Lindsey as performer

[CarneVaca]

I really can't decide if I am going to see Fleetwood Mac again when they tour next year. It isn't that I wouldn't love to see it. I would. But I am a little concerned that the show again will be too orchestrated. If the band releases a concert video, we can expect to see the same songs and even the same banter at our local arenas. Fleetwood Mac lacks the stage spontaneity that makes me want to go see a band live. If they played a lot of new songs and some rarities, I'd would be very happy.

Having said that, one of the most charming things about Lindsey as a performer is his apparent humility. When he talks during The Dance video his nervousness is palpable. And I don't think that's an act. He seems almost insecure, then he starts playing and blows you away. That is a wonderful quality in him as a performer. He's good, he knows he's good, we know he's good, but he almost seems a little afraid to unleash all that goodness on us. As if he is insecure about how it will be accepted.
