Christine Photos Through the Decades

[NicksIllume]

Time to share photos! For organization, let's go by decades. I'll begin with a photo from the 60s when she was still perfect. :lol:

[jwd]

Now that's something I'd pay to see. Christine playing badmitton, in what appears to be Stevie-esque boots, after she's made a trip to the liquor store. :laugh:

[takenbythesky]

Wow, thanks so much for posting all of those photos, Erica! They brightened up my day! Add me to the list of people whom Miss McVie usually has that affect on! :)

She was still perfect, of course, but she was also already 'McVie' when that was taken. :) I think that was 1970, at Kiln House?

Wish i had new ones, all my favorites I think i stuck in my j/c story....

Actually here's one from the late 60's; hopefully this will work...

-Lis

[ThePenguin]

Hey i think I am getting the knack of this LOL. Here's 3 more. Sorry the quality is not the greatest; i have to get to bed!

I think all 3 were 1969. Last one is funny; that's the way she mainly saw John in 1968-69-- up on the wall LOL. :D

-Lis

[macfan 57]

Thanks for posting those pictures. :) I've never seen that picture of Chris looking at John's picture before, Lis. By the way, I think that may be a tennis racket, not a badminton racket in that first picture.

[NicksIllume]

I don't have too many pictures from the 60s.

[GateandGarden]

This is so cool! I've never seen any of this pics before! :)

Hillary

[NicksIllume]

Excuse me if these are not all from the 60s...some are from the early 70s, maybe? Anyway, it's Christine...

[ThePenguin]

I'm in the early 70's now....digging up whatever I can find...

OK here are 4 of Chris, and the last one is of John simply because he was *such* a hottie, he was smokin'. ;) (I think that was around 1966.)

-Lis

[NicksIllume]

The smoldering McVie set. At least, that's what I like to call 'em.

I bought a set of those pics (of the whole 1974 band) and the negatives from Ebay!! LOVE those pictures; Chris is truly so gorgeous. I should look so good with a 'schmata' (isn't that the right yiddish word??) on my head....

I keep meaning to buy a cool frame to display that set of 5 pictures we got.

Oh BTW we sent a set to Bob Welch; he said they were taken after the bogus band craziness, and thought they were taken at some Warner Bros office.

Not everyone can pull off the fortune teller look like she can. I have the most trouble trying to find the perfect frame. Here are two more...love the hair and belt. :laugh:

[macfan 57]

NicksIllume, I was just ready to try to post those last 2 pictures from 1972. I LOVE those two. I'm going to see if I can get this to work. I've never tried this before. I'm just testing here.

I love those pictures also, her shaggy-mop-hairdo is too cute. Why do i have the feeling she and John were cutting their own hair back in those days?? :laugh: bad haircuts are funny.

-Lis

[ThePenguin]

Just found one more.....

-Lis

[GateandGarden]

She was SOOOOOO skinny during the late 60s early 70s...and after that, too.

Hillary

[macfan 57]

Now that I know how to do this, here's another one. I think this is from the 1973 Midnight Special TV show.

[NicksIllume]

Now that I know how to do this, here's another one. I think this is from the 1973 Midnight Special TV show.

I love that one!

[macfan 57]

Here's a few more. The first one is the from the Kiln House tour, the second one with John from sometime in the early 1970's.

[ThePenguin]

NicksIllume, that 1st one in your last batch is from that clip of them in the diner, right? *groan* I would kill for all the old footage that just languishes in storage somewhere. I'd imagine John has tons of it since he was sort of the camera guy back then.

But anyway it's neat seeing some of these 'rarer' pictures.

Those are screen caps from Mick's Bravo Profile...that's where I got those. I couldn't imagine seeing all of the old footage especially Japan Rumours.

[David]

I don't have too many pictures from the 60s.
That's her Melody Maker Award acceptance! Have you seen the little video snippet of that? Tiff or somebody should post that.

[jbrownsjr]

you guys are killing me

i have seen some of these, but not in a long time

it's making me miss her a lot

[NicksIllume]

I miss her too, but our hearts will rise up with the morning sun.

[jbrownsjr]

I'm still waiting for the hurt I feel to simply melt away.... :(


and once again, thanks a lot illume!

[macfan 57]

There's a video clip of her accepting that award? I'd love to see that. I've only seen the still pictures.

She looks so cute in those two!

[NicksIllume]

I believe the ring graces the presence of one or two pictures in this batch.

[GypsySorcerer]

Thanks Erica (and everyone) for posting all the Chris pics. I know many disagree, but I think Chris is an attractive woman. :nod:

[macfan 57]

I got some more. This one is an earlier 1970's picture of John & Chris.

