They had a career retrospective that came out during that tour, so exploring the pre- and post-1975 material was completely appropriate. Lindsey basically did the same thing on his tour.

And, they should get some credit for at least rehearsing and performing those songs. A setlist with Black Magic Woman, Oh Well, Tell Me All The Things You Do, Hypnotized, and All Over Again, as well as Man Of The World on a handful of shows was exactly the kind of set I’d been hoping they’d play for decades. For Fleetwood Mac, it was bold. (That said, I would have done Sentimental Lady over Hypnotized.)

Why do you think didn't they rehearse or play any Behind The Mask songs? I don't get that. Four members of the 2018 lineup were on the full BTM album and Mike was on one song.

It was Lindsey's first nostalgia tour with an accompanying anthology. I wish he did the new tracks live that were on the anthology.

I would rather have had Freedom instead of Storms or Gypsy. I’d love to have heard Mike on it.

They played Freedom all weekend on Deep Tracks.
I think Stevie would rather others take the risk live though. Hence, Chris did the album tracks All Over Again and Isn't It Midnight. Stevie did Black Magic Woman which everyone in the arenas knew.
But even Neil could have sung Rick or Billy songs well.

Could have, but hard pass.

I wish they had played or at least rehearsed ALAYF

If they had sung The Second Time, I would have been the sole audience member clapping in an eerily quiet arena. I’m weird that way. That song slays me.
