ET riffs with Fleetwood Mac stars Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham, who give us the 411 on the Mac's highly anticipated "Unleashed" reunion tour.

One unique aspect about the tour is that the group is not releasing a new album but instead performing songs that they enjoy singing.

"We are not supporting a new album," Lindsey says. "We thought it would be very appropriate to go in and really just look at the body of work that we have and put together something that we would enjoy playing. And not put ourselves in the pressure of trying to redefine ourselves with new material."

It's been five years since the legendary supergroup last rocked out on the road, and their 2009 "Unleashed" tour coincides with the reissue of their signature 1977 album, Rumours -- one of the best-selling albums of all time, featuring hits such as "Don't Stop," "Go Your Own Way" and "You Make Loving Fun."

Stevie tells ET that the theme of the tour is to bring back the songs Fleetwood Mac fans know and love.

"This is our life," she says. "These are our beautiful songs that we worked so hard on, that you love. And for this one time, we're going to play all this for you."

[CADreaming]

Thanks for posting! They look great!

[louielouie2000]

Ok, is it me... or does Stevie sound like an older woman for the first time here? She seems to have lost that youthful quality in her speech... I don't know how to describe what I'm saying. She almost sounds like someone who has dentures LOL.

She looks as radiant as ever too... but she also looks like a(n extremely well preserved, beautiful woman) in her 60s for the first time too. I'm not saying any of these things in a bad light at all... it just seems Stevie may no longer be the little girl pixie that she always has been :angel: .

[marinnette]

she looks great!!!! hope the tour will bring drama and then...they will have inspiration and material for a new album. hihihihihi!:D

[StandbackStevie]

It sounds like according to stevie this is not there last time touring and also sounds like they will be recording a new cd again according to stevie and please please we pray to the rock gods that she pulls out Sisters of the moon.
that is the "The Song" for me and pretty much everyone else on this board.:wavey: i am excited:blob1::blob2::nod::laugh::wavey::lol: they both look great too am looking forward to the mohegan sun show and probably will be my only show to go to on this tour enless they come back to connecticut then will go to two shows.

[LB Freakazoid]

As someone else mentioned in another thread, most of the "hits" Christine's. Do you think they would go back to pre-B/N and do Peter Green's stuff? And on a wish, wouldn't it just freak everyone out if Christine showed up:blob1:....
And the comment of "doing the new songs in shows" in past tours.... HUUUHHHH? Yeah, they did a couple... but the only "new" songs were some that we just never heard live. And since Lindsey doesn't have too many hits with FM, sounds like a Stevie show to me....
I don't know, I just get a weird vibe with this tour.... it's an expensive and stale way to figure out if they can still get along in the same room so that they may want do another album together...
What happened to the premise of going against the "if it's successful, run it into the ground" theory. Lindsey-shame on you.

[Sanne2]

Whoa, Stevie NOT with straight hair?

definetly but she is aging beautifully i think she looks awesome:D

[TrueFaith77]

Yes, Stevie looks great!
Yes, It's WONDERFUL she also seems psyched about doing a new album (wasn't sure if that was just Lindsey's dream)!
Yes, I hope there's plenty of dramz on the road to write new songs about!

I was also struck by the story of them talking on the phone! HOW CUTE!! Stevie all worried that there isn't enough rehearsal time! Lindsey reminding her that they've done these songs a gazillion times (the set list writes itself... indeed). So cute. They are the cutest non-couple ever. They are the we of me. :xoxo:

[Tusky]

Sounds like Christine's playing in the background! LOL :laugh:

I thought the exact same thing. I have never been one of those Stevie-Lindsey romanticists, but there sure as hell did look adorable together. The way they look and smile at each other so candidly after all these years, and banter back and forth with one another is great. And unlike their stage shows, this was real and not rehearsed... it was just them being them.

[michelej1]

Ok, they pretty much threatened us pretty badly and basically declared we will be punished for wanting to hear something different. We will be sent to Gitmo, in fact.

