Stevie/Mac fans are the best. We are like a little family, haha. Thanks again FMlex! You're amazing!

-a few songs from Budokan 1977 (Over My Head, YMLF, four versions of Rhiannon, Oh Daddy)
-then randomly at the end of the second disc there's Silver Springs from Germany 1998 lol

Altogether it's like three and a half hours and shows a lot of rare footage.

Is this what you're talking about, Bryson?

i would do damn near anything to get a copy of this. Could I send you a disk or something?? Unfortunatley the only dvd/videos I have of FM/SN are the Dance, Boston and SN HBO show. i have been a longtime fan but never had the opp. to get anything like this.

I have this whole thing too but can't remember any plane scene either!

So you got this off throwndown.net? My friend spent a weekend going through there and she said she couldn't find it. What was the file name? Any info would be appreciated.

I know I offered this awhile back, but unfortunately I'm not doing DVD copying at this point in time.
I was doing them over the summer simply because I had the time and resources.
Now I'm in college and it's not so easy to find blank DVD-Rs, the time to go to mail, etc etc.

I hope someone else can help you out!! I have a month off for the Christmas holidays in December so hopefully I can do some stuff for you guys then because I really do love giving back.

Go to "Search Torrents" --> "Show all of: Fleetwood Mac: Rumours 1977/1978" and the titles of the two compilations are called...

Behind the Scenes (Volume 1)
Behind the Scenes (Volume 2)

I'm goping to try this too. I've been after a copy of all of this stuff for ages. Hopefully I can finally get torrents working. They never have for me before which makes things damn awkward!

samthrax · #25 10-12-2009, 11:06 AM

I usually don't have patience for torrents but for stuff like this I just start the download, go to work and hope for the best. My friend is also currently trying to download it and said that it's only at 45% so unless someone else reseeds it we won't get the whole thing. Again, I don't know how these all work and I'm kind of not really interested in learning. ha ha.

My comp should be currently seeding LB Behind the Music and the Mirage show if anyone is interested.

Have we ever discussed (at any length) what we think this footage was shot for? It seems to be something that the band had done just to internally document its Asian tour. It's very low tech, which is why I doubt it was intended specifically for the record company to use for marketing to the public (although parts of this footage were used in GOING HOME & some other broadcasts).

I always heard it was just something Mick was doing, without anyone else's particular permission or approval. I guess I just thought he was doing it for his own personal use. He knew they were famous and thought it might come in handy to have some day.

It is low tech, with amateur camera angles that fit into this "hand held" world today, but would not have been useful for any formal project back then.
