The Fleetwood Mac Tour was a concert tour promoting the band's lineup of Lindsey Buckingham on guitar and vocals and Stevie Nicks on vocals. [1] The band initially conducted a series of performances beginning in May 1975 to familiarize the public with the new lineup, with their first occurring in El Paso, Texas. [2] The band's record company had some reservations about the decision to tour without an accompanying album, which was not due for release until July 1975. [1] The setlist comprised a mixture of songs from the upcoming album and material predating the tenure of Buckingham and Nicks, including "Oh Well" and "Station Man". [2] [3]

Contents

After the conclusion of their initial tour, which ended in June, the band took a break from touring to finish their tenth album, which was released under the name Fleetwood Mac in July 1975. Once the album was completed, the band booked a lengthier tour for the remainder of 1975. [3]
