I was fretting over that at lunchtime, and could only conclude that even at £137.50 this still has to be done.

it is great testament to my love of them that i'm torn on whether or not to exceed my usual ticket price limit by um 1000%, but i think i'll end up coming out on the 'no' side.

Hm, looking at it that way ... my mistake may be in using Arsenal tickets as a reference point.

But they may never tour again! Except they probably will. But they may lose an essential member! Except they already have. I'm going, but if I were to make a recommendation, I would say just catch Lindsey solo.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 4 February 2013 17:00 (eleven years ago) link
How much did Lindsey solo cost? What kind of venue?
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 4 February 2013 17:48 (eleven years ago) link
If Christine was involved I'd probably bite the bullet and accept my summer of eating nothing but Tesco Value beans.

xpost I didn't pay, but I know it was much less than seeing the Mac in an arena, and he played/plays pretty small rooms.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 4 February 2013 18:10 (eleven years ago) link
Is anybody else trying for these? I'm having no luck. Going to the secondary £200+ sites is as step too far, even for them.
The security check things are getting too difficult as well - I get the words wrong half the time.

Thanks for the tip Merdey - it was showing as *one* ticket left, but had gone by the time I got through. Downside - no fm; upside - I may remain married.
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 8 February 2013 14:07 (eleven years ago) link
ah bad luck. lucky me, having no one to alienate but my bank account.

not quite sure what my logic is whereby £140 + a £2 round trip is less affordable than £64 + whatever a round trip to Paris will cost.

I could've had seats in the 6th row for the Cleveland show but was not willing to drop $149.50 a seat.

Okay wtf is this, dripping out dates over the day of sale? Presumably the gap days are going to get filled now too.

i've heard some rumours that chat with christine is still ongoing.

if not they should at least bring in a ringer. maybe those chumps who replaced lindsey can do a christine impersonation between them.

guessing sitting on the top tier at the o2 would feel nearly as frustrating and out of things as not being there at all?

hey this band just got a 10.0 on pfork

why do u think we're paying big buxxx 2 c them jeez.
― hot young stalin (Merdeyeux), Friday, 8 February 2013 16:53 (eleven years ago) link
the warning that the top tier of the o2 may not be suitable for those with vertigo made it sound kinda cool actually.

lol at whiney goin in on twitter"Websites like Pitchfork should be built to destroy Fleetwod Mac, not enforce them."

just done a GIS and it does look p cool. maybe for watching sport rather than fleetwood mac for 85 quid tho?

just watched the VH1 Classic Albums on Rumors...man, felt bad for John McVie, he still seemed haunted by what happened, like some Vietnam vet with PTSD
― downton arby (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 February 2013 17:14 (eleven years ago) link
I would say just catch Lindsey solo
and, um, stevie solo. the dave grohl sound city live shindig was totally worth sitting thru for stevie's headlining set (and a few other wonderful moments).
― fact checking cuz, Friday, 8 February 2013 17:20 (eleven years ago) link
xp yeah mcvie seems like a dude with regrets on that doc. oh well, he can probably drown his sorrows on his bed made out of diamonds.
― tylerw, Friday, 8 February 2013 17:20 (eleven years ago) link
he and Mick live on neighbouring Hawaiian islands, he can probably console himself somehow.

Pumped that this rare hard to find record is finally back in print! Can't wait to hear what the hype is about, is it streaming anywhere?
― chr1sb3singer, Friday, 8 February 2013 17:25 (eleven years ago) link
oh i'm sure he's fine, it was just kinda weird in that doc how sad he seemed, but i think that was the first classic albums or close to it, so the stuff was a lot more recent i guess
― downton arby (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 February 2013 17:40 (eleven years ago) link
he was really glum in the rock family trees episode on fleetwood mac, too. still really angry about the guy they had to kick out because he was fucking mick's wife. still really bummed that bob welch left when he did. still really miffed about lindsey leaving after tango.
― SOYLENT GREEN IS SHEEPLE (stevie), Friday, 8 February 2013 18:17 (eleven years ago) link
still destroyed that Christine left him.

I loved Nick's explanation: "Chris and John aren't together because John drinks."
liked jessica hopper's review of this on pitchfork but this was OUT OF LINE:
Two years prior to recording Rumours, though, Fleetwood Mac was approximately nowhere. In order to re-establish the group's flagging stateside reputation, in early 1974 Fleetwood Mac's drummer and band patriarch, Mick Fleetwood, keyboardist/singer Christine McVie, and her husband, bassist John McVie, moved from England to Los Angeles. The quartet was then helmed by their fifth and least-dazzling guitarist, the American Bob Welch.
not cool

give it a couple years, pfork will be giving future games a 10.0 too.
