If you could ask Mick Fleetwood ONE question, what would you ask?

[vivfox]

And if he absolutely had to be honest:

Of all the musicians/singers that you have had in Fleetwood Mac, which ones do you wish were in the current band today?

I would say:


Why were you being a lil b*tch about "Silver Springs"?--P.S.--I love you Mick Fleetwood. For some reason, I am strongly attracted to you and your British accent and I'll be your baby momma....well, an additional baby momma.

[tr1]

I would ask him what the balls are for, where they originated and their meaning.
And how he decided on the drum beat for "Go Your Own Way" and why he doesn't use a lot of hi-hat on the Tusk album.

I bet Stevie was all about the accent. She just closed her eyes and thought about Cary Grant.

For some reason, Stevie and Mick together is very pleasant to me. He seems like the type that would be very romantic in bed, which is something that most men have lost these days. He seems very gentle. I love me some Mick.

Read his book-- he talks about the balls there. I will find the passage tomorrow if you'd like. It basically stemmed from the band's extreme vulgarity on stage in the Peter Green days. He recieved the wooden balls as a gift (Jenny Boyd, maybe?) and they are the same pair he wears today.


Well, I've met Mick and I asked him a lot of questions on that night. This will take some thinking!

The thought of Stevie and Mick scares me. But you make a good point about the romance based on the gallant way he acts on stage. He sometimes has courtly, loving gestures and I wouldn't be surprised if he does bring a certain flourish to romance.

[fleetwoodtrick]

If he really is a drumming Santa Clause like my aunt keeps trying to convince me.

[Dodfather]

I'd ask him: 'Mick: how many balls do you have?'

Wasen't one of the stories about the wooden balls... was that when he lived in England a long time ago, he lived several stories high in this building... and he would tie his wooden balls to his door key and throw the keys and balls out the window... to let people in the building so he would not have to run down the stairs to let them in the building??? I heard something to that effect years ago about the wooden balls...

to me it is the exact opposite.


and I can't just have ONE question for my favorite drummer ever!!
anyway...questionS for Mick

what was your first drum set like?
at what point in your life did you say "ah, I can never go back to a regular job now"?
why are your toms set up backwards?
will you give me lessons? (to which he'd reply.."you have much to learn, grasshopper")

[The Chain]

What did/do you really think of the Tusk album?

[jbrownsjr]

How many times did you want bitch slap Lindsey?

[brysondt]

How many times did you want bitch slap Lindsey?

HAHAHAHAHAHA--Love this question!

[aleuzzi]

What is the real story behind the whole Clifford Davis-Fake Mac affair? I'm sensing the actual events and motivations behind the actions are more complex than have been presented.

[Villavic]

And if he absolutely had to be honest:

Though he loves Peter, I think he knows Peter wouldn't fit in the current lineup today, so I guess his answer would be Christine McVie, for obvious reasons.

And I would ask..
Ok since you are a fan of releasing new FM material, when will you edit the new Fleetwood Mac - the 80s decade documentary DVD? It would be cool to know about the making of Mirage and Tango, and their tours.

[Dodfather]

Is this an actual documentary or just something you'd like to see? If it's something unofficial that Mick needs to finish and release then is there any of it floating around? I agree...I'd LOVE to see more about Mirage and Tango. These albums are always neglected in that we don't ever hear much about them apart from the fact that Lindsey left the band in acrimonious circumstances after Tango. I've never seen any stuido footage of Tango, is there much out there?

[Black_Moon]

How come everyone is attracted to your British accent and not mine? :(

[Dodfather]

Hahahaha!! Brilliant question! Nowt wrong wi' a Northern accent!

[Black_Moon]

Oh God, you have it down perfectly too. :lol:

[gypsy4life]

I would ask...Would you have liked to marry Stevie?

[Dodfather]

Oh God, you have it down perfectly too. :lol:

Ach, thon's nuthin...ye shid hear the broad Doric in pairts o' Aiberdeen. It's awfy...fowk divnae hae a clue fit ithers are sayin'!

something I'd like to see. There is no old doc from those days, but they could produce and give interviews (like the Making of Rumours, 1997) about those days, plus videos, footages, if there are. One "new" thing that can be covered, never before because there were little v.clips productions, would be comments about the making of Gypsy, Little Lies, Everywhere, Big Love and Seven Wonder videos.

[michelej1]

Yes, we did get limited footage about the making of Big Love and Gypsy and obviously there is more of that somewhere. We'd love to have it.

Yes!!! This would be awesome!

[snoot]

Same as posted for Christine (and speaking of balls): Did you or did you not participate in the discussion and/or decision to diss Bob Welch when it came to his inclusion in the HOF for FM? Not that I give a rat's ass about the HOF or the clowns who run it, but the part that pertains to Bob's exclusion I do. :mad:

Read his book. The first two questions are answered!

[sjpdg]

If I could ask Mick any question in the world, I think I would ask him the following:

Is there every any kind of chance in the world that Peter Green will ever record or perform with the MFBB?

If I couldn't ask him that, then I'd ask him: Would you be so kind as to give me a drum lesson?

[David]

If I couldn't ask him that, then I'd ask him: Would you be so kind as to give me a drum lesson?Do you guys remember several years ago when Mick's Web site was selling something or other (a home stereo system or electronic drum pads, I think)? There was a contest on to see who would get to take a private one-hour lesson with Mick Fleetwood.

But we never heard who won that contest, or what happened during the lesson.

I missed that, but certainly would have entered had I known about it.:distress:

Wasn't he selling some kind of drum track computer program a few years ago also? Or was this the same thing?

[sjpdg]

Ok. I wasn't going to ask this question, but then decided, "What the hell! Why not?!"

If I could ask Mick any question I wanted, (and if I had the courage to actually ask it), I would want to know:

Was Stevie good in bed?

There! I asked! I know a lot of the men on this forum have been thinking it! Don't deny it because you know you want to know!

(I mean no disrespect to Stevie in any way, shape or form. I think she is a wonderful human being, a beautiful woman (always has been), and still sexy.)

I think on one of Mick's videos from MymickTv...he said his original pair broke...so he must have got new ones made up or something!!Lol!

Addendum: Does Stevie have a signature "move"? :p

Another great one!!:nod:

Joe Cocker fan I take it??

[~GoldDustWoman~]

I would ask him, why the faces?...and are you really fueled by beer? lol I remember someone saying that on youtube about him drinking beer while drumming and even having someone give it to him so he could keep playing. then again i saw that at crue fest!

[Black_Moon]

I just like 9 1/2 Weeks, and that song. And the pun seemed to write itself. :lol:

That's from the Mirage video! He was fueled by many beers that night.

Just how many digits are you looking to have in your bank account balance you beautiful money grabbing genius?

Thats the dream question though. In reality, the question would probably be along the lines of.."So, am, whats your favourite colour??"
