Apparently it's set to release in October.

Hope no one quits the band this time.

Is this new, or is this a reprint and update of his early 90's book "My Life and Adventures in Fleetwood Mac"?

Well I guess it is probably the same book for the episodes already covered in the first one, plus new chapters about the 90s and 2000s. Like "Fleetwood Mac: The First 30 Years" is an update of "Behind the Masks", as Bob Brunning said.

Anyway I would buy the book. I'd like to read what Mick has to say about these 20 last years.

I'm guessing certain chapters from the old version will be vastly different this time around?

I was going to say "I hope but I don't think so", cause I found difficult Mick would take the effort to review and add more info.

But you know, it makes sense he would... cause probaby he will substract those episodes that annoyed the other members. I just hope he will add more interesting info about Mirage production, and other 80s episodes.

hmmm I am wary about this. Although I would love to hear Mick's take on the past 20 years, I am perplexed that (like Rumours reissues)(in concert and CD)...why would he not want to tell the story in a different format. Movie, Musical, stage production?

Just seems to me that Mick (if he can't record new FM material) is content with the same rehashing of old concert staples and biography info.

This is just Another form of "milking it" IMO

I don't really want to read any more commentary on things that were in the first book, but if he can give us new information about things that happened within the band after they reconvened for Clinton to the present, I guess I will cherish it.

If all they do is rehash what's in magazine articles we already have, I will do serious damage to that drum vest!
