If your house was on fire....

[Lala]

...and you only had time to grab one piece of FM related material, what would you grab???

I'd probably go for my Tusk re-issue if I could get to it because of course, Sara would comfort me after my house burnt down. If I was downstairs where my vinyls were I'd probably grab Rumours because...it's Rumours! And it's in pretty nice condition too. It looks better than the copy they used on "The Making of Rumours" DVD :D

[Cristian]

The Dance DVD... and I will manage to get the CD, too. That was the thing that started me on Fleetwood Mac, so I think I'd like to think that I could re-start all over again from the same place. :)


Song of the moment - Man Of The World

[ShangriLaTroubl]

I would grab my LP's... and if I had time my Mac/Stevie t shirts

The tickets I have for September!

[princessblair]

Interestingly enough, my boyfriend and I were returning home to my apartment on Saturday night and saw the fire trucks and cop cars surrounding my building. I freaked out because I thought there was a fire in my building and the thought of my autographed Buckingham Nicks LP and tour book from the Madison show burning because someone can't open a window to cook pizza made me furious! My boyfriend started to freak out because our tickets to the Cedar Falls show were in my apartment...Fortunately, my building wasn't on fire. It turns out that some moron started a fire in the dumpster nearby. So, to get to the point, in case of a fire, I would take my BN LP and tour book (I have them tucked safely away in a bag in my closet). The actual LP was given to me by my dad when I first got into the Mac and holds a lot of meaning to me because of that and the fact that Lindsey signed it in Madison.

[77Rumours77]

I would have to take all my vinyls! Bare Trees, White, Rumours, Tusk, Live 80, Mirage, TITN, Bella, Wild Heart, Rock a lil, TOSOTM.
Nope I can't pic 1 :p

[wondergirl9847]

I'd save my teddy bear I've had since I was 2....then, I would grab my BN album signed by Lindsey and then grab my OOTC signed LP off the wall. LOL

I know you said one, but we are die hard FM fans...come on!! :laugh:

[Hawkeye]

I wouldn't save anything replacable, so even my favorite albums like Tusk could be replaced easil;y, so I'd take something I couldn't replace like the pictures I took of the Buffalo show.

[golddustwoman77]

It would have to be my promo flat signed by all the Rumours line up members, and my BN album and Go Insane album signed by Lindsey. They are stored together for a fast getaway. :p

[estranged4life]

die in the fire trying to decide what the hell to actually save:

"Hmmmm...Do I save my Mac collection or my Beatles' collection? Do I save my prized self-contained burners or my cassette collection? Do I save my Stevie Nicks autograph or my..."

Nuff' said

I'd grab my cats and the teddy bear I've had since I was a baby first, and then I'd try and save my prized tour program collection. I have every Fleetwood Mac program from Rumours 'til now, as well as tons of Blondie, Tom Petty and U2 programs. Then I'd try and get my 45 collection, and then my magazines. My CDs (All 300 or so of them) are all in a wallet, so I'd probably be able to grab those, too. I'm lucky that I keep all of this stuff together. I can't choose just one thing :p.

[Merf]

The tickets I have for September!

Same here! My Atlantic City tickets and my CDs.

But the cats would be saved first.

[Claudia]

Oh man! Let's just hope that doesn't happen. :distress: Because I have no idea what I'd take... Maybe my records that are all toghether in one bag, or my cds that are on a box (well most of them anyway)... or my magazines.

Couldn't this be called "Maybe, if you were thinking, that your room was all on fire..." :lol:

...and you only had time to grab one piece of FM related material, what would you grab???My little Tusk tour pin because it's also very useful for puncturing egg shells before soft-boiling them.

Good one, Amber :xoxo:
Thanks, Amber :xoxo:

Well assuming that my whole family (including my dog and cat) were all out of the house and I had a second to save some some crap, I would take the stuff that wasn't easily replaced, like the pictures I took at the West Palm show, my Stevie collage that I spent two weeks making in art class, and if time allowed my SYW poster which I got custom framed (that shot of Stevie and Lindsey lying down in opposite direction is so beautiful- best Mac cover art ever).

