Default Poll: Hypothetical Job Interview Test

You have applied, and are in the final three applicants for a writing position at Rolling Stone Magazine.
They have told you and the other two applicantsthat in an upcoming issue there will be a huge feature (many articles and pictures) on fleetwood mac and their entire musical history. One of the articles will be asking various mac members three questions about their time in fleetwood mac.

Your assignment is to pick a fleetwood mac member and ask them three questions. You will be judged by how much NEW and fresh information the questions reveal as well as your eyebrows.
A cushy job is riding on it.
You may want to pick your fave member but will that get you the job?

Okay - who would you pick and what would be your three questions?


**note: if you select bekka/dave mason or billy/rick or jeremy/danny, then please specify which ONE you are picking for your questions. I grouped them together because you can only have ten options in the poll. Same goes for a former mac member who i haven't listed. You can still pick them just say so.

**note #2: i pondered and pondered where oh where this thread belonged since it spans all of f. mac's incarnations . . . so i chose chit chat. Maybe i should do a seperate poll about where it belongs?

I pick Stevie & ask:
  1. Do you hate the Internet because you believe your fans online are freaks or is it the technology you dislike?
  2. In what ways do you believe that coke affected your old vocal & performance styles?
  3. What does a major performer like you do when he or she has to use a toilet in the middle of a show?

Those are great

I would definitely ask Stevie what the HELL her deal is playing the same damn songs OVER and OVER and OVER, and how she isn't bored out of mind doing so and afraid of becoming just another oldies act with no current relevance whatsoever (oh, wait, has this already happened )

I would ask Lindsey what the HELL he is thinking screwing with his perfectly fine vocals when he makes records...SUD live is amazing; the album is embarrasing

Oh sorry those don't really follow the rules, those 2 things just came to mind

Stevie, duh.

1 - how does it feel to look back at performances of Rhiannon from the 70s and 80s? what goes through your mind as you watch.

2 - what were some of the songs seriously considered to appear on Bella Donna and why were some cut from the album? do you plan to ever release a boxed set of demos?

3 - since you come from privilege and only really lived paycheck to paycheck for a short time before heading back into a life of privilege, do you think that has affected your writing, performance, relationship towards fans and sense of reality?
