What? That was hot.

Lindsey sure has a whole slew of new stuff, but Stevie? I want her to do "Shake Your Moneymaker" also.

I LOVE that NTF-livething.

Shake your moneymaker.....I'd love that too. But Lindsey on slide? the guy doesn't even know how to use a pick!

I knew that laptop would come in handy. Just as well Martin Wyatt got it for her!

Perhaps John could persuade Christine to do a Q&A?

Okay, well, she comes here, right? In the middle of the night(my night - which would be mid-morning for her), there's a member, with "part(s)" of her name, logged on. If you click the profile, there's no info, no PMs, no links, nada...... I've suspected, for some time, that it's her.

I sure hope so!
Christine, IF you read this, I WISH that you'd choose to share a little bit of your time with us, and answer a few Fleetwood Mac questions, like John.
Don't be afraid. We won't bite.

Which user name are you referring to, Homer?...if you don't mind me asking.

Here, here. By the way, It makes me very happy to hear that she's doing well & enjoying life.

I've not seen it for a couple of weeks, but I think it's just "christine m". I just find it odd that all "links" aren't active, even PM's.

Hmm...very interesting. That user name isn't in the members list. I'll have to watch for it.

I did ask John (I think during the last Q&A, last year) to see if she'd be up for one- I wrote up a whole schpiel on how easy we'd make it, how it would only be for a very short period of time if that's what she wanted etc... but I don't think it's gonna happen. But at least she is well and happy, I'm glad for that.

No I don't think she wants to do it.

I think we might have heard by now if she was up for it

Though, to be fair to Lindsey, most slide players don't use picks. (Bonnie Raitt doesn't use a pick when playing slide.)

That's not what I meant. I mean additions outside fingers AT ALL!!

You've heard Lindsey on slide...what do you think he's doing on that solo in the original studio version of "Monday Morning"...and during the studio version of "World Turning"...there are a couple of other incidents where I've heard him playing slide but can't remember exactly which tunes.

And, just cuz Jeremy was imitating Elmore James' version of "Shake Your Moneymaker" on the original Fleetwood Mac recording of it, doesn't mean that they'd keep the original arrangement. I think a re-arranged version would be cool. Bob Welch used to play "Shake Your Moneymaker" as an encore tune during his French Kiss tour Neither he nor Todd Sharp played slide on that version and it still kicked ass.

There are certain cities in the USA...*cough*Dallas*cough* that SUCK when it comes to concerts. These frickin' people don't know how to shut the frick up and enjoy the damn concert. They get up to pee 4 trillion times, go get more drinks, food, have the most INANE conversations with their friends, etc. You really can't do a new or rare song in one or two cities and then say "They hated it. Let's drop it." One city will suck, but the next few may go CRAZY for the song.

All the screaming at the end. Egads, all the screaming!

I tend to fast forward too on the live versions after the first ten minutes...

Anyway, reading John's great answers I realized once again how lucky we are to have this opportunity. Thanks Marty and Lis!

John McVie is the best. Not only do we get what seem like frank and thought out comments/responses from him, he's not trying to sell us golf clubs or timeshares in the process.

^ So true, Dan. So true.