[macfan 57]

And now, more from 1975-1977. The last picture is Chris with a cigar & Bob Welch.

[NicksIllume]

And now, more from 1975-1977. The last picture is Chris with a cigar & Bob Welch.

The infamous cigar! I lost that picture two summers ago when my laptop first crashed and have never been able to find it until now. You've made my day!

[NicksIllume]

Thanks Erica (and everyone) for posting all the Chris pics. I know many disagree, but I think Chris is an attractive woman. :nod:

Quite welcome. I've been told by several that I could pass for her daughter. At first, I wasn't quite sure how to take that, but it's a great compliment to me now.

[macfan 57]

Quite welcome. I've been told by several that I could pass for her daughter. At first, I wasn't quite sure how to take that, but it's a great compliment to me now.

I'd definitely take that as a compliment. Christine McVie is a beautiful lady, in my opinion. :)

[macfan 57]

I think Lis put the first one in the Chris/John story. But, it's just too good a picture not to add to this thread. Of course, this is from her Christine Perfect days in the 1960's. I've never ever seen the second picture, also from her Christine Perfect days.

[macfan 57]

Now, back to the 1970's.

[ThePenguin]

So sexy in that 2nd shot w/ that 'open' v neck shirt.

A shirt like that on me would NOT be pretty. :lol:

-Lis

[GateandGarden]

Hillary

[jbrownsjr]

I'd definitely take that as a compliment. Christine McVie is a beautiful lady, in my opinion. :)

ditto! .

[HomerMcvie]

Great pics! She's beautiful. And there's no greater aphrodisiac than talent! :xoxo:

[NicksIllume]

She's a talented, beautiful lady.

[macfan 57]

I LOVE that one with her puppy! Now here are some more. These are from the Tusk era. The last one is one of the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen of Christine.

[NicksIllume]

I cannot wait to get to the 80s!

[jbrownsjr]

someone post the following pics if you have them


Chris playing drums, (she goes up front stage next to stevie and plays percussion) kind of like when she goes up for "oh well" or "everywhere" and they have a drum in front of her) i've seen this only once

i also like an older one where she's sitting at the Hammond Organ



u guys have made my day everyday this week so far, i look at these pics and go "ahhhhhhhh yes i remember that one", "ooooooooooo i love that pic" etc etc.

[ThePenguin]

The 'backstage attack' always gives me a chuckle. Wonder what made him suddenly want to bite her neck LOL. Oh well, she played along quite willingly. :D

When was that "backstage attack"? I've never seen that picture before.

[macfan 57]

Here are some more Rumours/Tusk pictures. The last two are with Dennis Wilson.

Was this during Oh Well? I was thinking it was during World Turning?......and I even saw it! Sooooo long ago....
:distress:
Am I the only one that thinks Dennis Wilson's as ugly as homemade sin? Maybe it's just that hippie beard! :lol:

[ThePenguin]

I think he had a certain rugged appeal. I can see what she saw in him. Plus I'm sure the musical common ground was a cool draw.....

-Lis

Chris played the drums on Second Hand News on the Rumours tour.

[HomerMcvie]

Chris played the drums on Second Hand News on the Rumours tour.
My virgin tour was the Tusk tour. I pretty sure I remember the drum from then, too. Or,....... maybe I've seen all these pics for years, and THINK I'm remembering it. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Alzheimer's should prove a pleasure. :rolleyes:

[ThePenguin]

When was that "backstage attack"? I've never seen that picture before.

That's on the 'All Access' special that aired on VH1, I think?? Plus it's maybe in some footage from Mick's DVD of the backstage/Rumours time.....


-Lis

[NicksIllume]

A girl goes out for a night and look at what I've missed. :laugh: Lis is right about the backstage attack. I'm jealous. I wish I could have seen them back in the day, but I wasn't thought about! Dennis had a rakish style. I'll stop knocking off lyrics. Like she said...

[macfan 57]

I think he had a certain rugged appeal. I can see what she saw in him.

-Lis

Yeah, me too. I think in some pictures Dennis looks fantastic! On the other hand, I've seen other pictures where he looks horrible. I find him very attractive in that People Magazine picture I posted. I wonder if she was referring to Dennis when she wrote about "that rakish style". :D

[macfan 57]

We've seen a picture of Chris playing the drums, now here are a few pictures of Chris playing the guitar. These are from those Tusk rehearsals.

[NicksIllume]

Love those!

These are from 6/9/1980.

[NicksIllume]

These are still from 6/9/1980.

