Would I use my last dime to pay and go see Buckingham Nicks be and sing Buckingham Nicks? YES. Will I spend another penny to see Fleetwood Mac in yet another golden oldie concert tour. NO! <br />I have no doubt whatever the set-list, it will be a glorious show and tour. It is after-all Stevie Nicks in concert, what else could it be?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-48285450925159146302012-06-29T03:52:05.783-05:002012-06-29T03:52:05.783-05:00Easy, please! NOT Mick. Nobody ever wrote Mick....Easy, please! NOT Mick. Nobody ever wrote Mick. MANAGEMENT, tour promoters, career strategists working for a band in their mid 60s- in case you haven't read, opening night for SN at Jones Beach is heavily papered, discounted and giveaways. Stevie's the best and the turnout will be fine.<br /><br />But Mick's no villain, here, at all. The 2013 FMac tour can maybe be huge in a way these solo tours just aren't looking likely to be. HE realizes the aging of the audience and of themselves as performers. It stultifies SN's solo career not to do a solo set- it's why she's not in the rock and roll hall of fame, as of yet. Each tour since forever, her sets rely on a quarter or a third of her solo set being Fleetwood Mac songs. Her tours, her choices. And Nicks always does a good show. But a solo tour done as a retrospective of her work apart from Fleetwood Mac is the way to get in the hall of fame as a solo artist. <br /><br /> Mick and management seeking the best tour promoters and deals know that SN fans see her solo and with the band, and want fans to hear the Fleetwood Mac songs next year. Smart and reasonable request. She'll still keep some in the set, because she just doesn't see the bigger picture. She's 64, and the time is now to secure her place in music history as someone capable of doing a solo show without songs she'll sing on the next Mac tour. Cutting 'Rhiannon' and GDW- if it happens will be so smart. And returning 'Landslde' to FMac would be great. Oh, no Stevie concert can't have Dreams or Landslide. But she's an artist.<br />She could, she doesn't want to.<br /><br />It will be a great SN tour nonetheless, so don't get me wrong. But Stevie WON'T be releasing rock albums in 10 years, and it's time she does her solo career proud, makes a distinction of why she is a solo act worthy of being awarded for her solo career by delving into deep album cuts, like 'Wild Heart' or really anything from her solo albums. PLEASE for once in her life, leave FMac songs for FMac tours. It's up to her, but it's her only way into the Hall as a solo act. For certain.<br />Also, it will give her audiences a break from the too-sung stuff. We'll hear it next year Mick's management, not Mick, is SPOT ON. <br /><br />Have a great opening night EVERYONE and best always to Stevie, Mick, John and Lindsey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-4280973046116298682012-06-29T00:51:31.471-05:002012-06-29T00:51:31.471-05:00when I said that about the Mick side of the MAC I ...when I said that about the Mick side of the MAC I did NOT mean it about John McVie.

IF only! I hope it's so. Word is that Mick Fleetwood will be at Jones Beach. May come onstage for 'Edge'/ 'Edge walk' to be phased out after first few shows, if he hasn't seen too many Mac songs.

Amazing show. I've seen Stevie many times on various tours but this was my first outdoor Stevie show. My only complaint about the setlist is the constant inclusion of "Gold Dust Woman" and "Rhiannon." I love these songs, I really do, but people were much more excited for "Leather and Lace," which was added back into her tour set last year. Fleetwood Mac is touring next year, so we'll "Rhiannon" and "Gold Dust Woman" live all next year. Bring back "Rooms on Fire" "Planets of the Universe" and throw in "Everybody Loves You." As for IYD singles ... "Moonlight," in my opinion, would have been the best choice for a lead single. And while I agree with "FWIW" as a second single, the third single should have been something like "Everybody Loves You" or "My Heart." "Secret Love" would have made a fine fourth single.MplsMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16559454511654308597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-87569045791292049962012-06-27T12:10:48.739-05:002012-06-27T12:10:48.739-05:00Bella Donna, The Tribute to Stevie Nicks decided l...Bella Donna, The Tribute to Stevie Nicks decided last year to add songs from IYD.

Instead they released "Secret Love", while a decent album track, this song doesn't have a strong enough hook. The thinking behind releasing this track was most likely the narrative Stevie played up in the press, about the mystery of whom she wrote about back in her heyday! Meanwhile, Secret Love did not transfer well on stage or television performances! Instead she could have been talking about the NOW, and her new exciting creative collaboration with Dave Stewart if the catchy & rockin' "In Your Dreams" had been released, or bringing back social awareness about a large community rising beyond a difficult challenge had "New Orleans" been released! IYD was a great record filled with so many wonderful songs!

And she's right about IN YOUR DREAMS. It's simply wonderful from beginning to end and it's better to promote something fresh and new than to rely solely on past achievements, as incredible as they were. As a member of Stevie's "army", I've played it for friends, given it out as a gift and posted videos on Facebook. I also agree that Warners screwed up SAY YOU WILL and could have done way better with IYD. Peacekeeper, Thrown Down, Say You Will, Steal Your Heart Away and maybe even Everybody Finds Out were all obvious hits. Although Secret Love is a good song, it wasn't the strongest choice for a first single. Moonlight or Italian Summer made much more sense, but then there's that issue of Stevie being unable to perform certain songs live because of her fear of the high notes, even though Waddy says the notes are there, but Stevie's nerves get in the way. For What it's Worth is great, but Warners didn't push it to country radio even though Landslide won Stevie an award as the best-selling country single of the year when the Dixie Chicks did it. They just don't seem to care...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
