Lorde, a New Zealand singer and songwriter, had a major fangirl moment over the British-American rock band - Fleetwood Mac. Lorde, the youngest solo artist to achieve a US number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 since 1987, posted a "kaleidoscopic" photo on her Instagram account as the rain came down at Fleetwood Mac's first Auckland concert last night.
The 'Royals' hitmaker accompanied the Instagram post with a lengthy message calling the Mt Smart Stadium gig as the best concert of her life.
Lorde who gained two Grammy Awards, ten New Zealand Music Awards and a Brit Award, was among the 38,000 spectators who roughed up for the second to the last night of Fleetwood Mac's 15-month world tour dubbed as - 'On With The Show.'
As a performer, Lorde got all the knowledge about pleasing crowds and enjoying greatly the opportunity to be entertained by a class act.
Lorde stated, "Fleetwood Mac is more energizing than a hundred young bands I've witnessed." "Never before as an audience member has a band given so much to me," "I went to this show in the pouring rain and heavy wind outdoors at mount smart stadium with my parents, my big green raincoat buttoned up to the chin and pulled tight so no one would see me. My ears ached from the cold, and then Mick of Fleetwood Mac started banging that kick at the beginning of The Chain, and I forgot how cold it was."
The set of Fleetwood Mac (the band who has sold more than 100 million records worldwide) spanned more than two-and-a-half hours and every Fleetwood Mac's song was a hit.
The singer went on to describe how each piece of Fleetwood Mac's music had a special place in her heart, and her childhood memories.
Lorde stated, "I held the hands of my parents and screamed the words. Fleetwood Mac were completely musically tight - in particular singer Stevie Nicks's voice was sharp and clear and full."
