Elke rechtgeaarde muziekliefhebber heeft ‘Rumours’ van Fleetwood Mac in huis. Het legendarische, met een Grammy Award onderscheiden album uit 1977 is dan ook één van de meest verkochte albums uit de geschiedenis van de popmuziek. Fleetwood Mac werd eind jaren 60 door Peter Green in Engeland opgericht. Mick Fleetwood en John McVie, die samen met Green deel uitmaakten van John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, sloten zich bij hem aan. De eerste twee albums waren dan ook zeer blues gericht. De eerste bandwissels werden doorgevoerd. Het geluid van de groep evolueerde mee met de komst van nieuwe leden. Eind 1974 verkasten de enige overgebleven originele bandleden Fleetwood en McVie naar de VS. Christine McVie vrouw van was intussen al tot Fleetwood Mac toegetreden. Met de komst van het duo Stevie Nicks en Lindsey Buckingham kreeg de groep een geheel nieuwe impuls. Tot mid jaren 80 regen ze de hits aan mekaar. Wereldhits zoals ‘Go Your Own Way’, ‘Don’t Stop’, ‘Dreams’, ‘Sara’ en ‘Little Lies’ weerklinken nog elke dag op de radio. De fameuze ‘Rumours’-bezetting kwam in 1993 opnieuw samen voor de inauguratie van Bill Clinton als president van de VS. Een tournee volgde. Nadat Fleetwood Mac was opgenomen in de Rock and Roll Hall of Fame hield Christine McVie het definitief voor bekeken.

Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Stevie Nicks en Lindsey Buckingham toeren dit jaar de wereld rond. Momenteel gooien ze zeer hoge ogen met hun ‘Unleashed’-tournee door de Verenigde Staten. In het najaar laten ze al hun grote hits los op de Europese fans! Het is dan ook zeer hard uitkijken naar hun komst naar het Sportpaleis op woensdag 14 oktober.

Kaarten kosten 44, 56, 69 en 76 euro, inclusief servicekosten.

Fleetwood Mac, Dublin, October
by Jim Carroll
Irish Times

Hear that? That’s the sound of groans from Elton John, James Taylor, The Eagles, Rod Stewart and a gallery of other AOR seniors with tickets to hawk for Irish summer shows as yet another heritage act decides to hit Ireland to add some ducats to their pension fund. Fleetwood Mac play Dublin’s 02 on October 24, which neatly puts paid to ridiculous rumours (hur, hur) that they were going to pitch a tent in Stradbally in early September. Per press release, tickets are “from” €86.25 a pop. How high will those tix go? Probably higher than even the Mac got when they were recording “Tusk”.

RETURN OF THE MAC

AFTER revealing the band’s tentative plans to tour the UK later this year, bizarrely on The One Show of all places, ‘70s rock survivors Fleetwood Mac have confirmed they’ll play Manchester for the first time in six years this autumn.

Currently winding its way across the US, the Rumours World Tour will dock at the M.E.N. Arena on October 27.

Featuring four of the original five who recorded the 1977 landmark album (Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie, Christine McVie no longer tours), the quartet will be playing tracks from the record alongside hits from their substantial back-catalogue.

Including the hit singles Go Your Own Way, Dreams, Don’t Stop and You Make Loving Fun, the Grammy Award-winning Rumours has gone on to sell over 25 million copies worldwide.

And in conjunction with the tour, it will be re-released as part of a special CD/DVD box set, which will include previously unreleased tracks recorded during the making of the album.

Formed in 1967 by blue-rocks magician Peter Green, drummer and band custodian Fleetwood remains the only original member.

Fleetwood Mac play the M.E.N. Arena on Tuesday, October 27. £45, £60, £75. Fully seated show. Tickets go on sale on Friday, June 5 at 9am. Call 0844 847 8000.

FLEETWOOD MAC BOOKED FOR SHEFFIELD ARENA

By David Dunn
The Star

FLEETWOOD Mac - one of the most successful bands of all time - are to make their Sheffield Arena debut this winter.

