Fleetwood Mac 'coming to UK in September'

Mick Fleetwood confirms band will play UK shows and also hints at new album plans

Fleetwood Mac are to play live shows in the UK in the autumn, Mick Fleetwood has confirmed.

The band are due to embark on a world tour from April of this year, with US dates already in place. However, there are yet to be concrete plans for any shows in the UK announced. Speaking to BBC 6Music, Fleetwood confirmed that the group are heading across the Atlantic, most likely in September or October. "We're doing a big world tour that starts in April. We're coming here [the UK] in September, October and maybe a bit longer. We're doing a lot of work here so we are coming," he said.

The drummer also revealed that there is a new Fleetwood Mac album in the pipeline and that new songs will be released online in the coming months. "We decided, myself and Lindsey [Buckingham], went into the studio and created a calling card for Stevie (Nicks) letting her know we wanted to make new music. We had the greatest time and we made some really good music. Then her mother died and it wasn't time for her to be singing. Just recently though she has sung on three of them and we've recorded one original song of hers. So, we're going to go crazy and there will be something out that we will play onstage and that might become part of a long term plan over the next year. Our wish is going to come true and we will finish an album. I hope there is a demand for it, after we throw two or three songs out on the internet, and we might make an album."

It was long rumoured that Fleetwood Mac would perform at this year's Glastonbury Festival. However, the booking of a number of US dates on the same weekend in June appears to rule that possibility out.

Meanwhile, a reissued version of the band's classic album 'Rumours' was released this week to coincide with its 35th anniversary.

LOL at Mick using the same phrase as Stevie.

So, I guess he's not much into the internet either.

I am trying not to be delusional, but when Mick says "we're doing a lot of work here" it makes me wonder if they plan on doing something else in the UK aside from concert dates. Are the concerts they're playing the "work" he was talking about.

Also, in another interview, he expressed hope that maybe they could play Glasonbury in 2014.

I found it very interesting that Mick says he was the one who started that Glastonbury rumour to begin with.

When they ran with the story (in 2013, not in past years), they were quoting Stevie saying that she would love to do it.

Yes that happened several days ago. I don't know if it means anything
There's a rumour that they'll be in France on the 11th of October, in Paris, Bercy, but i kind of doubt it since in 2009 they did Le Zénith, which is like half of Bercy, and i don't think it was completely full (well maybe i didn't really look around to be fair)

A few years ago they played in Ahoy Rotterdam and in Sporpaleis Antwerp.
Rotterdam was sold out so i think they will come again.
Antwerp was not sold out but alsmost. So i also think/hope they will do Anwerp again!!!

They probably will but their following is bigger there. Le Zénith was PERFECT though it was one of the smallest venues of the tour. I WANT LE ZENITH PLEASE

As far as i know the European Tour in 2009 did sell very well in each country so i think they will come to same venues........ Than again the venues has to be availible, if not they will move to another venue in that country.

Fleetwood Mac sells out of presale tickets for 'Go Your Own Way' UK tour
Fleetwood Mac February 6, 2013 By: Jodi Jill

http://www.examiner.com/article/flee...wn-way-uk-tour

Fleetwood Mac fans might have been whimpering about the sky high prices for the shows in the United Kingdom, but the seats sold out anyway. Within minutes on Wednesday the pre-tickets of the Go Your Own Way tour sold out online leaving anyone who wants to see the band will need to wait until Friday for the public offering of tickets.

The band once again performing for the fans is a big deal, but the tickets are even higher. Some are suggesting that the opportunity to see the band for the price is too much. While that obviously isn’t the opinion of every fan (the band sold out after all) there is some question on if the band will deliver on stage.

Fleetwood Mac will start singing in Dublin, London, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow at the end of September and finalize the concerts in early October. Those fans hoping to have a shot at the seats on Friday had better be ready to compete. With thousands of fans looking for the best selection, there will a fierce competition to find a perfect seat.

Similar story to the one you posted Michele.

They stand to make a packet on the UK/European leg the way tickets are going.
