Your last concert was to see who and when?


Pretty simple, what and when was your last concert?

I saw the opening night of the Fleetwood Mac tour in Minneapolis last night. Christine McVie is back and her vocals were very impressive. It's amazing that she can sing like this at age 70+. This band is always great IMO, but Christine's presence definitely changes things up a bit. One third of the set list that had previously been given over to "deep tracks" is now used to play Christine's hits. Coupled with the fact that Lindsey Buckingham's allotment of songs included several solo acoustic numbers, the net effect was a less rocking affair than the last few Mac tours.

Buckingham did redress one quirk of the last tour. While that set list included a mini-suite of tunes from Tusk, it omitted "I Know I'm Not Wrong", the IMO the fiercest straight ahead rocker on the record. He played it this time and absolutely tore it up. My highlight of the show.

Overall, however, this is definitely a somewhat gentler Mac show, but still tons of fun.

BTW, Stevie Nicks' voice was also in much better shape than I remember from the last tour. Maybe opening night gets you in before the wear and tear of touring takes its toll on vocals, but the singing last night was overall amazing.
Saw Fleetwood Mac last night too. I agree Christine's voice was excellent, smooth and rich. I thought Stevie sounded a bit rough, but this is in comparison to seeing her debut concert tour in '74. The band started out sounding a little off, but they pulled it together for a very fun evening. It was basically 2 1/2 plus hours of there hits, nothing older than Rumors however.
Minneapolis had a real concert last Friday I attended .
MN Orch. playing the Barber Cello Concerto which is a VERY hard piece but was well played and interesting.
Followed by Mahler 2nd which is , IMO, perhaps the most over rated work extant.Well played though.
I'm looking forward to upcoming BSO performing Mahler 3rd Symphony. It's a draining piece but one of my favorites in that there is so much that goes on. Mahler 2nd....OK but not the same.
