3RD SHOW: Fleetwood Mac takes Manhattan (videos)

Fleetwood Mac performed in concert at legendary Madison Square Garden in midtown Manhattan, New York City, on Monday night, the third stop of the 2013 tour. With expectations set high for the eclectic metropolitan crowd, the band kept the set list diverse and intact, treating New Yorkers to 23 songs of Mac classics, catalog favorites, and new material.

Though just three shows into the North American leg of the tour, the fab four have quickly settled into their signature roles and commanded the stage with nuance and charm to the sheer delight of the crowd. Stevie gave some of her finest performances of the tour so far, with impressive vocals runs during “Gypsy” and “Silver Springs.”  Lindsey matched her with mind-blowing guitar solos during “Big Love” and “I’m So Afraid” that earned standing ovations from the crowd.

Thanks to the massive projection screen behind the stage, fans could clearly see the band in action from anywhere in the arena and to take impressive concert photos, as shown in the above gallery. Godzilla-sized projections of Stevie and Lindsey only seemed to fitting, given their rock-god status.

But the band was humble and gracious to the thousands of fans who came, thanking them for their continued support. Stevie also took a moment to acknowledge the Fleetwood Mac management team for organizing the 2013 tour, dedicating “Landslide” to longtime managers Howard Kaufman/Sheryl Louis (Stevie Nicks), Irving Azoff (Lindsey Buckingham), and Carl Stubner (Mick Fleetwood).

Fleetwood Mac heads to nation’s capital next for a Tuesday night concert at Verizon Center. Tickets are still available through Ticketmaster.
