The music lives on……
 

Play the music….The remastered releases..the demos…the boots..the 5.1 dolby SS.the solo releases… All the great music this band gave us. This band is done IMO. Thank you for the music!

Totally agree with these words! Thank you for such wonderful music for so many years and the wonderful memories...and yes, we still have so much to listen to 'Over and Over' again.

I find myself still putting on any old album because I love the music.

Lately: I've been in a Tango mood. Possibly because of the youtube. But, what a wonderful album to listen to in the fall. I love the deluxe version, too! :wavey:

If Mick wants to make some money the band can sign over royalties for the following items:

Give us a reissue of the 1980 Live album with untouched Sara, The Chain, Sisters, Think About Me, etc.

Give us un unpackaged Mirage show live CD. If you have all the footage from the LA show with Hold Me, Sara, etc release it in video.

I want raw, unleashed Fleetwood Mac. Its an outrage we have to go back to 1982 for the last album with these 5. Tango does not count in my book. One member was missing and only showed up for the photo shoot and a few whatsa matta babies.

I just saw this, too. I'll also post in "Pre".

This.

The FULL Mirage concert is what we want, Mick. The rights must cost too much, or he'd have already chased this dollar bill down the street....

I agree. Actually the band was over long ago IMO, that's why I was glad just with the deluxe editions that included rehearsals, unreleased versions, etc. But enough is enough. I'm no interested in more unreleased editions or live audios anymore.

I know Mike and Neil wanted to make an album with FM, but I'm wondering if Stevie didn't want to make an album with the new FM lineup out of respect for Lindsey. As in the creative period of Fleetwood Mac ended with Lindsey as a member of FM.

I think Stevie views and wants Say You Will as the final Fleetwood Mac album and now her job and the band's job is to present the body of work of FM to people who want to hear the songs played by them in concert, with Mike and Neil helping FM do that.

Idk it seems quite sweet actually; she's not disrespecting Lindsey's time in FM by not making new FM music with Mike and Neil.

Oh wow, I could not disagree with you more ;)

You really think Stevie is respecting Lindsey by not recording with the Mac? I would never believe that for a second. Of course Mike and Neil dont want the cash cow to die and would love to record or play another tour. Stevie was not happy with Say You Will and most of the reason was Lindsey. She publicly disagreed with how the album was produced, packaged, and released. I doubt she wants to hold on to that legacy since it was not very successful nor fun for her to do.
I never bought the argument that Mike and Neil were true permeant members. Never did. They were stand ins for a tour that was already agreed to. Mick's statements were total rubbish. Never believed a word from him. Once that 2018 tour ended, I knew they would never share the same stage again let alone a recording studio. I think you have been listening to Sister Honey a bit too loud with your head phones ;)

No offense, but this is the kookiest thing I've ever read. Stevie got him fired from the band, BECAUSE SHE CAN'T STAND HIM. She ain't doing sh*t out of respect for him. She's a nasty old goat.

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

"I'll have what she's having".:lol:

I'll put it this way: Stevie will never make another album with Fleetwood Mac unless she and Lindsey reconcile.
I think in Stevie's mind: FM is really Mick, John, Christine, Stevie and Lindsey.
She got Lindsey fired probably because he diminished her talent, not because she didn't want to make an album with him.

The new lineup of Mac couldve had at least one album out by now.

I get what you're saying. But, I think she doesn't want to make an album with him ever. And I think she'd make an album with Mike and Neil before she'd make one with LB.

She literally bailed on BuckVie for her nasal demos album.

It might be kooky but it’s exactly how Stevie’s mind works. I could see this logic in Stevie’s head. She would only want to do a FM album if he was involved. But she at the same time has no interest in ever working with him again. In her mind that all tracks

This is the 2nd kookiest thing I've ever read. :xoxo:

And that’s exactly why it makes sense when you put your Stevie crown and chiffon shawl on and dance around the Persian carpet in your house.

Back to the Gypsy, that I was... :laugh:

Thank you!
The other night she was comparing The Judds to Buckingham Nicks at her concert in Nashville. Recently, she's talking of the glory days with Lindsey, not glory days with Billy and Rick. (Zane Lowe interview and Nashville concert)

You might be onto something. Shipperville is not dead after all. :wavey:

God, it should be, after $he got him fired. I wish $he could see herself, for what $he's become.

It's different than last year where she said I'll write about him starting back in 1968:laugh:

She truly is a loony toon. Can you imagine what it's like being inside her head?

Remember on Golden Girls, when they show the cartoons and thoughts that go on inside Rose's head? I'll bet it's like that...:lol:

It could be called Golden Braids (Inside a Velvet Head)

Last night she said "our friend Lindsey" while telling the story of writing Landslide.

Oh really…I must catch that on YouTube…
Maybe she’s developing a conscience…

Calling him "our friend" is insulting when you really think about it.

I agree. She knows the crowd will agree with her. Surprised they didn't boo him.
But she doesn't stop talking about him:laugh:

I wonder if she actually feels guilt.

I don’t think she does, because in her world she has done no wrong.
She is in the Autumn of her life and believes she is entitled to happiness.
If that means never performing with Lindsey again, if that’s what makes her happy….so be it…..( her thoughts not mine)
I honestly think she never even gives her actions a second thought.

I tend to agree with you on that.

I agree, too. It's her world, and we're just living in it. Shows what surrounding yourself with yes people for decades will do to you.

The band is definitely done. But solo work is not. Lindsey released a new album just last year and is now touring it. Stevie has released a GREAT cover song and is touring live as we speak also. Even Christine has her solo studio collection of songs out recently.

Mick is probably still playing gigs at his restaurant in Maui.

So yes the band are most likely done, but the solo members of said band are not (except maybe for John, who never really had a solo career anyway).

Also note both Neil Finn and Mike Campbell are still touring with Crowded House and the Dirty Knobs, respectively. With added publicity from their jaunt in Fleetwood Mac.

The music has well and truly NOT stopped yet, my friend! :woohoo:

Me too. :distress:

The only thing here I might challenge is her being in the autumn of her life. Is it not safe to say they are ALL in the winters of their respective discontents, no matter how many facelifts and shawls and seasons of Narcos?

Even children are getting older.

Getting? They’re there—and then some!

But they’re still fabulous

No no no….I am the same age as Lindsey…and I’m definitely in my Autumnal years…….
And no facelift in sight….hahaha…yet

Their grandchildren are there, too! They're all listening!

We'll look back on these final years, and realise we had a slow fade out, rather than a last hurrah.

I often think about the LB/CM record, and imagine what they might have done with it, if Ms Nicks had joined in. A massive promotional push all over the planet. Maybe some great music videos! How about a re-worked Big Love video? Same location, zooming in rather than pulling out... They all still looked great in 2017.

I think they should repackage that album, call it 'On With The Show' by Fleetwood Mac. That's what it is, after all. Add a couple of bonus tracks, give it a decent cover. There's your final act.

Yea, she definitely killed the band.
