The show has now established itself across the world as the “Ultimate Celebration Concert” to Fleetwood Mac.

With an array of styles and a mixture of musical genres, Rumours Of Fleetwood Mac have perfected the legacy of blues, rock and pop classics that made the originals the stand out icons of the music industry that they are today.

Guitarist Alan Hughes, who takes on the “role” of Lindsey Buckingham, said: “It’s a curious thing trying to emulate one of your musical heroes, so to keep this homage together for the last 14 years has occasionally proved quite stressful.

“All the usual suspects must be in the show or people will say ‘why didn’t they play that one?’ ... it’s very tough to decide!

And with a huge back catalogue, there is a lot of songs to choose from.

“For me, I could choose all my favourite Lindsey solo songs from some of his own albums or the more obscure live cuts from concerts, but all said and done perhaps its about performing the classic Lindsey tracks. That is why I love this show. Some of Lindsey’s spirit is starting to creep int0 the show now with the likes of Tusk, Go Insane and Eyes of the World and I relish the opportunity to jump in with my size tens!” he continued.
