Oh Well will be played in Europe (Mick says)

I know in 2004 they switched Beautiful Child for Sara. But when they come back to certain cities in June, I really don't think anything will be different. If anything, I have a feeling the only changes will be Oh Well in the Europe Leg AND the small possibility for a change at Christine's London show. I just wish that they were a little more interesting and added Albatross--that one is still played in the UK today, people would love to hear that rather than a song they played on the last tour.

Something I wanted to say: I'm actually more disappointed with Lindsey for some of his choices in the set than Stevie. Stevie absolutely has to do most of the songs: I was at the concert---people jumped up when she sang Gypsy, Rhiannon, Dreams, Gold Dust Woman, Sara, Landslide. She has the biggest fanbase and people expect to hear her classics. Honestly, she only has 1-2 spots in any Fleetwood Mac concert for something different, and she chose Sisters of the Moon. Her only option, I think, would be to put a new take on one of the songs, but since Stevie missed some of the rehearsals and isn't known for changing up songs, that was never going to happen. With Lindsey not having as many songs he absolutely has to do, I wish he picked differently from Not That Funny AND Eyes of the World. Those two have been done before and I actually thought they were the ones that took the life out of the show, when people were leaving their seats (not Sara as some people have stated on here)...another cut from Tusk (What Makes You Think You're The One, or The Ledge if an uptempo song was needed), Bleed To Love Her, Blue Letter, a Stevie duet with Thrown Down, I Don't Want To Know, or Crystal all would have been infinitely more interesting choices in my opinion.

Honestly, I think any of his deep cuts are used as an excuse for a bathroom break by many. I remember in 09 that Go Insane and IKINW were met with evacuations to the bar/toilets, particularly the former.
