Tribute to Fleetwood Mac
SYDNEY band Running in the Shadows of Fleetwood Mac is coming back to BAR36 at the Reef Hotel Casino to give Cairns’ fans the ultimate Fleetwood Mac experience this March.
For the seventh year, the acclaimed cover band returns to the casino on March 8 and 9 from 9pm for two unforgettable shows going through the band’s early blues years, to the Rumours era, Tango in the Night and even some of Stevie Nicks solo material.
Vocalist and keyboardist Gary Stewart said the band was always eager to return to Cairns.
“It’s always exciting to go back to Cairns, we love it up there. We’ve been visiting now for the last six to seven years and it’s one of the best crowds to play for,” he said.
“We’re bringing a 2.5 hour show with all the hits starting from the early Peter Green era in the mid 60s, to the songs playing on the radio today, the Rumours album, a lot of Stevie Nicks solo career and we just bring the high energy and performance.
“We keep coming back because this is one of the best crowds, they keep showing up, they know all the songs, they sing and dance and we can’t wait.”
Ranging from amazing hits like Go Your Own Way, The Chain, Everywhere, Dreams, Tusk and Big Love, the six-piece rock band will keep fans on their feet with their on-stage chemistry and fun antics.
“One of the highlights of the show is probably our drummer, he’s very entertaining, we never know when he’s going to show up and what he’s going to do on the night, quite unpredictable so he’s always a stand out,” Mr Stewart said.
“But the best it’s always the crowd participation, when we get the crowd involved that’s always memorable for us.”
Mr Stewart invited people to join them once again for a great night of live music.
“If you like live music come and see what a great performance this is. I’m sure most people will know at least a couple of songs, these are songs that people grew up with,” he said.
“We’ll offer you a live version so it’s a bit different than what you expect. One of my favourites to play is Rhiannon and Don’t Stop, and it’s also free so come down and party with us.”
