He talked so much that I had to leave the show early. There may have been like 20 minutes left, and he had only played about five songs. He told more old man jokes than played the blues.

The 40th Anniversary is in reference to the band's 40th anniversary, and why a lot of fans want to see a tour with some former members.

If it's just another "Greatest Hits" tour so Mick can pay his tax bill then I think I'll pass
Same here, but THIS TIME, instead of just bitching about it on message boards, I'm going to actually write to Mick via his management company to let him know how I feel.

Hard to conceive that Fleetwood Mac was around for a whole decade with 9 different incarnations before you were born, eh?

Mick's all about the money. This'll be another Rumours Geezer Tour. How freakin' pathetic.


gawd, I hope I'm wrong.....

Oh, you are very funny.

No, what I meant was, it was my understanding that this was a like Rumours anniversary tour...making it 30 years. But I can always appreciate a lil' sarcasm...

But isn't EVERY Fleetwood Mac tour a "Rumours anniversary tour"? By looking at their concert sets since 1982, you'd sure think so.

Well, you got me there. But try telling them any different. After all, Lindsey likes to play I'm So Afraid, because it's sooo varied and completely different, every single time he plays it live.

Well, now he's got "Murrow" to play (and he would've had "Tango In The Night" in 1987 had he stayed in the band)...so he can still play the same solo in a different song.

I'll take a "new" and "spontaneous version of Murrow any day over the other option, be that as it may.