[Aisling]

thanks to everyone who's posted pictures. this thread has really perked up my work week. :wavey:

[Les]

Mary Anne already posted my favorite from the Tusk photoshoot (back in post #45, "christine22.jpg"), but I've always really liked Christine's pictures from that particular shoot. Here's a couple more from the same shoot.

[NicksIllume]

I've always really liked Christine's pictures from that particular shoot.

I love Tusk era Christine...so beautiful.

[macfan 57]

I think this might be from the Tusk tour as well.

[NicksIllume]

I think this might be from the Tusk tour as well.

That looks like Mirage to me...the eye make-up and jacket.

[David]

Was this during Oh Well? I was thinking it was during World Turning?......and I even saw it! Second Hand News -- that shot is from Orchard Park 1978 tour

[macfan 57]

That looks like Mirage to me...the eye make-up and jacket.

You're probably right. I thought it might be end of Tusk or Mirage. Here are some pictures from the Mirage live video. The last one is John & Chris from the Gypsy video.

[NicksIllume]

*sigh* That last picture...

[Les]

Christine at home, 1984.

[dougl]

Chris at Studio 54 w/Cheryl Tiegs and Mick and??

[NicksIllume]

Chris at Studio 54 w/Cheryl Tiegs and Mick and??

I have never seen that before! That top! :shocked:

The first two are with Quintela, and the last two are some of my favourites.

[macfan 57]

I love that third one, darkmcvie. Here are some more from the 1980's. The first one is probably from that same photo shoot. The second one is another one with Eddy. The last one is one of my favorites.

[macfan 57]

This is one of the sexiest pictures I've ever seen of Christine. If anyone has a better quality picture, please post it. I have the Bam Magazine cover with the original picture & this one doesn't do it justice.

[macfan 57]

Chris at Studio 54 w/Cheryl Tiegs and Mick and??

I think the other man in the picture is Peter Beard who did the Tusk album artwork. I believe he was married to Cheryl Tiegs at the time.

[NicksIllume]

I have never seen christine36, but I love it! :nod: My friend recreated the christine53 picture for me. I'll put it in this batch...last picture.

[macfan 57]

That drawing is terrific! Here are some more. The first one is from 1984, I think when she was on Solid Gold to promote her solo album. The rest are from the Tango era. The last one is a Halloween costume. She's with Judy Wong.

[NicksIllume]

She also drew Stevie for me. The fake signature was done by me.

[ThePenguin]

That's quite a racy Halloween costume photo.

Not quite as racy as the 'jcPosition' picture though. :D That is too darn sexy for words. A friend once told me 'if you turn that picture on its side (to the right), it's like Fleetwood Mac porn' LOL.

-Lis

[GypsySorcerer]

I'm loving the pics....and I love Chris' Chrissy Snow ponytail. :nod: :laugh:

[macfan 57]

And, some more.

[macfan 57]

And more. The first Chris/Mick picture is pretty rare, I think. The last Chris/Lindsey picture is from Mick's 1988 wedding.

[ThePenguin]

This is one of the sexiest pictures I've ever seen of Christine. If anyone has a better quality picture, please post it. I have the Bam Magazine cover with the original picture & this one doesn't do it justice.

I have a massive poster of that shot, that I am embarrassed to say I still have not framed. :eek: It's hanging in my walk-in closet where I keep a huge part of my collection, but I need to get a real frame and maybe add it the the basement stuff. She is gorgeous in that shot; how I wish i had eyes like that....

-Lis

[NicksIllume]

I had a picture of Mick and Christine where they practically look like a married couple. I'll have to find that one. I can't remember what I've posted and what I haven't.

[Aisling]

And, some more.

i've always loved that shot of cm & sn (cmcvie7.jpg). . .they look so happy. again, great job with the pictures you guys! i'm so glad we're in the 80s now. . .nothing beats a good pair of crystal carrington shoulder pads. it's hilarious.

You're lucky you have the poster. I just have the BAM cover. I think that is the sexiest that Chris has ever looked.

[macfan 57]

NicksIllume, I've never seen those from that last batch you posted. Here are still some more from the 1980's. The last one is my favorite of the Chris/Stevie pictures.

[NicksIllume]

Playing the chair!

[macfan 57]

Playing the chair!

I've never seen that one before! I don't have any more 1980's pictures just now, so I thought I'd start the 1990s'. These are all from the Behind The Mask tourbook. There are some pretty spectacular pictures of Chris in that tourbook with the last picture I posted being my favorite.

I hadn't seen that one either until this morning. Immediately, I broke into hysterical laughter. I watched Japan Rumours last night and heard the chair story for the millionth time. Hard to believe she was nearly 50 in 1990. Here are a few of her with Stevie scattered through the years.

