    Seemed to work OK for New Order and ACDC

    New Order?
    Similarities with Joy Division were coincidental
    Spooky - Regret is playing on the radio now as I write

    Surely AC DC and The Rolling Stones?

    first performances with Finn and Campbell. Both do great jobs. Stevie messes up a bit on the chain. Still not the same without Lindsey Buckingham

    As much as I love Neil Finn....without Lindsey I just couldn’t be bothered. I lay this at Nicks door, always has to be on her terms and Mick is just a money grabbing hack who needs the touring money.

    It's going to be interesting to see what the new setlist will be ???

    Will Finn do some of the Lindsey stuff ?? Never going back again/Big Love etc

    I found that hard to listen to, just a totally different sound.
    Had to switch it off straight away.

    They will still get 1/2 nights in the 3arena here No matter how well they sound ??

    Euro promoters will still give out big bucks to get them to play

    ^^^I know.

    I've seen them lots of times, not so sure I'd go to see this lineup.
    Best remember them as they were.

    Was it just me, or did both Christine and Stevie take a while to settle in to their vocals - both started out a bit ropey.


    How on earth does Mick Fleetwood manage to do a full night's show on drums, and fairly energetic drums at 70+? It's not exactly as if he was one of those 'body as a temple' guys. Fair play.

    Neil Finn is playing here with his son Liam on the 16th Jan 2019 in the Olympia as part of a short UK tour with a few Euro shows . I imagine the Fleetwood mac Euro dates might follow in summer or Autumn 2019

    Maybe he just has some great unwind music. This old favourite always works for me :)

    He is a really good drummer. Apparently Peter Green named the band that because he loved the sound of John Mc Vie's base in combination with Mick's drumming and funnily enough they are the only two band members who stuck with the band throughout everything.

    Also I read somewhere that Mick was seen as the kind of Father of the band, someone they looked up too and "Oh Daddy" written by Christine Mc Vie was supposed to be about Mick :)

    I wonder is Lindsey gone forever or might he rejoin in Summer 2019 when he said he was available from anyway. A year ago Nicks said she'd never record a new Mac album and now she's back dictating the tour dates - she's a complete pain in the hole!

    My first time ever seeing Mick perform Tusk live, is one of the musical highlights of my life.
    Breathtaking.
    I went home and had it on repeat in the car for weeks to come.

    Random question- I wonder whether he has any hearing loss like Phil Collins?
