It is great that someone that isn't as big of a fan as we all are can see how magical "Silver Springs" is, especially during that first performance of it on The Dance tour. It is a WOW! to everyone I know who has ever seen it, fan or not. It turned one of my friends into a Mac fan after watching The Dance video with me, and of course, she especially liked the "Silver Springs" part. It is just too wonderful!!!! :D

I agree with the writer. Why would you put yourself through that? Fame and fortune is great and all, but she's right and she does look furious after 20 years. No one I've talked to that's seen that denys that she looks pissed off! So it's a simple question, but - why did she go back? I don't think I could do it.

Because the drama sells, evidently. She's known this since Rumours, and why disappoint the public who's buying into this drama? The journalist isn't immune to it either.

Lux, you're always very acute, but what about a little Resnais? (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00005OCR3/qid=1105754015/sr=8-14/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i11_xgl27/002-6587565-3173649?v=glance&s=video&n=507846) ? A lot of people singing French songs and talking about love. ;)

SS from the Dance is what sucked me into total FM mania, even though I had been aware of the Mac since I was a teenager. I remember pausing for a moment before passing it by while channel surfing and saying, "who is that poor guy Stevie Nicks is going after?"

When I saw the reference to anger, I remembered two quotes I read from the Stevie Nicks: In her own words website (and, through the magic of the net and the cut and paste option--voila!):

In six weeks of rehearsal, it [performing Silver Springs for the MTV special] was never like that...Only on Friday night did we let it go into something deeper. When we went on Friday, I knew we'd bring it out in case it was the last thing we'd ever do. The other shows were really, really good, but they weren't the show I wanted to leave behind. This show was...I wanted people to stand back and really watch and understand what [the relationship with Lindsey] was." ~Stevie Nicks, Arizona Republic, August 12, 1997

Well, since that performance I have to sing Silver Springs to him almost every day, so Lindsey and I get to do and say things that we wouldn't get to say to each other in real life. It's like a release. Even now, we don't talk much, so when those songs come around and are directly involved with our relationship it's very therapeutic to work that stuff out. This way we get to have closure.
~Stevie Nicks, Miami Herald Nov 6, 1997


I've never thought their breakup was as simple as girl dumps boy. Boy is brokenhearted. It's more than suggested by the lyrics of SS that Lindsey was involved with another woman and I've always thought that contributed to things. On the other hand, according to Lindsey, Stevie wanted to "pack up and shack up" as well. Ah, the 70s. All that free love was not so free after all.

There was a whole mess of anger around on both sides but I know when I saw Lindsey on some of those behind the scenes tour video boots we have (from Tusk, in particular), he seemed to border on being obnoxious at times (and I'm a big fan and love the man now so don't throw any eggs at me, please;-) They both just grew up but old feelings are old feelings and they don't necessarily ever die.

You know that quote we all discussed last week about how they relive their love affair in a concert? Well, SS (from the Dance, especially) could be where they relive the breakup.

But, to this day, I think it's the most dramatically awesome performance of a song I've ever heard.

I know Stevie's phoned in her share of performances before, and even "acted" passionate when she might not be feeling that way. But the "Dance" version of SS is clearly real. And why wouldn't it be? It was the first time she was performing live alongside Lindsey since 1982 (not counting the Clinton inauguration, when we have to assume she was seriously valiumed out, and a one-off performance of "Landslide" during the Mask tour).

Don't deny that it is one huge aspect of this band's performance. Too big for my liking but I try to ignore it. I'm yet to see Robert Plant break down into tears, dance around as some Lord Of The Rings character, or start masturbating on stage whenever he performs any of his songs. The drama that the songs describe simply weren't a huge drawcard as opposed to the case with FM. Hence FM have to satisfy the crowd they have attracted so they play it up, and for many they succeed.

Preach it.

I can take singers expressing emotion and the like, that's part of their job in order to make the song appealing, in order to sell it. But don't fake it. Fleetwood Mac pretty much fakes everything, from the canned speeches that may have had meaning in the beginning but have now become cliched jokes, all the way down to the ridiculous Landslide bull****. Play the music and emote honestly, don't bull**** us.

I do think it sucks that Lindsey delibers possibly the best performance of the night with Come, and Stevie gets monsterous applause for coming on Stage for wearing Red Boots during Gypsy. And I agree with Lux about the way everyone goes on and on about Stevie's shawl at the end of GDW, although I would say GDW ROCKED this tour, because of the way Stevie performed it and the band not the shawl.