Do you know when that last picture was from? I've never seen that before.

Here are some more BTM pictures.

[ThePenguin]

Compare the 'stick-up' one on pg 2 (from about 1973?) and the 'mini christine' one above-- am I the only psycho who thinks she's wearing the same scarf?

Maybe it had sentimental value...

[macfan 57]

These are from the Clinton inauguration era.

[macfan 57]

I'm going back a bit now. I just found these new pictures from the Tango, late 80's era.

[macfan 57]

Here are some pictures from the Time era. The first two are from the Time CD booklet. The last one is from Q Magazine. That is the only picture I've ever seen with all 6 members.

[NicksIllume]

I hadn't seen that article picture with all of the Time line-up. I love the look John is giving Christine and the look Mick is giving the both of them in the other. Some are from the 90s, one with Stevie, and some are from the 70s...forget being organized.

[GateandGarden]

I am really enjoying this thread. I've printed out some pics and put them on my wall. Thanks y'all. :)

Hillary

[macfan 57]

I'm going way back now. I think these may have been missed in the beginning of this thread. The first two are from her Chicken Shack/Christine Perfect days. The last one is that gorgeous inside picture from the Mystery To Me album.

[macfan 57]

Here are some more from the 1970's that we may have missed. The first one is from the 1976 Crawdaddy Magazine cover. The last one is the VERY politically incorrect Halloween picture. Chris is in black face & John is wearing a Nazi uniform.

Love the one of her w/ the little doll heads and the mighty short skirt LOL. Very sexy. One wrong move and the mystery's over, as my dad once said. :lol: Mick took that picture! At least, he's credited w/ it in the book...

I think Chris was supposed to be Aunt Jemima in the Halloween one. :)

The picture of her holding the suitcase/John offering her the flower always struck me as rather twisted. FMac black humor, I guess.

-Lis

[GateandGarden]

I love that first Chicken Shack picture. I think she's silently saying, "Yes, of course I know I'm sexy, and the sexiest one of the bunch, at that." And I love that pic from Mystery to Me.

I love chris9!

Aaaaah!

Information overload!

I am becoming over stimulated.

Gail :lol:

[GateandGarden]

I am becoming over stimulated.

Gail :lol::laugh: :lol: Same here. :)

Hillary

[macfan 57]

One last batch today. I wouldn't want everyone to get overstimulated. :lol:

By the way, in the first picture Chris is wearing a B. B. King shirt. He is one of her old blues heroes.

[NicksIllume]

A few random ones for more stimulation...

[macfan 57]

NicksIllume, I LOVE the last one, cstango. There were a set of similar Tango era photos of Chris & Stevie listed on eBay about a year ago. I never had a chance to save them to my computer. Is there any chance you have the rest of them? I think there were about 5 or 6 different pictures. If you have them, can you post them here?

I only have the one, but I wish I had the rest of them.

[macfan 57]

I only have the one, but I wish I had the rest of them.

Oh well, thanks anyway. At least I have one from that set now. :) At the time that those pictures were listed on eBay, I had just gotten my computer & I didn't really know what I was doing. I didn't even know that you could save pictures off the internet to your computer. If I remember, those pictures sold for some pretty good prices, too. There were quite a few bidders.

[NicksIllume]

Stevie and Christine...double your pleasure. :laugh:

[macfan 57]

Here are some Dance pictures of Chris. The first four are from the Dance video/DVD. I believe the last one is from the Dance tour.

[macfan 57]

Here are some more from the Dance tour.

[macfan 57]

Here are still some more from the Dance era. I believe the first two are outtakes from a Rolling Stone photo shoot. The third picture is Chris & Stevie at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. The fourth picture is from the Brit Awards.

[NicksIllume]

From the Dance era...

[NicksIllume]

From Behind the Music...

[NicksIllume]

R&R Hall of Fame Group shots and Brit Awards...

[macfan 57]

NicksIllume, those Dance & Brit Awards pictures are incredible! They're so much better than the ones that I have. I checked out that Getty Image website. They have fantastic pictures. Here's another one. This one looks like it might be from the 1978 Grammys. This looks like the same guy that was sitting next to Chris at the Grammys when they won album of the year. I don't know who it is, but Lis thought it might be Christine's brother. Lis, is this John Perfect?

My guess is yes. I compared it to the pics on the john/chris story and it sure looks like him to me. She's very close to her brother and I wouldn't be at all surprised if he accompanied her to major stuff like that (and yes that picture was from the Grammys.)

R&R Hall of Fame Group shots and Brit Awards...


