The rumours are true, the world’s finest tribute to Fleetwood Mac, Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, are returning to Liverpool this June as part of an extensive tour that is sure to have audiences up and down the country wallowing in joyful nostalgia, great music, and having the time of their lives.

Personally endorsed by Fleetwood Mac’s erstwhile drummer and long-term member, Mick Fleetwood, the spirit, the harmony, the sheer exuberance of performance is a vision to behold, and as memorable hits, personal favourites, and a chance to take in the two distinctive eras of the band, the songs that became legendary under Peter Green’s stewardship, and the period of excess and scintillating progression that led to world domination, are thrust upon the crowd’s senses, magic, pure gold dust brilliance sweeps over the night with earnest.
