Dallas Texas was the perfect backdrop for my 100th show! I began my voyage in Dallas at the Starplex in 1989 and ended up for my Centennial show in the same city. I was disappointed at the stage lighting system. They were all LED lights, not the good ones that burn 15 million degrees. I kept thinking there was something wrong because the stage was so dark. However, the show was great as usual. Mick does an incredible drum solo, but he didn't do his trademark drum pad thing. Definitely worth the money though! There was a guy there that escorted Stevie on and off stage that had arms that looked like he was at least third degree black belt. My instructor was 2nd Dan, and he didn't have those forearms. I dubbed him "the professional clock cleaner." Do not mess with that guy. His arms look like he chops trees down in his spare time. Believe me, not even meeting him, the guy is darn good. Great choice, Stevie! Ask him if he's ever heard of a "Wild Bill Allen."

Still beaming from the show last night, I have been attending FM shows since the late 70's when I was in high school, and have followed their "roller coster" history. I have "grown up" with them and I can say, yes it appears "The Mac" is right where they need to be now. I didn't see the anger that was present in past tours. It has all come together , full circle and I have been along the entire ride. What a ride. Everyone was 1000% at last nights show. The quite John McVie, you may not take the spot light but you complete this group and don't ever forget that! Mick, wonderful drum solo, we did have a blast!!!! Lindsey, you are an Awesome guitarist, and when I see the young people of today getting into the same music I did as a teenager, well that says a lot about our generations music and musicians. Sharon & Lori, sang as beautiful as ever, your additional musicians on guitar and keyboards were Wonderful as well, so much Talent on that stage. Last but not least My Queen of Rock & Roll; Stevie Nicks. You never let me down!! Your voice gives me chills and tears in my eyes. I was so afraid I would miss this show this time, but Thank God, I won some tickets on Lonestar 92.5!!!! Not the best seats, I forgot what is was like to be up so high in the 3rd sections, but I was at least there, I am very thankful for that! I usually buy my tickets the first day, but it was Christmas time and I had to buy for my grand daughter, Rhiannon. My highlights were Rhiannon, Gold Dust Woman, Gypsy, Stand Back, Sara and Sisters of the Moon!! So glad you did this one. And I love the new "or lost & found" songs. I really hope you do a new CD SOON!!! You all blend very well with each other and we love you so Thank you for a Wonderful show. My niece went with me and it was her first time to see ya'll. She knows I am Stevie's #1 Fan for life and has always wanted to share the experience with her Aunt Judy and 6-4-13 that finally happened. Keep Rocking you put the young bands to shame, you are Wonderful and your fans Love you all!!!!!

I got to hand to my favorite band on the planet. This was my 1st time to see Fleetwood Mac. You guys litterlally blew us all away with how good you sounded and the fact that you actually sang and not to a backing track. What quality you guys give your fans. I would like to thank Stevie for the kind words she said in regards to all the fans that keep listening to their music like its the 1st time we hear it. The energy was incredible and the people chattering and talking when we left the stadium solidified that everyone felt the same way. It was truly a heart felt emotional connection that will always be treasured by your biggest fan that was center stage nose bleed section. I was the screaming crazy maniac in case the band heard me. But I had such a great time. Can't wait to be at the next one.

Absolutely fabulous. My third concert and I hope they keep coming. Only complaint is that Stevie's mike needed to be louder.

Saw the show last night. In the four times I have seen FM concerts this was far in away the highlight. Great nights entertainment and I am still rocking to the beat!

The show was incredible! The band's energy was positive & peaceful. Lindsey Buckingham outdid himself. I've seen the band and Stevie Nicks about 17-20 times over the last 35 years. Tonight was as good as any other show any other year. The band thanked the fans, but it is I who am thankful- for the music & many memories.

So I have always said that my dream job would be to review concerts. It is no secret to anyone who knows me that I am a HUGE Stevie Nicks / Fleetwood Mac fan. So I was so excited when I got a chance to see them live in Dallas, Texas. About 7 we walked across the street from our hotel to the American Airlines Center. Once we were in I headed straight to the Merchandise table, where I purchased my assortment of Fleetwood Mac goodies. As we took our seats other concert goers started to flood in and Ii knew the crowd would be a fun one. At about 8:20 the venue was filled and the anticipation was rising. Then the lights dimmed to the roar of the crowd. In the shadows you could start to see the band taking the stage. The last to take the stage were Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. They entered hand in hand to the eruption of a joy filled crowed. The nights set list started with Second Hand News and the crowed jumped to their feet, danced, and sang along. This excitement did not wain at all. The crowed devoured every story and song that the band offered up. The most notable crowd favorites had to have been Sisters of the Moon (such a treat), Landslide ( always a crowd favorite) , Sara, Gypsy, and I’m so afraid ( a Lindsey show stopper and such a great show of his skills). The night ended with not one but two encores. The band closed expressing their touching appreciation of their fans support over the years. Stevie also expressed a heartfelt appreciation to the Dallas fire fighters. The band left the venue and their fans with little doubt that Mac is most definitely back and in top form. This was a wonderful concert by a wonderful and top notch band. There is absolutely a reason that this band has endured this long.

Long Live the Mac. Also I have to add that Stevie looked absolutely gorgeous!!
