I LOVE Miranda. I think its a topsong. But like you, I prefer the GOS-version.

Amen.
Such an arrangement COULD be the base for a great version including ONLY the rythmsection. Cool.

I think Stevie's parts make the song...jmo

I mean those selections are great. Sisters of the Moon, Blue Letter, and Storms definitely earn their keep but I think that we really got STIFFED on the Say You will Tour. They played the crappiest songs from the album. I think Running Through the Garden, Everybody Finds Out, Thrown Down, Miranda, and Steal Your Heart away need to be done.

"Everybody Finds Out" would be majorly difficult to pull off successfully live. It would have to be totally rearranged. And, RTTG would send me to the "gag bag" in a hurry. (only song on SYW I really dislike)

I just think they should've just come out and played SYW from beginning to end, taken an intermission, then come back & played an hour of hits.

Chili, did you hear them rehearsing it on the Destiny Rules DVD? Its just John, Mick, and Lindsey playing. I thought the intro sounded GREAT. Running Through the Garden is just one of my favorites. I agree with the Say You Will idea. So many great songs I wish were done with Stevie AND Lindsey. Thats why I think we need some songs in there for the next tour because you and I BOTH know that Stevie won't wanna do any.

Nope...don't have it.

I know...

Ok, so here's my "reality check, with just a sprinkle of fantasy" setlist suggestion:

Monday Morning
Dreams
Blue Letter
Rhiannon
Oh Well
Smile At You
I Know I'm Not Wrong

Acoustic set: (I like this idea)
Big Love
Landslide
Red Rover
Illume
Never Going Back Again
Gypsy
Show You How

Back to electric:
Say You Will
Peacekeeper
Thrown Down
Murrow
Everybody Finds Out (ok, if you say it sounded great, let's add it)
Tusk
Stand Back
Go Your Own Way

Encores:
Destiny Rules
The Chain

Don't Stop
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You

It was okay. Very rough. I never want to hear this live. The CD version is just too good. Stevie's voice couldn't handle it all the way through......imo

Put on more votes for:

That's Alright
Angel
SOTM
The Ledge

These are my choices (in no particular order, and depending who tours with them):

-Twisted (quasi Buckingham Nicks song from 1997)
-What's the World Coming To (Lindsey)
-Miranda (Lindsey)
-Affairs Of the Heart (Stevie)
-Gypsy (I love the song but only from Stevie - it's her signature tune)
-Paper Doll (Stevie)
-Welcome To the Room Sara (Stevie)
-Family Man (Lindsey)
-Destiny Rules (Stevie's best on Say You Will)
-Steal Your Heart Away (Lindsey)
-Running Through the Garden (Stevie)

and if they have Bekka filling in for Christine, let's hear the following of Christine's tunes:
-Love Shines
-Do You Know
-Temporary One
-Say You Love Me
-Little Lies
-Hollywood
and Bekka will surely want to sing her own tunes, too, since she's a pretty good writer.

If it's Billy and Rick there, too, let's have:
-In the Back of my mind
-Hard Feelings
-Talking To My Heart
-When the Sun Goes Down
-I Got It In For You
-Desiree (with Stevie)

and if Lola Thomas was to unexpectedly turn up (which I highly doubt, but anyway), let's include some of hers, too, like:
-The Way I Do
-Now I Know (duet with Billy maybe?)
-All That I Was Guilty Of Was Loving You
-Evidence

The outcome might seem like a Fleetwood Mac Family and Friends Tour ;-)

I thought Lindseys guitar sounded great with it. Its really only hard to sing at the end and her voice is MUCH stronger now. Edge of Seventeen, Rock and Roll, and Beauty and the Beast right in a row is very tough and she did that for almost 2 years. I think she can handle EFO.

I wish Fleetwood Mac would add more obscure songs to their setlist, just so I can keep a tally of how many people then complained that the rendition sucked ("listless," "uninspired," "pitchy," "off-key," "avoided the high notes," "needed Christine," "was ruined by all of the additional musicians," etc., etc.) and wasn't nearly as good as the studio version and/or past live versions.
