2013 Video Interviews

Y'all can move it if you want, but I think they get lost in the articles thread. :)

These are too good not to post. The raw Access Hollywood footage:

I can't see anything.

I can't see anything.

Michele

You can't see the videos? I had that problem earlier on the iPad. I think it has to do with the flash thing. Had to move to the laptop to view.:shrug:

[johnnystorms]

nothing for me but white boxes

[vivfox]

I can see them all.

[WildHearted]

I can see them, but there's parts of the coding that 'hang off' the edge.

I tried to edit the post and fix it, but it does the same thing when I try to paste the embed code as well. It must be an issue with the coding itself or either it's just not fully compatible with the forum for whatever reason.

Here are links for those who can't see:

[CADreaming]

^Thanks, Wildhearted!

[WildHearted]

I thoroughly enjoyed these videos. It was nice seeing the GYOW chat in its entirety, without all of the chopping. Funny that Stevie loves performing the song now.

The "royal we" :lol:

[Villavic]

nothing for me but white boxes

Mee too in my Windows 7 laptop, using IE. Try Chrome, I could watch them thru the Chrome browser.

[Villavic]

I found a bit boring to hear again about how Mick met them, the Keith Olsen studio episode, Stevie listening all albums (using the same phrases from ohter interviews and videos). But I think many people still don't know about the Fleetwood Mac history.

Then when he asked about GYOW I thought.. Oh my God.. not agaaaaain... Why doesn't he ask about Big Love.. Who is Diane? Who is Caroline? or more details of the Tusk song??

BUT...!!!

when he asked about the Packing up Shacking up's segment... when Stevie said (so serious with those dark but also sarcastic eyes to Lindsey) Very Very Funny.. I reeeeally laugh a lot!!! And the laughs in the room!!! Everything was perfect that moment!! Good for them!!!! :thumbsup:

And those Stevie faces!!! Look!


Very very funny, said Stevie. And that Lindsey guilty smile. They rock!!!

Everybody laughed at this moment:

[CADreaming]

^Great screen caps! :)

I actually enjoyed the retelling of their joining FM. Not sure I've ever seen them tell it together.

I also really dig these vids for the realness. It feels more like I'm sitting there asking questions and they're telling me the 100 stories. It's so much better than the sensationalized snippets we get on the actual entertainment news shows. Plus, you see at this point the holding of hands had nothing to do with Mick's comments about them. It was more natural. Unique interviews.

[WildHearted]

I actually enjoyed the 'Packin' up, shackin' up' discussion because I can't recall ever hearing them talk about it together. When she's alone, we've heard Stevie say that it was a bunch of crap and that Lindsey was just mad at her etc.

Now with him sitting there, she actually seems to own up to it in her own way: "Well, you know, the thing was, I wasn't happy. I just wasn't happy. I was not.. I didn't look at it.. I was looking for some kind of peace because Lindsey and I were in so much turmoil."

[FierySequences]

Thx for posting CADreaming and WildHeart.

I admit I welled up a lil when SN was talking Barbara and the process that LB went threw to see "things through her eyes".

LB's expression to her describing this offered a tender, mature glimpse into the gentle man that LB has become. Beautiful, as I'm sure WY will be.

I interpreted it a little differently, I think she was just comparing their different ways of being angry and lashing out at each other, saying that it manifested in different ways (GYOW vs Dreams) but at the heart of it was the same thing. I'm not sure she's ceding that she was shacking up with anyone, more that she's trying to say she wasn't all that different from Lindsey in that they were both angry in their songs.

Well, she said all of that directly after saying this. So I could see how you could interpret it that way. But the way I saw it, it seemed like she was almost defending herself - at one point she started to say "I didn't look at..." as if she didn't look at it as shacking up, packing up, just that she was trying to - like she said - find some sort of peace somewhere.

I would really like for those skinny jeans to go away. They are not cultivating a -- well, I don't know what he thinks his image is, but I doubt he wants it to be what those jeans present. Maybe he does. This is the same guy who wore sandals with socks, so . . .

he's probably just attempting to be current...and a narrow silhouette in jeans and pants is current and fashionable in 2013...just like bell bottoms were in 1977. Same thing, really. The socks and sandals is entirely another story.

