Correct you are on all counts...there IS "something" about Christine...it IS cool, and I absolutely do not think.

[GypsySorcerer]

Of course. Christine is fab. :]

[ontheEdgeof17]

It's the harcut. Yes?

[Gailh]

So what's the coolest thing you think she's ever done?

For me it was the band reunited to play a concert for Bill Clinton when he was leaving the White House.

Just think a US Senator and first lady wants you to play for the most powerful man on earth and Chris says "Nah"

Cool or what?

Gail

[chiliD]

So what's the coolest thing you think she's ever done

Took my 1976 Eric Clapton concert program around to the other members of Fleetwood Mac to have them autograph it, then returned it to me just as the house lights went down.

[HomerMcvie]

She's, uhhh, okay, I guess. I think she always should have tried to do more twirling, etc. I think FM would've been much more popular had she done that. STEREO twirling would've been HUGE! And, she could've mimicked (sp) some other kind of farm animal, thus creating more of a barnyard effect. That could've replaced the opening tribe music of Tusk. Bah, moo, bah, moo..... see what I'm saying?






She's only the coolest (and I mean that in the truest sense of the word) woman who ever breathed. :xoxo: :xoxo: :xoxo: :D

Of course, Christine is a very cool lady. I think when she slapped Lindsey & threw her drink at him, that was pretty cool. She was sticking up for her band. And, he probably deserved it, too ;)

And regardless of how he felt about Stevie, there are things that you just don't do onstage. If the account is accurate, he EARNED that slap and wine.

[David]

And regardless of how he felt about Stevie, there are things that you just don't do onstage.dB, when are you & I going to play in a band together? If we played only fleetwood mac music (which is basically all I know how to play), what would we play? What would our set list be?

It's a good thing I wasn't in the band, or I would have demanded that he be fired. Why not? I understand that they were under a lot of stress and that he was especially drunk that night, but hey, they didn't let Danny Kirwan get away with that excuse. Lindsey was being, putting it bluntly, a spoiled brat. Hell, they gave him all kinds of freedom on "Tusk," and then he pulls this crap. I would have been on the phone that night to about any guitarist worth a damn who'd return my call!

Steve, that's SO funny. Two minutes after posting, I realized I'd forgotten GYOW(and I even play that song out every weekend!), but I let the list lie, to see who called me on it! :lol:

Actually you're right. Also she should have worn more chiffon and wrote some lyrics that mention witches or white winged doves (or both) or white winged witches! That would have been very cool! :] :]

Which would have ROCKED!!! I love Lindsey, don't get me wrong. But Fleetwood Mac with Eric Clapton...all I can say is :] :] :] And, it would have worked, as there were really only about four or five hit songs that were in his set around that time. So, they could have done those as well as some of the Mac's blues material. BTW, I'm not so sure EC would have said no, as this choice quote from Lindsey himself over on Madness Fades suggests:

"When Eric Clapton hangs out with Mick or us he’s always saying, “God, I wish I was in a band again.” That’s because the burden is all on him. It’s just not the same when, as a leader, you’re paying people a certain amount each week to play with you. The balance of power is not the same, and it drains you. Bob Welch had a couple of successful solo albums, but now I think he misses being in a group where people will give you honest feedback, tell you when you’ve got your head up your ass. You need that thing when other people in the band have as much at stake as you do. We could certainly all do solo albums, but that wouldn’t be the death of Fleetwood Mac. There are still good creative ties and I think we all still enjoy - and need - the feedback we get from the group situation. I can’t imagine not feeling that way anytime soon.
BAM, January 1981"

Christine sent me an autographed picture when I was 16. I had written an essay about her for a school project and sent it to Warner Brothers. The pic has a few sentences from her (an inside joke about her show) and her sig.

