Their last album, Say You Will, peaked at Number 3 in the US, and spent two months in the Top 40. Sales debuted at 218,000 copies sold. It debuted in the UK at Number 6 and sales of 34,000. The album since has sold over two million copies across the globe. The album included eighteen songs as well as a deluxe edition bonus disc of an additional four songs. Bob Dylan was one of the contributors on the bonus disc on the song “Love Minus Zero/No Limit”.
Fleetwood Mac was formed in London in 1967. The band is knowingly founded by Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. Along with former member Peter Green. Today the lineup includes Mick Fleetwood on drums, John McVie on bass, Christine McVie on keyboard and accordian, Lindsey Buckingham on guitar and Stevie Nicks fronting the band. Nicks’ voice is powerful and hauntingly beautiful. She is known for fronting Fleetwood Mac and as a soloist. She has over forty Top 50 hits and has sold 140 million albums worldwide on her own. Rolling Stone Magazine named Stevie Nicks one of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time as well as The Reigning Queen of Rock and Roll. She has eight Grammy nominations and has another five Grammy nominations with Fleetwood Mac. Fleetwood Mac with Stevie Nicks released Rumours in 1977, the sixth best selling studio album of all time. The album was Number 1 for thirty-one weeks on U.S. charts and it won Album of the Year in 1978. It had four top 10 singles, including the groups only Number 1 hit, Dreams. Stevie Nicks is prolific. She has herself done sixteen of her own solo tours and an additional eighteen tours if you include the 2014-2015 On With The Show Tour.
On With The Show began in Minneapolis in September of 2014. It involves 104 shows total, including eighty in North America and twenty-four in Europe. It will wrap up in Dublin, Ireland on July 11, 2015. The show itself is lengthy and amazing. The set list involves twenty Fleetwood Mac hits, three in the first encore and one song in the second encore. The tour is a bit earth shattering to Fleetwood Mac fans because keyboardist Christine McVie quit the band in 1998 and rejoined for the tour and new album. The album will be dropping after the tour, making the new and highly anticipated music all that more exciting. The US leg will end with a Los Angeles Fleetwood Mac concert in newly renovated The Forum on April 10th followed by the last night of their tour April 11th and at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

If you havent seen Prince yet, here is a review of the show:
Absolutely everything I had hoped for, and more. Truly a “Funk-fest” of major proportions. I have been a Prince fan since his early days and have seen him perform several times. He continues to be a huge dynamo in a diminutive package. His vitality and vigor are unmatched among performers in his age group — No, make that, of ANY age group. He simply has no peer. Except for having matured gracefully, it is remarkable how he appears to have aged little in the past 30 years. His energy is infectious, and he can still “bust a move” as well as any 16 year-old. The show was exhilarating (“Baby, I’m a Star” & “Let’s Work”) and sensually stimulating (“Beautiful Ones” , “Adore”). Prince hasn’t missed a beat in creating contemporary music (“Guitar”). Yet he pays due homage to hits of the past, both his own (his remix of “Kiss” was funky & inspired) and of those who inspired him (Sly & Family Stone’s “Everyday People” and “I Want to Take You Higher”). Having said all that, it should be mentioned that his skills on his instruments are truly virtuoso.
