7TH SHOW: Fleetwood Mac, Air Canada Centre, Toronto, April 16, 2013 (videos)

Fleetwood Mac performed its lucky seventh concert on Tuesday night at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, the band’s first Canadian stop of the tour. Toronto Sun music critic Jane Stevenson was in the crowd to give the play-by-play of the show via Twitter.

“This party starts now!” Stevie exclaimed before launching into “Dreams,” with the crowd cheering in delight. Lindsey Buckingham fueled the excitement by telling the crowd, “Every time we come together it’s different. That’s part of the beauty of this band. There are still chapters to be written.”  By the end of the concert, the band had performed 23 songs in two and a half hours, including the new songs “Sad Angel” and “Without You.”

Stevie dedicated “Landslide” to her “fairy goddaughters,” one of whom appeared in Stevie’s documentary In Your Dreams. Earlier in the week, Stevie promoted her documentary at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) by participating in a pair of Q&A sessions after two sold-out screenings of the film. During the sessions, Stevie teased the audience that she planned to tour solo in 2014, digging deep into her catalog of material to create the set list.

Fleetwood Mac returns stateside on Thursday for what looks to be an emotional night at the TD Garden in Boston, following Monday’s horrific bombing attacks at the Boston Marathon that killed three people and injured more than 180 others. The band is expected to speak briefly about the incident at the concert.

Fleetwood Mac returns to Ontario next Tuesday to perform a show at Scotiabank Place in Ottawa.

“Yes I’m getting older too.” Stevie Nicks, singing at ACC. If she ran for any election at this moment, she’d win by Landslide. #fleetwoodmac
