I drove 6 hours with my mother to get to this show and I was also nearly 8 months pregnant. We stood in the rain, my feet absolutely killing me but I still watched the show because being there was everything. I've been to a lot of shows over the years - Justin Timberlake, Rihanna and Chris Brown, Dido, Creed, the list goes on... but nothing compares to the show that I saw on this night. This was a real show, a real rock concert. My Mum and I still talk about this show to this day, about the passion of the songs, the chemistry of Stevie and Lindsey, the rain!! Haha!! My mother saw Fleetwood Mac some 32 years ago, fell in love with a particular song and named me after that song and listening to Stevie sing 'Rhiannon' even brought a tear to my eye. This was a real show, something never to be seen again. But it was totally worth the drive and we even drove all the way home again, 6 hours back home with a fully pregnant woman and two chicks on zero sleep... but it was worth it and we'd do it again... PLEASE COME BACK!!

Fantastic Adventure

Thanks so much for a wonderful experience! Didn't know if I was going to make it as
I had accidently put my ticket in a post box instead of a letter and only got it
back Friday arvo. I had never been to New Plymouth before so thanks for that too!
What a beautiful city, sure beats Auckland. Had no where to stay either but felt
like a teenager again(or a gypsy) sleeping in my car by the waterfront. Fantastic
adventure. Can't wait to show my kids New Plymouth. Couldn't swing for tickets for
them even though they love your music too and we play it often on vinyl, as it was
meant to be. Thanks again. Hope to see you again.

We drove for six hours to get to New Plymouth for the first of the two New Zealand concerts. We listened to The Dance and Best of on the way. We went to our seats seven rows from the front, in front of Lindsay. The speakers fed back, the roar went up, and the rain started... but it didnt matter... it was a summer night, one glimpse of Stevie and we forgot the rain. It was magic from the first song. Stevie stroaking the microphone with her long blood red nails... Mick rolling his eyes and waving his sticks... John with that fancy footwork... and Lindsay, with totally amazing guitar licks, demented in Go Insane. The best Ive ever heard him. Yes - it cost as much as a few days in Sydney for John and I but it was worth every cent. Id like to say I could cross a Fleetwood Mac concert off my bucket list, but I cant. Id do it all again in a heartbeat. Please come back to New Zealand Fleetwood Mac - we love you. xxx

Hey guys, a huge thankyou for the amazing concert last night. I have grown up with
your music and had to pinch myself that I was really watching you live. Having had a
challenging 2 years health wise you were simply food for my soul. God bless you all

Fantastic Concert

Fantastic concert. The best concert I have ever been to. Thank you for that
experience. My partner Mike and I met the keyboard computer guy that was with
Fleetwood Mac. We spent maybe half an hour with him on the left hand side of the
stage, discussing our mutual passion for collectable cars. We are very sorry that
we didn't get to thank you for your kindness. It was very much appreciated. Please
feel free to contact us, we would like to return the gesture.

Once again,
Thank you all for one of the best nights of our lives.

Mike and Paula.
