But everyone seems geared up for it. And Christine's speaking voice sounds healthier than it did a few months ago. I just wish one of the clips featured her singing so we could get a sense of her voice these days.
I love hearing her speak; her voice sounds pretty much same as it always was.

When the first images of her emerged, the spray tan was so heavy, it looked like she was in black face compared to her pasty white band mates. But in this recent clip, it looks a bit more natural.

There was also a commercial for 24 Karat Gold during the CBS Morning News!

Yes, Mick's reaction really warrants comment from me. I was surprised that he was surprised. They had been talking about his management of the band and the way he spent money, the way he ordered limos for the assistants. They had also been talking about the content of his first book and his bankruptcy and the fact that he ended up sleeping in someone's basement was highlighted in that book.

So, when the interviewer concluded that he'd overspent and Mick stammered and blinked at the comment, it struck me as strange, especially since that's not how he usually behaves when discussing this subject.

It seems to me you spend less time posting about the band and more time analyzing what other people post and why.

I was weirded out, too.. How could he possibly not know that's it's basic common knowledge. Or maybe he just finally became embarrassed by all this? Who knows??

Great to see the rehearsals. John is looking good in his colourful shirt.

Loved seeing Mick's pet pig Tilly - she's cute!
You're welcome!

Yeah, that was what got me. It's not as if this hasn't been heavily addressed in the media before. His reaction was a bit puzzling - also because I don't think I've ever seen Mick unwilling to answer a question ever....

Why was the interviewer even going there? Every FM press junket is always the same...I can't watch them any more. Always the drugs, the relationships, the breakups, the Rumours....nothing on the band's longevity, specific songs, their other albums, defining moments, etc.

While I agree that it's tiresome to avid followers of the band... those ARE the defining characteristics of Fleetwood Mac to the general public. they talk about dreams and go your own way, they talk about the reunion in 1997... and the drugs and the relationships and Rumours.

I know. I get a headache after listening to these same interviews over and over again. Someone please come up with some new and interesting questions and comments. I would've liked to known a bit more about Tilly, compared to what was discussed. Mick doesn't like pork, does he?!

Ah yes. Tilly was a revelation. Stevie, write a song about her!

No, I think Mick is saving that for the subject of his next book.
