FM Musical - 'More than just Rumours'

OK, any musical, including 'Mammia Mia', has at least something like 20 songs.

Rumours only has 11 songs, yet they said themusical will be about the Rumours story.

Well, well. We may get some Tusk or Mirage/TITN gems in there! But I guess there will predominately be a prefernce to the 'White Album' tracks of the same era and ilk.

Well if the play is set in '77 then they can obviously only use Rumours and White Album material...but I hope that they use the entire FM catalogue...the whole Tusk album would be so fitting for a play....I can just imagine something like "The Ledge" in a stage performance.

Me too! Add in 'Sara' and 'Walk a Thin Line' !

Given that they may be using a lot of the 1975 album, I really hope 'World Turning' is part of the set.

But the producer (or was it FM's manager?) stressed how it was still early days... Maybe they may make the complete Buckingham Nicks FM story, or a gloss over of the hazy pre-BN era! Who knows?

Some of the live album tracks could be good in a musical. 'one more night" could be a really good song for a musical and would sort of serve as an understanding of christene. Fireflies would be cool to like twords the end of the show to some things up. Also think about it and other stuff that was cut from the Aubum. I say think about it cause Chris was gonna leave the band and stevie wrote the song for her. so yea songs like that could be really cool for a stage production interms of the motives and thoughts of the charectors.