That last one of the Brit awards is framed on the wall right over my computer. :p I love that one. Wasn't that the last time Chris was 'part' of them?

--Lis

[jbrownsjr]

Yes I think that was her last time.

[NicksIllume]

These are from Rex Features...

Wasn't the Grammys the last time Chris was a part of them? I think the Brit Awards came before the Grammys. I thought the day after the Grammys, she packed up & moved back to England. I think Stevie may have mentioned that at some time.

[macfan 57]

These are from Rex Features...

These new pictures are fantastic! I'm saving them to my computer. I LOVE 212753a(Mick & Chris). Do you think this is from the Behind the Mask era?

I think it probably is....

Mick looks healthier in this one than in the other one you posted of Chris and him together. Boy he looked pretty wretched in that. Chris, of course, looks lovely in both. ;)

Thanks for the exact dates. :) Was the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction back in January?

Here's another Dance era picture of the band. I believe this was in Rolling Stone.

More from Rex Features...

I just noticed something funny about those 2 pictures of the Rick/Billy era lineup where they're holding the awards for gold or platinum records. If you look closely at the awards, you can see the awards are for Tango In The Night, not Behind The Mask. It looks like Rick & Billy got awards for TITN even though they never appeared on the album. I thought something was unusual because in those pictures, both Chris & John look more like what they did in 1987/1988 rather than 1990 or thereafter.

Yeah, they're from TITN. Rex Features would give you the exact date and such of the picture.

[macfan 57]

Here are some pictures of Christine, post Fleetwood Mac & the Dance. In the first picture from 2000, she received an honorary degree from a university near her home in England. In the second picture from 2002, she is with Taylor Mills, who is a back up singer for Brian Wilson. The third picture is Chris in Sphere Studios in London in 2003 recording In The Meantime. The fourth picture, also from 2003 is Chris & Ken Caillat. The fifth picture is Chris accepting a Capital Gold Legends award for Rumours in 2003.

[NicksIllume]

Some more recent photos

[jbrownsjr]

I never saw the degree pic! :blob2:

[CFR]

Well, I finally sat down and looked thru all the wonderful pix. Its like a snapshot of Christine's life. Thank you everyone.

Just 3 quick observations;

One - Christine is absolutely gorgeous. No brainer there.

Two - All the pix of Stevie and Christine, it is my opinion that Stevie's admiration for Chris is abundantly clear. She holds onto Chris in almost every pic.

Three - This is the saddest for me. As wonderful as this thread is it would have been so awesome to see this on CHRISTINE'S website. In my humble opinion her website has been all but abandoned while this site is as busy as I wish hers was.

It would've been neat to see it there, but at least she is getting lots of love here, don't be sad! ;) IMO it must be hard for a new website/message board when when another one has already existed for awhile, and people are maybe a bit more comfortable posting there. Over there at her site, it's like you recognize a few people but basically it's strangers, and no one seems all that active. maybe once her Q&A answers come out, her message board will get busier.....

[macfan 57]

Here are some recent In The Meantime pictures. I'm sure most of us have seen these pictures, but there's no harm in seeing them again in this thread. :)

[macfan 57]

These are my 2 favorite pictures of Chris from this year.

[macfan 57]

I just swiped this one off eBay. I bought the picture on the right & I have it framed on my desk.

It's like they're exuding a "thank god there's another girl in this band for me to hang out with" vibe. Oh to be fly on the wall those nights they shared a room and complained about their menfolk.... :D

[macfan 57]

I know we're near the end here, but I just found ALOT more pictures of Christine. I hope no one is bored with looking at pictures of Chris. There're too many of them to sort in any kind of order. Here's the first batch. The first 2 pictures are from the Dance era. The others are from the 1980's.

[macfan 57]

Here are some more. These are all from the 1970's. In the last picture, Chris is carrying John McVie, at least a cardboard cutout of John.

[macfan 57]

And, some more. These are from the 1980's. The last picture is Chris with Jerry Garcia.

[macfan 57]

And, more. The first picture is Chris in a B. B. King shirt with Bob Welch. The fourth picture is Chris, Stevie & Sally Field at the Clinton inauguration. The last picture is Chris & Stevie at Landover, MD(the last Dance show & Christine's last concert ever).

[macfan 57]

And, still more. The first four are from the Tusk tour. The last picture is Chris, Stevie & Lindsey at the Clinton inauguration.

[macfan 57]

And, a few more. The first one has Chris playing the guitar. The other one is Chris, John & Stevie at a 1979 press conference.

[ThePenguin]

Wow Macfan, you go girl! You found several I hadn't seen before.

