Smile Sorry Lori, I found EOTW!

OK, how about this list? In no particular order:

1. Tusk (vid)
2. Gypsy (vid)
3. Hold me (vid)
4. Big love (vid)
5. Seven wonders (vid)
6 Little lies (vid)
7. Everywhere (vid)
8. Rhiannon (7:86 is what it says on vault list (?))
9. Sisters of the moon (live in LA/Visible time code)
10. Go your own way (live in LA/Visible time code (or from Brit awards)
11. Not that funny (live in LA/Visible time code)
12. Love in store (live in LA/Visible time code)
13. Songbird (live in LA/Visible time code)
14. The Chain (live in LA/Visible time code)
15. Eyes of the world (billed on list as "Eyes" live in LA/Visible time code)
16. Dreams (live in LA/Visible time code (or from "Paris promo")
17. Sara (4:00 is what it says on vault list (?))
18. I'm so afraid (live in LA/Visible time code)
19. Don't stop (either from Clinton ball or from Brit awards)

(of course we would have to do some rearranging if these LA things were from the Mirage tape but...) This keeps those three songwriters even at 6 each with "The chain" representing everyone and with the addition of a few somgs, it brings the total closer to the 90 minute mark but still keeps it even with those three. If there was time left over either the extras I've mentioned in above posts or maybe to please the fans of the older stuff (as Peter Green did form the band after all) maybe have the clip of "Oh well" from those sessions that gave us "Like crying" & "Linda" which were used on "The early years" DVD but much to my disapointment, "Oh well" was omitted. That would clean that session up as well as keep the songwriters from the Rumours line up even. I was trying to think of a way to work in the Hall of Fame stuff (as this and the Brit awards and the Clinton thing are of great historical documentary vaule in Mac history) but there was no way to get it all in and still have it be even and/or withiout being repetitive ("Big love" etc.). I would've preferred this "Landslide" to this mysterious "Sara" that I've listed above but as we seem to be going by what charted as top 40 hits in the US as most eminent, this is why I chose that but of course we have to remember that we have many overseas fans and they had some other hits in their respective countries (in addition to the Peter Green stuff there's "Oh diane" of course, if anyone thinks we should use that full clip of them lip synching it on British TV we've seen in the "The story of Fleetwood Mac" doc, I'm all for replacing "I'm so afraid" or whatever with this). So we should take some of these things into consideration and I've tried to do that with this list and these comments. I just thought that if weren't long behind the 90 minute mark with most of what we have been able to agree on then that would be a good way around keeping those three songwriters even, having it be at least 90 minutes (but probably and preferrably longer) and making those happy who want footage of foreign hits/other eras of the band represented in some way even if it is only for a few minutes. I would hope though that if you do say "Go your own way" from the "Brit awards" that you would consider taking "Don't stop" from the "Brit awards" too (or "Dreams" from "Paris promo" that "Don't stop" "Paris promo" would go with it too) to attempt to keep things together you know? Any amendments, comments, suggestions, etc. ? Let's hear 'em!

John
