Say You Will Tour

The Say You Will Tour was a concert tour by the rock band Fleetwood Mac in support of their 2003 album Say You Will. It ran from May 7, 2003, to September 14, 2004, and consisted of over 100 shows in the United States, Canada, Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Australia.

The tour DVD set Live In Boston was filmed at the Fleet Center in Boston on September 23 and 24, 2003. Their 10 December 2003 performance in the UK was attended by Christine McVie, a former member of Fleetwood Mac who left the band in 1998. The tour grossed $69.2 million in 2003 making it the 4th highest grossing US tour of the year. In 2004, it grossed a further $27.7 million from 38 shows and was the 21st highest grossing US tour of that year.

Several touring musicians accompanied the band on stage, including Steve Rinkov, who served as Mick Fleetwoods drum tech. Rinkov was asked to play on a few songs after Fleetwood overheard him playing during a rehearsal. One song on the Say You Will album included two separate drum tracks, so Buckingham suggested that Rinkov cover the second drum part on stage. Rinkov ultimately played additional drums on three songs for each leg of the tour. Buckingham reflected in an interview that the tour was a "triumph" for him and speculated that there was "probably way too much testosterone on stage for Stevie."