Does anyone else interpret the lyrics to Silver Springs as meaning Lindsey cheated on Stevie? I do not think that is what they mean at all..I always thought she was saying, "now that we have broken up and there are other women in your life, I do not want to know about it. I do not want to hear that she loves you or that you think she is pretty and remember you will never get away from me, the woman who really loved you. Maybe I am way off but I do not hear "he cheated on me" in her lyrics. She wrote the song after they had drifted apart and began seeing other people and it hurt..she just did not want to know what he felt for the new women..she wanted to remember what she wanted him to feel for HER. (shining autumn, ocean crashing, only dream, yadda yadda...)

Not a fan of the canned stuff either but alot of the stuff some people see as "canned", I see differently. I hate when people yelled out Stevie's name during the quiet parts of Say Goodbye. SO RUDE! Shut up and listen!

Slightly off topic but along the lines of "being rude"....as much as I enjoyed LB's guitar masturbation during the SB intro..I sort of felt it took the attention away from Taku's fantastic percussion. He even edited LIB to include the ladies screaming "go Lindsey...go Lindsey~"
If Stevie would have twirled for two or three minutes straight during one of LB's guitar solos or something..Sheebus........
*note ..I thought his moves with the guitar were swoonworthy, he is hot and was really working it but still..kind of rude with his choice of timing and all.

After they broke up, I always figured Stevie kind of went her own way (all puns intented!), happy to be out of a stifling relationship, but not ready to get into another one. Heartbroken Lindsey (I figure) started consoling himself with, perhaps a string of other women, or perhaps just one... :shrug:

Whatever...my point is that I don't think that SS refers to Lindsey cheating on her...just the different ways they reacted to the break up.

And I realize that this breakup was messy and complicated, but I always hate it when people see this performance (which is awesome!) and say, "Oh poor Stevie!" She broke it off with him!!! But anyway... :laugh:

And Lindsey's OOTC show was the best concert experience of my life (yes, over all the FM and Stevie solo tours I've seen), so I certainly need another solo tour. In fact I can't even imagine going to see Stevie solo again unless I can get in the front row, and even that's a maybe. Been there done that... :laugh:

In the additional footage from the Tusk doc that is floating around out there, he is most definitely obnoxious to her. The part where they are tying to work on Angel and she is trying to explain about the "low Mills Brothers harmonies" and you can see it in him, there is just a lot of anger bubbling right beneath the surface. Not to mention he's holding a bottle of cognac. :eek: He's thin as a rail in that video and looks almost like Perry Farrell when they show him doing his vocals. But I digress. It seems that of the two of them, the break up and subsequent success was hardest on him, if that makes sense.
I don't think he knew what was coming that night in 1997 when she suddenly turned into the Stevie of old right before his and everyone else's eyes. It was something to behold for sure.

It annoys me when people appreciate the manner in which Stevie drapes her shawl at the end of GDW more than the masterful collaboration that is Mick, John and Lindsey. And it gives me the anal irates when people scream out for Stevie after Lindsey has just treated them to his genius.

I think people can be incredibly gullible, or you have the case where they know it's played up and simply accept it and go along with it for their own pleasure. I personally couldn't give a **** (too many carbohydrates) about any love affair of theirs as it's the construction of the songs that make me listen to the music, not the manner in which they glance at each other.

I don't think people appreciate more the manner Stevie drapes her shawl, but it's an act that gives people the moment to express their appreciation for all of them. Usually people don't go around cheering at someone for draping shawls (even if it would be cute), they do it watching her, because the intensity of the song creates the right climax. And it's the same for Silver Springs, people is eager to see them interacting because the song and the way is performed are emotionally involving. Something like some scenes in Taylor/Burton's Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf: you can love or hate the film, but doesn't leave you indifferent.

