We all feel the lows & for those of you waiting for the energy of earlier tours, say 82 and before, it dosent exist. It is what it is, and actually, for where they are, agewise, I think they are doing great.
It's a different band now-without Christine-Stevie seems to fall back as a support to Lindsey instead of displaying the fire she did say in 82, during the Mirage tour. I mean, they have taken some chances. Did we ever really think they would do "Storms", no matter what it comes across like today? For me, the vocal on the Lp can never be topped, but I am glad they are taking a stab at it anyhow.
They are not perfect, but I am glad they are there. If I wasnt going I wouldnt be posting endlessly bumming the people out who do chooose to go.

I do not have the unrealistic expectation of ever seeing her perform with the energy she had when she was in her twenties and early thirties,I am happy that I had the chance to witness it live then.As mentioned in other post this will be the first tour with the exception of Time I will be sitting out in over 30 years and that is because the tour is for no other logical reason than to make $$$..With the exception of the brief "Safari " stadium tour in the summer of 1978 when has Fleetwood Mac ever toured without an album to promote?The band has lowered themselves to the grasping ,mercenary depths of the Eagles for this tour.You're entitled to your opinion and I mine and as for my "endless" posting I can post as much as I like as long as I abide by the forum rules.
