I, too, was 18 when I first saw Fleetwood Mac. It was 1982 on the Mirage tour. I still remember the show -- it was great!

I knew she wouldn't be there, I didn't know how they'd sound without her cause that was all I knew. They sounded perfectly fine to me.

I was a pre-teen when I first saw the band. I did not like that first show because I would have preferred being at an Elton John concert.

She's on there, David. She told me she was avoiding you like the plague!

I'm kidding, of course. You can find her on my friends list!

Here is a picture of the ticket stubs. Unfortunately they ripped the ticket stubs in half when you entered. No scanners back then. The Fleetwood Mac side wasn't on the remaining half.

I was at Anaheim Stadium a couple of days later...no Skynyrd, just Faces, Loggins & Messina & FMac. My first FMac show seeing the "new" lineup. I was 19 at the time.

Wow! That must have been a great show. Stevie & Lindsey out on the road for the very first time with Fleetwood Mac , and they got to play some stadium shows supporting some very big names.
My first show was on Dec 6th 1979 at the L.A. Forum. I was 16 years old. It was the biggest show I had ever been to-my first in L.A.- and they were very LOUD. The set was great-it was the Tusk Tour, and they did alot of the new songs. I remember Save Me A Place, Angel, and Sara in particular. And the Chain & Rhiannon were awesome onstage at the time. The memories are very hazy now.

I was 14. Thursday 31 May Manchester Free Trade Hall.

I wasn't allowed to go unless my older sister came with me. Contrast that with when I saw them in 2003 when I couldn't read the programme because I hadn't brought my glasses with me!

My first Mac concert was at the Cow Palace in San Francisco on the Tango tour. Rick and Billy totally rocked it. Mick blew my mind with "World Turning" and it was just a wonderful night.

17. The Tango tour, 1987.

July 1,2003 OKC - I was 33 at the time...Still seems like only yesterday that Debbie & I hung out with Gerald/shackin' up pre-show, Debbie went to the Redhawks baseball game as Gerald & I met up with Livia for the show.

I was 13. October of 1997 for The Dance tour. MGM Grand Arena, Las Vegas. I also saw them in Reno on the same tour. Not great seats but I'll always be glad I got to see them while Christine was still in the band.

The Catdancer · #87 02-26-2011, 03:49 AM

I was 17 and it was the Tusk tour.

Went with my dad and a girl in high school I had a crush on. We're still friends to this day.

Man, I had no idea so many people on this board are so young ! I was 16 when I saw Fleetwood Mac at the Cow Palace in San Francisco on the Tusk tour. And I was 17 when I saw Stevie in SF for the White Winged Dove (Bella Donna) tour. Yes, I'm old !
