Say You Will tour came around, I was prepared for them to do something like that.

And we sold the tickets last minute.... it was the day before the show that they told me. I'm still bitter about it, ha.

Well, I hate to say something bad towards someone's parents, but that just sounds like plain selfishness to me!! I may not love everything my son loves, but I would never do something like that. Maybe it's because I know what it's like to be a fan!

But why??? I would think a lot of parents would be thrilled that their kids were listening to FM instead of a lot of other music thats out there.
