Not sure what this is all about... The only info is that the colour photo is from May 8th and the black and white photo is from May 9th. Posted to Peter Mayes instagram account.

there are 3 photos. here are the captions:

May 8 "spent the day with one of my heroes Lindsay Buckingham.
I wish all superstars were this cool."

May 9 "Lindsay Buckingham in the studio again today"

and the last one "Happy times with Lindsay Buckingham and Empire Of The Sun"


[photos and captions are great, the only thing is, his hero's name is spelled Lindsey]

Love the one of him on the sofa listening, figuring out what riff to play in response in his head.

Michele

yes. he looks so content.

Another picture! :thumbsup:

thanks for sharing!

maybe EOTS are actually working on a new album now? in this RS article it seemed to have been unclear few months ago http://www.rollingstone.com/music/ne...table-20140408

or maybe LB was just over there jamming and hanging out. who knows.

I just watched some of their music videos. I wasn't familiar with them. There is a definite influence there.

One pic has as text: LB, will buckingham and EOTS

Is that William on his left side? ( for us right)

Could it be one of his favorite bands?

relaxed and content
 

Yeah, that looks like Will on his left.

here's the pic -

somehow i doubt that.

there was also a comment on one of the instagrams that this happened for Nick Littlemore's bday, so who knows.

is it me or does Linds just look so much smaller these days?? In the old days (70s for sure) he seemed like such a big guy-- not husky but TALL… he'd stand next to Mick and not seem much shorter and Mick is well over 6 feet. Maybe it was all that hair then, and his platform sandals and all? But even in the Tusk era, with the hair shorn off, he still seemed tall. Nowadays he seems much shorter and even in this pic it's like his shoulders seem small and perhaps even a little frail. If that's his son on his left, the kid looks a lot bigger than LB. Ah, age gets us all.

Lindsey's shoulders are a problem. The concave, sunken aspect ages him, in still photos like this. In concert when he's moving around, it's not an issue. His shoulders are older than 64.

Michele

He's a pretty average-height but very thin man. In person he seems so much smaller in every way. But I say average height because he has sort of a little slouch/stoop that might make him seem shorter. But I'm pretty certain his son is larger than him. And even when Linds was younger and on the swim team, he may have been more buff than now but he was still a pretty slender guy.

Will must take after Lindsey's dad. I've seen pics of him and he seemed more large/buff. Well, more than Lindsey for sure. :nod:

Lindsey has man boobs, that's why he always wears a jacket. Don't get me wrong though, I love him. Boobs and all.

He'll often slip off the jacket and appear in a t-shirt and I have never noticed any breasts.

Michele

It caught me off guard one time when he didn't have a jacket on. This was probably a year ago. So I just started keeping an eye on any pics of him that came up. In every photo, he has a jacket on. I noticed it again when watching the video of him with his dogs, on his bed. You can see it a bit there. It's not a bad thing at all, and doesn't change my thoughts of him at all (I would not be offended if he arrived naked in my bedroom, for instance), but I started wondering if that was why he ALWAYS wears a jacket.

yeah, he used to always take off his jacket for the encores during his solo shows. not so the last 2 tours (except that one time in Seattle when he was in a t-shirt the whole show (really skinny!). so i was wondering the same - what's with the jacket, and people kept yelling at shows to take it off, and he'd throw back remarks about sweating even naked.

i'm assuming this is what you are referring to:
:D

You're right, I had exactly the same thought on why he sweats to death but leaves the jacket on. I think it must be an aging thing, I've noticed it on other once-buff older men.

What I noticed is his stomach when his t-shirt comes up. His stomach is not fat by any means, but it's a little more fleshy than you'd expect, since he's small and so active. But I guess he doesn't do any ab exercises. As for breasts, it doesn't look to me like I could pinch an inch.

Michele

Hahaha - I love it!

hey Nico - long time no see!! :wavey:

yeah he's average height, about 5'10"-5'11" maybe, but a pretty tiny, skinny guy. he seems in a really good shape, but unlike many younger guys i can't imagine he'd be doing something like lifting weights - which his kid might easily be doing.

Hey girl! I miss this place. I feel like I need to catch up with all the new FM activity...

I remember Vanessa Carlton thanked Lindsey on her one album and mentioned something about him being a yogi. So perhaps that is one of his exercises of choice, aside from swimming and being a complete non-stop machine on stage. So he has that long/leaner physique that I always associate with people who do yoga and/or swim.

loved this. like, you know, if he just HAPPENED to be walking past my bedroom nekkid and decided to pop in…

Well, quite.

