Fleetwood Mac performed the first of three sold-out shows at London’s O2 Arena. The band had the nearly 15,000 concert attendees on their feet by the end of the show, as they danced and sang along to the chorus of “Go Your Own Way.”
Stevie dedicated “Landslide” to Jenny Boyd, Mick Fleetwood’s first wife.
The next two shows in London are highly anticipated for the return of former member Christine McVie, who is scheduled to perform with the band during “Don’t Stop.” McVie retired from the band in 1998 for simpler life in Kent, an area southeast of London.

Seeing Fleetwood Mac for the first time. Drives home what an oddly intense band they are without Christine McVie’s leavening influence.
