Fleetwood Mac
 
Did anyone else see The Mac in Perth on their last "Unleashed" Tour? I did, and have now bought tickets to see them on their current tour date in Glasgow.
Iconic band.

I saw them the last time that they played the Entertainment Centre in Brisbane a in 2009. Awesome!! Mick played up to the crowd-still a showman.

I saw Peter Green at the Byron Bay Bluesfest a couple of years ago.

As in 'Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac', harking back to the days when they were a real shit-kicking blues band with soul not just some transplanted US expat West Coastified big haired easy listening outfit ;)

Mr Wonderful, go listen to that and chuck your Rumours into the bin ...

He's doing much better these days, plays from time to time. Amazing guitarist and voice, back in the day.

Saw Fleetwood Mac on Rumours tour at Brisbane's old Festival Hall back in the 70's. Think I got an odd ticket somehow so went on my own. Not a bad gig. Probably didn't appreciate it at the time. I was very young.

Yup, he is a one-off too, not many of those guys around these days, the music industry/factory tends to filter them out ... <grumpy old git off ;)>
