Fleetwood Mac 2015

[Matt42]

Was searching for the fleetwood thread, but couldn't find one... because some how it doesn't exist?

Anyway as you may of seen

http://www.efestivals.co.uk/news/14/140925a.shtml

More to suggest that they are doing it next year, is it fair to say it's very near being a done deal if they've admitted they will be touring in May and will be in the UK around that time frame?

Probably being discussed in the 2015 headliners thread as most have accepted them as 2015 headliners for some time.

[LondonTom]

Didn't look very far did you? (and there is defo an actual Fleetwood Mac thread around somewhere )

Is that a new quote or a re-hash of this one?

Prove there is one then

I searched about 30 pages, and some of these pages were topics from way before this years fest.

every other headliner has their own thread, I guess a fleetwood one would pop up soon anyway

[guypjfreak]

well you cant place a bet on them thats for sure .............................i dont bet btw

[Muppetmark]

So who should play against them

[Purple aki squat]

I've never seen them and not their biggest fan. I can't help thinking it might be a bit boring.

If anyone has seen them then what's your opinion. It does seem mad that I'm not arsed in the slightest if they play.

I saw them at the O2 this time last year and despite having seats in the gods of that souless hell hole i loved the show they put on. Still very good musically and no shame in smashing out most of there hits, would work very well on the pyramid i think.

As Dental Plan said, mainly discussed in the Headliners thread but a quick search threw up....

My brother went to see them last year with his wife, she's a massive fan, him not so much. He said they were unbelievable live and up there with some of the best live performances he'd ever seen

[grumpyhack]

They'll only do it if they know they will do it well. So if they go for it I reckon it will stand alongside The Stones as one of the great Glasto performances.

any stupid rap artist so all the kids will fuck off lol

[Winslow Leach]

great idea

I saw FM a year ago and they were phenomenal. Sounded great...they really are faultless live. I did not want the gig to end. Was gutted that they wernt headlining last year, and have been waiting for them to headline for a long time.

Will be the perfect setting and the perfect gig at Glasto. Cant wait....just gotta secure tickets now

If they end up doing a UK tour next year, ill get tickets again.

[robertadams1]

i have £25 on them at 14/1 to headline on the sunday with will hill - put on during this years glasto (june 25th). was a free bet too as got £26 quidco!

[suzie sue]

Is it likely to be Sunday? I would have thought Saturday

[eFestivals]

as far as i'm aware, Fleetwood Mac were pencilled in for the Friday for 2014, and I suspect that'll be the plan for next year too.

[STEVEYBOY]

Fingers crossed they will play. One on my wish list and I think very realistic chance of them playing next year

[russycarps]

It amazes me how fleetwood mac are seemingly flavour of the month these days. If you confessed to being a fan years ago you would have been laughed out of town.

Do people getting excited about them actually know that much about them? Or have they just climbed aboard the hype train.

The eagles were mocked this time last year for being dull and middle of the road. Yet fleetwood mac are lauded. It's madness.

What I'm trying to say is: they're shit.

Somewhen the best part of ten years ago now, I got word thru one of my data-hounds - who'd just spoken to one of FM (I forget which now) - that they'd be playing Glastonbury that year, so I added it as a TBC.

At some point not so long after that I happened to be chatting with Michael Eavis, and he told me that Fleetwood Mac weren't booked and said "no one cares about them now".

(I presume that me hearing that they were booked was a the result of a manager saying to that band member that he'd get Glastonbury sorted for them).

The revival of interest in them seems to have come about because of Glee.

Yep absolutely. Musical interests take a backseat to ticking boxes at festivals now.

Yeah - people only liking Fleetwood Mac to be trendy, just slaves to the hype of 1977's hottest band....

It's fucking Simon Cowell's fault. Sheep.