The group featuring Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Lindsey Buckingham will bring their global hits Go Your Own Way, Everywhere and Don't Stop and more on Monday November 2 and tickets go on general sale at 9am this Friday.

1967, the rhythm section of McVie and Fleetwood has never changed although the line-up featuring Buckingham and late 70s sex symbol Nicks was the most successful, producing the 25 million-selling classic album Rumours.

The band began as a traditional British blues band with Peter Green but amid personnel changes relocated to California in 1974 where it added Buckingham and Nicks.

Their first studio offering Fleetwood Mac sold five million copies and in spite of the well documented separation of Buckingham and Nicks the band went on to make the Grammy Award-winning Rumours.

Although the band has never managed to match the success of that, it produced the ambitious and experimental Tusk, Mirage and 1987's Tango In The Night which tendered major hits Little Lies, Seven Wonders and Everywhere.

In 1998 the band was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame where it played an acoustic set that Buckingham, now a prolific solo artist, insisted would be its swan song.

The band have sold more than 100 million albums and remain one of the most popular rock bands in history.

Tickets for the reunion tour are expected to sell quickly, even with a price tag of £45 to £75, plus booking fee. Tickets are available online at www.sheffieldarena.co.uk, in person at the arena box office and by phone on 0114 256 5656.

(THE HERALD UK) FLEETWOOD MAC REUNITE FOR TOUR

Proving the Rumours are right: 

Fleetwood Mac reunite for tour

The Herald

ALISON CAMPSIE June 03 2009

Most of its members consider themselves lucky to still be alive but yesterday Fleetwood Mac, one of the biggest, most successful bands of all time, proved that old rockers never die with the announcement that they are to embark on a UK reunion tour this autumn.

Over the late 1960s and 1970s, the band came to define the chaos of the era with their terrifying commitment to hedonism and drugs and the stormy passions which existed between band members.

However, following a long collective silence, Fleetwood Mac will bring together most of their best-selling Rumours line-up of Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Lindsey Buckingham - now all in their sixties - to perform at a string of stadiums across the country. The only missing member will be Christine McVie, the English singer songwriter who helped steer the band for almost 25 years.

Ms McVie, who married John McVie shortly before joining the band, was one of the main movers behind the band's 1977 Rumours album, which has sold more than 25 million copies worldwide and documented the breakdown of their marriage.

The band will kick off their UK dates with a show at the Glasgow SECC on October 22.

The announcement makes Fleetwood Mac the latest band rooted in the sounds of the Sixties and Seventies to embark on a profitable "comeback" tour.

While The Rolling Stones may have proved that "baby boomer rock" has enduring appeal - their last world tour earned more than £558m - a string of iconic bands are now choosing to relive their glory days and cash in with a host of tour dates and merchandise to match.

The band have not released a new album since 2003's Say You Will, which charted in the UK top 10, but Buckingham said recently that the tour could be a precursor to a new recording.

"I think maybe there was even a sense that we would make a better album if we went out and hung out together first on the road ... Maybe even sowing some seeds musically that would get us more prepared to go in the studio rather than just going in cold. It takes the pressure off from having to go in and make something cold."

FLEETWOOD MAC IN DUBLIN OCTOBER 24TH

Haven't seen the ticketing detail on Live Nation or Ticketmaster, but this article lists a Dublin date on October 24th at 02 Arena:

Clashmusic.com

One of the best selling groups of all time Fleetwood Mac are set to re-unite for a very special UK arena tour.

Emerging from the British blues boom, Fleetwood Mac would go on to dominate the pop market with some of the most popular albums ever released. The band perhaps peaked with the spectacular success of 'Rumours', and the line up that crafted this album is set to gather for an extremely rare tour.

To gather the roots of Fleetwood Mac would take a box set. Formed by guitar hero Peter Green, the band used some of the finest musicians from the British blues scene. However Green would depart in 1970 after a period of mental decline, leaving the band to battle on.

Centred on the rhythm section pairing of Mick Fleetwood and John McVie, Fleetwood Mac would later gather the twin talents of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks.

