"On With The Show" must be released!

Andy Man · #1 02-17-2015, 11:47 AM

Having seen the band in Toronto a couple of weeks ago, and watching countless clips on YouTube, I believe that this tour must be recorded for a film/audio release.

The band has never sounded better. An official "On With The Show" release would blow "The Dance" far away. I can guarantee that a double live album, even if only released on iTunes, would sell as so many would appreciate a live recording from this tour. A visual release, with say a documentary on this tour, would also allow this moment in time to be remembered long after the band is done touring.

Please, if anyone has contacts with Warners or Live Nation, please let them know that FM fans would so like something official from this tour. If you get the chance to meet Mick before the show, bring it up!

I'm very surprised they haven't filmed it by now. Not sure if it will happen at this point. Didn't they film Live in Boston only a few months into the tour?

chances are we will never see it because warner brothers could choose to re-release all their classic videos and live concerts much like other bands are doing such as rush but sadly it's just very disrespectful how the record company treats such an iconic band and their history.

At the M&G in San Diego, I asked Mick if they had plans to release a video of the show and he said that it would almost be a criminal offense if they didn't since Christine is back in the band. It sounded like they are planning to record it and release it, but that he'd like it to be in a beautiful setting such as Italy. Let's hope they really follow through and that it's not just talk.

There was one point in Rosemont where Lindsey was speaking (BL intro maybe?) and said "Hi Joe. Joe's here." No clue who Joe is, but Stevie later mentioned someone named Joe taking pictures of them or filming them. Same Joe perhaps?

Why would we want to see the exact same show as the Dance? They sound great but some of the vocals? Christine can no longer hit the high notes on You Make loving fun, Lindsey's voice is rough at times etc... What they should release is a freaking new studio album. We have seen and heard these live songs done to death.

I wouldn't mind it if it had backstage footage.. a docu attached.. extras... etc...

YES .I agree.I would love to see this tour pro filmed.

Some of the in house video screen footage looks good and I dont see why they could use it.

It could be from the last dates of the states tour or from some of the shows across the big icy pond.

One issue with this video which all of us wont like is they have to axe some tunes out to fit the time limits.

More likely it probably run on PBS here in the states like their other shows were.

As someone who couldn't afford to go see them this year and will probably be the only time it happens, I just want a crystal clear, DVD-ready audio of Lindsey performing on Seven Wonders and Little Lies live. The youtube videos with all the talking/extra crowd noise just ain't cutting it.

The Isle of Wight Festival performance will definitely be filmed.

He's the man who filmed and directed one of Stevie's more recent DVD of a live show.

My bet is they will record DVD over the six nights at the London O2...'Live from London'....the most successful concert venue in the world today with a band 3 parts British and the return of the true Brit Christine McVie ...no brainer me thinks?

My thoughts exactly. "Fleetwood Mac Live At The O2" would be an epic concert film.

As for the comments of it being the same as The Dance, I disagree. The Dance was an in-studio, highly rehearsed performance. Filming an arena show it totally different. Fleetwood Mac does not come out as the full-on rock band that they are on "The Dance" due to the setting. Filming an arena show would create a fantastic memento of not only this fantastic tour, but also serve as a clear example for the public as to who Fleetwood Mac really is as a live band.
