I have a question, are there specific little mannerisms that the Rumours line-up of FM have? You know, like consistent chewing of bubble gum, knuckle popping, saying a particular adjective more than others (like I had a science teacher who thought that everything in the world was "intriguing") so basically, does any of them have little quirks that if one was to write any sort of fiction involving them they could add to make the characters more believable.
Thanks

The only thing I can think of is stage mannerisms......if you are talking about everyday mannerisms.....I have no idea.....I suppose I just have not spent enough time "hanging out" with the band......LOL....:laugh:

OMG!!! The first time I heard this, I just died laughing:laugh:
That is classic, it should definitely be included:nod:

The only other thing I can really think of is Stevie always saying "you know", which just cracks me up. Also, maybe I'm the only one who thinks this, but she's says "bummed" a lot too. I've just noticed it recently:) I know, I need to get a life:o

Either works, because I want to write them in both situations.
Thanks for the above suggestions guys!

Lindsey does speak when he is in public on an endless loop of about 25 words. I have heard alot of people say he is painfully shy. God, I hope he has a more interesting vocabulary in his real life. I'm sure he is much more deep than the impression he gives. We all know he is a genius!

Stevie doesn't come off as the sharpest tool in the shed either. She speaks with alot of "ums" and "you knows", and she repeats herself alot, but like Lindsey, I'm sure she is much more intelligent than she sounds. She couldn't concoct such beautiful dreamscapes if she didn't have a substantial mind.

I think both of them express themseleves much better with music than with words, anyway. I just try and remember that when I am schlogging through some interview full of the same old stuff! lol!!

If you read too many Lindsey interviews in a row, they all run together!

Christine comes off as very flat and uninterested in what she is doing, like maybe she would rather be somewhere else. Again, I don't think that impression is correct either, except for maybe during the Dance Tour! lol!! She may be the wittiest one of them all when no press are around.

Mick is just all over the place, and he is the only one of them that I think what you see is what you get. He strikes me as just being right up front and in your face with everything, good or bad!

John, well you know what they say about still waters.....maybe he is the "thinker" of the bunch!

Just my observations!

Oh, and one more thing about Lindsey...he purses his lips alot. like he is nervous, but it is cute as hell!

Stevie bites her lip alot too.

Stevie says "fabulous" and "whatever" a lot.

Other than that, I can't think of anything! :shrug: :)

Lindsey: "Up and Down the Ge...tar
and I always had to fight... the things
that were wrong...for the things that
were RIGHT!" Lindsey is always proving
himself! Hope he learns to relax a little!;)

Don't forget Lindsey going... in CYCLES!
I pray he is on a good one now!!! Sky:)

Well, there's a few that I know of:

Stevie playing with her microphone streamers.
Christine doing this double bounce while playing songs.
Lindsey kind of scrunching his head down and to the side as he plays the guitar.
Lindsey being kind of stiff and robotic too, doing his little leg dance a lot.
Stevie says "Well" a lot before lines in songs.
Mick makes all kinds of faces.
Other Stevie catch phrases: "Wonderful" "Kind of..." and many others that I just can't think of right now.
And then there was John...
