My favorite things about Johnny:

1. He's the only one in the band with enough sense to be a republican! :thumbsup: Right on, Johnny!!
2. His bass playing is smooth, strong, but not overwhelming. At times, you almost don't even realize that you are hearing it, but when its taken away, the songs sound completely naked.
3. The way he can jam in a concert-- think of Not That Funny and I'm So Afraid. Classics.
4. How even though he's never really seemed to acquire a really huge fanbase, he does not seem to let it bother him. So what? Lindsey and Stevie get all the publicity. He knows that he's the man, and he shows no jealousy. I like that too! :) :thumbsup:
5. He's stayed with the band through highs and lows. He's been there since the beginning, he's seen at least a dozen and a half lineup changes, and still he's there rocking. Lindsey quits, no big deal. Peter walks out, so what? Christine throws in the towel, what's your point? But if we lost John, I bet the band wouldn't exist.
6. I still think it was his idea to add I Know I'm Not Wrong, Sara, Red Rover, and all those other great songs that we all loved into the setlist. Its not like any of the other 3 ever actually think about what their FANS want.....!
7. And finally-- he's going to be the first of the fireflies to do a Q and A! This clearly shows that he loves us! :D

WAY TO BE JOHN MCVIE!

His outstanding talent will allow me to forgive him that. :wavey:

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Indeed.

Another thing that occurred to me today about the general coolness of our John is this...
EVERY time I've seen the Mac live, when the point comes in the show where the individual
band members are introduced, John has ALWAYS got the LOUDEST audience response/reaction.
He is truly loved by his fans and apparently the feeling is mutual, hence the upcoming Q&A!
PS-ANOTHER thing I just noticed...when referring to the band in an abbreviated way notice how
it's always the MAC and NEVER the Fleetwood...:)

I want someone to ask him if he still is one...I mean, c'mon, how could he still be?
