^^ One thing I notice you're missing is some Tusk representation. I'd love to hear a Lindsey song from that album that's not Not That Funny or I Know I'm Not Wrong. (besides the eponymous title track). It'd be nice to get Think About Me and a Stevie song that Christine could contribute to, whether that be Beautiful Child, Sara, Angel, or giving a different feel to last year's Sisters of the Moon.

Also, I said this on the last page, but does anyone else think that Christine's first song will be a big hit/welcome back! moment?? I was thinking she'd do Say You Love Me first, but maybe Everywhere fits that bill too.

I think Love In Store is very doable. I have the Mirage live version in my files...if Christine's voice is a little lower, it'll still be fine for this song. It's a good faster song too to break up a set and start again after an acoustic set. Plus, they might recognize it sounds better live than Hold Me.

If Lindsey's doing Sad Angel, if Stevie resurrects a "new" song like she did last year (Without You), I hope it's Fireflies. I'm still confused why they never do Crystal.

I will not accept them leaving Sara out of the set list, that is the most beautiful song, and I would love to see them perform it live with Christine back on the keyboard/piano.

They definitely have to do Say you love me and You make loving fun, I could live without Everywhere because they did it on the dance, I would much rather them do Little Lies, since Lindsey bailed on the Tango tour, we never got a proper live version of that. Love in store would be cool too, but I really want to see Hold me, it's my favorite FM song.

I'm assuming they will close the show with Songbird, so there's that one. I would also rather hear something of Christine's from Tusk, think about me would only be good because it uses all three of them. Angel would be great to see. Crystal from the white album would be awesome too.

[bethelblues]

Yeah, I would be most disappointed if they have Christine back and she plays the same songs that were recorded live for The Dance. I don't need to hear Over My Head, for instance. If that's what she wants to do, fine. But she has plenty of hits; give us songs from Tusk (Think About Me, No. 20 hit), Mirage (Hold Me, No. 4; Love In Store No. 22), and Tango (Little Lies, No. 4) that haven't been performed live in ages or ever at all with this lineup (esp. Little Lies) or an awesome deep-cut (like Isn't It Midnight). Plus, I'd love to hear her voice on different Stevie and Lindsey songs, apart from the same-old standards. This all comes back to whether Christine would be forced/encouraged to play certain songs (be it by Mick or by the tour manager) or able to do what she feels like.

That's bovine fertilizer. The version they played on the Shake The Cage tour was great. If you can't appreciate the live versions they played in 87-90, then I question your hearing. I'm so effing sick of everybody thinking that Fleetwood Mac's guitar playing ONLY revolves around Lindsey Buckingham. Technically speaking he's in the bottom 3 of all guitarists Fleetwood Mac has ever had.

They should do "Crystal" but Stevie's "Practical Magic" version with her singing and only her singing...CM should be able to play the keyboard parts well enough...

If I could upvote this, it would be at the top of the thread.

[Nicks Fan]

I think the setlist will be the same old same old. This is what it will likely be

The first 4 songs will likely be the following
1. Say You Love Me- They open with a CM number that everyone knows
2. The Chain- As over played as it is this song is not going anywhere.
3. Dreams- Also way overplayed but it is not going anywhere either
4. Everywhere- A hit that worked well live and will likely be back

After that in no certain order I predict

5. Rhiannon- Another staple that will not be going anywhere
6. Sara- Since it is has been in the set since 2004 I think it will back for 2014
7. Tusk- I hope they have Chris play the Accordian
8. Big Love- The novelty of the acoustic version has worn off but it will be trotted out yet again.
9. Landslide- Another one that wil never be dropped
10. World Turning- I wish they would do something else for an encore but I am sure this one is back again
11. Dont Stop - This is another setlist staple that will return this year.
12. Songbird- If this is not in the set I will be shocked
13. You Make Lovin Fun- With Chris back you can bet they will bring this back in the set.
14. Stand Back- This one should never have been in the setlist to begin with as they have numerous songs from the FM cataloge that they could have done instead but I suspect it will be back yet again
15. So Afraid- Another song that needs to go. How About TITN if he wants a song with a guitar solo.
16. Go Your Own Way- It will close the main set for sure.
17. Gold Dust Woman- As much as I like this song I wish they do something else to change it up again.
18. Gypsy- Likely will be back again


That leaves 6-8 songs where they can possibly surprise us. I predict

19. Seven Wonders- The American Horror Story performance likely generated some renewed interest in the song and I think it may be back in the setlist.
20. Angel- I think based on the recent tours with Stevie doing one of her Tusk songs that has either never been performed live or not done in a long time that this song will see a return to the setlist. If this does not make the cut then I suspect one of her other Tusk songs will.
21. Hold Me/Think About Me- I think one of these will be dusted off since they were both hits and may have been forgotten by the casual fans.
22. Little Lies- I think this has a chance given that it was a hit. I think it depends on how much TITN songs they want to dust off
23. Second Hand News- Every Tour that Lindsey has been a part off has had this song in the set so it should be back.
24. Never Going Back Again- This one should be back but I could do without hearing this one for a while in favour of something else. Perhaps Save Me A Place
25. Lindsey song from Tusk- I really do not care what it is as along as it is something they have not done in the past 15 years.
26. Bleed To Love Her- Sincde they did it on the Dance tour they could ressurect this one and it would be a way to play something off of SYW that Chris played on.

If I had to pick 5 dream songs to hear live I would go with

1. Wish You Were Here- This could be a good song to do at the end of the acoustic set.
2. Cant Go Back- This one could replace EOTW if they are thinking of doing that one again. It is a good uptempo song that could go over well.
3. Thats Allright- I think they need to do a different Stevie song from Mirage and this is my vote.
4. Brown Eyes- I think this song is one of her best.
5. I Dont Wanna Know- They have never played this live and it seems wrong that while Rumours is way overplayed they have never done this one.

I don't want a reiteration of The Dance. I've already got the DVD. They'll have to include the hits like OMH, but I would love to hear Isn't It Midnight. I hope they're a little more adventurous this time. If Christine can make her return singing Get Like You Used To Be, they can handle some of the lesser known songs with the rest of the band.

My heart would break if they didn't do Sara.

[tomv]

I would love to hear Heroes Are Hard To Find. Always liked that song. Classic Christine McVie. They could even dedicate it to Bob Welch.

[Japhry]

Stevie could sing "Black Magic Woman" on this tour. I'm serious!! Her voice is perfectly well suited for it these days...

On What Makes You Think You're the One -
2012 Making of Tusk radio interview

Interviewer: One critic pointed out What Makes You Think You're The One" was the greatest break up **** you song ever written.
Lindsey: Really, I think I was still working through my last little bits of issues with Stevie not that many years ago. You know, I was the one who had been left."

Maybe this is the reason he hasn't played it.
