How is Peacekeeper a classic? You yourself said that all the singles from SYW were a flop, if I remember.

by the way, what were the ticket prices for stevie's TISL tour? were they really that bad? i think FM tickets are just unusually high, so it seems like stevie is cheap and no one wants to see her.
No one is turning thsi into that type of thread other than the people who said Stevie is the big draw. She isn't, Fleetwood Mac is.

Besides for some major markets, almost all of Stevie's shows were under $100. Most around $70.

And I don't quite understand the logic of Stevie tix being cheap, so nobody wants to see her vs. Mac tickets being through the roof and people are dying to see her.

I said all of the singles after Peacekeeper were flops. Peacekeeper was the only single to hit the Hot 100.

Am I the only one who thinks that 70 dollars for tickets is still really good for stevie? i mean most big name artists today, that are selling millions of albums, can't even get that much for a ticket.

In any case, the estimation that GYOW and Tusk are the only ones is utter horse ****.

Come up with another musician who can put as much of an impact into Goodbye Baby and Beautiful Child as the star who sings them.
idont think any one is saying that he isnt a great if not one of the best guitarists and producer around!

It's great, but how come those tix didn't sell-out consistently and do much better, seeing as how Stevie is the biggest draw?

All I was trying to say, was that you said that Stevie's solo tours were selling "like ****", but i still say that less then 100 and around 70 dollars is a lot of money!

I was referring to the comment that Lux was grasping for straws when she said that Lindsey is one of the driving forces behind their lush execution.

she is the biggest draw because if any of the other members of fm were to do a solo tour they would not sell as well. that makes her the biggest draw right?

I meant they sold like **** attendance-wise.

No one bought them on the scale that they bought Mac tickets.
