Henley/Nicks Tour Update

[HenleyFan]

We're slowly hearing more dates for this tour. Wouldn't an official announcement be great? Here's what we have so far:

6/3 Philadelphia, PA Wachovia Center On Sale 4/23

6/4 Holmdel, NJ PNC Bank Arts Center On Sale 4/23

6/30 & 7/1 Atlantic City, NJ Borgata Casino On Sale 4/30

7/9 Chicago, IL Tweeter Center On Sale 5/9

7/16 New Orleans, LA New Orleans Arena On Sale 5/16


We're also hearing they're going to do VIP tickets through I Love All Access like Don and the Eagles have done in the past. Don't know if that will include a meet and greet, though.

Yes an official announcement would be MUCH appreciated from either the Nicks or Henley camp...

I need to start making plans, deciding where I'm going, etc etc. It looks like this is going to turn out just like Stevie's Vegas shows, no official announcement until all the dates are on ticketmaster and going on sale the next day..lol

Thanks so much for posting here! I'm wondering why they're playing where they're playing. Fleetwood Mac didn't even sell out the Wachovia. Why Wachovia and not Tweeter in Camden??

Thank you for the news! Wachovia? Indoors for better sound or maybe to protect Stevie's voice as much as possible. Lots of arenas. Between Henley/Eagles fans and Nicks/Fleetwood Mac fans this tour should do quite well. This tour, as short as it seems to be given the Eagles tour schedule and Don's solo work, should go great. Reading the liner notes on Don's and Stevie's albums reveals they have a lot of band and back up singers in common in the past (ha! even Sheryl Crow!), and they've done quite a few benefits together over the years. I'm really looking forward to seeing what they will put together. Sure, there's going to be some "givens," but, especially with Don being 1/2 of this duo, there could be some surprises. Stevie did "At Last" and a few other numbers for Don's benefits.

Then they should play the Spectrum as it is much smaller. PNC Bank is outdoors, Borgata is outdoors and I believe the Tweeter Center in Chicago is as well. Something just isn't adding up, IMO. I mean, yes, i'm happy this will give people a chance to see Stevie that aren't able to make it to Vegas but I just find the whole thing...odd

Great I wonder how much those will be? Frankly, I am sick of paying a lot of money just to be in the first few rows. I really wish that they would give the fans a break.

Remember that Sanctuary for Illegals benefit they did in September 1985? Stevie, Don, Jackson Browne, etc. It was a few days after the same lineup did a show at Universal for one of Don's environmental causes at the time, Mulholland Tomorrow.

The Borgata no longer has the outdoor concert area...only an indoor "events center". They reportedly built onto the casino where the outdoor concert venue was..

The past has proven it to me... Boston was announced on a monday, I THINK U2 was as well. 2004 Fleetwood Mac was too (right?)

I have heard that from many sources and it would make sence b'cuz there are shows going on sale this saturday.

[no_spoken_word]

Well I would HOPE an official recognition of this tour would happen before shows start to go on sale on the 23rd, but who knows?

I haven't been down there recently to see what they did to the fabulous field the FM concert was on (we were all a little surprised about that setup). I wonder if they'll be in the events center or the music box. One seats about 3,700 and the other, 1,000. For that kind of money, i'd hope everyone has an excellent seat.
