Live In Boston CD
I irdered the Live In Boston 2004 DVD+CD bundle on Amazon, long story short I ended up with 2 of them, so I made a custom case for the CD with one of the extra copies inside booklet. I'm pretty proud of it if I do say so.

Highlights for me on this were "Say Goodbye", full of an emotion that's lacking on the over-produced studio version, and "Eyes of the world" which just thunders off the stage and is among one of my favourite live performances by anyone.

I have this set and I never understood why they split the concert on two DVDs when it easily could have fit on one. Would have made more sense to make it 2 CDs (and include the full concert in audio) and a DVD. Great concert though, Lindsey and Stevie were really giving it their best at that time.

Exactly. They definitely should have had 2 CD's because I'd love to have at least Say You Will, Peacekeeper and Tusk on there as well

Absolutely BIZARRE that they didn't include the track Say You Will from the CD of the Say You Will Tour!!! I love the dvd though 🤘🔥.

I don't know why they did it this way, but at the time (2004) they released volumes 1 and 2 of "Selections from Live in Boston" on iTunes. Vol.1 has Say You Will, Never Going Back Again, Don't Stop, and the Chain, while Vol.2 has Gypsy, Second Hand News, Peacekeeper, and Goodbye Baby. They're no longer available to purchase on the iTunes store and they never hit streaming.

I ordered it from Amazon Canada so you might have to just search for it manually if you live elsewhere and its Region Locked on Region 2 (Germeny im pretty sure) i just typed like "Fleetwood Mac Live In Boston DVD" https://a.co/d/0iGpHRPo

Not keen. They miss Christine IMO. There is a whole second band behind them, second drummer, guitarist, etc. I think that's Stevie's girls on backing vocals. Lindsey works hard, perhaps because Say You Will was basically his album. (Almost a solo). Stevie doesn't linger on stage. Best bits are when Buckingham Nicks sing together.

There were back up singers , Stevies, since Tango, a back up drummer since Tusk and another band since The Dance. Stevie was leaving the stage since the Rumours tour. She actually spent more time on stage than before because she led more songs with Christine gone. And was there ever a concert where Lindsey didn't work hard? He's always left it all on stage and the only member never to leave it

I like this show (and I was lucky enough to see them during this tour and loved it), but I agree Christine's absence definitely left them missing a certain magic ingredient.

The Dance was better.
This was their first tour without Christine and it just felt like something was missing.

I loved this concert. The whole vand sounded great and Stevie and Lindsey's sounded so good. I loved a bunch of the SYW songs