Probably not playing football, basketball or surfing like the kid either, lol. Keep that walking up, Lindsey! :D

As for the tummy pudge and boobs? Totally endearing, though I never thought this shirt enhanced the breastage particularly well. :laugh:

http://i1312.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8c6fa539.jpg

Casual wear makes it more noticable, I should think, in some ways.

(and yes, the gif and last image were from publicly accessible Vine accounts - I'm not betraying privacy or anything, fwiw)

:] thank you!! Wouldn't that be crazy, but fun!!!! My husband may disagree however..................:laugh:

ok that red shirt is just the worst.. it looks like a woman's top, with some sort of empire waist --the way it tucks in just under the breasteses is awful. Burn it. Now.

It does fit like a nightgown in that particular photo. The way the sweat makes it cling there is unfortunate. But overall, I don't think it was bad. It's just a normal t=shirt, no special cut and no tailored waist or bodice:laugh: . The only bad part was that he wore it the whole tour and considered it a "costume" (as revealed when he talked about SNL). It would have been nice if he had switched up.

Michele

Ok I will admit these visuals aren't the most flattering of Linds, but I feel like it's all relative in photograph. Lindsey is such an angular, small-built guy that any extra pound is probably noticeable- particularly when he chooses to wear these basic-looking, loose-fitting/non-fitted items. I have expressed for years how I feel about his fashion choices. Shoot, I even made a thread on it somewhere (though most of my little pictures disappeared).

I feel deeply that Lindsey is such a singular, epic talent that his looks and/or style are so superfluous to what matters most. But the fact that he's such a handsome guy and could do SO much better in his outfit choices but seems to have an undying affection for Hanes, well, I get a little sad.

Bruce Springsteen is the same age as him and Bruce just gets it with his style. But you can't win them all I guess...

Lindsey is still an amazingly good-looking old git and powerful in ever way on that stage. So he can get it regardless of his fashion fails.

how did the thread with these nice photos like the one above, from less than a week ago, about LB's possible new collaborations in the studio, turned into "who can find the ugliest photo of LB there ever was and splash it across our screens"? :rolleyes:

last time he wore just a t-shirt on stage -



(and the only time on that particular tour - SWS in 2011)

I LOVE Lindsey, but this is so true. I could laugh endlessly about it. :laugh:

you know it's funny, I was watching an interview recently with Paul Stanley (from Kiss..he's hyping a book) and he said something like "make no mistake about it, guys on stage in torn jeans and teeshirts are wearing a costume just as much as I am" and explained that you know, they are rich and make millions and live in mansions but are perpetuating the myth that they are still the same struggling musicians they were before. That it's all about a deliberate creation of an image.

Seinfeld often remarked that the others got into wardrobe for the show and he did too. He took off his own jeans, sneakers and sweater and put on another set of almost identical jeans, sneakers and sweater. He couldn't explain fully why he bothered to change, but it was part of the process of performing.

Of course, the problem in FM is Lindsey doesn't bother to change enough.


Michele

Love this! Empire of the Sun has impeccable taste in music.

Just hope you aren't downwind…

And it's kind of funny considering just HOW much money he has. Didn't Stevie once say he made the most because he got a producer's cut? (now that might mean he made most on FM albums; one would have to think she's made more overall due to the success of her solo career. Still, he ain't hurting. Buy a new freaking shirt)

i do think he swims in money... but i wonder how can someone get a producer's cut if they are not listed as a producer? you don't get the cut just because everybody says you were de facto producer. their biggest selling album by far was Rumours and he was not listed as a producer there, it was the whole band so they'd all get the same cut, right? :shrug:

i guess he was listed as a producer on Mirage, Tango and SYW?

then, there are royalty cuts songwriters get. i'm guessing there SN must have made by far the most with Landslide. although Don't Stop must have made tons for Christine, as well as her Tango hits. GYOW probably made tons for LB, as well as HR.

and he seems not to have blown (no pun intended) as much on coke as Stevie, or Mick. And his grasp of the business side of show business seems pretty good, and likely he has maximized his income and his investments over the years (sold that house for almost 20 million!!). Can't feel too sorry on that score for any of them.

You could say that about Stevie too. At some point in her progression she became allergic to color. How many versions of black dresses can you have? Her minimal varients are almost as limited as Linsdey's white tee-shirts. Only on a rare occasion, like a sighting of Big Foot, does she bust out a dress that isn't black. I still can't over the fact that she chose to wear a white, bride-like dress to Mick Fleetwood's wedding. What the hell was she thinking?

That is why I love photos from the era 1975-1982. Their clothes were visually more diverse and interesting, with much more color and style.

Look at the recent photo in the promotion for their upcoming tour. All of them are dressed in black! They almost look an old biker gang. It's harsh and overdone.
