I went to the Sacramento show alone which was the first time I have ever been to a concert alone and I had a great time. I think I was just about the only person dressed up like Stevie but I really didn't feel self conscious at all. Once the music starts it really doesn't matter if you're alone or not because everyone is there basically to have a good time. Since the tickets are so expensive and I really don't have any friends who are obsessed with Fleetwood Mac like I am it makes more sense financially to go by myself. I also try to get as close as possible and sometimes spent extra money on the tickets to get the best seats.

I went to the Cleveland show alone, and had a great time.

It helps, though, to have some Ledge friends to hang out with (shout out to Laura, Janine, and Eva!)

Yes, I went to Columbus by myself and had a great time. It's really fun when you have other Ledgies to hang with at the show too.

I had a great time by myself last night. The people around me hadnt seen or heard much of the tour, had no idea about the set setlist, etc. This one man and his wife were very nice / cool, he's been seeing FM since before Buckingham/Nicks and saw their first LA Santa Monica show with B/N in 1975 at 2nd row he said, and has been seeing them ever since. THAT was a lot of fun getting his perspective. The other women to my right were very nice as well. You wont be alone anyway Sarah, Mac Fans Are EVERYWHERE!

I went to the Pond last night by myself and have seen almost all the shows here alone since I moved to SoCal in 2001... McCartney, Rolling Stones, etc..... it's fun to go with someone but I've got used to it.... I had a great time regardless!

Post It would be cool...

I would like to go alone. But my mom thinks there's something wrong sending a 16 yr. old alone to Lubbock -- I don't get it. Even though I am just grateful that I get to go, it would be better to be alone screaming my lungs out (about a mile from the stage) while Lindsey sings "Go Your Own Way," and waving my hands in the air when Stevie sings "Beautiful Child." Maybe next time...Lord knows I probably will be 18 by then. Coolness !

Just to add my voice to the chorus, I would go alone too. I hadn't done it before until this tour and when I did it, it was actually pretty fun. Most times the people around you strike up conversations with you anyway while you're waiting for the show to begin. And then once the show starts you're just there to take it all in and have fun. I'd definitely do it!

I didn't mind being alone at the OKC show. I went with friends but they didn't have floor tickets. I walked them to their seats and made my way down to the floor. The first moments were awkward especially since I accidentally knocked over the guy’s beer seating next to me. But there were so many great people around me and I am not shy. I made two new friends and it was a wonderful experience because I had no one else to worry about. I say go for it!!!!
