Original Fleetwood Mac guitarist, Rick Vito, will join Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, the world’s leading Fleetwood Mac tribute show, live on stage at selected shows across the U.K. this autumn
Rick, who first performed with Fleetwood Mac in 1987, and appeared on the legendary Tango in the Night album, will drop in to the RFM musical line-up starting Grimsby on the 29th October and then perform at 15 shows right through to New Brighton on the 22nd Nov.
“It’s going to be tremendous fun” said Rick… “I met the guys last year and we hit it off straight away. They are all great musicians and they really manage to capture the live spirit of Fleetwood Mac. Something which is very important to me. I can’t wait. If it goes well, I’ll aim to be back for more shows in 2016”.
Allan Cosgrove, RFM drummer, says, “Wow! Rick Vito performing live on stage with us. It can’t get any better.”
