25TH SHOW: Fleetwood Mac, Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, California
With a full moon shining over Los Angeles on Saturday evening, Fleetwood Mac performed a highly-anticipated, sold-out concert at the iconic Hollywood Bowl. The unique venue configuration allowed projection images to be displayed differently from previous shows (see images). Many celebrities attended Saturday night’s show, including musicians that Stevie had previously worked with, such as producer and guitarist Dave Stewart, saxophonist Dave Koz, and guitarist Mike Lennon of Venice.
Stevie warmly welcomed the crowd and expressed how great it feel to be back in town. “Welcome, Los Angeles, California! Well, the Hollywood Bowl…just like I pictured. Welcome, everybody! We’re so glad that you’re here tonight. This, of course, is our hometown. We’ve been on the road for about five weeks, and we are so happy just to be home, and so happy to just be with you here tonight. And that being said, I think we should just uh…get this party started!”
Stevie dedicated “Landslide” to the two Daves — In Your Dreams producer Dave Stewart and Sound City: Real to Reel director Dave Grohl; while Lindsey dedicated “Big Love” to his family, wife Kristen and children Will, Leelee, and Stella, all of whom were at tonight’s show.
