Default question re: Mick and the Blue Whale

Got this question yesterday from someone; figured this is a good place to ask since I know some of you may have some info? I myself know nothing about it!

Just figured I'd put it out there....david? Steve? Anybody ?

**************************

asking if anyone knows if Mic Fleetwood recorded any music with a group he played with briefly
back in the late 80's called Mic Fleetwood and the Blue Whale?
I saw them play together and have lots of pictures as well. I thought that was the best concert I had ever seen.
They played outdoors in Rockford Illinois in September at a festival called "on the Water Front" (I think that's what is was called).
I am looking for any music that may have been recorded by them or if anyone knows of the band members and if they are still playing?

John

I think this was a band Mick put together after the 1992 Zoo tour ended. The only reason I know this is that somebody mentioned it to me at a bus stop in Dayton in the fall of 1993. He said that he saw Mick's new band. I thought he meant the Zoo, but he said that it was a band called "Blue Whale" and that it was a blues band. I don't know how long they were together or how many shows they played, but I do know they toured but, to my knowledge, they never recorded. Incidentally, the band was named after Mick's old house.

Default Blue Whale

Would there be a way for me to ask Mick himself or his agent about any recordings? If they did not record (which we believe) then where are the members of that band now? are they together under a new name or what?
