Was Don't Stop a recorded track for the Inaugural Ball in 1993?

[Mr Scarrott]

I can remember this being discussed on a thread years ago. There was an interview with John McVie in which he said something along the lines of "it wasn't as live as it looked" so we've known about this all the time. Still, someone tried to hide the fact that it wasn't fully live as there are a couple of amps on the stage which were presumably there just for show, unless they were there for the voices, which were live.

The proof was always there is you looked hard enough- at 3:26 on the first of Macfanfover's videos there's a piano glissando that Chris forgets to mime and from about 4:50 there's some fairly hopeless guitar miming going on from Lindsey as well.

Does it matter? Not really, I guess. I suppose this means that there were no fully live performances from just the five from 1982 to 1997 (Rick and Billy were presumably on stage with them in 1990 when Lindsey guested on GYOW and Tear it up ).

I like the Christine interviews that Macfanforever found. She's warm and self-deprecating and has an endearing tendency, which she does acknowledge, to get her years muddled up, saying for example that the Clinton gig was a catalyst for the Dance . Maybe it was, after a fashion, but she's forgetting the Bobby-in-the-shower dream sequence of the Time band...
