Go Your Own Way (1990)

I've seen this before many years ago but noticed something tonight. At the end Stevie is literally laying into the audience. Rick Vito stops playing guitar and has to go over and offer his hand to get Stevie back on her feet. This show is from Albany, NY. Its the same night of the incredibly strange Stand Back where Stevie wont sing and the song goes on for a long time before catching rhythm again. I think she had taken a klonopin with a shot of whiskey before this show.

Happens around 6:30

Never liked Billy singing GYOW. Not that bad but I found it so weird as Stevie singing Don't Stop. Though at that moment you say, 6:30, what did that guitar solo have to do with the song?

I am not a fan of Billy's signing either but its the vintage Mac closer.
The guitar parts are just making the song their own style

That was pretty painful to watch. I'm glad Stevie managed to pull herself out of that period.

Rick's solo at 6:30 sounded like a variation of "The Bonnie Banks o' Loch Lomond" although I doubt that that was his intention.

Makes you wonder where security was. But she looked happy with her big stuffed animal. This is Stand Back from the same show. She was eating those klonopins like M&Ms.
She messed up the band so much and I love how they keep playing until they all catch the groove again.

She's feeling no pain

I've always loved Billy's voice. It's warm and sweet, like Christine's. Which is why they mesh so well.

She was smiling and looking happy and just really into the music, trying to listen to the crowd wanting them to join in!

Cocaine makes me EXACTLY the same way!
Nom,nom,nom...

Rick & Billy were light years better than the 2018 lineup.

I thought after 1986 Security kept a better eye on her. The camera pulls away so we don't know how she got in that position but it looks like her body and legs are on the stage and she is laying into the audience. Enough of a shock to make Rick stop playing. But she was happy about whatever happened.
She was really playful during this tour and danced like crazy.

They were better. And adding household names(Tom Petty and Crowded House) to Fleetwood Mac was a stupid idea, IMO. "We fired our in house genius, so how about a Crowded House song?" So dumb(yes, I'm taking to you, Stevie).

True. They were even better in 1990 than 1987. They were comfortable enough to play a little more improvised and gelled better IMHO. They were really comfortable in their shoes by 1990. The Stevie/Rick walk while face to face around 4:00 is pretty cool too.

Well my favorite is Rick's Another Woman. Since I'm not a fan of Save Me, I bought the single just because I realized Another Woman was included on the CD—and "Everywhere" too, for that matter—both live 1987. I thought he would contribute more songs to BTM, and in that style. That wasn't the case.

He was playing that song for many years before joining the Mac. Mick remembered Billy taking him to see him play vintage Mac tunes. When Billy got the call Mick knew who else he wanted. It must of really freaked Rick out. Rick was playing small clubs playing songs just like this.
I am not a huge fan of this song. I loved when they played Rattlesnake Shake on the Tango tour. I even preferred Rick's Stand On The Rock live compared to this.