Purely talking of Stevie and Lindsey as performers, they're both incredible, and they are equally important on stage, IMO. Personally, I'm more drawn by the way she feels the audience and responds to its vibes, the way she sings and communicate. He's a master as guitarist, and his energy is amazing during songs like Come, Big Love, Go Your Own Way, etc, but I tend to prefer the quiet ones, so I look to John. :D ;)

It seems with FM that they couldn't survive as the supergroup that they were, on the music alone. For me they could, I hate the romance crap, but it's such a big drawcard for many.
Stevie's been doing the boot, shawl, drama thing since the beginning of time, that's her image, she's not going to change it now, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. After all, this last tour was basically the "Buckingham Nicks" tour, IMO, which means it was split right down the middle as far as stage time is concerned. If Stevie didn't put her shawl on after 30 years of doing that, we'd all think WTF?? :eek: :shrug: :laugh:

Eh. I'm an original then;-)
I see your point about the women who came after the breakup, but still think it would be natural for a guy (and even the girls of that time) to be like kids in a candy store with all that attention.
And she does reference women who will come and go and all that jazz...so, maybe it's my own pet theory that he wasn't entirely immune to other women throwing themselves at him (or her falling for smooth talking musicians from other bands, either).
Whatever inspired the song and the anger--it's a great performance of a fabulous song. And, even if one wants to criticize later performances for some canned emotion, the night they taped the Dance was something very, very special and we're lucky to have it captured for all time.

The romance card makes me want to vomit. Tacky, imo...
As for the shawls, etc, I guess I don't mind, but, if Stevie's too old (hip) to pull off the twirling, boots, etc, she should give up that whole schtick.
I guess it's hard to be a sex symbol post-menopause. :eek:

I've never thought that for a minute but if that's how it seem's, I believe it was completely unintentional. I think Lindsey was just putting on a extra good show for the taping (if your talking about LIB). Lindsey was just really rocken out, and really in the moment, how can you not be to that performance of Stand Back?

well, i was talking about the shows i saw, that's when i thought it. But, yeah, it was a "good show" by Lindsey. It just crossed my mind that it was a tad scene stealish. No harm, really. I mean, he was playing guitar for the song, so. I just thought that. especially since it's so much (literally) her song, and she herself puts on the most "action" (twirling, dancing) during that song than any other. :D

I am frickin' psychic. :shocked: Before I read your post, I went "WTH are we supposed to watch, Taku playing? Lindsey brought the energy while Stevie was getting ready to kick a$$ on Stand Back. When she hit the stage, everyone stopped watching Lindsey do the guitar-bation and all eyes went to her. He didn't steal anything. If you listen to the SYW Stand Backs, you hear the audience go nutsos at a certain point in the song.....she's twirling.

Well, while I agree that some of the whole romantic thing might seem fake sometimes, I do believe that there is a spiritual connection. Those 2 are just connected and it shows. I have shown my concert photos to people who don’t know much about the band and they can pick up a vibe right from my photos of Stevie and Lindsey. They can tell that these 2 have a special kind of connection. That my friends cannot be faked it is real. :nod:

Now, as for people yelling another band members name out while another one is singing that is just plain rude and not cool at all. I have seen some pretty rude stuff at a few shows. Some people should just stay at home. :mad:

Not everyone goes to see the band for the same reasons. Some people really get into what shawl Stevie is wearing for what song. That is really not of any interest to me yet I love Stevie. Some people go just to ‘hear’ the music. That is fine but why pay over $100.00 to just listen when you can just listen to a CD? :confused:
Just because someone likes to see what shawl Stevie is wearing, or if Stevie and Lindsey are holding hands, or even getting to play Lindsey’s guitar does not make them any less of a fan. We are all fans and each of us is going to enjoy certain songs and certain aspects of the show that others might not. It is all good. :D

I for one feel that the whole band has a spiritual connection. That to me is one of the main reasons that I love this band so much. I just don’t feel that way with too many other bands. It is about more then just the music to me. :xoxo:

Well, as my very first post here, I will completely agree! Well said. You expressed my thoughts exactly. Especially your last paragraph.

Welcome! :wavey:

I think that performance did sort of catch Lindsey by surprise-the emotion that was still there and connected with him.

It is by far the best performance of SS that I have seen her do.

There is something there between the two of them.

Hey I liked the STand BAck antics....I said they were hot. However, when someone is playing a solo, be it Lindsey, Mick or Taku..it is common courtesy to watch. So you should be watching HIM not Lindsey...but to each his own. I prefer watching LB even when he is sitting on the side of the stage so who am I to complain. I was just saying if Stevie would have twirled during one of Lindsey's solos...it would be rude but Lindsey gyrating to Taku's solo is...well fine.