But aren't narrow jeans more popular for women than for men? Next thing I know, he'll be wearing jeggings.

He practically IS wearing jeggings. When we saw him in Baltimore last summer my son's comment was "I didn't expect he'd be wearing tights". He was wearing those really tight jeans thar have a lot of elastic in them on stage (and just regular jeans fot m&gs afterwards). Regular jeans looked so much better than those stupid elasticized ones.

But I don't think he's trying to be trendy - he was wearing practically the same skinny jeans since at least 1992. The plus of that is that he doesnt look dated when you watch his 1993 shows unlike most of the people who were with on the stage at the time (well if you don't count the big non-fitted jacket ;) ).

[CADreaming]

^Hmmm, no I don't think '92. Seems like this particular style has been more recent. I think the SYW jeans were just regular old jeans.

And, are we really having this discussion?? LOL!

You are right re syw jeans looking nice and normal.

I'd also like to see Stevie make some changes. I love her but, damn, I'm tired of seeing her in the same thing all the time. I like that she is appearing in pants more - I think it would be cute for her to wear pants and her boots with a (something other than black) top. And really, it is time to cut some of that hair off. Maybe shoulder length?

yeah it's like the 2 of them decided to wear these stage uniforms and not change them for decades. i don't get how they are not bored wearing the same thing over and over again.

[WildHearted]

Well, I understand it being easier. If you know it looks decent and it matches etc, it's a lot less of a hassle to just wear the same thing every night instead of having to plan what you're going to wear.

Basically they are lazy. :lol: I can relate because I'm the same way, though I don't wear just ONE outfit (I have several that I just rotate lmao) and I also don't perform for thousands of people.

[Lilyfan]

It's a mystery. :rolleyes:

Well, Stevie has a few different outfits, at least. I'm not asking Lindsey to change during the show. All he has to do is CHANGE HIS SHIRT every couple of nights. Why is he against that? When the guy on SNL imitated him and Lindsey said, 'wow, he even had my costume right' it crushed a little piece of me inside every time. Why make a t-shirt your "costume" for a year?

Well, at least we will be getting a new colored shirt in April. And I hope it's one everyone likes, because we will be living with it for awhile.

Lindsey, NO on mustard yellow. You know we want blue.

The band will keep working on new tracks, Stevie Nicks says, 'If the world does want more music from us'

Fleetwood Mac has some new songs to share -- and the band will make more, if fans demand it.

With the classic rockers set to hit the road this spring for their first tour since 2009, the band will play some fresh material, but they're not ready to bow a new album.

"Big, long albums don't see to be what everybody wants these days," Stevie Nicks tells Billboard, noting the extensive promotion she did for 2011 solo set "In Your Dreams." "So we thought, well, let's go the other route, because Lindsey [Buckingham] was adamant that we have some new product."

The group is looking to fit three new songs into the set list, following successful recording sessions at Buckingham's home, with a digital release for the tracks also planned.

Fleetwood Mac Unveil 2013 Tour Dates

"Two of them are ones that we cut with John [McVie] and Mick [Fleetwood], and when Stevie got off the road, she came over to my house and sang on those," Buckingham says. "We had the best time we'd had in years, doing that."

"[Let's] see if the world does want more music from us," Nicks adds. "If we get that back, if we get that feeling, that they do want another 10 songs, we can reassess."

But with the band's iconic "Rumours" celebrating its 35th birthday with a reissue earlier this year, fans can expect the group to devote plenty of attention on the road to its many hits.

"We play a body of songs that people have to hear," Fleetwood says.

[bombaysaffires]

bless you, Lindsey

[michelej1]

When Mick says they've made strategic mistakes in the past, does he only mean that one time they played too many new songs??

I'd like to hear his list of mistakes. I'm sure we could add to it substantially.

At this point, I don't even believe they think the audience would react badly to new songs. It's a crock.

I know how to save videos to my computer, but is anyone else using another way to store these? Are you just keeping a file of saved videos or downloading them to CDs or what? I wish this was more manageable.

Stevie: "He had trepidation. He was trepidated out."

:laugh:

[michelej1]

Just getting around to putting these videos on my hard drive:

Yes, the groundswell of fans BN found in Alabama was bizarre. It was probably made up of aliens.