What scared me is not only that they won't be playing new songs, but they sounded like they won't even be playing any songs that haven't always been in there setlist. When Stevie was scared about rehearsals, Lindsey said, "Oh, hey don't worry. We've been doing these same songs for 30 years. We know them well enough."

So, it kind of ruined my hope that we would be getting any overlooked gems that they have NOT been doing for 30 years.

The only good thing I heard was that Stevie finally said what Mick and Lindsey said, that they will probably do a new record. She said that when they do, we will have to sit through the new material (that we don't want and don't like). So, it sounds like she is on board for a new record eventually, if all goes well.

Stevie said she hadn't seen Linds in a long time. Well, how'd she think he looked? She had her hair curled. Nice to see them.

Oh, well . . .

I had the same exact feeling Michele. Usually Linds is the one who makes the move on the set list to be daring, but this time even he said hes just gunna run through the hits. I did LOVE seeing them together. Its been almost 5 years and after seeing them solo (more than five times each, for me), its just awesome to see them together!

[michelej1]

Also, she said "45 more shows so far." So, that gives us some indication of their hopes. It's not intended to be a short tour. It depends on how ticket sales go, I guess.

I still think Lindsey was semi-strong armed into doing a hits kinda show rather then an album then tour.... He could be going along with the majority vote on that one. He's always been the one that was more into going out with a purpose rather then just to go out on tour... So he's just going with the flow...

[Enchanted_Stevi]

1) LOVE this video
2) Stevie looks GORGEOUS! (i want her hair)
3) wicked pumped for the tour
4) I'm just wicked excited haha

[michelej1]

And the more I think about it, the more troubled I get. If Lindsey said don't worry about the lack of rehearsals, because it's the same songs we've been doing for 30 years, that indicates to me that the songs will have the old, familiar arrangements too. If I was dreaming of something like the remodeled SYLM we got for The Dance, then I can kill that hope.

Thinking of their appearance, I don't think they looked old. If anything, they looked too classy. They were sedate and stately. I would like to see a few concert clips to promote the new tour that show them in action. Take the clips from Lindsey's GOS solo outing and Stevie's Soundstage. Show them moving and sweating a little. Let people who haven't seen them before know that there will be some fun and motion at this concert.

I think that may be true. I'm sure Stevie and Mick are likely to have wanted to do the hits. I bet John just wants to play his bass but I get the impression that he would be open to doing a new setlist but in the end is happy just to play at all.

Then there's Lindsey, who performed more than half of his new album on his GOS tour and there were a few new arrangements of older songs, and now he's going and doing a nostalgia tour so that's really disappointing. I just want him to do solo stuff from now on unless the Mac become a proper working band again (unlikely). Lindsey is more a band with Wally, Neal and Brett than he is with Stevie, Mick and John these days.

Yeah I get it, I just hope they don't throw in too many Christine songs. I thought World Turning and Don't Stop was just enough last time. I mean Lindsey has only had three "radio" hits with the band. I mean I can see him doing these, realistically:

I'm So Afraid
Second Hand News
Go Your Own Way
Tusk
I Know Im Not Wrong (He seems to love this one)
Never Goin Back Again
Eyes of the World
Big Love
Bleed to Love Her (Maybe, due to the popularity of the Dance)
Peacekeeper

Sadly, I completely agree. The Gift of Screws Tour was nothing short of spectacular.

[AliceLover]

Ive come up with a list that is what I EXPECT and not exactly what I WANT.

Linds:

I'm So Afraid
Second Hand News
Go Your Own Way
Tusk
I Know Im Not Wrong (He seems to love this one)
Never Goin Back Again
Eyes of the World
Big Love
Bleed to Love Her (Maybe, due to the popularity of the Dance)
Peacekeeper

Stevie:

Landslide
Rhiannon
Dreams
Gold Dust Woman
Silver Springs
Sara
Gypsy
Stand Back
Say You Will
Goodbye Baby (To close the show)

Together:

The Chain
Don't Stop
World Turning

Now thats only 23 songs, which leaves room for two more. Will they do 2 "different" songs or will they do two Christine songs?

