Mick's putting out a new autobiography

[Dragonfly]

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!

That's how he did the research for the first book.The new book will contain excerpts from all the magazine clippings from back then to the present. Heck he'll probably even quote various statements from us Ledgies!

Well I think many people who doesn't write journals may look for help in articles. Memory betrays us often. Mick's book is very good written, better than Bob's (a book also fed with articles). But of course an additional personal info is needed.

Wow a new book "My Life and Adventures in Fleetwood Mac Volume 2.

Mick probably just update his original book but we will see.

Use them to assist your own personal recollections. Don't quote them verbatim. A good rule of thumb is that if you already see it quoted in Rolling Stone magazine, then don't repeat what Rolling Stone already said, give us that behind the scenes view that hasn't made it into print yet.
