UHHHH, That makes no sense.....Why would Fleetwood Mac play two shows for less than 3000 people combined for a large piece of the gate???

They got a big up front. It amounts to a corporate gig.

I think it is kind of cheesy too, believe me. But Rock 'n' Roll and big money go hand and hand. It is part of the deal these days and really for the past 20 years.

I guess it's a good thing What's The World Coming To has been dropped from the set list as it's meaning would be totally lost on this audience.

IMO they are definitely damaging their superstar cred with this crap.

I just think it's LAME. So they're going to go all the way out to Iowa with the crew and then go alll the way back to CA and then they're going to what, head to NJ to do the Camden show?

I hope somewhere in their hearts they don't feel that this tour is really "it" for them.

Maybe The Mac is friends with one of the Chumash Casino's investors, so they're doing this as a favor?

Let's hope so. Seriously. This rates pretty high up in lamest thing Fleetwood Mac could ever do.

They got a big up front. It amounts to a corporate gig.
because it seems puzzling otherwise unless they did receive a large GT (Unless like Johnny Stew said "They're doing this as a favor to an investor)...But knowing how Indian casinos here do their business a large GT would seem rather odd.

And I agree it is a corporate gig...Next thing ya they'll probably end up adding several shows at Casino's in Vegas & Mississippi. Guess M$ck needs more money for golf

I just checked & it is on Fleetwoodmac.com. They're doing a fanclub presale for it too

Says they've "secured 50 tickets per show" for the presale - out of 1200
