View Full Version : What Mac stuff DON'T you want your friends to see?

I've been inspired by the "weird Stand Back dancing guy" thread. There's so many Mac things I want my friends/casual fans to see or hear so they know how great the Mac is, like the LIB DVD, or Stevie Live in Concert, or the SYW CD, or Rosebud Rhiannon, etc.
But there are a few thing I DON'T want them to see or hear, for fear they'll think it's bad/stupid/hilarious, etc.
Here's my list:
Stand Back on SNL or Solid Gold (dancing guy is just too ridiculous.) :laugh:
LB giving oral to his mike on the Mirage DVD during Not That Funny :eek:
The song Family Man (it's just begging to be made fun of by the casual listener) :o Actually, let's throw in When I See You Again too (all those "baby's" - I can barely handle it.)
Edge of 17 from Live in Red Rocks (I think the cry at the end would just be too much for them to take!) :nod:
What's on your list?

I took my boss to the Holmdel show back in May and, during the whole way up, I kept having to "prepare" him for Mick's vest solo. Even though it was a good 2 hours into the show, I had to make sure he was ready for it. Of all the great things FM has to offer, especially during that show, afterwards, we agreed that was, by FAR, the low-point of the show. But even the Lindsey solos that a casual fan may think are excessive, impressed my boss. So, overall, I'd have to say the #1 "Mac & Friends No-No" is Mick's drum/vest solo. :eek:

I have stevie pictures up, so i'm a bit embarrassed when people ask for an explanation...but not enough to take them down. For me it's more like i'm embarrassed about when i have my concerts - usually at least a few times a week. And how loud and often i sing the same cheesy (to others) songs. I usually close all my windows. I feel sorry for my downstairs neighbors and possibly my other neighbors who i know can hear very well. I mean, how many times do non-mac fans want to hear SB or Edge, or BC, or SW or SS or SDMHA or Insider, or ..... I usually hope someone doesn't come up my stairs while i'm doing this. :shocked:

Mick's dumb solo is ridiculous, I won't let myself watch it. Especially the one off of "Tango In the NIght" Video.
Whoever said Gyspy off of MIrage tour, that's a good call too. It's not good live. And Stevie's voice is too husky as well on that one. Although I love showing her on SOTM. She blows me away with that satanic scatting.
Then there's "Dancing Alone", the vocal tracks from the Dance w/o back-up. Ouch all three of them sound tired and flat. Thank God for sound engineers and pitch controlled production!

She doesn't sound human on the Red Rocks vid, seriously. Actually, she sounds like one of those forgotten chimpanzees. Awful. But I still love that vid. Her voice is so shot on the uncut RR boot that she sounds like an off-key James Spader.

[QUOTE=darklinensuit]- Mirage SOTM - Not sure they could handle it
- Edge from Red Rocks - Never met anybody who liked the "Singin' it to YA" line
"Singing it to ya" - ya, I always cringe a bit when I hear that. I also am never crazy about when she adds, "I know what it sounds like when doves cry."
But I really like the Sisters if the Moon from Mirage. It's wild. Although it is a good one to pick in this category of things to not want to show your friends. It's a bit weird when she launches off into this sort of "let's pretend I can speak Italian" part at the end of the song. I always wonder if she was trying to say something specific, or she just wished she had something really great to say in that intense mood she was in! It was great emotion - would have been awesome if she did come up with some really cool thing to say/sing at that part instead of Italian mumbling. :lol:
I love Gypsy on the Mirage video. I like her outfit and her hair, and I am a sucker for Gypsy in general. Ya, she looks tired, and her voice was suffering a bit. But I still love it. Call me nuts. It's okay, I won't mind. ;)

I guess the most cringe-worthy moments are pretty much captured by the "Stand Back" video. In addition to the dancing guy:
-Stevie stomping on the conveyor belt;
-Stevie in a ballerina outfit twirling spastically and out-of-rhythm among the "street dancers"
-The "Civil War" version, period.
And some of my other favorites:
-The lame attempt at choreography with the quartet of Chris Nicks, Lori Perry, Stevie, and "that dancing guy" in the "Talk to Me" and "I Can't Wait" videos.
-Christine singing way off-key on "You Make Loving Fun" on the St. Louis 1979 boot.
-Lindsey screeching off-key on "Big Love" on the Buffalo 2003 boot.
-and the following eggs laid by Stevie: "Don't Treat Me Like a Stranger," "Night Gallery," Wazzamattababee, "Annabel Lee," "Mirror Mirror," "What Has Rock 'n' Roll Ever Done for You," "One More Tomorrow," "Old Fashioned," the bossa nova version of "If You Were My Love," "God's Garden," "Desert Angel," the 12-minute master reel version of "Love You Enough," "Love's a Hard Game to Play,"... this could take all day!

Gotta agree with whoever mentioned Lindsey's pseudo-orgasmic howling during a live version of Not That Funny. It's the one part of the 1980 live album that I can't bear to listen to, and I'm infinitely glad that the song has now been removed from their set.
I'd also name certain parts of Tango as low points, namely, WTTR...S, Family Man (I like the music ok, but the lyrics or lack thereof are downright embarrassing) and of course, Whazzamattababee.
And I like Big Love as much as the next person, but I cringe when I hear the grunts, especially toward the end.
As far as recent stuff....Lindsey abusing his guitar doesn't do much for me, especially when he starts swinging it around like some headbanger. And Mick's "vesturbation" act is amusing for about the first minute or so, but it goes on waaaaaaaaaay too long.

