Rumours, "standaard CD" at radio 2

[Bumperke]

Just so that you know, the biggest masterpiece of alltime "Rumours" is in the picture on radio 2, one of the best stations in the Netherlands.
See,..http://www.radio2.nl/page/schijven
Listen?? http://www.radio2.nl/page/live# and click LUISTER HIER. Maybe be at that particular time you hear some Rumours.

For all dedicated ledgies, every end of each year there is a TOP 2000, The heighst position is GYOW, on 94 (77 in 2005). This year i should be better, we all should vote to get Mac back. Eagles and queen fans are doing the same, do we have a deal??

I was surprised, since that song usually doesn't get played on the radio. I've heard it only once before, long time ago. Radio 2 does rule though. :nod:

Remind me at the end of the year and I will. :nod:

this year, by the time I thought about it, I couldn't find the online voting booth anywhere.. guess I was too late.

this year, by the time I thought about it, I couldn't find the online voting booth anywhere.. guess I was too late.It wasn't open as long as it used to be, only a few weeks. This is because they had already hit a new record with 1.9 million votes within 4 weeks.

I like to play Fm more in the record store (i work at free record shop), actualy my boss is totaly into lindsey Buckingham at the moment and tries to play stephanie and never going back again at his guitar (i'm one of the few who can't play guitar at work :( I have one but i can only jam on it a bit )
but my other coleagues only dig the older stuff and so its fleetwood mac greatest hits (sony) they only play. i try to sneak in some rumours or very best of occasionally but these guys are hard to please.

Not much of a radio listener in general still coll tey focused on this great album.

[Bumperke]

Were the (*^^%) do you all find the time to respond that many time???:confused:

Will

Ps we could found the FM dutch connection and meet once every year. After all, we did have a fanclub in the late 70's 'till mid 80's.
If i remembered well that was a girl named Debby ( catdancer) and a Karin.

[Mari]

something like the Stevie fanclub used to do? Went to a few meetings organised by the ladies of Affairs of the Heart, know them? Was fun :)

[Amsterdam]

A Dutch FM connection.... why not?

I used to be a member of the Stevie Fanclub around '88-'91, it had a fanzine called 'the Welsh Witch' (all by a girl called Debby). It was in this period that I 'discovered' FM and Stevie (was around 15 years old then) and became a member of the SN fanclub and the international FM fanclub :blob2: . Have never been to a meeting or so.. maybe they weren't held then any longer:shrug:

So, what was that like??? Meeting up with other fans in the old days??

[Mari]

The meetings I went to were in 1994 or 1995, I think.
Still got a big pile of fanzines from that time, but I don't know "The Welsh Witch". I've got.. Affairs Of The Heart, Crystal (Irish FM fanmag) and the last few copies of Frozen Love (Buckingham Nicks fanzine). Pre-internet days, that's the way FM fans met :D

the meetings were great! I remember one guy organised a party in a pub once, somewhere in Brabant. We had a Stevie impersonator, some kind of Mac karaoke I think, and people selling memorabilia.
Another meeting was a saturday organised by the ladies of AOTH (one of them Johanna Pieterman, people might know her from her drawings), lots of people turned up for that. Exchanging memorabilia, playing a mac quiz show (I remember I won a Stevie-coffeemug, still have it), just having fun, really.

A get-together would be fun (even if I'm not that big a fm fan anymore, must confess!)

[Bumperke]

Unfortunatly not, but the idea meeting once a year, exchange stuff and more is atractive. With the old and young ones, just one day of a year. Only talk about FM, and listen to it,....???

I'm convinced, who else.

Will
Maybe opening an weblog, in Dutch?

[Mari]

Ok, we could use some more enthousiasm for this meeting-idea from other Dutch ledgies though *KUCH* *HOEST* *rochel*

[Amsterdam]

:blob1: :blob1: enthusiasm here!! don't worry!
Sounds like fun those get-togethers before the internet was there!
where have the Dutch ledgies gone..???:shrug:
:wavey:

[shackin'up]

Hmmm. I guess I'd like to meet you guys... but listening to Rumours? Nahhh....

We could put some change together and try to buy Lindsey into a dutch concert for us.:D

By the way, wasn't the old fanthing besides Debbie from Jacky? She was a big Christinefan as I remember...

