Tusk Tour Stories
We were talking about the Rumours tour in another thread about a week ago. I thought it would be cool if people could share their stories from the Tusk Tour. I know we have people here who were lucky enough to see them.
If you went, let us know all you can remember from 30 years ago! When/where did you see them? Did you like the setlist, new songs, was Stevie boring? Was Lindsey's haircut a shock? Did John McVie go crazy? Seriously - please share whatever special moments you can remember. They are all special and it is fun to read them. |

Did you see the tusk tour, viv?
That's too bad, David. Hopefully all the shows you have seen now make up for it. |

I did on November 10,1979. I made a whole thread about the Tusk Tour. You can look it up in our archives. It's titled THE TUSK TOUR: 1979-1980. Read it and weep.

Haha...clearly this traumatic experience made him the obsessive fan he is today. I kid...I'm actually insanely jealous of your attendance of so many shows.

I was 14. I completely fell in love with Tusk. It was june 13th 1980. I saved money for a long time in case they would come over. I had enough for two traintickets to/from Rotterdam, youth-hostel, concertticket but my parents chickened out. They didn't let me go when I tried to convince them to help me get a ticket in the presale.
I never went, and Lindsey never visited The Netherlands for a FM concert since then. Until -hopefully- oct 15 2009.

Jennifer, Mary, Jennifer's mom, & Jennifer's stepdad drove us up to San Francisco to see the gigs at the Cow Palace. We stayed at a Holiday Inn or something like. There was a feral cat -- well, it may have been feral -- outside my window all night, & it smelled like cat urine. It mixed with the cool December air from off the bay. I got headaches in those days.
