Unfortunately, they are playing The Hollywood Bowl close to me, which is a venue I never want to go to ever again. Hopefully I will catch them at another show.

They have "green" in the URL twice, but no mention of Peter Green. :D

Stevie Nicks shouldn't worry about where the band fits in todays music. Fleetwood Mac should just do what they do best.

Their website was relaunched a week or so ago.

I guess they know most of their fans are geezers as their tour dates font is huge:

No interest since Lindsey and Stevie joined the band.

Somebody must need some fast cash...

Don't get me wrong. I like all things Fleetwood Mac, even though I'm partial to the Peter Green era. But it all seems so disingenuous to me when they do these "phone it in" type tours every few years. Lindsey Buckingham, as great a guitarist as he is, is still a fucking nutjob ham. Stevie Nicks sounds like the duck from Aflac on steroids. And won't anyone tell these people to stop dressing like the cover of Rumours? Just imagine a 77 year-old Elvis in that rhinestone jumpsuit. Need I say more?

For me, Christine has always been my least favorite songwriter in the band. I thought their last album "Say You Will" without her, was one of the best the band has ever done. A very underated album IMO.

I saw the last tour and thought they were great. I just saw Buckingham in a small theater 2 weeks ago and he absolutely killed it. He is on top of his game right now.

The closest they are coming to me is Detroit or Chicago (both about a 2 hour drive), but I am probably going to try to hit one of them.

In any other universe, this would've been a hit for Fleetwood Mac...
