live concert database?
Is there a site on the web that has listings regarding previous concerts and tours? There is a great site for Yes called Forgotten Yesterdays. There are listings for every tour and show with setlists, photos, and reviews, it has a wealth of information. I am curious as to what songs they played live during the Welch era. Most of the recordings I've heard are 'live in the studio' radio programs, timed at an hour, and I wonder if their actual concerts were more representative of the time. Most of the radio shows tried to cover too much of the entire career span, and not enough of what was new at the time. Did a lot of their then current songs get overshadowed by dragging out Green Manalishi, Oh Well, and Rattlesnake Shake once again? Don't get me wrong, I love those songs. But, I'd much rather hear the writers interpretation of their own songs. Is there such a place with that information?

A basic set (since they didn't at the time stick to playing the same set over & over like they have since Buckingham joined) of theirs during the '74 tour would've been something like: Get Like You Used To Be Green Manalishi Station Man Spare Me A Little Sentimental Lady/Future Games Bermuda Triangle Believe Me Why Angel Black Magic Woman Oh Well Rattlesnake Shake encores: Homeward Bound Hypnotized Other songs I heard them play in '74: Jewel-Eyed Judy I'd Rather Go Blind Bad Loser Come A Little Bit Closer I Loved Another Woman Coming Home (if you'll notice, it is fairly similar to the radio shows, since a Fleetwood Mac set at the time was usually about 70-80 minutes...they weren't consistently headlining their shows then...more often than not they were an opening act or a co-headliner...so, sometimes when they were the opening act, the set would only be an hour; if that.)

It is far from complete, but it seems to have the most info of any site I've seen, so far. (apologies to the Adelson's)

Wow, thanks for the Legacy link. That's the kind of stuff I was looking for. The concert reviews were very interesting. I had forgotten about the band's actual status at the time. They had a lot of stuff going against them, not to mention an audience that really didn't keep up with the band. It wasn't until they achieved mega-star status they could really be who they were at the time, and not what they were in the 60s. I was 15 when the white self titled came out, and I never saw any of the previous versions live.
