Johns face is so funny in this! What a photo! ..possibly my favourite of what people have posted so far. Gotta love Micks antics...

Does John think they are crazy or is he quite impervious to them by now? Of course, he had his day. I'm sure he put on quite a show for his bandmates when he was drinking. He doesn't even remember most of that now.

It's funny to wonder if he asks, "are you daff?" often or if their zaniness now seems "normal" to him.

Everybody goes to so so much effort and it doesn't go unnoticed, believe me.
No other fan-base in the world would do this.
Best fans in the world, they don't know just how lucky they are.

Thanks again!

Thanks for the kind words everyone. The photo with Stevie and Lindsey in the center and holding hands was right after they came out for the first encore. Security did let the first two (guessing here) rows come up. It was weird, before then even us front row people were not allowed to be at the stage, which in the end turned out to be fine since it was really high. I kind of hurt my neck looking up and around when I was standing there. Eeek! Alicia, I was looking around for you too, but since I was on the other side obviously had the same problem.

Stew, I'm glad you had a good time. The woman sitting next to me was an Iraq vet who was going to meet Stevie after the show. She was so excited. I'm glad Stevie does things like that. Plus she bought me a beer. Go Army! I also met another woman who had never seen the Mac before, and she was blown away. Particularly by Lindsey. Then there were two people sitting next to me who didn't get up the whole time. Lindsey looked perplexed.

I promise to get on the you tube stuff. I've got Silver Springs, some Oh Well, Say You Love Me, Storms, and Gypsy.

On the first night cos we were a large group, we were able to book two adjoining boxes off the first floor. Next to us were a group of four soldiers and their families. Stevie, dog and entourage came up about an hour or so before the show to meet them. There was one guy, 19/20 maybe, he had lost his legs and maybe part of an arm. Stevie spent ages with what I assume were his parents.

Yeah, I think we forget just how good they are. I tend to find the acoustic Big Love a bit routine now but the reaction from people who hadn't heard it before was astonishing, and I guess that's how I felt many years ago. When we got to dinner afterwards, that track together with Dreams, Standback, Landslide & Oh Well were the main talking points. It was funny being in the venue though and each time a song started, friends turned 'round and said ...oh I know this one!

Very cool pictures!! And I really adore the one's of Stevie and Lindsey before the Encore and the final shots of all of them together! Especially when they seem to be in motion!!

Absolutely! Thanks SOOO much not only to Erin, but to everyone so far who has shared their reviews and pictures and videos with us! It's awesome, as it makes me feel like I was right there with you all!

Hugs,

Arlene

Just want to thank all of you for the wonderful pictures and videos you've put up, so far!! It makes the fact that I can't go to any shows a little bittersweet!

kathy1 · #12 03-08-2009, 09:45 AM

thanks for sharing the reviews and i am glad that stevie was able to spend some time with a soldier and his family.

I wondered about Lindsey's kids. Even though Will and Lee Lee were alive, they probably don't remember SYW. I wondered what they would think seeing their Dad play such a big venue. It's a different experience from the solo shows they've seen. Must be exciting.

You got some great photos. I love when there are a series of shots, just seconds apart from each other like that. They capture a moment.

Stevie is sure smiley in these shows. I think that's what we all wanted.

Thank you.

Here's a link to my pics, which aren't as good as Alicia's, but I tried!

Your pictures came out great Erin!

sjpdg · #15 03-08-2009, 04:25 AM

Your pictures are awesome!!!! I especially appreciate that you took some great ones of Mick! It seems too many folks are more focused on Lindsey and Stevie and ignore Mick and John completely when talking about and photographing the band on this tour. It's a little disappointing. It is afterall, "Fleetwood Mac", not "Buckingham Nicks", so thank you again for taking some good shots of the only 2 original band members left. I really, really, really appreciate it and all your shots are quite good. Don't short-change yourself!!
