What are your ultimate deep cuts for Stevie to play live? Mine are If You Ever Did Believe, Gate and Garden, Long Way To Go, and Sara (solo). Curious how Sara would sound without Mick, John, Chris, and Brett in 2023.
I think any of the songs you mentioned would be fantastic! I’d love to also hear Think About It (a song she wrote for Christine), Nothing Ever Changes, Blue Lamp, Battle of the Dragon, and/or Ooh My Love. Long Way to Go is pretty underrated, IMO.

She has a ton of deep cuts to choose from, so I really hope she does at least two.

Are you thinking about seeing her live?

Yours are great too.

If she drops a new single Monday or announces that a new song/music is coming or will be performed on the tour, I'll definitely see her. Otherwise, I'll have to consider based on the info released Monday. If it's an album track tour, I'll go. If it's same as last year, no. I feel it's going to be a new tour and new songs because it's an arena tour.

I'm conflicted about seein her too. I skiped the Fleetwood Mac tour because I was so mad about Lindsey being fired and she didn't come to Pittsburgh last year. I wasn't able to work in my schedule to see her at other cities, plus the price for tickets was way off the charts. I would love a new album, but I think it's just a tour and if the set list isn't changing, I think I'll skip. I would love any chance to go to Vegas though.

There are definitely some pros and cons about seeing Stevie this year.

CONS:
- It may be a similar setlist to her last tour
- She’s older and it shows in her vocals and physical performance
- Some people are still angry about her role in kicking Lindsey out of FM

PROS:
- It may be a different setlist than her last tour
- Despite her limitations, she’ll probably give a good performance
- This may likely be the last opportunity to see her live.

I’m really on the fence. The only reason I’m even considering seeing her would be because, after Christine’s death, I’d like to see her while I can. I am so thankful I got to see Christine with Fleetwood Mac in 2019, but I really regret not seeing Buck/Vie live the year before. So to avoid that regret, I may see her this tour, especially since the last time I saw her solo was for Trouble in Shangri-La.

Ultimately for me, it’ll likely depend on what her setlist is.

I wasn't mad that Lindsey was fired. I went to four 2018-2019 Tour shows because I love Stevie and I thought she would do Tusk songs, Tango songs, and 90s songs.

After I saw the shows, I was mad that the difference in the setlist for me from tours with Lindsey was the pre-75 material and the 3 covers they did. That's not what I paid to hear. It also made me mad that there was not even a new single released for the tour when you have new members in a band. But I understand people also love the pre-75 material and are there to hear hits, even if they're not FM songs (DDIO, IGY, and FF are all hits)
Hence, why I now believe that FM lineup was just for a tour and that's it.

Now for me, I think it's up to Stevie now to really give a show for her die-hard fans. And if it's without a new song or songs, Carlos needs to remind her of the Enchanted Tour because maybe Waddy is creating the problem of keeping 10 constant songs in her set (Waddy wasn't on Enchanted because of his possession of child pornography)

How is that a con? There aren't going to be protesters in the venues

Well, I meant that would be a reason some people wouldn’t see Stevie live, because they’re still holding a grudge against her. Just like a con for me would be if the setlist wasn’t different, a con for someone else might be that they’re still angry she had Lindsey fired.

I see. You know what's interesting, just an observation, Is that the music heard in the teaser for the tour announcement is Lindsey playing guitar

They didn't use one of Waddy's versions of Gold Dust Woman

Since Fleetwood no longer exists even as a cash grab oldies jukebox touring unit Stevie and her management may also be trying to fill that void to make even more $$.If you can no longer see Fleetwood Mac you can still see 'the focal point" and most famous member. She/they were pretty sharp about this when Christine suddenly quit and returned to England after just a few month FM tour in 1997. The Enchanted box set was rush released and Stevie promptly hit the road to a much bigger payday than her last solo tour.

They’ll always exist in our hearts

Maybe I’m naive about how these things work, but I really don’t think Stevie was the one who made that intro about the announcement coming up on Monday, or chose the music to accompany it, so I don’t think there was some sort of message she was sending regarding FM not touring anymore. Just my opinion.

The message is intriguing, I just wonder if it’ll be worth the hype. Using “gold dust” in the teaser makes me wonder how it’s connected to the upcoming announcement but I guess we’ll find out soon.

It was more my personal opinion of what her management might be thinking than me gleaning a message from the AD using a Fleetwood Mac song. Like I also mentioned this was already done for her Enchanted tour in 1998 when Fleetwood Mac abruptly and prematurely stopped touring on a highly lucrative tour. More power to her for jumping on that one . I saw her on that tour and it was a very good show.

Reminds me of when Lindsey opened for Tina Turner. They played bits of GYOW and “Don’t Stop” on the radio adverts. Just what he was going for in 1993