[Johnny Stew]

Sometimes compromises have to be made, to eventually get what you want.

If a "Greatest Hits" tour is what it takes for the band members to reconnect and to all get on the same page about recording new material -- becoming that proper "working band" again -- then I think it's a worthwhile trade-off.

[Tango]

Stevie and Lindsey are gorgeous together. Thank you for putting this up. It's hard not to laugh watching the subtle nuances of the interview. Lindsey seemed to be holding back a few guffaws: when Stevie picked "Go Your Own Way," as an example of a song that "no body wanted to hear," and when Stevie stated once the new album comes out, we'll be forced to sit through and listen to a bunch of new songs we don't know. He was twisting his hands, got a twinkle in his eyes, as he just smiled. "Just this one time" we'll get to hear all the hits. I love Stevie. I really really do. Somehow Stevie blocked out The Dance tour, album and video where we heard all those same favorites they have played for the last 30 years. Macman, I agree. He was strong armed on this one. "He's the keeper of the peace" in this effort.

Completely, completely agree. His slight permagrin and constant twiddling of his thumbs showed just how thrilled he was to be there talking about this tour. Thinking about the money that's he's going to make just might be the only thing that puts him in his "happy place".

[Johnny Stew]

Somehow Stevie blocked out The Dance tour, album and video where we heard all those same favorites they have played for the last 30 years.
But even 'The Dance' featured four new ones that casual listeners had to "sit through." ;)

I honestly don't think Lindsey's being "strong-armed." I just think he's taking a slightly more relaxed attitude towards it all.

Stevie & Lindsey always clash over who's right and who's wrong, but maybe -- hopefully -- they're both trying to be adults this time, for the benefit of the band's future.

In the best of all possible worlds, that's going to benefit us too. Even if we do have to muddle through this "Hits" tour first!

[Hawkeye]

Well I can't get the video to play. If someone could be so kind and post it in "YouTube" form that would be awseome.

But from the quotes posted in writing I'm not quite as alarmed as some of you:


[
"We are not supporting a new album," Lindsey says. "We thought it would be very appropriate to go in and really just look at the body of work that we have and put together something that we would enjoy playing. And not put ourselves in the pressure of trying to redefine ourselves with new material."

"This is our life," she says. "These are our beautiful songs that we worked so hard on, that you love. And for this one time, we're going to play all this for you."

Lindsey is saying they're going back and looking at their body of work, their WHOLE body of work. There's just no pressure to play new stuff. And Stevie saying they're going to "bring back songs we know and love" implies that these are songs that have actually left! Unless she has total amneisia, she has to know that Dreams, GDW, Landslide, Rhiannon etc. have never left. So when she says bring back she has to be implying something in the vein of Sisters of the Moon.

I think we're getting a little "too" worked up over the whole hits thing. Its just a marketing tool to sell tickets. In reality I think it just boils down to, for the first time since the Mirage tour, Gypsy and Sara will be allowed to coexist in the same set, and thats the extent of it. Hell just simple math implies that they HAVE to play some rarities. You just take the SYW set subtract the 6 new songs and BAM. Now the variable of them singing Christine hits throws the whole equation off and Im really hoping thats not the case.

[michelej1]

Unless she has total amneisia, she has to know that Dreams, GDW, Landslide, Rhiannon etc. have never left.

Well, she does get total amnesia in some cases. Remember when she thought Landslide had been gone for 12 years?

Michele

[wondergirl9847]

LOL Stevie's (paraphrased) "You're gonna have to sit through those new songs when we make that new album." cracked me up because I'm so frustrated, I have to laugh. It shouldn't be that way. It p*sses me off that it's that way and that people get upset when they do new songs or rare stuff.

I want LB solo. I do NOT want this hits tour.[/whiney]

[Hawkeye]

Well, she does get total amnesia in some cases. Remember when she thought Landslide had been gone for 12 years?

