I gotta give these folks major credit. They're doing Warm Ways, Caroline, and TITN. Not your standard tribute band and they don't make me wince/cringe like all other FM tributes.

They also do Hold Me
Did you see the other thread discussion about this band? There are countless Rumours bands and Mick gets a cut of their profits and sanctions the bands.

I have always heard fantastic Mac cover bands. I think Tusk is better than any Rumours band I have seen.

Really? Are you saying there are countless Rumours of Fleetwood Mac bands? Really? I thought there was just one. It’s a franchise???

Yes and they are promoted and blessed by Mick which implies he shares in the profit of the bands. There is at least one Rumours band in Europe, a few in the United States, and a cruise ship contract for several of them on Norwegian Cruise line ships.

Hmmmm…..sorry guys. I’m really not convinced by this. I’ve seen Rumours of Fleetwood Mac and really enjoyed their show. It was slick.
I am aware they tour all over the world. Their website has dates in the UK, US and Europe. But none of those dates conflict. I know they have an arrangement with Fleetwood Bac to split their uk touring so neither band are doing uk shows at the same time.
I can only see one website and only one band on that website. I just think they are very active and tour all over. Just one band I really think.

There are multiple bands Rumours. But they distinguish themselves by being called Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, Rumours, tribute to Fleetwood Mac, Rumours, Tribute show. I could go on and on. In addtion there are several Rumours bands on NCL cruise ships right now. Some of these bands go back to the late 1990s. I believe not all of them are blessed by Mick. But I am suspect of that because they all use the official Fleetwood Mac lettering and other things. I dont think broke Mick for a second would not try and profit from the success of these bands. They have one in Ohio, Georgia, etc and they all tour the states. Their websites show all different members. Can you imagine the contract for over a year and hundreds of shows on several cruise ships at once? No way Mick is not profiting from such a deal. Long story short, there are countless bands call Rumours who perform concerts as Fleetwood Mac.

I thought exactly as you a few weeks ago which is why I started that other thread. I assumed there was one Rumours band who probably trademarked the band name. But when the Norwegian Prima debuted it announced Rumours as part of their entertainment lineup. I thought thats cool. Then the Norwegian Viva debuted and also had a Rumours band. Rumours is on other NCL ships too. This is why I started the other thread asking how many of them exist and how they profit the Mick and the band. Cruise line entertainment is HUGE bucks. The cruise line buys the rights to a production Broadway shows how like Hairspray, Beetlejuice, Legally Blonde, etc. Thats huge dollars right there. Then they have to pay the cast and pay for training for the performers. The contract runs several years. Clearly this Rumours contract with NCL is huge and makes money off the likeness of Fleetwood Mac. These bands may not have even existed and someone (the cruise line, or an agent for Fleetwood Mac) went and developed several more Rumours bands to perform on their ships. We will never know how much Mick or the rest of the band got paid. But its impossible for me to believe Mick or agents for the band were not involved in such a lucrative deal. But we all cant help be curious.
