After a 16 year hiatus, Christine McVie is back to touring with Fleetwood Mac. Lindsey, Stevie, Mick, John and Christine returned to Quicken Loans Arena for a packed house and brought with them nearly three hours of nonstop classics.
Between hits like “Dreams,” “Don’t Stop” and “Landslide” the members of Fleetwood Mac took turns praising their fellow band members and their fans, Stevie thanking the crowd for putting their wishes into the universe and bringing Christine back to their stage.

“It’s your band – you can come back whenever you want” Stevie recalled telling Christine when she had called her out of the blue to say she wanted to return to Fleetwood Mac. The only condition? She had better get with a trainer, because it may be decades since the group released their debut album, but they still rock as hard as ever.
Cleveland fans were on their feet and rocking along just as hard. They yelled compliments like “you’re still hot!” at Stevie while she twirled and danced, echoed the screams of Mick Fleetwood during his epic drum solos and cheered in disbelief at Lindsey Buckingham who proved why he’s one of the greatest living guitarists over and over again.
The biggest cheers of the night came for Christine, whose standouts like “Little Lies” and “Songbird” have been greatly missed from the Fleetwood Mac set list. See reactions from Cleveland fans on social media below and the full set list from the night immediately after.
