Holy Cr@p! I've got a guitar the same as the one he's playing in the picture. Back in the 90s I rescued mine out of a pile of garbage in front of my apartment building!

I especially like the 5th shot.
I've seen them 4 times, going back to Rubber Factory.
The smaller the venue, the more fun we have together...but isn't that always true?
The only time I ever, personally, heard it played was Way up the River Kwah (Kwai) in Thailand.
I remember it being called a Bell Wheel.

A band like that is lucky to have someone like Mike Campbell join them. They don't get much better, in my opinion. As for Neil Finn, I'm just not familiar enough with his work to make the same statement. Although, if they are smart enough to bring Campbell on board, Finn must be top notch too.
Yes it is. Seen a lot of small venue shows in the past four years w/ my now 18YO daughter. They are the best, she thinks so too.
A Band of Friends, @ the Birchmere, Alexandria VA a couple of weeks ago.

Band of Friends is:
Gerry McAvoy - Bass
Ted McKenna - Drums
Davy Knowles - Guitar and Vocals
Band of Friends w/ another band of friends (my band). These guys couldn't have been more kind and gracious. My guitar player (second from left, next to McAvoy) was over the moon, being a Rory Gallagher fan forever.

Neil Finn is a talented fella and darnn good guitarist as well as vocalist. See Crowded House for his post 80s stuff... I ain't a fan of CH much, but I loved his previous band with older brother Tim, "Split Enz". They did some awesome stuff. I See Red, One Step Ahead, 6 Months in a Leaky Boat and I Hope I Never are some of my favorites. I Got You was their big break thru pop hit. From New Zealand originally, but like all GOOD things from there, Australia is glad to call em ours.
I'm glad he's got the gig, I'm sure it'll help his back balance

Ah yes, thanks for the reminder, remembered the name, and CH, but didn't know he was in Split Enz.......man, I remember I Got You being played all the time here in the states when I was in high school.
You know, it's funny, I have always had mixed feeling about bands with ever changing members. Sometimes I think, please don't, just call it a day. But this really seems to make sense. There is a longstanding relationship between Campbell and Nicks, and they share the common experience with their loss of Tom Petty. Plus, even though he spent his whole musical career in the Heartbreakers, he's contributed to many other things, and is a true musicians musician, always serving the song and band. And of course, if any band has a history of lineup changes, it's Fleetwood Mac.
Just came across this short bit on the new lineup -
