Anyone seen any part of this tour? Any impresions of comments?

I'm seeing them this coming Friday at Nassau Coliseum on LI. Not the best acoustiv venue for a show, but it is the closest to me.

Lucky you, I'm sure it will something to remember.  I don't see Christine in that pic; did she leave the band?  Wouldn't be quite the same without her, but should still promise to be a great show.

Christine left the band right after The Dance tour. She did contribute to the Say You Will album, but didn't tour.

Good show overall. There were a few slow spots with songs that were little known sleepers. The band explained these by saying they wanted to play something that they never played before in concert. OK, I guess.

Lyndsey Buckingham tore up the guitar and put a lot of energy into the show. I still don't know how his hands and fingers survive the torture he puts them through (no pick). They must be one big callus.

Overall I didn't miss Christy so much. Although I like a lot of her songs there was enough material to make this enjoyable.

The band seemed to be having a lot of fun up there. They played 2 long encores.

Definitely worth seeing if you get the chance.

Lyndsey Buckingham is insane on guitar. I think a lot of people don't realize just how good this guy is, until they hear him go off in a live setting.

 I haven't saw them in a few years...but I sure do remember him as an unexpected stand out!