She's a great human being that I will love and respect til I die. :angel:

[HomerMcvie]

And my list was written with NO prejudice! I HONESTLY tried to think of a couple more -you know who- songs that I'm not SICK TO DEATH of.
Dreams, GDW, Landslide. Good songs that I'm just TIRED of hearing. Go away.
If they ever tour again, they need to do SOMETHING NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quit shamelessly promoting a 30 year old album!
But, back to my list, these are songs that David and I (and Chili?) are going to be playing, so it's not like Christine will be singing them. They're my favorite "songs", not performances. :xoxo:

Also, keep in mind that his career wasn't so hot in 1980. He had a few hit singles, but overall, he was releasing some so-so albums at best during this time. I could easily see him being open to working with a band, for a lot of the same reasons Lindsey mentioned.

Let's also not forget that Eric ended up in critical condition with bleeding ulcers the size of grapefruits (due to excessive alcohol abuse) around the end of 1980/early 1981 cancelling his own Another Ticket tour. We almost lost him then. That's when he FINALLY cleaned up his act.

[jbrownsjr]

He and John Mick and Stevie could have hung out at Betty Ford. I would have consulted them out here on how to proceed as a band! :rolleyes:

Very true. And hanging out with the McVies in those days certainly wouldn't have helped. Still, I think he might have considered joining the band. Because, from what I remember, it was getting together with Phil Collins in the mid '80s that really helped him get back to being a commercially successful artist. That's why I think he would have said yes in 1980, but not in 1987.

[jbrownsjr]

I'm pretty sure he started working with Eric Clapton around 1983.

[chiliD]

I'm pretty sure he started working with Eric Clapton around 1983.

Nope, it was 1985 (smack dab in the middle of the 80's)...for Eric's Behind The Sun album. The album that got Eric & Nathan East together (only for a couple of songs, though)...even though Nathan wouldn't tour with Eric until 1987. Actually, Phil & Eric got together at Live Aid. Phil seemed to have played with EVERYBODY that day...the Bee Gees & his own set in London, then a Concorde trip to Philly to play with Eric & the reunited Led Zeppelin.

In 1983, Eric had Roger Hawkins (from the Muscle Shoals Swampers) on drums for his Money & Cigarettes album & tour...well, 1/2 the tour, then Roger quit and Eric got his previous drummer Jamie Oldaker back to finish the tour.

Bah, moo, bah, moo..... see what I'm saying?Yep, I see what you're saying!
That even when the subject is Christine, on Christine's own forum, you just can't stop talking about Stevie Nicks! :laugh:

Homie... the biggest Chiffonhead of us all. ;) :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

And, yes, I agree... there is something exceedingly cool about Christine.
She has the air of your favorite high school English teacher. The one who's very prim and proper, but has a wicked sense of humour that the whole class (well, at least the bookworms) can't help but find engaging.

Hello Christine-Fans,
Please come to the Greatest Hits Survivor game on the rumoursledge to Save As Long As You Follow :angel:

Vote off Seven Wonders! :evil grin smiley:

[chiliD]

Yeah but I thought he worked on Behind the Sun which Phil produced in late 1983 and it was released in late 1984.


Yeah, you're partially right...I double-checked my info last night. Behind The Sun was released in '85. WB rejected the first "all-Phil" produced submission. They had Eric go into the studio to record a few "more commercial" tunes with LA session guys (and Ted Templeman producing)...Nathan East & Steve Lukather being among them. Those were also the sessions that found Lindsey playing on "Something's Happening". His "hit single" (chalk one up for the record company) "Forever Man" also came from those LA sessions. A couple of really good tunes got sh*t-canned, though. ("Too Bad" & "Heaven Is One Step Away")

Phil co-produced (with Eric & Tom Dowd) ALL of Eric's next album, August, as well as played drums throughout.

[jbrownsjr]

Close enough Chili! :)

[xdreamsunwindx]

I love the whole "Throwing the drink at & slapping Lindsey" story. That's so effing rock & roll. In fact, it's probably the most rock & roll story in FM history.

I love Christine. She's just so laid back and easygoing, it seems. And her sense of humor is so dry and witty. Loves. <3

They're my favorite "songs", not performances. :xoxo:Yes, all fine. to be frank, it doesn't matter which tunes for playing. They can all be fun if you mix with the mojo & zap your Zen. Where are your songs on the Web, dave?