I was trying to organize some of my FM stuff yesterday and boy was it a mess. What i'll usually do is print stuff out, highlight/label the important stuff, date it, then drop it in the cabinet w/ all the others. So after a few mos i have piles of it, plus tons old stuff that is like 'miscellaneous' where I'm not sure what file to put it in.

All my FM pictures, however, are VERY organized since this was a major project I did earlier this year. ;) I'll see if I can find some rare ones today and get them up.....

-Lis

[ThePenguin]

OK I found three that I don't think have been in this thread yet-- one's from 1984 w/ Bob Seger-- at the grammy's or MTV awards, not sure which; the other is from some Entertainment Tonight Special, and the last is maybe from about 1990?? She looks terrific.

-Lis

[ThePenguin]

Two more-- one from the Rolling Stone cover shoot, a topless Chris :laugh: --- guess that idea didn't last long-- and the other was from the Don Kirschner awards, is that right? For some reason that is in my head. They got too many darn awards to keep track of.

-Lis

[Claudia]

All of these are really great! I had several pictures in my old computer, but very few in the new one, so this is really helping me get my collection recomposed. Thank you! :p

Mine are not organized at all. But this thread will help. My goal is to get all my pictures chronologically organized & then back up everything to CD, just in case I have any computer problems. Of course, I thought I had them all, then you just posted several more that I've never seen, the Bob Seeger & BTM pictures. :) Where on earth did you dig up that "topless" Rolling Stone picture?

I have most of mine printed out and put chronologically in a few huge albums-- individual members, group shots etc. Years ago, before i knew I could save pictures to my computer, I just used to print them out, hence the crappy quality of some of them. I found most of them on-line somewhere at some point, and of course others I just cut from magazines etc over the years.

I have saved tons on the computer in recent years though, I should really put them on CD like you Macfan.....

Don't know where i dug up the topless Rolling Stone photo.. on the internet somewhere. Funny how she's clinging to that sheet for dear life. :laugh: John's turned away so he doesn't have to witness the spectacle. He must be engrossed in those Linda Ronstadt pics. ;)

Totally OT but yesterday in Pathmark an employee told me I reminded him of Linda Ronstadt in the 70's. I thought that was pretty funny since I don't look anything like her IMO. But she was cute back then so hopefully that was a compliment?!

I may have a few more RStone outtakes, gotta go look--

-Lis

[ThePenguin]

Found the other 2. The sigs in the first one look very fake to me BTW.

-Lis

[macfan 57]

More Rolling Stone outtakes! I'm not very familiar with the others signatures, but there's no way that's Christine's signature, in my opinion.

[NicksIllume]

The last picture is Chris, Stevie & Lindsey at the Clinton inauguration.

DAMN! Why can't I be that tall and that skinny?

Where did you hear that? I thought when she is signing stuff on the Japan backstage stuff she is using her right hand...but geez maybe not... I should check that out. That would be news to me. Further evidence of her brilliance! :cool:

Now that I think about it- when she was asking that guy how he spelled his name, I think she was writing w/ her left hand. How perceptive of you...anyway let us know after you watch the tape. Now I'm curious. Lefthanders unite!

No, that book was printed up that way, it's not a real signature! :)

I never got close enough to get her autograph! I was close enough at Great Adventure to make eye contact and get a wave. And in 1997 backstage, when we met John, we got a quick glimpse of her down the hall before the show.

Macfan, pretty cool that you noticed the left handed thing right away. It's weird because in my head now i can clearly see her writing w/ her left hand, yet it never 'clicked'. For me that's peculiar, I'm usually un-healthily obsessive about minor details! :laugh:

-Lis

[jbrownsjr]

Can I get the story behind that? Isn't she a lefty?


I wrote her a letter after her solo tour and sent a little note with the pic. So I actually didn't get to meet her. Although I sat near her piano during the show in the small club she played at, I got a smile.

I melted.

"I'm not a John McVie. I used to be."

"Here, take my measley five dollars..."

Along those lines- on the Tusk photoshoot tape-- John was really bored and being very silly w/ Stevie, kissing her neck etc until they end up clutching passionately at each other and acting totally nutso. Chris sees him all over her and laughs and says, "John, it used to be me you did that to!"

>>>I'm tagging along with you the next time there's a show.
>>>me too, I would have knocked ppl over to get to her!

