Day 326, 26 May 2013, MGM Garden Arena, Las Vegas - FLEETWOOD MAC IN CONCERT!!! These legends are due to perform in Australia in November 2013... but I'm pretty sure we'd need another mortgage to see them then - so that's why it's ticking the box for "Rock Concert" during our year of Not Being Grownups. We were definitely showing signs of life this morning and we stepped onto the 34th floor balcony to sea the moon setting over the desert mountains - incredible sight (see photo album). We spent the day chilling by the pool, napping in the grooviest room we've had in almost 11 months of travel and psyching ourselves up for the show. Just getting to the Arena was quite overwhelming - it's Memorial Day weekend and the crowds of holiday makers are intense - but the insanity is worth it - What can we say? The concert was was incredible. Any fears we had that Stevie Nick's voice might be gone were completely unfounded. It was all their old hits, plus some new material and Lynsey Buckingham appears to have metamorphosed into a stunning lead guitarist - neither of us recall their recordings sounding that astounding. Now take a look at this internet sourced shot from the show... go on have a look - it was Stevie's birthday on the night of the concert. The crowd even sang happy birthday. How many years has she? 65. That's human years people. What are we doing wrong? If you are fans of Fleetwood Mac, sell a child, mortgage a husband or stop eating between now and November - looks like Sydney tickets go on sale in June.
