This still feels like a bad dream.

You got that right, Homie! :shocked:

Has anyone heard solo songs? I heard Stevie's Reconsider Me with Don Henley this morning.

Is there still a weird amount of Jackson Browne?

I've heard, Reconsider Me, Night Watch, Little Lies, Isn't It Midnight, Sara,

I've heard, Reconsider Me, Night Watch, Little Lies, Isn't It Midnight, Sara, Behind The Mask, Rhinannon, I Got It In For You, Hold Me, Illume, One More Night, Coming Your Way, Tusk Demo, This Is The Rock, Leather and Lace, Winds of Change, YMLF (Mirage Tour)

(All CM interview clips ) None of the other 4.

Just turned it on to the live Go Your Own Way from the Mirage Deluxe from the Forum. Maybe not the best version but certainly with it's own certain quirkiness the way L&S yell at each other and of course I had to listen close to pull out Chris's backing vocals on the chorus. Followed up with Stevie talking about Say You Will and then Silver Girl. Jesus what a freaking let down.

I heard her talking about Tango this afternoon saying that she wasn't really there for it because she was trying to get off a tranquilizer and that people were disappointed or worried about her. And that it was a really successful album. Then a house music version of Big Love came on.

What was the Say You Will commentary?

My wife said they played “One More Lonely Night” on XM and I couldn’t place the song. Then we played it. It was something I totally forgotten about. I played the live album a lot in ‘80s. It has been a while and it is such a great song.

About an hour ago they played a clip of Mick talking about the importance of being inducted into the RRHOF, followed immediately by a Bob Welch song. Hmmmmm… coincidence?

I feel ya Homer. This is surreal for me. Christine came into my life when the White Album came out. My mother suffered from schizophrenia and even though she took care of our needs she didn’t support us much emotionally. Now that Christine is gone I feel I that have lost a mother figure in my life.

I just heard Stevie's comments about the Say You Will time. Really fascinating.

She said they could put on a great show with Christine not being there in 2003. She said the two year Say You Will Tour was great. That Say You Will disappointed them that they were going to have to change with the times and showed "them" that they weren't going to make hit records anymore, and that the money is in the touring so they're going to stay on the road.

Another one came on, where she said FM started Say You Will without her even though she asked them to wait. They rented a house to record. And when she got there, she was happy to be there.

I also heard her comments about Say you Will. I yelled at the radio as I was driving, It was you that decided to just be a touring band to make money! Don't lump the rest of the group into that decision.

on Deep Tracks this morning in the car

Slow Down
Goodbye Baby
Hollywood some other kinda town
You Make Loving Fun live

For me this morning it was:

NGBA
Edge of 17
When It Comes to Love

I heard Beautiful Child this morning and I couldn't believe it was on the radio. And it's always a good day when Got a Hold On Me plays!

Heard this afternoon...

Ask Anybody, Oh Well (live), The City, The Chain (demo), Put a Candle In the Window, Stand Back (live in Boston), Blood on the Floor, Seven Wonders (dub), All Over Again, Oh Daddy (early take), Emerald Eyes, The Challenge, Freedom, Don't Let Me Down Again (live), Lindsey's Song #2 (That's All For Everyone), Gypsy, Searching For Madge, Everywhere, Smile At You, Winds of Change, One More Night, Remember Me.

They played both new songs off the McVie Compilation.

I was happily surprised thise were played.

What were songs played that people were really surprised to hear this weekend on Channel 27?

I think what surprises me the most - they weren’t really rotating the “setlist” songs as much as one would think. I only listened a few times but seemingly when I did it was some obscure pre-1975 song, something off one of the deluxe reissues, solo works, or something off of Time. I like the mix and it showed there is so much more to Fleetwood Mac than Dreams/Gypsy/SYLM/Landslide/YMLF/GYOW/Don’t Stop.

Although I could go to the end of my days with never hearing someone or something willingly playing Silver Girl ever again. Also, I re-remembered that Red Rover is a terrible song too.

Biggest surprise for me: they played a track from John McVie’s Gotta Band.

Amazing! They dug a little in Stevie's solo catalogue. I heard Enchanted, Reconsider Me, I Can't Wait, and Two Kinds of Love.

I think my biggest surprise was actually Brown Eyes. Boy does it sound great on Sirius!