[David]

That's a great story. What a nice thing for her to do for a 16 year old kid. :thumbsup:I used to occasionally observe Chris after the shows. I never saw her "hang" with the fans; she always avoided the "hanging" & chatting, unless it was with co-workers like in the crew or tour managers, that sort of thing.

But that's precisely why I really like Chris: she hates the fans. Because I hate the fans, too! When she says she is tired of "touring," that's her euphemism for "goddamn fans crowding around me & demanding my autograph & touching my garments."

[chiliD]

She didn't treat ME that way. Actually, I think you're assessment of her is wrong. Her "tired of touring", in her own words, is that she hates hotels, hotel beds and "road food". :D

[jbrownsjr]

She also said she got tired of singing the same songs over and over (no pun) again.

Plus, the noise got to her. FMac has a lot of bass drum.

boom boom boom boom boom

That gets to you believe you me. (right David)

It bangs in your head all night long.

I hate the fans, too(and I know you mean her FM fans). When I play out, although I love playing live, when we're on break, I quickly make my way thru the crowd, saying a couple obligatory "hi's"(because people expect that), then I hide in a corner somewhere. I couldn't care less about hearing some yahoo babbling on and on, or even buying me drinks. I find staring at the wall infinitely more interesting.

[HomerMcvie]

Yes, all fine. to be frank, it doesn't matter which tunes for playing. They can all be fun if you mix with the mojo & zap your Zen. Where are your songs on the Web, dave?
We're still not web friendly. We play nearly every weekend within 30 minutes of home, so I've not really needed it as a marketing tool. Plus, I'm pretty lazy when it comes to stuff like that.
I've long wondered about your band, though. More than anything, I wanna see some pics! I'm mean, you're a FM tribute band. I wanna see how close everyone gets, lookswise.
Link?

[David]

She didn't treat ME that way. Actually, I think you're assessment of her is wrong.Well, maybe she's vacillated a bunch over all those years. Back in the '80s, she sure seemed fan-phobic to me. I thought it was absolutely charming!

I think Christine's current Q&A debacle pretty much sums up her view of her fans. Who can blame her? Who would care about a bunch of strangers when you have a renovated manor in Kent?

Stevie used to ignore the gushy teens & adult fans & just hang with young kids, mostly girls, putting beads on them. She did that at the Hollywood Bowl. she wasn't talking to anyone over the age of 5.

I love it when the stars get so frazzled that they lash out at all these fans. One of my favorite stories is of Laurence Olivier & Vivien Leigh, newly married & matinee idols around 1940, being hounded by autograph seekers outside the theater, & spoiled Leigh yelling, "Fack off! Now just fack off!"

[David]

We're still not web friendly. We play nearly every weekend within 30 minutes of home, so I've not really needed it as a marketing tool.

Link?My band doesn't go for any look, dave. Except for the Stevie -- she likes to dress up. The rest of us would be mortified doing so, although I'd consider dressing up as Ivan the Terrible or something. Sara put up some songs & pics from our trip to the Cannery in Vegas last year at www.sararhiannon.com/mirage/. We're going to be in Palm Springs in a couple of weeks & I hope to get more photos & sounds then, & some video if the venue will allow it. Then our only other job on the books is in Vegas, at the Stratosphere I think, coming up in August. We're pretty widely known as the least-working tribbie band in the country!

Any time you make it out to CA, we'll hang & jam!

[jbrownsjr]

If I gave a **** about the Q&A I would be a little pissed. If you don't want to do a Q&A then say so. No biggie. But to announce it then not do it.

That's pretty lame... no?

regardless of how comfy your life is..

I'll never listen to Christine again......

ok no :rolleyes:
You had me worried for a minute! I, too, think her just bailing on the Q&A is kinda lame. But, it's her choice to snub us! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Hey, I've just been snubbed by Christine McVie! :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed about that Q & A. But I've gotten over it. I forgive her. I still sent her a Happy Birthday message. :laugh: I doubt that she ever really, truly wanted to do it. She probably got talked into doing it, then got overwhelmed by the larger than expected number of questions.

It would be nice though if they removed the Q & A mention from her website.

Has anyone else here ever met her?
