Fleetwood Mac

After being under the weather for a few days, I got better just in time for the FLEETWOOD MAC concert last night. WOW ! What a GREAT concert. Their talents are better than ever.
Although the group has taken some breaks over the years, some very long breaks; it was obvious they never stopped honing their craft. I came away with a new found respect for Lindsey Buckingham's playing ability.Mick Fleetwood pounded like a mad man. He was like a desperate stage coach driver whipping his team to run faster, faster as if their very lives were in peril. Fortunately John McVeigh kept everyone in time. No easy task with Buckingham and Fleetwood playing with a vengeance. Actually it would seem to be an impossibility. Stevie Nick's singing is as entrancing as ever. I only wish I could have heard more of her voice over the liquored up Steubenville girls' singing and screaming from behind us.
Yes, girls. They were not even babes when Fleetwood Mac was born. Thus attesting to the bands appeal to multiple generations. Every time they come back from a break they are embraced by a new generation. As it should be with this much talent.
Fleetwood Mac's concert was one of the three best I've seen, the other two in this group were the Eagles and the Rolling Stones.