At which point John Courage would've been on you like white on rice, my friend. :laugh: He circled about like a nasty vulture. Not the most endearing of people. Mind you, we are the most ordinary, boring, harmless looking people, but I felt like if I made a wrong move, we were history. I guess he is just very protective of them. At one point he came over to John while he was talking to us and whispered in his ear--like it was something extremely top secret: "Ten more minutes." :lol: Like it would take John lots of time to change his shirt for the show, and we were keeping him from his preparatory duties. To be honest John Courage was the reason we didn't ask John if we could have a picture w/ him. I was scared JC would throw our arses right the heck out!!

Don't be sorry, i wondered too. However, i have concluded that they did not. Based on...vibes? intuition? evidence? Stevie's loyalty to christine? John's seeming "not that way" personality trait, coupled with his lingering love of Chris? :p

Yes, it's surprising that you didn't figure out that Chris is left handed. You usually pick up on every little nuance, even more than me. :laugh:

Ah, a quick glimpse down the hall. That would have been so tempting. :D I guess with John Courage around, anything more than a quick gliimpse was all you were going to get. :)

Yeah I'd go w/ all of the above. :p I think sleeping w/ 2 of your 3 male bandmates is quite enough for any woman. There's an interview tape from around 1980 w/ John and Stevie, where he says Stevie must not like him or thinks he's ugly or something-- and she tells him, "John, there's still time." but he says he can't because his wife's there. :p

BTW there are a couple parts in that photo shoot where J and S are being flirty. In another section he puts his hands on her tush and she pulls them up-- I think that was right before he lifted her and carried her away. :rolleyes: In another part he makes like he's about to slip his hand down the top of her shirt; she smacks him and says, "You're terrible!" He laughs but then after a minutes sighs from the boredom and mutters, "I can't stand it." John and photo shoots-- not a match made in heaven. :laugh:

I've wondered that also. Imagine the shocked look on my face while watching a video of Largo from '79. During Sara, Lindsey wanders over to the piano and plants one on Christine's cheek then I had to rewind. That time he kisses her during Tusk at a U.S. Festival...:xoxo:

Oh goodness. :shocked: I still think the main way L and C 'knew' each other was in the musical sense. I believe they had a respect and a fondness for each other but anything beyond that....I just don't see it. And let's not even bring poor Richard into it. :p

-Lis

[macfan 57]

I always suspect LB and CM myself.

I don't think so. I think there was a definite musical respect/relationship between them, but that's it. They were never even really friends, let alone anything more. There are 2 interviews where she acknowledges that they were never friends. I know about the U.S. Festival kiss, but that was just in the heat of the moment. I didn't know about 1979 Largo. I never noticed it. Of course, the quality of my video is so bad, it's kind of hard to see it, if it did happen. :D

[jbrownsjr]

I think they were great friends. From all the research I have done, both have said great things about each other. Especially from a music perspective, but I have heard CM refer to LB like a big brother. And I think she even said, he would do anything for me if I asked.

I think when she left, he was a little hurt. IMO, LB loved CM. (in the good way)

They have always said pretty appreciative things about each other musically. I think they got along, but were never friends in the sense of calling each other just to shoot the breeze. I'm sure they were all hurt when she left, just as they were all hurt when LB left.

I think after all these 5 have been through, there had to have been a basic 'like' of each other on a fundamental level, or things never would have worked the way they did. I remember Stevie said a couple of years ago that if one of them ever was sick or in trouble, she knows the other 4 would be there in a heartbeat, and I'd like to believe that is ultimately still the bottom line. :xoxo:

I think they were less hurt by CM leaving than by LB leaving. As they have mentioned, CM lived up to her end of the bargain of 40 dates. LB backed out of a tour. I would have been madder at LB - but I have issues with the whole 1987 LB leaving :laugh:

I agree that Chris leaving was certainly less of a surprise. But still it must have been weird to deal w/ the whole reality of 'this person is really no longer part of us'. That had to be surreal in both cases.

She was definitely signing that album left handed. I took note of that right away the first time I watched the tape. Christine McVie is a southpaw. :D
Yeah Chris is assuredly a lefty. She writes left-handed & -- even more indicative -- she shakes the maracas in her left hand. You can also tell by the way she plays keys that she's left-handed.

The last one was taken in Amsterdam, Holland in 1988. I'm sitting next to her but somebody cut me off (thank God). Go to my site (see my signature) and click on gallery 17. There's a bunch of Christine pics.

Debbie

OK, I have to ask you-- how did you get to meet them all? You look really chummy w/ them. ;)

I'd like to hear that story also. I have new galleries to look at for a while! :]

I used Catdancer's link to her website, Stevie's Room. It said the website had exceeded its 40 MEG limit per day. Has anyone else had any problem accessing the site?

I had no trouble earlier accessing the site. You'll love the pictures on there.


