Well this should excite the masses! Fleetwood Mac are part of an upcoming documentary on The 1982 US Festival. Check out the official trailer below... Fleetwood Mac come in at about the 2 minute mark where they are shown on stage, in crisp clear footage, singing a bit of Go Your Own Way... They are also on stage introducing Apple co-founder and US Festival visionary, Steve Wozniak.
This looks so cool, I can't wait to see it! The documentary will in some format be released to coincide with the 30th Anniversary of the Festival this Labour Day September 3, 2012. Originally scheduled for a Labour Day release the documentary has been pushed back a bit as they are awaiting final interview approvals from key artists that performed.

NEW Interview: Mick Fleetwood re-confirms Fleetwood Mac World Tour - Begins March 2013
Mick Fleetwood spoke with Mike St. James of The Eagle 92.9 about The Blues Masters Concert he was to Host on Friday August 31, 2012 in Lincoln Nebraska. Mick sadly couldn't attend because of some personal issues that came up.
FLEETWOOD MAC TALK
During the interview Mick talks about Lindsey's one man show plus Stevie touring with Rod which segues into Mick re-confirming next years Fleetwood Mac plans where come March, 2013 Fleetwood Mac will be starting a world tour with rehearsals set for January and February. Mike St. James asks Mick about the conflicting reports where Mick was quoted as saying he was pessimistic about Fleetwood Mac ever getting back together again [Playboy Magazine "The Ghost of Fleetwood Mac" April, 2012] vs Stevie's recent TV interview where she confirms the band will tour again in 2013. Mick states that at the time he thought with Stevie working her solo album so hard playing all over the world, he said he figured she would need and want to take at least a year off as a break and was afraid it would be too late. But said much to his surprise, Stevie's really excited to get back together to play. Christine Mcvie was talked about and Mick says there's no chance of Christine coming back. They've let go of that hope many years ago. Mick said she nearly came up on stage the last time they played Wembely in the UK in 2009. But at the last minute she backed out and decided just to watch the show from the soundboard.
So it looks like this tour could roll-out much in the same way the 2009 Unleashed Tour did where shows began in March, 2009. Tickets and the first round of dates for that tour were announced in mid-December, 2008... If this tour follows the same path, we have a bit of time yet before we hear when and where the band will play.
Check out the full interview at The Eagle 92.9. It's about 16 minutes long

REVIEW: Lindsey Buckingham - Cendera Center, Fort Worth, TX
By Ron Dempesmeier
Classic Rock Revisited
When you are a voice and a songwriter inside a big machine like Fleetwood Mac, you must feel somewhat anxious to stretch out and impress the world with your own voice. Lindsey Buckingham may have felt like an equal, but he’s been the first among equals when it comes to his influence on the production and arrangements of the mighty Mac. Although his former paramour Stevie Nicks has had the far more popular solo career, the more experimental and technically impressive songs have graced Buckingham’s solo albums.
Appearing in a black leather jacket, black v-neck shirt and dark blue jeans with his still unruly hair (although higher on the forehead), Mr. Buckingham’s lean physique was practically wired as he unleashed cascading torrents of arpeggios and searing solos on the more aggressive songs. There was nearly a standing ovation after each song – the audience at the Cendera Center was into his music and his instrumental and vocal prowess.
His set featured a lot of recent selections from his later solo albums like 2006’s “Under the Skin” or last year’s home recorded “Seeds We Sow”. “Cast Away Dreams” started the evening off peacefully enough with delicate finger picking and yearning lyrics. “Bleed to Love Her” ended with a very long solo that got the audience primed to rock. When Buckingam performed “Not Too Late” his constant picking pattern became almost a pure glissando as he ruminated about his solo career in comparison to belonging to Fleetwood Mac.
Setlist:
- Cast Away Dreams
- Bleed to Love Her
- Not Too Late
- Stephanie
- Come
- Shut Us Down
- Go Insane
- Never Going Back Again
- Big Love
- I'm So Afraid
- Go Your Own Way
Encore:
- Trouble
- Rock Away Blind
- Seeds We Sow

"It takes a lot to awe me. Celebrities don't impress me. They never have. But tonight, I was awed. Hearing Buckingham's screams above the mic made me realize that this was Lindsey Buckingham in our little town. Lindsey Buckingham! The man that wrote all of those songs, produced all of those albums, and cranked out what has turned out to be a soundtrack that has played in the background for a good chunk of my life. Wow."