Michele

Well I wouldn't call that total amnesia, just slight exageration. Landslide was not in her solo set for quite some time, about 7 years. In fact I'm proud to say I was at the very last Stevie Nicks show to date to not inclue Landslide :bigthumbsup: It was Cleveland June 25th 2005. Landslide replaced I Need to Know at the next show.

And I think we are all a little too worked up too. Just wait till the tour actually starts - It'll be fun reading all the gushing reviews from the same fans that complained about it in the beginning... Happens every time whether it's Stevie's tour or FM's tour...

[shackin'up]

I want LB solo. I do NOT want this hits tour.[/whiney]

Me neither. But let's look at it this way: Lindsey had his solokick. He wants to do a new FMalbum with less productional influence from his side, being a bandmate again. During touring he'll work on his digital device on freaky songs for a new solo in the future. I really think he's focused on doing more commercial Macmusic on tour AND in the studio later on.
We'll have both this way.

[TrueFaith77]

Plus that chemistry on stage. Nothing beats that.

Oh, I don't deny I'm going to gush. That's par for the course. But I'm going to complain then too. There is never going to be a point where I stop complaining. I enjoy complaining and it's not necessarily a measure of how much or little I like something.

It was 1990 when Stevie was saying she hadn't performed Landslide in 12 years. She might think she hasn't performed Dreams in 20 years. When she says she's bringing the songs everyone loves back, she may mean back from where FM left them in 2004, not that they're going to hit us with anything from 1979. Michele

Buried back inthe SYW era...

I remember reading somewhere/something on the Ledge about a cake given to Stevie. It was decorated with little tombstones....and on the tombstones were the names of the Stevie songs which were *retired*. I am probably off base, but was it in the Corey Buckingham tour commentary?

Anyhow...what are the songs that Stevie has retired?

Are they retired because she can't hit the high notes? Just curious.

BTW -- Thanks Macman for the info.

[mylittledemon]

THey look great. Stevie should do her hair like that more often.

I think Cory was talking about Destiny Rules, Silver Springs, Running Through the Garden, etc. songs that had been dropped from that particular SYW tour, not songs that Stevie doesn't sing in general.

Michele

[Johnny Stew]

It was 1990 when Stevie was saying she hadn't performed Landslide in 12 years.
She may have forgotten that they'd done it on the 'Mirage' tour.

In 2003/2004, she recalled Lindsey having left the band in 1982 after 'Mirage' -- so she may have some memory issues from that time period (which would coincide with Robin's death and Stevie's coke addiction becoming more serious).

[bikerchic]

Great clip! Thanks for posting that. The whole time I'm listening to it I'm thinking Sisters of the Moon, Sisters of the Moon, Sisters of the Moon! That along with Angel and Storms, I'm a happy camper :nod:

[danax6]

Fabulous hair. If she wears her hair like that the entire tour, I won't care about the setlist.

[Villavic]

they look good
ok, fine if they play the usual hits, but please include old songs never played live!!

STORMS
TANGO IN THE NIGHT
BIG LOVE (Tango style!!)
Affairs of the heart (with Lindsey touch, ha haaa

[marinnette]

I'm sooooo excited they look so excited they are gonna have an exciting tour and seeing each other so excited! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

ok. let's think about it. why setting up a tour now?
it just sounds weird to me, I mean, Lindsey hates going on touring and 45 shows are a lot! plus, he just finished his own solo tour. we also have to take into account that he wouldn't do that for merchandising and all this stuff.
why going on the road again when they don't have a new album?
do I have to say more? The answer is in the video. "read between the lines".
(maybe repeating a "the dance" situation-like??? this moment is very similar to the dance time.)

I'm totally with you, TrueFaith77. DRAAAAAMAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! :blob1:


P.S: since I live in the other side of the world, I hope you got me well informed when the tour starts pleeeeaaassseeee!
P.S: I MISS CHRISTINE SOOOO MUCH. the other day she appeared in my dreams. I was at the supermarket buying some frozen chips and looking for ice-creams in the refrigerator and she was there helping me. I wonder what would stevie say. :confused:

[shackin'up]

Anyone who has seen a SYW-show or a UTS or GOS-show and still says that Lindsey Hates touring is living in the past. The guy is LOVING it!

