Fleetwood Mac At The Verizon Center



I went to the Fleetwood Mac concert last week at the Verizon Center in DC. I try to see them as often as I can because they're getting up there in years. You never know when they might decide that touring is too much to handle.

The sound was better than the last concert at Verizon Center, and when they sang or talked, they were much easier to understand. The show was much the same as the last time (same tour), but there were a few alterations in some of the songs. They did all of the standard Mac tunes, and the place was packed. It was a good show. Sadly, I could never get a good shot of Christine McVie. She was too far away and the lighting washed out the image.

    1. Yeah, it's always fun to see them. I would have liked to have been a little closer, though!

  2. Love your pictures! You got some good ones from where you were sitting. It's nice to be able to see the whole stage, the whole band at the same time, and the screen behind them in the same picture. :-) You caught Lori at a good time too! :-D By the way, the third backup vocalist is Stevvi Alexander. She's so good!

    1. Thanks! And thanks for providing the name of the third backup singer - I couldn't hear it when she was introduced.