Now that's something to be proud of. I think my friends would appreciate the intensity.
I'd be afraid to show the "I Can't Wait Video" even though some of my friends would appreciate the 80's cheesiness of it.
I'd also be a bit apprehensive to show them the Mirage video due to Lindsey's ridiculous outfit, and his hair is a bit too long to be wearing it in that style, but I digress....

Then there's "Dancing Alone", the vocal tracks from the Dance w/o back-up. Ouch all three of them sound tired and flat. Thank God for sound engineers and pitch controlled production!
What is that? Dancing alone? So, ws i right all along all those years ago that the Dance was Lip synced? Are there any Mp3s of this?

Im surprised no one mentioned this one LOL: That short 1981 interview from Stevie's Behind the Music. It looked like some morning interview where Stevie had been up for days on a cocaine binge. She was so trashed. Her hair was permed to a nest. She went on and on about "Jimmy says U have to be strong now Stevie, if you must do this, you are no longer the little egg protected by Fleetwood Mac anymore". Give me a break lol :laugh: ! Its like Stevie was acting like she was the Virgin Mary or something and she was SOOO important to the world.
Who can forget those possibly Wild Heart Rockline interviews. Well it was some radio show. I have a cassette of it somewhere. Well not only is it obvious Stevie is COMPLETELY wasted, she even says something like "why is it 12oclock in the afternoon and im still up" LOL!
My best friend saw Stevie in Birmingham AL in 89. During Edge when she gets down to cackle in the mike she got down all right. She couldn't get back up. The 2 guitar players had to stop playing for a second and lift her back up. Ive talked to many people over the years that saw Stevie fall down and fall off the stage during the Rock A Little Tour LOL :laugh: .

Really? I kind of like that one, i think her hair looks better than average. Because if you look again, you'll see she has a PERFECT stephanie powers/Hart to Hart super-feather....one big swoop back.... :p but i did think she was, uh, exceptionally self serious about what she was saying.

They should've gone on Letterman, IMO. Stevie is VERY talkative and friendly when she's on Letterman (they were married, after all ;) ) and that version of Big Love they did a few years back was chilling. And she REALLY let loose on Rhiannon, too.
I can't tolerate Leno, he's so unfunny and obnoxious.

World Turning - Live in Boston DVD too many 'World Turnings' song sounds dull.
Red Rocks - Where the limo pulls up and Stevie gets out with big glasses on :eek: and looks like Sue Pollard from Hidey Hi (UK comedy about holiday camp/"morning campers") :lol: and then Mick gets out and towers above Stevie. Just makes me cringe. Can imagine Stevie saying "Morning Campers." (love you really Stevie). :nod: :nod: :nod:

Dancing Brad seems to be a hot topic lately. It's suddenly everybody's favorite thing to point out as bad. I don't mind the dance at all - to me the only thing that makes it comical is how he just suddenly runs on and then runs off shortly thereafter, like he's one of the little thingies in Ms. Pac- Man.

ooooohhhhhhhhhhh I agree, he was soooooooooo sexy in the Mirage vid, oozing so much sex appeal, I really love that era of Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey just looks so gorgeous, no wonder Stevie went crazy over him.

I can't believe that!!! That is my favorite performance EVER by her and I think she looks so pretty. Why do you think she looks like a "zombie"?? :shrug: I think she looks pretty peppy - the way she barely makes it out to the mic to start singing. And her white dress....I could go on and on.

She stands pretty still, holding a flower, with hair hanging in her eyes and her eyelids drooping, singing without much oomph. This is not the same woman who raged through The Chain moments before.

I think it was GDW, cause a month or so ago, I rented this video and was watching it (I hadn't seen it) and I'd had a couple, and I remember it was GDW that prompted me to write a review of the fade outs, stevie cheesy camera mugs, etc, that is the wonder of that video. And then I watched the credits and it was all "Stevie's shot director" or something, and I was like :lol: :lol: she has her own director! Anyway, I posted that on Go Your Own Way. It was more detailed, i've forgotten some now - pretty funny though.

Lindsey's woaaahhh ahhhhh wooooohaaaaaas that he screams in 'Not that Funny' always sort of embarased me. I think a good example of this can be seen in the 'Mirage' video but I think he also did it on the 'Live' album?
And of course, the whole vest-solo thing with Mick. Is there ANYONE here who doesn't use that as time for a pee-break? I have some old footage, it must be from 1976 or so, FM is at an outdoor venue- some sort of festival and they are ripping the heck out of 'World Turning', I love Stevie's 30 twirls or so and she didn't even get dizzy! As soon as Mick brings out the conga drum, I stop watching. :laugh:

Great thread, I LOLed.
Lindsey's Not that Funny and Big Love grunts - no way.
Silver Springs from The Dance, it makes me totally uncomfortable to share something that intimate with someone who simply wants to hear casual music.
I don't mind Mick at all, he is crazy and that is good.
Tango in the Nicght - the album sounds so dated, everyone would believe that I'm stuck in the 80s and to be honest - there are far better decades to be stuck in.
