You say Chris is doing something Stevie couldn't do, while I'm asserting the 5 fireflies are doing something no subset of 4 could do. We're probably arguing way too much over something that is most likely a matter of semantics. |

![]() It isn't the truth the Chris IS Fleetwood Mac, just as it's not true that Stevie is. They're part of a band, and they both bring something to it.

![]() ![]() if you are honest, you'd say unlike most here, not some. rare people on this board are really championing the whole band. and no matter what people claim and whether they admit it to themselves or others, many posts speak pretty clearly on where certain people's preferences lay:

![]() The high prices are due to the humidity in Arkansas and don't have anything to do with Christine McVie.

![]() Wow they came in as low as 17th last year. Makes sense from what I've been told. The longer they toured without Chris, the farther they fell.

so in 2003, report you quote has them as doing more shows than anybody other then Dion, making $69 M for reported shows (66 dates), with average ticket price $83.37. in 2013, report you quote has them making $62 M, we know average ticket price was below $100, and they had just a few sold out shows. below is this year's pollstar so far - their average price is $132.10 (and sure, higher than anybody on that list, and higher than their ticket prices from 2003, 2009 and 2013 which all seem to hover around $80), they had maybe even 90% of sold out shows so far, and they are making average $2.4 M per show which at just 40 dates so far would be about $80 M already and they have at least 40 more dates booked.
