    Fleetwood Mac have finally confirmed they’ll tour the world in 2013, staring with US dates in April.

    The trek will be accompanied by a new album – but the band haven’t yet decided what they’ll play during the shows.

    Singer Stevie Nicks tells Rolling Stone: “It’s the perfect time to go back out – 2013 is going to be the year of Fleetwood Mac.”

    She adds: “We have two new songs that I cut with Lindsey Buckingham two weeks ago that we might play. We’re pretty proud of what we’ve done. We’re looking at it through the eyes of wisdom now, instead of through the eyes of jealousy, resentment and anger.”

    Buckingham – who recently admitted he’d struggled in the past with balancing his Mac duties with his solo career – hopes the shows will consist of more material from the band’s Tusk era. But he admits he’ll have to discuss it with the rest of the band when they begin rehearsals in February.

    “When you’ve gone through all your must-dos that’s 75% of your setlist,” he says. “I think with the other 25%, there are areas of our catalogue that are under-explored.

    “I’d also like to see an extended middle portion of the show that’s just me and Stevie – this is just me talking from the top of my head.”

    Nicks says Mac hope to perform at festivals across Europe during the summer. “Then we’ll actually tour Europe, which is different than just doing festivals,” she adds. “Then we might do 15 or so shows in Australia.”

    I'm sure full details of this are being announced on Monday. I was listening to 4fm yesterday afternoon and there was an ad for the breakfast show and they said "Tune in on Monday- especially if you're a fleetwood mac fan, for the announcement of one of the biggest gigs of the year"


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 11,371 Mod ✭✭✭✭lordgoat


    If they are having their own announcement on Monday, i don't think it'll be a festival gig.

    Didn't they say that EP will be announced at the end of Feb when tickets go on sale last week?

    Yeah I hope its not a festival gig. Would love to see them play the Aviva or the Royal Kilmainham. Both do gigs in September so are possible venues but maybe the Aviva might be pushing it size wise.

    I'm watching The Dance tonight in celebration of this announcement. Roll on September.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,127 ✭✭✭Linguo


    We're so excited about this, hoping to nab tickets in the pre-sale on Wednesday, they were so good last time can't wait to see them again!

    Now if Muse will just announce they're coming back this summer we'll be over the moon:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 122 ✭✭MrVoracious


    To each their own but I can't see why people are so excited by this!? Theyre nowhere near as good as the Green era of Fleetwood Mac and as per usual mcd have priced it way too high :(

    MCD don't set the final prices, bands do.

    Very likely a second date


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭rednik


    Very few concerts are selling out these days and the price for a good seat at this will more than likely be approx 160eu. They are 137stg in the UK. I paid 126eu in 2009 and that was before the usual charges.