[darklinensuit]

I'd grab my Rooms On Fire single of course. ;)

Actually, I'd probably grab one of my hanging Stevie pics. Photos are always the hardest to replace after a fire. I'd also want some of the CD demos if there were room in my arms.

[littlelies7]

Gee... let's see:

My stuffed animal shark Chelsea

Tango In the Night and Mirage, the LPs that I have displayed in my room, records included.

Tango in the Night and Mirage, the CDs

My iPod

My data disks. I have my inventory lists on it, so...

This list is also for if:

A tornado is in my area
A hurricane is coming in one hour
There is a massive storm coming, freezing all of the North and causing tornadoes in California... and we have to go to Mexico, also in one hour :p

I totally agree--I'd get the cats out first, then my tickets to Camden and Atlantic city, the TISL wool jacket I got on ebay, and the teddy bear with the Stevie Nicks Enchanted t-shirt. The other things I have (t-shirts, posters, etc.) are probably replaceable. There was a fire in my complex a few weeks ago and 2 buildings burned down, so I have thought about this before.

As perhaps the only Ledgie whose house did catch fire (we live in a thatched cottage and the roof caught fire) I'll tell you what we grabbed. NOTHING. Big fat zero. We got the hell out of there as quickly as we could. The firemen brought out family pictures and paintings, but that's all they had time for as they had to concentrate on the fire. The only thing I worried about was the cat, but he turned up safe and well after it was all over. Eight hours, sixty firemen, nine fire engines, four support vehicles (including catering and lighting - it was like a FM tour), the police, the paramedics, victim support and the Red Cross (I kid you not. None of the last three needed, thank goodness) the fire was out. We lost a third of our roof and the sitting room carpet. The firemen moved the rest of our furniture away from the fire and the water. It took us over six months to get straight, but we were just glad we still had a home. The firemen told us it was the first time they'd saved the first floor (second floor to Americans) following a thatch fire! :eek:

However, if I'd really had to think about which FM stuff I'd have saved it would have to be my gatefold Buckingham Nicks LP and, given it might be worth $85 my Rumours N Fax book!

My cdr copy of Record Plant 1974.

I guess that this older thread has been resurrected and I did not see it the first time so I will respond now. I am so disorganized that I really don’t know what I would take. I think that I would take the photos that I took from this past leg of the tour. I made a ton of copies on CDs and I have sets of them already in a couple of my bags. I guess I would grab the photo of Lindsey and myself that I had him sign for me.
Actually I agree with the other posts that said they would grab their concert tickets. Before September I was carrying around my Camden front row ticket just like a little baby. I would take it just about everywhere that I went and if I popped in somewhere I would have someone ‘baby sit” the bag with the ticket in it.
When I went out with a few co-workers one night to Pizzeria Uno I took the ticket and the signed LB photo all in my big bag. My bag took up too much room and my co-workers were not too happy with me. I told them that I could not leave it the car because I had something very valuable in the bag.
I am supposed to go out with them sometime this week and have already been told to leave the luggage at home. LOL I told them don’t worry I don’t have any more tickets in my bag.

[DeeGeMe]

My collection of Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks Tour Books. They're all together so I could grab them and run like hell.

[ontheEdgeof17]

I would definately save my signed picture of Stevie. Everything else I could find again.


-Curtis

[wondergirl9847]

My OOTC and BN signed LPs.

[GateandGarden]

I bet I would be like Brian and die trying to decide. :laugh:

Seriously though, if I had some hard to replace Mac item, such as a signed photo, that'd be what I'd grab, but I don't, so, I'd go for the Tusk re-issue, I suppose. But if I did that, I'd really miss Mystery to Me.

A huge fire was burning,
and my eyes grew strangely bright.
I turned around in my room
What could I take and still survive the fire?

Cuz then again, there's Bella Donna
You know, to Rock a Little
There is a Fire Burnin',
So grab the Soul Drifter

So Cry Wolf, take a little Time, but then stop
That's a piece of trash, a real **** LP, so stop!
She swings around in the vid for Gypsy
Grab that one, you say
And take your Live album, for the Farmer's Daughter

I will...you know
Take them outta the building
I will...you know...as I always have
I Can't Wait... reach with precision
She was going through withdrawl.. not her decision
Well, I've got no more information (or stupid song lyrics) for you!