[SandyMac]

Wow, this is so exciting. It is so rare for them to sit together like that, just the two of them and talk to the camera/interviewer.

I LOVE Stevie's hair!

I so want SOTM to be in this set. I am sure most people do. I really hope Stevie knows that. Is SOTM even considered a hit though? I hear GYOW, Rhiannon, and Dreams more often than SOTM, but I am hopeful.

Don't they look like they could be prom Queen and King? :nod:
They definitely are rock royalty.

So, does this mean they will drop Bleed to Love Her, What's the World Coming To, Peacekeeper, Say You Will to make room for others like SOTM as mentioned above or what? My mind is just racing with all the possibilities. At least it should be longer than a typical Stevie set of 90 min.
Would love a 2 hour show.

Ok, I will ask ... Is Stevie wearing leather pants?

[marinnette]

yeeeeeaaaahhhh!! leather pants hoohohohohoho. she's playing hard.
I love her outfit in this video.

[danax6]

Anyone who has seen a SYW-show or a UTS or GOS-show and still says that Lindsey Hates touring is living in the past. The guy is LOVING it!For sure. But he probably has to tone it down a little or Your Highness will be whining about her thunder being stolen. So I'm not sure how much he will be enjoying this compared to his solo outings. Less, is my bet.

[CADreaming]

FINALLY we get some perspective...I mean, it is ALL about the hair...:laugh:

[michelej1]

It is. The hair contributed to me liking the SYW cover as much as I did, after all.

But didn't she say she can't curl her hair every night or it will fall out or something? I mean, I know she's grown about 50 new heads of hair since the Klonopin years, but I thought she said as a side effect of that, her hair is permanently delicate and grey.

If that's true, unless they are hair pieces, I can't see us getting curled hair for the whole tour, but maybe we'll get some rockin' duds. Michele

That is without a doubt a wig, or 90% extensions.

That is without a doubt a wig, or 90% extensions.

Well, darn it! Does that mean that at the end of Don't Stop this time around, if Lindsey wants to bury his face in her hair like he did last time, she's gonna be all: "Stand back, Stand back!"

I think she has the right to whine, since during the SYW tour Lindsey alienated Stevie about her stage clothes and that's why she wore that ugly cardigan, among other awful outfits. If Lindsey leaves Stevie alone about the clothes, then she shouldn't whine or complain.

Oh, please.
This is a hot button issue with me. That stupid cardigan.
She's a grown woman with a mind of her own. She wore the cardigan because either A-she wanted to, or B-she decided to take Lindsey's suggestion about toning down her wardrobe to the max and went with the librarian look over her usual stage clothes.
Lindsey didn't force her to wear squat. She could easily tell him to f*ck off and wear whatever she wanted. I'm sure it wouldn't be the first time.

She's a grown woman with a mind of her own. She wore the cardigan because either A-she wanted to, or B-she decided to take Lindsey's suggestion about toning down her wardrobe to the max and went with the librarian look over her usual stage clothes.
Lindsey didn't force her to wear squat. She could easily tell him to f*ck off and wear whatever she wanted. I'm sure it wouldn't be the first time.

Being that Lindsey is divisive and manipulating, and Stevie felt like the black sheep, she probably felt forced, but yes, she has her own mind, and she should've put her foot down.

[CADreaming]

That is without a doubt a wig, or 90% extensions.

Exactly what I thought, but I liked the curls.

THANK YOU!!!!!!! :thumbsup:

I guess you're on the Lindsey wagon too.

I guess you're on the Lindsey wagon too.


It's not about being on the Lindsey wagon at all.
I've always loved both.
But, I respect Stevie--for her intelligence and her gumption. She is not a blushing flower who buckles into the demands of a guy she had a relationship with umpteen years ago.
She is a drama queen, though. Especially in interviews (and, so, for that matter--is Lindsey). That cardigan thing was so ridiculous that I laughed when I originally read it, and then had to beat my head against the wall-time after time-when people take this quote as gospel and see Lindsey being some fashion dictator.

