VIP Tickets: Meet Mick Fleetwood, See Fleetwood Mac Live 1st 5 Rows in Europe, Australia and New Zealand

Great opportunity... A unique opportunity to not only see the band from within the first 5 rows... but to also get up on that Fleetwood Mac stage and meet MICK FLEETWOOD!  You will never forget this day... promise!  It may seem like it's a bit costly, but when you consider the cost of just a regular ticket in a fairly decent seat and weigh it against what is on offer here... this is actually a really great bargain.  Even if you are not all that excited to meet Mick, which I assure you will as the date draws closer, you come away with a guaranteed great seat in the house, on the floor, up front!