She was working at the Copper Penny and a french restaurant.

Lindsey has said he listened to the FM songs too (although maybe not back to front) and he said he wasn't as impressed as Stevie was. It's not like he didn't listen at all.

Mick's reaction to learning Stevie told Lindsey they'd join FM for six months and make money and then leave, "then we're out of there," was pretty funny.

Honestly, if people are drinking, it only makes sense they would go to the bathroom during a new song rather than during a hit.:shrug:

Honestly, if people are drinking, it only makes sense they would go to the bathroom during a new song rather than during a hit.:shrug:


I see people do that all the time. Sometimes they will prepare to go to the bathroom or the bar and they will hear the strains of a familiar tune and run back to their seats. I saw plenty of people go to the bathroom during Come, but it doesn't mean the whole show is ruined. It's not like they're going to get booed off the stage like they did over 35 years ago.

Plus, if the song is fast and sounds like a dance song, people tend to stay around to hear it, even if they don't know it. There is a way to weave in new songs without it heralding disaster as it did in the band's medieval days.

Michele

[Lilyfan]

I'm happy when Stevie wears pants. That's my only outfitwish.

Me too, I like it when she wears pants, boots, and a fancy jacket. I don't even mind the top hat - it's cute sometimes. But I am tired of the "uniform" attitude towards their clothes. The outfits should be as fun as the music. I think when they wear the same thing every time, it becomes boring.

Hey, we're not aliens :D We just really love acoustic guitar and harmonies. Two-part, three-part, four-part - it's all good. Even ones like this:

Exactly right! And out of the more than 100 million people who self-identify as Southerners we have some damn fine musicians and singers too. :xoxo:

ah. i thought she quoted various statements from the most recent video in her post? (didn't watch the video so idk)

Not that part I think. Just the groundswell part.

Lindsey commented that it was bizarre how this groundswell of support just broke out for them in Alabama. I think it's bizarre as well. One state in the nation:distress:. There might have been an alien invasion there is my guess. Pods or something. You didn't see us loving BN in Michigan, now did ya?

It got massive radio play in Birmingham so everyone heard the music. That's your answer. :xoxo:

Yeah, it was more than just Birmingham. Like Lindsey said, it was in certain pockets of the South. It was getting airplay in Atlanta too.

This whole "no one wants full albums anymore" schtick is really getting old (not to mention it's a bunch of bs).

Lindsey: "You see Stevie and me, probably in a better place than we have been in..."
Stevie: "Ever."
Lindsey: "A long time."

:lol:

[michelej1]

I guess I had imagined that Lindseys studio was in his guest house and not underground. Well, he can go there in case of an air strike -- or meteor.

it's under his garage if i remember correctly. you can see him going down the stairs carrying guitar while One Take is blasting in one of his SWS promo videos

Yes, I was reacting to Stevie saying it was under his garage, hence a bunker.

here 00:37-00:41 he's crossing the backyard (or frontyard or wherever it is?) and going to his "bunker" :D - http://lindseybuckingham.com/media/videos/12501/16501

Thank you.

Yes! I mean, HOW MANY gazillion albums... ALBUMS not singles..did Adele sell ???

People want GOOD albums,and there just aren't that many out there any more.

Does anyone know the sales figures for the Say You Will album? I mean, how bad were they??

[WildHearted]

Not sure on exact numbers, but I know it went gold so it's sold at least 500,000 in the US. That certification was back in 2003. And it debuted in the top 3.

It's not outstanding or anything, but it's not like the album completely tanked. But I guess compared to what they were used to selling, it may have seemed like it bombed...

[I'msoAfraid95]

Skinny jeans look bad on any man, but they look horrible on a 63 y/o man.
I'm beginning to think that Lindsey only owns maybe 3 or 5 shirts and jeans each.

[I'msoAfraid95]

Amen to that! :D

Hey Michele,

Do yo think Lindsey took a peek into Stevie's journal? :nod:

Deborah

[michelej1]

Hey Michele,

Do yo think Lindsey took a peek into Stevie's journal? :nod:

Deborah

Wow, can you imagine how much Lindsey has heard about those journals over the last 40 years?

Michele

[Lilyfan]

Wow, can you imagine how much Lindsey has heard about those journals over the last 40 years?

