Audience Intervention at last nights Lindsey Buckingham show in Wilmington, DE

Lindsey Buckingham Live in Wilmington, DE at World Cafe
June 11, 2012

The Delaware audience last night managed to finagle "Rock Away Blind" out of Lindsey... It's only the second time he's played this live, both times by request.  Seems this one was more by intervention. I wouldn't be surprised if this shows up in future setlists... 

Only 4 shows remaining for this leg of the tour.. Washington, DC tonight!

Review Lindsey Buckingham Live at Musikfest Cafe - Bethlehem, PA 6/10/12

FLEETWOOD MAC'S LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM GOES HIS OWN WAY, SOLO AT MUSIKFEST CAFE
by John J. Moser
Lehigh Valley Music

When he plays for Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham always seems like the intense lead guitarist whose fervor is about to bubble over at any moment.

Playing alone and acoustic Sunday at Musikfest Café at SteelStacks in Bethlehem,  Buckingham was precisely that: a fervent singer and guitarist who performed every song with such intensity that it did, at points, boil over.

FLEETWOOD MAC TRIBUTE ALBUM UPDATE:

PLUS.... A little more info on that Fleetwood Mac compilation/tribute album that's been surfacing little by little over the last couple of years.  Just to refresh your memory, Michelle Branch posted on twitter back in February, 2010 that she was in the studio working with Waddy Wachtel on the Fleetwood Mac song "Say You Love Me" with Stevie producing... saying it was for a Fleetwood Mac Tribute...

Jump ahead to May, 2012 and classic rock station B102.7 reported that Trixie Whitley contributed to a song that Marianne Faithfull had recorded for the album and that it looked like it was coming out this year.

And just today... Paste Magazine posted an interview with former Shutter To Think frontman and Baby ringleader Craig Wedren and when asked by Paste was was next for him he said, "I’m doing a Fleetwood Mac cover song with Annie Clark from St. Vincent. for this Fleetwood Mac compilation which I guess is coming out this summer." 

So even though this project appears to be coming together... it's still very much a bunch of bits and pieces of info that don't make a lot of sense right now... Some obscure non-mainstream artists (aside from Michelle) seem to be associated with this project.  Not sure if it's leaning towards country, or alternative or what... We shall see.

Review: Lindsey Buckingham June 10th Bethlehem, PA

Lindsey Buckingham takes a risk by performing at the Musikfest Cafe
By Matt Smith

Photo Gallery (6) by Matt Smith

Lindsey Buckingham and his music can be described as quirky and eccentric, but it cannot be overlooked that the man is a risk-taker.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member is on the tail end of a six-week tour billed as "An Intimate Evening with Lindsey Buckingham." And that is mostly what the show was for the sold-out crowd of 642 gathered Sunday night at the Musikfest Café in the Artsquest Center at Steelstacks in Bethlehem.
