It'd never happen but a full band version of Big Love as an opener -

I, for one, am beyond THRILLED it is in the set. It is one of my favorites.

This song and Angel I still hope they perform someday before they retire. Although I would love to hear others too for the first time like Paper Doll, No Questions Asked, Thrown Down, etc... These 2 are the ones that I realisitically feel she'd at least consider

There are lot of hopes and personal expectations, but I feel no empathy for fans already anticipating they will bummed out if this or that song isn't in the set. It's an impossibility for the band to fulfill everyone's wishes. They would have to perform a four hour set! They are not Bruce Springsteen.

My positives:

Christine is back.

You Make Loving Fun following The Chain is the perfect transition to Dreams. Great call to whoever thought of it. Dreams was always an abrupt energy buzz kill after the build up of The Chain.

If we live to hear the Seven Wonders, I'm not going to compare Stevie's vocal to the original recording, which I always found to be a cocaine-induced shrill in the verses. If anything, I bet I will enjoy the song more with her voice as it is now.

They are essentially performing the entire Rumours album, sans the perpetually ignored I Don't Want to Know. Usually I would complain about that, but this may likely be their last tour together. So it not only placates the mass of causal fans, it honors one their most lauded albums,one that will always keep close company among the highest esteemed albums of all time.

It will be the first time Little Lies will be performed live with Lindsey in the band. And if it's true, I welcome the return of Hold Me. Strange that it was a big hit, yet a one tour song, appearing again only on Christine's solo tour.

I like the four block set of Tusk songs. I'm unclear if Stand Back will be back. I read (something about someone in the band being upset) that a particular song was cut from the set. (Gee...I wonder whose song that could be?)

It would be nice if they were a little loose and swapped different songs and varied the set during the tour, but they are not that kind of band. Aside from a few adjustments early on, their set list is set in stone.

I hope they don't change anything except trade one of Stevie's songs for Sara. Maybe another song for Gypsy also. I hope they don't change any of Christine's songs. I can't wait to hear the crowd when she starts playing Songbird.

Whilst "Seven Wonders" live was never a favourite of mine, I'm very excited to see it in a setlist. It's nice to see Stevie actually acknowlege the years between 1984 and 1997 on stage for the first time in 14 years.

While I won't believe a thing that "leaks" until opening night is finally upon us, I would be thrilled if this list turns out to be correct.

I think Seven Wonders will be great. The opening music is going to be a great grabber to many. I think it is going to do well in the set.

I LOVE Gypsy. I find it to be one of the greatest songs ever recorded. But it just does do well on stage for me. So ........


Replace Sisters with Sara

Replace Everywhere with Over My Head

Replace Brown Eyes with Why

Replace Big Love with Bleed to Love Her

Replace Blue Letter with Say Goodbye

And I think you have one killer set list. And Why, Say Goodbye and Bleed are so much better with the harmonies this band is known for!

This is a quote from an interview on the official FM website so these songs are for sure i think:

In August, the band — including bassist John McVie, Christine's ex-husband, who had been battling cancer — convened in Los Angeles to rehearse and cherry-pick its fat catalog for a career-spanning set list. Fans can expect a few rarities and surprises atop a bedrock of 10 or 11 landmarks, including Rhiannon, The Chain, Go Your Own Way, Big Love, Stand Back and McVie's Say You Love Me, Little Lies and Hold Me.

I like that they're keeping it all 1975-1987. It's more meaningful and appropriate that way.

Tusk was way different in style and sound than Rumours. Silver Springs would not have fit. Plus they released it as the bside to the GYOW single prior to Rumours.

It should have been released as an out and out single to support the album... a bit like the early Beatles singles that never appeared on the original albums they supported.

This is great! Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are amazing. They always perform a few cover songs. I don't think anyone in their audience feel robbed of one of their own songs because of it. If it's a great performance by a great band, it doesn't matter what the **** they play -- none of the bull**** nonsense of "I'm mad because I paid good money to hear the songs I want to hear."

Why replace a fun catchy upbeat song with a real downer? Doesn't seem like a solid trade off. Plus I don't recall Say Goodbye being full of harmonies.

Say Goodbye was perfect for the last tour. Just look at the end part of this concert; I said this before, but it's going to be rocking! So many uptempo/dramatic songs in a row...the audience will be insane!! Gold Dust then So Afraid, Stand Back, Don't Stop, Go Your Own Way, World Turning, Blue Letter...it's gonna be exciting!!