I know. She didn't dress like he wanted her to dress when they were dating. Why would she start doing it in 2003?!

Who knows what he said to her about her wardrobe -- if anything. She said he asked her if she couldn't just tone it down, so that automatically means he told her to run out and put on a granny sweater? If she hadn't been wearing Reeboks in her solo shows long before that, from that statement people would have assumed that Lindsey told her to wear those shoes too.

maybe she was going for that 80s way oer the top look she had between 89 and 92. if that was the case maybe L was right to tell her to tone it down. Knowing Stevie she went in the complete opposite direction as a kinda F u to L.

[MacMan]

I think the whole "old black dress" look that she went for in 2003 went right along with her pissy mood for most of the year.... Obviously she was out of wack and that mood just translated to her clothing... She looked like she didn't have the energy to put the effort in. But that's alright... She turned herself around...

Yes she sure did. The "Crystal Visions tour" was really like the "Stevie Nicks re-invention tour" in my mind...a complete 180.

[michelej1]

In the video Lindsey said, "this particular leg of the tour." So, he's still going on his next-leg-new-music agenda.

[SandyMac]

Very good observation. It was like the SYW tour was too tame for her or something. A person like Stevie can't stay toned down for too long or the earth might tilt off its axis. This woman is meant to rock out and and have lots of fun on stage. It is the natural order of things.

I hope someone from Stevie's camp or the powers that be are hearing that we want SOTM. We must all put our collective minds together and chant SOTM on this board. Maybe Stevie will channel the message and have a dream to put SOTM in the set.

Menopause? Post-menopause?

I have a strong feeling you are right. I recently went through a lot of the SYW photos on my computer and wow, it is like night and day difference between SYW tour and CV tour. The SYW tour was more of a shell of Stevie and only half there, but when she got through to the other side so to speak, wow, look out world... Stevie is back! I am sure she went through hell during that time. I mean going through that time in your life while touring and a hectic schedule? I give her a lot of credit for pulling herself back together and looking more fabulous.

[Johnny Stew]

Menopause? Post-menopause?

Yes, I thought it was well-understood among the fans that Stevie was going through menopause during the Say You Will tour, and that was reflected in her performances.

My mom and my aunts all went through it around the same time. The mood swings alone were vicious -- I'm kind of surprised that my male relatives and I survived. ;)

And I couldn't agree more with Regina, regarding the whole cardigan thing. I don't doubt that Lindsey asked Stevie to "tone things down," but we all know damn well that no one TELLS Stevie Nicks to do anything. That's one of the things I love about her.

[GoldDustOrphan]

Stevie seems more passionate - and lively - this time around.

You are killing me... that is so damn funny I can't stop laughing and my sides hurt from laughing so hard. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Thing is, I can tell there were some edits so I can only imagine what was said that was edited out. That interviewer probably went to the bathroom and cried her eyes out after being yelled at by Stevie and being on the receiving end of that deadly stare. Nobody messes with Stevie... never.

[marinnette]

so funny!!!

stevie's mafia gang!!!

anyway, I insist that if she really had such a bad time while on the SYW tour (for me it was a mix of: menopause, missing Christine and B/N syndrome..that's how I call "this thing" Stevie and Lindsey have) why going on the road again? I am sure all of you can remember at least a couple of whinings and complains about the tour, they are in video.
I think that she must have had a long talk with Lindsey, some guarantee it won't be the same...maybe their syndrome has gotten worse I mean...better...much deeper into the syndrome's fever :laugh:

I reivindicate SOTM too!!!!! (Mirage tour version is just...PERFECT. awesome performance, the chemistry among FM is sooo high that it's almost disturbing)

Or, she realized how much money she could make (a whole lot)

[SandyMac]

Yes, I wonder if Stevie did have a long talk with Lindsey over the phone.
In the clip she references a phone call about the tour, so maybe they got a few things settled and set straight. I would have loved to listen in on that phone conversation. :]

