Fleetwood Mac: They 'Don't Stop'

The latest tour of the latest incarnation of Fleetwood Mac came to New Jersey on Saturday and Dan and Julie were there for an evening of classic rock. The current lineup has drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie, plus singer Stevie Nicks and lead guitar/singer Lindsey Buckingham. Missing is keyboardist/singer Christine McVie, who retired from the band after a 1998 tour.



The band, which traces its history back to 1967 and saw its biggest success in the late 1970s after Nicks and Buckingham joined, can still put on a good show. Age has reduced Nicks' vocal range but she compensated well, reworking tunes to lower some of the high notes. Fleetwood can still be manic on the drums and Buckingham can still play a killer guitar.

The Mac played many of their big hits - Dreams, Gypsy, Rhiannon, Second Hand News, Landslide, Say You Love Me, Go Your Own Way, Don't Stop - and reached back to the pre-Buckingham-Nicks days for Oh Well.