I got the same message when I tried to access it just now.

I was able to see it for awhile, but then I got that same message. Plus there was a pop up ad in front of *every* picture and some of them wouldn't close. Weird. but anyway, there are some neat pictures there.

More pictures of Christine. :cool: Hopefully, the website will be back tomorrow so I can see them. I have a popup guard so hopefully that will get rid of the pop up ads.

[NicksIllume]

I have a pop-up ad blocker, but those ads were sneaky. Don't worry...I saved several of the pictures.

I like those pictures! Thanks, NicksIllume. :)

There are quite a few more on that page. I think two or three were autographs, but I didn't get to save those. Well, one...but it's HUGE.

I love those pics. Thanks so much for posting. :wavey:

[macfan 57]

I still can't get that website. If anyone else can, please post the rest of the pictures. I'd hate to think I'm missing out on any Christine McVie pictures. :D That website sure is VERY hard to get to. :distress:

I was able to view the website this morning and save some more pictures. Unfortunately, I cannot resize a few.

Thanks, NicksIllume. :) I just tried again, still nothing. I got the message that it had exceeded the daily limit. You must have gotten lucky earlier this morning. Can you e-mail the larger size pictures to me? I have software that can shrink the pictures so I can post them. Those pictures are great, by the way!

[macfan 57]

Here are 2 more autographed pictures from that website. Thanks to NicksIllume. :)

That website is beyond me. I still have not been able to access it. Very strange. :confused: By the way, I LOVE that second picture of Chris.

Me too. The way the woman makes her E's still kills me. I'm trying to master the Christine McVie E's. Yeah, I'm pathetic. :rolleyes:

I spent a good portion of 8th grade trying to do just that. :rolleyes:

At one time in my crazy youth I was actually able to do damn good forgeries of all their sigs except LB's, his was always a toughie. John's was a piece of cake. Now that I am an adult, of course, I no longer aim to forge people's signatures. (well except when I am really bored LOL)

BTW I am listening to Channel 13 to Chanticleer (gay mens choir) and they are freaking amazing.

I'm sorry, I'm looking for another host because Bravenet sucks :(

As for being chummy with the Mac members, that's a long story and it goes all the way back to 1981 when they did pre-production work for Mirage in France. I slept 3 weeks in a bus shelter in the middle of nowhere to have my picture taken with Stevie. I also met Lindsey and John there. A year later Chris came over to Holland to promote Mirage. During that year I had made some contacts at the record company and with dj's. And that's how I knew where she was. Although I hadn't met her in France, she instantly knew who I was. Anyway, over the years Fleetwood Mac would do a show or she'd do promotion (for Tango) and she always knew who I was. She always took the time to talk to me, had her pic taken, sign things etc. She's a real British Lady and a celeb who treats her fans very well, she's very interested in what YOU have to say about her and her music, she REALLY listens and is interested in you as a person. I hate to say this, I'm not a really big fan of her music but I love her as a person. She's a great lady.

Great story! I always had a feeling that Christine would take the time for people and treat them like people. As for the three weeks in a bus shelter, I would have done the same thing to see Stevie. Any more interesting stories up your sleeves? :)

That doesn't surprise me at all. Christine McVie is THE untimate class act.

By the way, has anyone noticed that Christine's e's look like f's? I'd think her signature would be hard to copy.

It must be a south paw thing. I can't do it so I've given up for now.

I'm a southpaw and it's still very hard to do. Those Birmingham schools must be to blame. ;)

I coloured a few pictures out of boredom.

[macfan 57]

Here's a few more pictures that I noticed on eBay during the last week or so. They're both casual pictures. The first one is Chris with money, probably from some time during the late 70's, early 80's. The second picture is Chris in an airport, some time around the Dance or just before.

Oh my God, how much do I love that airport picture??? She is so gorgeous. I wish I were tall and glamourous....

I think maybe the 1st one is 1982, I think she did a Mirage photo session wearing that top....?

I love her so much! As for the 1st pic...what a print on that dress, a couple dollars, lighter, and pack of cigarettes. :laugh: I love the airport photo...looking quite the sophisticated English lady. That reminds me of footage I have of them coming in to Hartford (I think) during BTM. It talks about Stevie's insane amount of luggage and shows her with a few small cases coming out of the plane obviously yelling...Christine is wearing some sort of hat and smoking...Mick is dancing around. Stevie has on zero make-up. In my opinion, it's safe to say there are no pictures of Christine floating with no face. Now, I want to watch that tape.

Lis, is there any chance you'd consider putting a sticky onto this thread so it stays near the top of the board just under the Chris/John story?
