REVIEW: Fleetwood Mac Live in Houston

Fleetwood Mac at Toyota Center, 6/5/2013

A few things occurred to me as a spectator at Wednesday Night's Fleetwood Mac show at Toyota Center:

They are not in the touring game for a paycheck;
This band has a ton of mutual respect for one another, and for good reason; and
All of us could really take some good inspiration from this group, whether we are musicians or not.

In short, if you are a fan of Fleetwood Mac, see this band while you can. It will be worth every penny.

Fleetwood Mac's "Sad Angel" reflects on Lindsey and Stevie’s complex relationship

Going their own way

When I first heard Fleetwood Mac, they were already way past their prime. Their glory years were long gone but it never showed when Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham took the stage. Nicks’ voice has remained as sultry and phenomenal as ever and Buckingham’s mellow guitar licks have somehow managed to get cleaner over the years.

The British-American rock band was formed way back in 1967. The band has undergone numerous changes over the years, but most fans identify Fleetwood Mac with Mick Fleetwood on the drums, John McVie on bass, Lindsey Buckingham on the guitar and Stevie Nicks on vocals.

“Decadent rock star, ’70s survivor, gypsy songbird, white-winged dove—the inimitable Stevie Nicks has entranced millions of fans worldwide with her poetic lyrics, sultry singing and featherand-lace style. In 2010 Nicks embarked on the recording of a new solo album, In Your Dreams, produced by former Eurythmics mastermind Dave Stewart. With cameras in tow, documentarian Stewart and diva Nicks set up shop in her home studio and reveal their collaborative creative process. Shifting dynamically among video formats, painstaking recording sessions and revealing interviews, this magic-tinged musical journey is a loving and tuneful portrait of the eternally bewitching Gold Dust Woman.”-South by Southwest

Fleetwood Mac attack - Friday, June 7th

Fleetwood Mac will perform Friday, June 7, at the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Tampa, which sounds like a terrific reason for a road trip.


The band's 2009 show at the old Amway Arena was an exercise in highly elevated nostalgia. Although that tour was called "Unleashed," the band didn't offer too many wild embellishments on its substantial list of classic songs: "The Chain," "Dreams" "Gypsy," "Rhiannon," "Second Hand News," "Say You Love Me," "Go Your Own Way."

The most spontaneous moments came courtesy of band member Lindsey Buckingham, who segued from intricate finger-picking to fiery guitar-god excesses. His performance foreshadowed a transcendent 2012 solo concert at Plaza Live.  

Buckingham alone would be worth a road trip.
