Just the SYW tour for me. I saw them in Nashville (twice), Knoxville, and Champaign, IL. I decided to pass on the Unleashed tour because of finances. I will likely hit one (or two, at most) shows this time.

I've never seen Fleetwood Mac live before (I've only seen Stevie and Lindsey solo), so this will be my first.

I saw every tour from Tusk through The Dance(including Time). I have little interest now, since the queen retired.

I'm considering this tour, not so much for the band, but the company I will keep.

Although Lindsey did blow my socks off last month, so I do want to see him again.

The Dance -
Nov. 23 1997 - Marine Midland Arena Buffalo NY
Tix were a gift for my 13th birthday! I was beyond thrilled to be there, but the acoustics were a WRECK! The bass was so loud, it made my ribcage tingle and shake.

Say You Will -
First Leg
May 15, 2003 - HSBC Arena Buffalo NY
First concert with great floor seats - 15th Row Center. Awesome.

Second Leg
July 21, 2004 (?) - Blossom Music Center - Cleveland / Akron OH
Best tix yet - 4th Row, wound up more like 2nd row center in reality. Awesome storm blew in during the second half of the show. Trees on the lawn were blowing sideways. Great show, great memories. I also met a ledgie for the first time - Hi Josh!

March 09 - Unleashed Tour Quicken Loans Arena Cleveland OH
Sat in the nosebleeds, just couldn't do the expensive seats that year.

2013-
Hope to swing for a great seat - thinking this may be one of the last chances I get!

saw LB solo numerous times during the last 2 years, either with his band or a one man show; never saw any FM shows. i wish i've seen a show during SYW tour.

will probably go to see a show this year when they come to town.

Hahaha.I started to listen to country music in 1976 as I was in high school.Yes I got my balls busted by my friends.At that time tunes from FM's white album were playing all over the radio.I used to switch back and forth from the country station to top 40 stations to listen to "Rhiannon".."Say You Love Me""Landslide" and. Over My Head" .

In 1977 I went full time being a country bumpkin when Rumours was released.
My first concerts was Olivia Newton -John in May 1977 and Dolly Parton and Mac Davis which opened for Dolly Parton later that summer.

So I missed out on those earlier FM tours. Plus up to 1987.Plus Stevie's first two tours.

I have to say thanks to all of you guys for sharing your memories of FM tours that some of us did not make it to the shows.It feels like I was there with you.

My first tour seeing FM was back in 1987 on The Tango In The Night Tour and been going to the shows since and been Seeing Stevie since 1986 rock a little tour. I have loved every tour thru today.I am a maybe on this tour if tickets are available by the time I put money a side for it.I am ok too if I miss the tour as well. If I do go to this tour in April at Mohegan Sun it will be last concert to attend.I am just getting older and the concerts are not as enjoyable anymore and not worth the money either. Anything over $100 is to much for me and that is my opinion.I had my fun and just have to put it torwards other things in my mid-life so who ever is going enjoy the show I might hit the show if tickets are available.

That is amazing! I was 7 So no, didn't go. I have no excuse for the rest, except finances. However, I have seen Stevie and Lindsey solo. Can't wait to go next year! Hopefully twice

I have seen them on every tour since the tour they did without Stevie, Lindsey, or Christine in 1993. Three times from the front row. I have been truly blessed!

Wow...it really saddens me to hear you all share your stories/concert experiences with the Mac and to know some WILL NOT being going. I only say this b/c when I saw SN in 2010/11 I believe...I swore to my mom and sis that I Would NOT be paying to see her solo again (to see/hear her rehash the last tour) Unless....she had something NEW to bring.

As luck would have it....of course she had a new album and a show that rocked the Wiltern....so of course....I was drawn back in. Well...I went and it was worth every penny.

My very 1st concert was BTM in Chapel Hill, NC where (I had nose bleed seats) but walked almost right up to the stage when "Rhiannon" was played.Enough to see SN in her "coked/klon" state and I Loved it! until security told me to go back. I have been to every SN/FM concert since.

Fave show highlights: The Dance in Columbus...dancing in the aisle with my friend Bonnie to Gypsy. SYW in Cbus again opening night to hear RTTG and DRulz. Unleashed tour with my sis when we had floor seating....my sis was totally blown away with LB's talent...and of course Go Insane electric!

Can't wait for opening night in CBus....hope for a rockin' good time ala Mac!

Every Mac, Nicks & Buckingham tour since 87 with the exception of a missed Buckingham show for OOTC & the cheesy FM w/ REO Speedwagon etc. tour.
Besides wishing I could have seen FM back when, I wish most I had been able to see Chris solo.
