Fleetwood Mac Belfast date no rumour

Rock giants, Fleetwood Mac are coming to Northern Ireland, it was announced today.

Wonderland Promotions confirmed that the Anglo-American supergroup will play Belfast's Odyssey Arena on December 8.

The band, most famous for multi-platinum album Rumours which is believed to have sold between 30 and 40 million albums worldwide, will play Belfast as part of a world tour which is currently taking in the United States and Canada.

It is the first time in over six years that the original Rumours line-up has toured together. However, Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Lindsey Buckingham will arrive without co-vocalist Christine Mcvie who decided not to join the band for their current tour.

While tickets for this fully-seated concert are pretty steep ranging from £60, £49 and £38, fans are likely to get their money's worth witnessing such classics as Tell Me Lies, Go Your Own Way, Tusk, Gypsy, Don’t Stop and Dreams.
