Probably.
It's a small market and this tour is building momentum through word of mouth.
Reviews have ranged from great to excellent, so I think we'll see venues selling out as the weeks go on.

Wasn’t it originally the only show that was a back to back? That seemed odd to me. The entire tour has at least one day between shows. I think that is important for them.

Yes, in this article with the keyboardist who replaced Brett, he says to save Stevie's voice they don't do any back to back shows.

And, per him, she *is* now "running the show"

“Stevie is running the show,” Peterson said. “But they discuss it. No one is yelling at each other. It’s very, very diplomatic. And the principals are involved. Ultimately, I think Stevie and Mick are the final decisionmakers.”
DISGUSTING that Tambourine B/witch is now running the show. WTF

Yes, how utterly disgusting it must be to have a woman in charge of the band. Fleetwood Mac needs an alpha tough guy like Lindsey to make sure Stevie stays in her place!

Okay, is anyone surprised it’s the Stevie show by this point? Look at how many songs she’s inserted herself into. That was obvious after the first show.

As a fan of the overall body of work by Fleetwood Mac, I have to ask, so what? If anything, Stevie’s stock has risen a bit with me with the additions of Black Magic Woman and especially All Over Again. This is the type of set I’ve wanted (especially when Hypnotized was in the set, you assholes) for decades. If Stevie gets that, then that means she gets it, she gets the band’s history, the 51 year legacy. She’s not only NOT intimidated by material she wasn’t involved in, including a song made when she had an acrimonious relationship with the band, she’s the one embracing it. She appreciates the history of Fleetwood Mac on a level that surprises me. Play on.

Someone posted a photo of the actual set lis elsewhere and it was titled "Option 17." Maybe there is more than one set. Hypnotized definitely needs to return.

I mean, All Over Again???? I didn’t think anyone but David, Homer, Chili, and me even remembered that.

Agree. If this band must continue, the setlist is a great direction. After years of dullsville FM and Stevie solo setlists, she got it together for 24K tour and leading
this tour. Great that she’s running the show.

It’s not that it’s a woman it’s hiw she got there by freaking FIRING there musical director. Please you know it’s not about that. And screaming sexism won’t change what she’s done.

Finally, someone else who understands the sexism/misogyny/double standards behind many posts here.

What double standard? Like Stevie getting to delay FM tours and refuse to record with the band, but Lindsey's not allowed to?

This constant harping about sexism is ridiculous. Criticizing a woman doesn't automatically equate to sexism. A woman can be a narcissist too.