[marc402]

I'm in !
Hadn't responded yet becouse i was in germany over the weekend, and haven't been online sinds thursday night ;)
sounds like fun i've only ever met one dutch mac fan before but lost track of one another.

[GJK]

Yes, two girls: Debbie Droog and Jackie... I forgot. They were from The Hague, I think.

I was member of the FM fan club from about 1980 to... 1988?
Somewhere, I have all the magazines from the fan club (I never throw anything away apart from trash). But, Fleetwood Mac wasn't very active from 1982-1987.

What`s wrong with Rumours?? We can play the BN album the whole day, but guess that makes no one happy, BTW, Who wants to start a (the) weblog so we all can se what we organise and more??

Will

[Mari]

Hee Gerald, what about playing covers of Rumours, like Dougal Reed?:woohoo:
And I have a few other covers from Mac songs elsewhere (Patron Saints)

Weblog, well, sounds like a good idea, I don't mind setting one up somewhere. En dan kunnen we ook verder in 't nederlands.. beetje bizar, dit :D

I remember the names Debbie and Jackie from the Stevie fanclub as well (the Welsh Witch). I have never met any other FM or Stevie fans in the Netherlands (apart from chatting with people at concerts...:p )
Playing BN all day, sounds fun... I bought the LP recently, but am now looking for a turntable.

[Amsterdam]

That would be great, Fleetwood Mac, the Dutchain.
Will

For a start: I like the name Dutchain :thumbsup:

Just out of curiosity: when was the last time that you (Dutch) went to a FM concert (or any other member's concerts) in the Netherlands or nearby?? Mine was a loooooong time ago, in 1990 (Behind the Mask) in Germany. At the end of the concert they announced that Stevie and Christine weren't going to continue with FM....
I almost went to a US concert of the Mac in 2004 on the East Coast during my travels there, but in the end couldn't plan my trip around it, unfortunately...:(

[marc402]

i've never seen the mac in holland
seen them 3 times now and al were shaows from the say you will tour (the first in newcastle '03 en the last 3 in California '04)
btw love the name Dutchain aswell ingenious ;)

[Mari]

Fleetwood Mac: 1994 in Leiden (or was it 95? err.. anyway, with Dave Mason & Bekka Bramlett)
Peter Green & Splinter Group: 1996 Utrecht
Fleetwood Mac: 2003 in London (best one)

Almost went to the 1990 concert in Utrecht, but was on vacation with parents in France at that date. God I hated them for that, haha! But I was a bit young to travel back just for a concert, back then (15).

Also saw Fleetwood Bac a few years ago, *somewhere*... a very small village of which I don't remember the name. But I do remember they were great.

Dutchain? Hmm.. don't know. Can't come up with something else myself, though.

First time Ahoy Rotterdam 1900, Nieuw galgenwaard in Utrecht 1990, last Oberhausen 2003. As older ledgie 1980 the first time was legendary.
´Bout the weblog, Mari great that you wanna do it, and the name??
Its just a suggestion.

EEK. Anyone got a tip which one to use?? I'm knackered now, sorry but it'll have to wait.
Actually Dutchain would look great in the style of one of my oldfashioned crappy nicksfilian banners ;)

[shackin'up]

Ik had met een krantewijkje genoeg geld voor een jeugdherberg,kaartje, treinkaart en een t-shirt, maar mocht niet van mijn ouders in juni 1980 Ahoy Rotterdam. (ik was veertien).

Dus:

Dortmund 1987 en
Ahoy Rotterdam in 1987,
Utrecht 1990
Groningen 1995
Oberhausen 2003
London 2003
Oklahoma City 2003
Dallas 2003

Stevie Nicks: Rotterdam OSOTMtour(jaartal?)

geen idee, Mari!:lol:

Okee, ik ga denk ik voor blogger.com, daar kan nl. iedereen commentaar posten, ongeacht of je lid bent of niet. Maar ik kan tegelijk deleten wat ik wil :D (Oh, wat een macht *grijns* ... eh serieus, het zou kunnen dat m'n favoriete stalker opduikt en postjes achterlaat á la de porno rommel in het Nicksfiles gastenboek)

Tss Gerald, je weet niet meer dat OSOTM in 1989 was? Ja, 't is een tijdje geleden alweer, maar, echt???

