A big Mac attack - Friday, June 7th

Fleetwood Mac will perform Friday, June 7, at the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Tampa, which sounds like a terrific reason for a road trip.

The band's 2009 show at the old Amway Arena was an exercise in highly elevated nostalgia. Although that tour was called "Unleashed," the band didn't offer too many wild embellishments on its substantial list of classic songs: "The Chain," "Dreams" "Gypsy," "Rhiannon," "Second Hand News," "Say You Love Me," "Go Your Own Way."

The most spontaneous moments came courtesy of band member Lindsey Buckingham, who segued from intricate finger-picking to fiery guitar-god excesses. His performance foreshadowed a transcendent 2012 solo concert at Plaza Live.  

Buckingham alone would be worth a road trip.

What this show hasn't cancelled yet?!

Hopefully it will not cancel. Actually unlikely. Tampa loves the Mac and vice-versa. They were standing in the nosebleeds in 09' screaming and clapping from start to finish. One of the best places to see a concert indoors.

Why would it be cancelled?

I see the trolls had to over to this posting because comments in the other one have been stopped.

As the article states "Road Trip". I'm driving in the am. After seeing opening night in Columbus I'm so looking forward to Friday night. Was hoping for a 2 night gig with Lauderdale but oh well. One night in Florida is better than none. Surprised no Orlando show.
Plenty of good floor seats available on ticketmaster, as well as section 114 row 1. Fl2 row 2 for best offer on ebay. Go for it, see you guys there for a wonderful night with the Mac!
