Smeble Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Well my thoughts are that I’m glad I saw them with Lindsey Buckingham, as for G headliners they would be fantastic, although without LB they will lose that bit of bite you get between him and Stevie nicks with the songs they wrote about each other. on the plus side you would get a few crowded house numbers thrown into the set.

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 They've said that it was L-Bux that was preventing them doing blues years material so they'll be breaking out Oh Well, Man of the World and the likes. So it's gonna be Gammon Mac Glasto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex DeLarge Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 The Mac would go down an absolute storm, seem to also be popular among the yoof as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, was surprised how many yoofs were singing along to the old hits at the O2 last time around. Think they would be a popular headliner, with a genuine sense of it being ‘an event’ (albeit not in the Stones league), although marred for me with it no longer being an authentic Mac line up.

Yeah, I'm 20 and everyone my age seems to love Dreams, Little Lies, Oh Well, The Chain, Everywhere, Go Your Own Way and all that stuff, more so than a lot of other classic rock bands to be fair. Agreed about it being annoying there not being the complete Mac lineup, but hopefully that won't matter at the end of the day. As others have said here they may play a couple of tracks that Lindsey stopped them from playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their tour though, it's strange how many acts seem to finish a tour on Philly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomViolence Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 I told myself I wouldn't fall into the trap of believing they would accept the fee Glastonbury HQ would be prepared to pay again... but it's more fun this way. 2019 IS THEIR YEAR!

Tho I suspect Lindsey might be back with the band before that USA tour finishes. His 'sacking' was a scheduling issue rather than a fall-out.

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 I think that's exactly the same thing that happened last time they toured without him - they wanted to tour and he couldn't face it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindsey didn't want to start rehearsals in June, and suggested November instead. The rest of the band wanted to get on with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, you can't blame them really. They might have died of old age by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardy Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 I can think of nobody less interesting and enthusing than FM headlining. Bunch of money-grabbing hasbeens. Get out of here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of loads of people i find less enthusing - Stone Roses, Muse, Arctic bloody Monkeys... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Actual prophecies in the Book of Revelations that signal the Second Coming of Christ and the End of Days. - Global earthquakes - Catastrophic crop failures - The Sixth Trumpet War - @Mardy at the barrier in the pit, tears streaming down his face, singing Christine McVies bit in "Don't Stop".
