Default Favourite Fleetwood Mac-related event of the year.

(Ok, let's try it again.)

There was lots of Fleetwood Mac (and related) activity this year, I was just wondering which of these stand out the most to you. There can't be more than ten options, so if Something Big ruled your world this year, do let us know by posting about it.

For me the biggest thing has to be hearing some Buckingham Nicks live, followed closely by getting to hear some precious bootlegs from the post-Peter Green pre-Buckingham Nicks era.

Easily, In The Meantime. Nothing else even comes close. The first Christine McVie solo album in 20 years! My second choice would be all those great 1970-1974 bootlegs that surfaced this year.

I don't even think I have to say what my favorite thing of all those was. That John Q&A was pretty darn exciting for me. I feel like that's my baby.

I might add here that he recently mentioned on his own w/ no prompting from me the possibility of maybe getting back into it in 2005. heheheh, yeah baby, that'd be good...!

A lot of those other things in that little voting chart were also pretty amazing. It's been a cool year FMac-wise.

Well for me I just had to put down the Fleetwood Mac concerts. There is just nothing else like it for me. There was lot of really great stuff this year but being right there is the best.

I hope that this time next year there will be a box to check for 'Lindsey solo album and TOUR!"

Last year and this year were great. Hopefully next year we'll have a Stevie solo album and tour

I could tell by your sig.

I voted for the live Buckingham Nicks, but my second choice would be the scratchy, partial Fritz recordings. Javier sort of let the ball drop on that, unfortunately.

I'd still like to know just who spilled the live BN -- was it Hoppy? maybe Calderon? maybe Tom? maybe just some pal of someone's? Hmmm. . . .

In The Meantime, followed by the Reissues.
A Fleetwood Mac without Christine is like a day without sunshine.

I went with the Reissues. I just love adding music to my collection. The versions of Silver Springs, Oh Daddy, and finally having a clear copy of the Cleaning Lady Version of Sara made my year.

I didn't chose seeing them live because they cancelled on me 3 times! 2003 was a better year for me with the concerts.


Honorable mentions: LIB and the Destiny Rules Documentary.

Exclamation Concerts!

I only saw 2 this year, but that made my year! Last year was even better! It's really has been an excellent couple of years for FM fans. We are blessed.

I am sorry Curtis. Must have been the show on Stevie's birthday. I know that a lot of people were really crushed about that and I can't say that I blame them. Hopefully 2005 will be a better year for concerts for you.

I would have to say the shows with the Buckingham Nicks Live a close second. I am just blown away by the Paint It Black version of Rhiannon.