The group would later inter-marry, but the pressures of success took their toll on the relationships with the band divorcing just a few years later. The inter-band politics seemed to drive them on to greater artistic endeavours, crafting the massively successful album 'Rumours'.

To date the album has sold over 25 million copies, and spawned the classic hits 'Go Your Own Way', 'Dreams' and 'Don't Stop'.

In total, the band have sold a staggering 100 million albums making them one of the most popular rock acts ever. Subsequent albums such as 'Tusk' and 'Tango In The Night' would enhance Fleetwood Mac's reputation as a supreme artistic outfit, yet full scale tours are few and far between.

Fleetwood Mac have only played two full scale tours in more than twenty years. In fact, it is over a decade since the band's last appearance in public together.

Hell, even solo appearances are hard to come by. Since the release of a live album in 1998 the band members have taken time off, with Mick Fleetwood said to be the lynchpin behind getting the group to reform.

More than thirty years on from the release of 'Rumours' Fleetwood Mac remain one of the most popular groups on the planet. A rare chance to catch this band in the live arena, make sure you don't miss out!

Fleetwood Mac are set to play the following dates:

October

22 Glasgow SECC

24 Dublin O2 Arena

27 Manchester Evening News Arena

30 London Wembley Arena

2 Sheffield Arena

3 Birmingham National Indoor Arena

FLEETWOOD MAC WILL PROBABLY TOUR EUROPE AND AUSTALIA

FLEETWOOD MAC WILL BE IN EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA

Stevie Nicks was interviewed today on Philadelphia Classic Rock station WMGK.  When asked about the band going back in to do another album she said they have A LOT of shows to get through first saying the band was touring until June 20th - then taking a break and will probably be touring Europe and Australia after that - then probably back to the US to do more shows - so after all that is done, she hopes they can go in to do another album.

IS THE OVERSEAS TOUR IN QUESTION?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - If you want to sit in the really good seats for a Keith Urban concert this summer, a pair of tickets will put you about back about $170. But in a nod to the tough economic times, the country superstar has also priced some tickets as low as $20 per seat, so fans won't stay home because they can't afford to go.

With the economic news getting worse by the day, artists and concert promoters are trying to make sure fans come out to the stadiums, arenas and concert halls this year by offering ticket deals and other incentives.

No Doubt is giving away a digital download of their entire catalog in exchange for the purchase of a premium ticket ($42.50 before taxes and fees). Coldplay plans to give concertgoers a free live album, while U2 is pricing at least 10,000 tickets to every show in the $30 range.

Summer is a busy time for the concert business. Live Nation, the world's largest promoter, estimates that more than 50 percent of its annual profit comes in the summer months.

But with this year's economic uncertainty, promoters could have a tougher time filling seats.

"In a crowded marketplace in difficult economic times, you want your show or event to stand out as something people recognize as a deal," said Gary Bongiovanni, editor-in-chief of the concert industry publication Pollstar.

Rocker Stevie Nicks, who's currently on a reunion tour with Fleetwood Mac, said times are so bad, the band doesn't know if it can afford to go overseas: "It's so expensive to do that that you put people out of business to go play for them. It's affecting everybody."

Fans can get tickets to Fleetwood Mac's April 22 show at the St. Pete Times Forum for as little as $32.25 (plus service charges).

HEADING TO EUROPE AND AUSTALIA??

Some interesting and really huge information surfaced last night out of the Nassau Coliseum show in Uniondale, NY. This is unconfirmed officially of course, but reports from the "I Love All Access" group of people that paid for the "Meet and Greet" with Mick Fleetwood said that Mick told them that once Fleetwood Mac takes a 12 day break (presumably after the last North American date May 31st in San Diego) the band will be heading to Europe and Australia!! There was no indication given as to which would see The Mac first - but I think this is really exciting....and definitely something for the Australians and Europeans to look out for. 

The shows have been well attended so far in the US with near sell-outs in large arenas across the midwest and east coast - and it seems the idea of going out on the road without backing up new material is paying off for the band.  Make no mistake, the sound and chemistry between Lindsey, Stevie, Mick and John is still alive and well...