Michele

Well, she probably does keep them in a vault now. That's why LB is always complaining that she's not bringing anything "new". I think that if she fell asleep during a recording session, the temptation might be too great to resist. That's why it surprised me so much when she said she gave one of her journals to Dave Stewart to read.

I doubt that the raw prose holds much interest for Lindsey. Just the demos.

Michele

[Lilyfan]

Michele

Oh, I think he would be very interested. She puts everything in those journals. They are basically her version of "Dear Diary". :nod:

[vivfox]

Stevie: I worked really hard for two years promoting my album of 14 songs.It was tiring. And Fleetwood Mac would never do that much press.

Oh please.:p

[vivfox]

It's not like they're going to get booed off the stage like they did over 35 years ago.Plus, if the song is fast and sounds like a dance song, people tend to stay around to hear it, even if they don't know it. There is a way to weave in new songs without it heralding disaster as it did in the band's medieval days.


Michele, I have thoroughly enjoyed your sense of humor through all this new tour press. There was a time you seemed too serious but I think David brought out your inner sense of humor and now it's raining down for all to enjoy. I thank you for making me laugh and laugh and laugh, even when it concerns me. Like when you said, "Viv, you are falling apart before my very eyes."

[elle]

Oh, I think he would be very interested. She puts everything in those journals. They are basically her version of "Dear Diary". :nod:

she said that when she gave a journal to DS he actually read through it to her utter surprise - because Lindsey never cared to when she'd do the same.

[michelej1]

I think Lindsey hears enough from her that he's not hunting down journals to read more. Life is finite.

Michele

[WildHearted]

I think Lindsey hears enough from her that he's not hunting down journals to read more. Life is finite.

Michele

:lol: I was just about to say... he's spent how many years listening to her talk about herself? I can't fathom him ever wanting to read what she's written about herself, too.

[Lilyfan]

she said that when she gave a journal to DS he actually read through it to her utter surprise - because Lindsey never cared to when she'd do the same.

That's interesting. I didn't know that he wasn't interested. hmmmm, I'm going to have to look through those lyrics again...

[Lilyfan]

I think Lindsey hears enough from her that he's not hunting down journals to read more. Life is finite.

Michele

I wasn't thinking of it those terms. I was thinking of it in terms of he knows that she writes about him constantly. I would think that he would be curious to see what she has written about him recently. I wasn't thinking in terms of her day to day stuff or song lyrics. :o

[WildHearted]

That's interesting. I didn't know that he wasn't interested. hmmmm, I'm going to have to look through those lyrics again...

Well, I don't think she actually meant that she tried to give that specific book of poems to Lindsey and he didn't want to read them. I think it was more of a hypothetical - Lindsey never would have read them if she had given them to him... I mean, he never read what she wrote to him on her Bella Donna album, afterall... :lol:

[CADreaming]

You know, even when Stevie was pretending to be Lindsey, "Yes, Stevie, Rhiannon is a very pretty name," I got the feeling that she was spot on in capturing the humoring nature of his tone and think his genuine interest in those kind of musings from her is limited.

It's like Stevie saying if she had to read Mick's book, she'd do it with a big red pen making corrections all along the way. I imagine reading Stevie's journals would be a headbanging experience for anyone who might actually figure in those journals and have a quite different perspective on the stuff inside of them.

Michele

[bombaysaffires]

I didn't think Stevie gave Dave S her actual journals to read, but rather a book of her "poems"....

another piece of the interview from that same day aired on VH1 i guess today:

Fleetwood Mac Kiss And Make Up…For Now
by Bené Viera

Fleetwood Mac‘s drama almost matches its number of hits. The hookups, breakups and cocaine eventually crumbled the band that produced the iconic Rumours. Thirty-five years later the trio are laying aside the bad blood to hit the road.

A Fleetwood Mac reunion is happening, folks. The rumors are true. VH1 News chatted with the group about what’s different this time. “We were prevailing as a group under the worst personal circumstances,” said Lindsey Buckingham. Drama will no longer affect the music. It’s all about putting on a show for the fans. On April 4 the tour begins. Either this lovefest will make for an amazing chemistry on stage or the old demons that once haunted the band will arise again leaving for interesting headlines.