Sorry Mari, don't know much about weblogs either... I checked your website, I like it!! Your banners at the bottom are funny (Stevie talks dirty). I see now that you've chosen for bloggers.com, it's all fine with me. Thanks for doing this.

Will, I can totally imagine that the 1980 concert was legendary-wish I had been there!!!! I will never forget my first (and only, sofar) Stevie concert in Rotterdam in 1989, when she changed into her countless different outfits! :laugh: :D
NB I keep writing in English... forgetting you're Dutch :shocked:

[danax6]

Een vriend van mij is in 1988 op dezelfde dag naar FM geweest en naar Pink Floyd. FM was er de 14e en 15e juni in Ahoy en Pink Floyd de 13e en 14e in de Kuip. Dus hij dacht twee vliegen in klap te slaan en is op de 14e naar Rotterdam gegaan. Na de eerste helft FM is hij als een kip zonder kop naar de Kuip gereden en heeft daar de laatste helft van Pink Floyd gezien. :laugh: Als ik toen niet maar 6 jaar oud was geweest had ik toch mooi één dag FM en één dag Pink Floyd gedaan. Hoe kun je nou genoegen nemen met maar een half concert?

Just asking to be sure, are you Dutch/ do you speak Dutch? Automatically assumed everyone in this thread is, I'm sorry if you can't understand a word of this all of a sudden :lol:

Niet! Ben 'n keer naar een concert in Amsterdam geweest waar ik halverwege weg moest om een trein te halen... echt waardeloos!

[danax6]

Niet! Ben 'n keer naar een concert in Amsterdam geweest waar ik halverwege weg moest om een trein te halen... echt waardeloos!Ik ga nooit meer met de trein naar een concert. Dat is niet te doen als je in een uithoek van het land woont, zoals Groningen of in mijn geval Heerlen. Ik heb altijd eerder weg moeten gaan.

Jahoor, ik ben Nederlands!!! En begrijp alles;) Ik schreef alleen zelf steeds automatisch in het Engels, terwijl jullie allemaal NL-ers zijn...

Dat is zeker flink ontzettend balen als je een concert halverwege moet verlaten om een trein te halen. We zijn maar al te vaak afhankelijk van de trein...helaas.

Alle niet-Nederlanders op de ledge zullen nu wel afhaken op deze thread :laugh: gemeen zijn we, he.

[Mari]

Verbaast me dat we nog geen commentaar gehad hebben :p

Nee, die fout maak ik ook niet snel meer, concerten in de Randstad.. of het moet wel een band/artiest zijn die ik heeeeel graag wil zien, dan probeer ik wel iets te regelen.

[Mari]

Het ziet er allemaal nogal simpel uit nog, maar 't is tenminste een begin:

don't worry, ik ben al m'n plaatjesverzameling aan het doorkijken zodat ik de boel wat kan opfleuren, om te beginnen ;)

Let´s go English again, you van communicate on the blog.
Great for starting it Mari, come ledgies respond and react.
Mari, just put FM and bandmember info on it.
I will help where ever i can!

Will

[Amsterdam]

Nice work Mari! I will post on the blog as soon as I have become an author...
We could use the Dutch blog for anything related to the Netherlands, that is boring/just not so interesting for the international crowd here. :p
We'll see! :wavey:

Trouwens, Vlamingen zijn ook welkom:wavey:
(wat mij betreft, tenminste:p)

We had also the 'Affairs of the Heart' fanzine. They held a few conventions, which were fun to attend and meet some Stevie-addictives.

Just out of curiosity: when was the last time that you (Dutch) went to a FM concert (or any other member's concerts) in the Netherlands or nearby?? unfortunately...:(

I'll answer in English.

My first Mac-concert was in 1988 in Rotterdam.
Then Stevie in Ahoy' in 1989
Mac in Utrecht (Mask)in 1990
Then the band with Bekka and Dave in 1994 in Leiden
Then Mac in Oberhausen during the SYW-tour.

Overigens heb ik de nodige webspace en wil wel een Nederlands forum hosten als daar behoefte aan is.

Edit: die is er al zie ik :-)

Thanks for your list! It's about time we see any of them in Europe, don't you think?

Yes, there is a start - the DutChain weblog - we're trying to organise a (little) fanday/afternoon/evening!! :cool: so, just add your ideas there, if you like. (dan mag het ook weer in het Nederlands ;) )

[Bumperke]

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
