On with the Show tour
 
How come no professionally shot concert film from the 2014-2015 On With the Show tour has ever been released? Or at least live CD? Mick has said they record the audio of every show on multi track, so it’s not like this wouldn’t be possible. But did the band even film any shows? I would have thought Christine’s return would have given them the impetus to do this.


Any ideas why this hasn’t happened?

They’ve released nothing since the Live in Boston in 2004. My thought was you probably would’ve gotten something from 2014-15 but once they fired Lindsey and moved on with whatever that was in 2018-19, they weren’t going to go out with another LB fronted show cementing the Rumours 5 as THE lineup.

I doubt Stevie would sign off on it now although at some point if he could, I’m sure Mick would to make a buck.

“whatever that was in 2018-2019”—exactly! We know what it wasn’t. It wasn’t FM. And it wasn’t good.

I've been saying it for 15 years, but...

Stevie Nicks RUINED Fleetwood Mac.

My words still ring true.

I asked Mick this exact question on a meet n' greet and his reply was... "The content is on YouTube so we are not planning to release anything official", or words to that effect, it was back in 2014

My speculation is they definitely would have filmed a final tour while promoting their new and final album in 2018.
I think the band knew it would be their swan song and final act. They were right. It was their swan song but not what they envisioned. No album and not all the members

I like this guess. But, I doubt they were that savvy!!!

Would be great to have Behind the scenes DVD package of that whole tour. What a missed opportunity.

The logic I see behind those words is that since there are lot of clips in YouTube, a video for sale wouldn't be a worthwhile commercial success.

They just didn't know how to market.

The Buckingham McVie tour would have also made a pretty good . . . whatever . . . show on cable or Blu-ray.

The Nicks show that was released in theaters — was that ever Blu-rayed? Can you buy it?

Was the Peter Green tribute ever Blu-rayed?

Was Live in Boston ever DVDd?

These guys don’t do a lot of home media, even though those two Blu-rays of Lindsey solo concerts are two of the best things we have. Those are really excellent on all levels — no flash, just substance. Stevie’s theater film looked like just the opposite — all flash, no substance. Her craft is marketing.

You mean this? It was pretty good quality.

With Irving in charge, they have NO excuse. The Eagles put out Farewell 1 double DVD set, and History of the Eagles. Both of which I've watched 100 times.

I just tried to watch this again recently and something about this DVD is so unsatisfying. I couldn't finish watching it. I saw the SYW tour twice and really enjoyed it, but this DVD doesn't represent what I saw at the concerts. At least Lindsey does have a couple rocking new songs.

I don't understand how/why it had to be on two DVDs. It may seem like a minor thing but it just made the whole thing so cheap to me.
