Michele

ok, yes I do remember that. Just making sure I didn't miss anything!

I think they share something very real and deep and the term "friendship" would not encompass it, but the interplay in these videos is something different. I find it intriguing, very much so, but yes manufactured.

And just the conversations they must have when they decide this is what they're going to do would be interesting to sit in on. But I want to see how they really are with each other.

I mean just a little thing like in Destiny Rules when Lindsey says he is going to push a button and play a recording of all the high notes he has to hit and Stevie responds, "Lindsey!" Just those spontaneous little outbursts mean the world. What does he do to make her squeal and exclaim when they're not "on" ? They don't have to put on a show. I can't believe they are selling tickets to anyone but focused fans with that handholding.

You don't know they planned it. And sure they plan stuff - but you don't know they did. I can't even imagine how that conversation would sound: "Ooh when they ask us about BN you grab my hand!" "yeah that will look so loving! And like I really care for you!" Lol

I think the number of fans that would notice that is pretty small and certainly wouldn't "sell out" arenas on the tour even if some silly handholding by two people in their sixties did happen to pique a few to purchase tickets. And, at these prices it would have to be more titllating than that...

But, if we're gonna see the real deal, I hope for the humor. Because they are really funny.

I totally agree. I don't think S & L "plan" anything. They truly love each other and have a deep connection.

I think they play it up for the public, but it stems from real feelings. It's like how they do the same things on tour night after night, that's not spontaneous, but a lot of those things start out that way and it's not totally insincere. They use their feelings (current or revived) as part of the theater.

^i never saw them live until 2009 so I can't comment on how they were live prior, besides all the YouTube videos I've seen. Funny that this "PDA" didn't start until The Dance- besides the one scene in The Mirage concert at the end of SOTM.. But, this is the first time I've seen them do anything like that in an interview. The Dance rehearsal thing only surfaced recently, I think those were edited. It's ironic that they hyped up their break up to market their band and now 40 years later they are supposedly marketing their....ongoing care and need to come full circle?? Why wouldn't it just be true - and a nice way to put BN in the press? They don't even have to do any of that. This world truly is a ugly cynical place when people can't even hold a hand without it being "staged for publicity". But if they were at each other's throats everyone would think that's 100% real and not possibly staged. Ha.

I don't know they planned it, but it looks like it was planned and, to me, that is the same difference.

Especially when you see they did the same thing throughout several different interviews ...

Especially since Mick seemed to be pre-announcing one of the hand holds, knowing it was coming...

Especially since Lindsey complained before that Mick and Stevie were trying to get him to go out on tour and share a mic and look into each other's eyes a few years ago. It seems like that's the set up now.

I think they love each other and have a deep connection too, but I think they planned that nonsense and I find it annoying.

Lindsey said that Mick and Stevie were trying to get him to market it before. So, yes, I believe that's exactly what they're doing.

You've said that you think their spats are contrived, to drum up interest and I think that's very unlikely.

Do real things happen? Yes, certainly. We were just talking about that. The push ups on Pattie's video. Stevie found Lindsey not only amusing, but adorable. The way she touched him as he pretended he needed help getting off of the ground ...that was real.

This handholding is not. In one clip, she puts her hand on the armrest to nudge him to hold hers and when he doesn't she then puts her hand on his, because he missed his cue! So, he hurried and caught up with the script.

Thank you. There is a whole lot of choreography involved in FM.
