Fleetwood Mac’s current tour is significant. It’s the first time in 16 years that Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, John McVie and Stevie Nicks are performing together regularly, and so far they appear to be having fun.
The time was right for a FMac re-infusion; singer-songwriters and indie rock bands have been mining their sound for a decade or more. And while songs like “Rhiannon” and “Go Your Own Way” never really disappeared from rotation on FM stations, some of the slightly deeper stuff — the 1979 “Tusk” album, for example, or its 1982 follow-up “Mirage” — is worth hauling out of cold-storage.
Fleetwood Mac performed recently at the XL Center in Hartford, and apparently thought highly enough of Connecticut to return promptly. They’ll be at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville this Saturday, Feb. 7, beginning at 8 p.m. Tickets are $125 and up. mohegansun.com.