[Liza]

I saw FWM in NY and NJ early in 2003 on the SYW tour, and then again in London in December 2003 and Stevie's energy had definitely dipped. She looked unhappy and didn't want to be there, I assumed it was working with Lindsey again that made her so unhappy. I saw her again on a video the other day of the tour they did without Lindsey in UK and she was completely different. It was sad to see her so unhappy. Hope she gets over it for 2009!!!:nod:

[Regina]

Look, I love Stevie. I really do.
But, if you are making a whole bunch of money, you need to clam up about personal differences. Especially when the other party in these differences hardly says a word about troubles between the two of you.
In the average workplace (where you make anywhere from minimum wage to a fortune), you work with people you absolutely despise and you suck it up, unless there are legitimate beefs that prevent you from working.
Now, I know showbiz is not like that. But, she agreed to work with FM this time around and that implies a bit of a commitment to her own art and her audience. Last time, the menopause and a hip injury (I think that's part of what was going around last time as why she was not herself) was a reason not to be totally "on." (And, frankly, I never had a problem with any of the shows I went to, and I went to quite a few. I thought she was fabulous. My problem came a few years after with the woe is me-ing and the Lindsey is so mean stuff).
I'm sure everything will be just fine, or there won't be another leg of the tour. Or the "infighting" will be the hook to sucker us all into the FM melodrama this time around.

[Hawkeye]

Plus that chemistry on stage. Nothing beats that.

I agree, Lindsey has great chemistry with Neal and Brett and Stevie has awseome chemistry with Waddy!!!



Oh you meant Stevie and Lindsey :laugh:

[wondergirl9847]

I agree, Lindsey has great chemistry with Neal and Brett...

Hee! Yeah, I'm a shipper. I ship Lindsey with Brett/Neale. :thumbsup:

[Peestie]

Hee! Yeah, I'm a shipper. I ship Lindsey with Brett/Neale. :thumbsup:

They are the ultimate threesome :D Throw in Wally and there's four guys that just "belong together" :thumbsup::rolleyes:

Seriously though, I hope FM come together as a band or else I hope Lindsey just leaves to do solo work with the guys.

[StreetAngel86]

HOLY MC ****
they are HOT

sorry cant post more atm i had no idea this was on ET
i record every ep and havent watched all of this week's yet

fking WOAH

[Nico]

Oh you meant Stevie and Lindsey :laugh:

lol! To be honest, from what I saw from the last FM tour, and then seeing LB solo...he appears to actually have better chemistry with Brett and the other guys than Stevie. And it seems to be a genuinely positive mutual relationship, whereas SN and him always seems so up and down. One minute their sweet, the next minute they're bitchin', the minute later their defending one another, a few minutes after that they look like they're ready to cut each other up, ten seconds later...it's such a tempestuous relationship. But, hell, that has pretty much defined them.

And Lindsey does not look either comfortable nor like he even wants to be there in these TV interviews. They're mundane, yes, but he seems so jittery and is talking in an unusually loud voice.

But I like Stevie's hair & 'tude. It could be me insinuating drama, but I swear she threw some digs at the old man with the "not a stripper" (uh, didn't he-as she has told it- make her take her clothes off for the pic?) and then the Go Your Own Way thing (which is no biggie, but why that song?). Lindsey kinda just winces and then does some very weird forced smile thing. Honestly, he looks sedated for all the parts where he isn't wringing his hands and looking up at something on the ceiling.

[StreetAngel86]

Fabulous hair. If she wears her hair like that the entire tour, I won't care about the setlist.

ma gawd yes
me either
if they JUST perform SOTM and that was it
and she had that hair
and maybe wore pink
i would never ask for anything again

they look good
ok, fine if they play the usual hits, but please include old songs never played live!!

