Fleetwood mac WILL record new album says stevie - Page 37

SeanJT · #**541** 03-25-2016, 09:29 AM

I don't remember a time in Fleetwood Mac history that they all stayed this quiet this long after all the news we've received the last couple of years; meaning new songs, Christine rejoining, world tour, new album, etc. (Not to mention the recent passing of so many legendary rock icons...)

So much movement (slow as it was/is), then nothing for months. I can't help but wonder if it is all leading up to the "grand finale/massive media blitz/album (hopefully double album) release/farewell tour/50 year band anniversary, 40 year 'Rumours' anniversary (both anniversaries happening in 2017)"

Someone somewhere must know something about what's coming. I just don't remember this kind of long term silence from the band. Something MUST be cooking somewhere! The speculation is maddening!

This has definitely happened before. No worries, JT! How long have you been a fan may I ask?

I have a fleet of players here and I could rent them out who needs it.

NEVER! Those things sucked!

Yea .I agree.The muffled sound.Two channels playing at once and no rewind.

Its like having an Ipod with a crappy dollar store muffled sound headset with broken buttons except for the play button.

Reel to Reel tape would be great.Get a copy recorded at 7 1/2 or 15ips tape speed would sound great.

Hey, sywlindseyfan!

I have been an enthusiastic fan for 40 years!

It just seems with social media these days, we would hear something; even if NOTHING was happening, seems we would hear about it from someone.

I'm always fascinated when someone tells me he or she dug some incarnation of the band before 1975. How did you become aware of HEROES? Did you hear any of it on the radio? Did you happen to go to a live show? Details! I want details!

That's so awesome! I'm always curious of how long we have all been fans. I look to people like you on the ledge, thank you for keeping this band going. I see what you mean about social media. Definitely a silent period, but this band knows how to play the game in their favor. They are so good at keeping their privacy!

Mick Fleetwood was just on the morning show CH7 promoting his Blues band tour, unfortunately i missed the very start of the interview. They showed lots of photos and some new footage that i haven't seen before from back in their glory years. Talked about the same old stuff, their affairs etc but NO MENTION of a new album.. Did anyone here in OZ catch the start of this interview?

justcrazylove · #**550** 03-27-2016, 08:30 PM

I saw the interview, it was ****ing terrible, not one interesting question and not even a proper discussion about the blues band tour! However Mick kept trying to steer the conversation towards his band, we did learn however that Jimmy Barnes will be performing with him tonight!

I thought Mick looked good though.

Waiting for the gig to start. Was interrupted a grand total of five times so I didn't get to ask my questions, but a good experience nevertheless. Just at a small theatre so we had the M&G in the foyer area, just sat on sofas and bar stools while he stood in the centre. Pretty noisy so I doubt any audio recording I made turned out.

The one and only piece of 'news' came out of a question about whether FM would tour again. Intending to tour beginning in October 2017, though they really 'need' to before that. Apparently Stevie needs convincing. He talks to Chris weekly. She calls wanting to know when they're going back out. It'll probably be the last tour and go for two years or so, off and on. "Massive."

I wanted to ask a follow-up, clarification of the album situation but I'm not assertive enough to talk over those butting in when I start talking, lol.

Hello, nicole21290!

Sorry, but am I understanding you were at a Q&A with Mick for his show, and he said the next tour is maybe October 2017?

Wouldn't that mean we get the new album between now and next summer?

That's an awfully long gap.

Any other questions asked that could shed some light?

October 2017 tour????? Oh f**k...no album soon then. So much for the big anniversary year- it'll be nearly over before they start doing anything.

Thank you for the report Nicole.

The timing makes sense to me. Band members have most of 2016 to do what they want before finishing up the album in 2017 and then beginning the farewell tour and album promotion.
