One thing I noticed about Christine...
She has the most terrible memory with dates and details.
1. There was one interview where she forgot that "Got A Hold On Me" was the name of her first single. 2. Save for the LA earthquake, she apparently forgot everything from 1993-1997. It's like she jumped from the inauguration to The Dance in her ITM interviews. 3. At one point, she said that they met Stevie and Lindsey in Mick's house and not in a Mexican restaurant.

That's true, but she seems to be among the worst offenders of them all.
Especially #2 on the list. Others forget specific events (and sometimes not consistently), but Chris takes it to another level and forgets a whole block of time.

Maybe she doesn't like talking about the "Time", era.

Maybe, but I'm sure her memory is very vivid when it comes to people on her 'hit list' (also I realized that time block contained the Bob Welch lawsuit too, but I chalk up that one to her not wanting to talk about it for obvious reasons). Though that doesn't explain why she seemed to have forgotten that Lindsey's solo project led to The Dance and not the inauguration. Not in just one radio interview, but several of them.
Okay I found another one: She said that the final "Dance" tour stop was in Atlantic City when it was in Landover.

I have to say, as much as I can see why fans might be keen to criticise/laugh about the "bad" memories of Mac members, as many of us often do on this board, it doesn't always seem entirely fair. Who among us really has such an unfailing episodic memory of our own lives? I can't even remember loads of stuff that happened last year. Not off the top of my head, anyway. Let alone 30+ years ago. And I never drink or do drugs. Forgetting some things or getting dates wrong by a year or two seems pretty normal and human, to me. I'm actually amazed that they all seem to recount as much as they're able to, to be honest. Although I suppose large chunks of that are rehearsed and repeated many times in interviews. But you know, things like which city the Dance tour stopped in hardly seem like memories that would be likely to stick with her forever. People just don't view their own lives the way that fans view them.

A class mate on FB just asked me if I remembered his 10th Birthday party at the bowling alley. We're 51. I don't remember any party at a bowling alley and I still can't picture HIS face.

I've had similar situations in the past. And I'm 20!

I imagine the repetitiveness of the road and the year-in year-out drudgery of touring may mean one is prone to an impressionistic memory, as opposed to a precise one. |

I'm the same way. Some stuff, I can recall like it was yesterday...but some stuff, I have zero recollection!

But at least it wasn't published/aired for posterity's sake.
Though I love that about our Chris. She's just like us.

Guess my choice of words didn't come across as clear here as it did when I said the same thing on my Twitter.
(Yes I exaggerate stuff for the heck of it quite often)