STORMS
TANGO IN THE NIGHT
BIG LOVE (Tango style!!)
Affairs of the heart (with Lindsey touch, ha haaa

how about JULIET Tango style ooooooooooh yah
that would rock hard!

ps - whoever said they looked like Rock Royalty is SO on!

wasn't her hip all fked up?
from that fall
i dont think this was menopause
since didnt she say that started during the Dance?
i think maybe she might have been able to deal with it? :thumbsup:

Thank you so much for posting the link! I didn't know they were going to be on, and so missed the show...

Stevie looks great, they both do...but seriously? This time they are only doing hits? This Time?? Seriously????? Ok, I'll stop... I am begining :p to think that Stevie really believes we don't want to hear new stuff in concert ... I am intrigued to see the setlist...I wonder if they will pull out any of the 'hits' they don't normally do? Seven Wonders, maybe? That would be awesome (and of course, Sisters goes without saying...) the original verision of Big Love? ( I do love the acoustic version, in fact better than I ever liked the 'original vs', but it would be interesting to hear it performed that way) or will it be basically Rumours a go-go??? And, as others have said, I am curious as to what they will do with Christine's songs...

let's see, shall we hazard a guess

The Chain
Dreams
Second Hand News
Rhiannon
ISA
GYOW

Lindsey kinda just winces and then does some very weird forced smile thing. Honestly, he looks sedated for all the parts where he isn't wringing his hands and looking up at something on the ceiling.

Stevie was probably thinking to herself, "No one wanted to hear GYOW then and I still don't want to hear it now!"

Well, I don't know if the stripper part was directed at him, but she does always say he was really angry with her and told her to stop being a child and this was art. I think she would have liked to tell the interviewer all of that, but Lindsey sitting there was kind of cramping her style.

Lindsey was acting weird in a major way, but I guess that's his way of being on good behavior. Of course, he couldn't get into his Sheryl Crow and "I told them not to coming knocking" nonsense that he usually engages in when he's alone. So, I imagine that's how he looks when he's trying restraining himself.

You're right. We all have people in our life who get on our LAST nerve (or maybe that's just me. LOL), and they make us tense and irritable. You do care and love them, but DANGIT, you want to strangle them sometimes too.

Then, you have people who you are calm and carefree around. There is no drama and it's alllll easy breezy. Sigh....

At the LB solo shows, it was almost TOO much of a love fest up there with those guys. LOL I'm kidding, but yeah, there's mutual respect, which....I'm not sure is there 100% with SnL.

[Nico]

I agree. I think Lindsey gets along REALLY well with Brett. But Brett is a sweetheart through and though: I really can't blame him.:nod:

[michelej1]

Yeah, I saw Lindsey and Brett hugging, um, quite a bit.

Is Brett the one Linds refers to as "versatile. . . in oh so many ways"?



:shocked:

[Phil]

Is it just me or has Stevie beefed up a treat? She certainly looks heavy in that jacket, especially when compared to her svelte appearance for the Soundstage show. Also, the hair is disgraceful in my opinion - the curls just look so old-hat Hollywood and of course, these are never advisable for an older, heavy-set lass.
If this tour is to truly represent the hits, then the following need to be included:

Over My Head
Say You Love Me
Don't Stop
You Make Lovin' Fun
Sara
Hold Me
Gypsy
Seven Wonders
Little Lies

These were amongst their biggest singles and so easily rank alongside the likes of Rhiannon, Go Your Own Way, Dreams, Tusk and Big Love.

Incidentally, I also would prefer to hear the full band version of Big Love at this stage - I know this would work well. It's interesting to me that the likes of Landslide, I'm So Afraid, Second Hand News, The Chain, Gold Dust Woman etc will all be trotted out but technically, they were never singles (ie hits).

I think Stevie and Lindsey should also consider performing Think About Me because despite not being one of Christine's bigger hits, it was a truly memorable single.

Also, it seems obvious to me that out of all Christine's songs, Stevie would choose to do Oh Daddy more than any other so I wonder if this will be attempted? Of course, this was never a single or a hit but it was part of Rumours and that seems to be the reason behind including some of the aforementioned tracks.

[StreetAngel86]
