Ok, just have to say, I'm diggin' the Scully sig pic, Carrie.

November 1974

Stevie was just about to join Fleetwood Mac and make all her dreams come true! I'm guessing in November of '74, she was out purchasing every Fleetwood Mac album and listening to them to she what she could contribute to the band. She was living with Lindsey at this time as well.

What was she doing? Coke, and several Eagles.

Seriously, there have been millions of threads, responses, episodes of Behind the Music, stories, interviews and songs written about what she was doing around that time.

Ha. Funny.

No.

[QUOTE=Nikolaj;892064]June of 1864.
So, she was 16.
What was she doing? Well, I have read she was voted 'runner up' as prom queen, I'd assume that would have been when she was a Senior in high school when that happened, but know knows.
She also may have been plotting to lose her virginity! Har... Lindsey would have been 15, right? Wouldn't it be wild if SN was the first woman LB ever slept with? Or vice versa? There had to be some reason she felt so free to join in as he played 'California Dreaming' and some reason why he was happy to have her sing along 2 years later!
Yes, I meant June of 1964, it only feels like 1864.[/QUOTE]

That's OK, David was around in 1894 so he could tell you what she was doing.

well to be fair, even in the height of my stevie fandom blitz, i think i only listened to OSOTM once. so don't be too hard on yourself.

I actually like it.
Someone my age who won't give me a weird look when I say who my favorite singer is and go on a 15 minute rant about her

Hehe, you are not alone. That's why I'm on this board, to feel less weird ! Oh, and welcome to The Ledge, by the way.

July 1966 - Stevie was 18 and had just graduated high school. She was probably playing her Goya guitar writing more songs like I've Loved and Lost and Rose Garden, getting ready to go to college where she would bump into Lindsey again.

Street Angel period...she'd just gotten out of rehab a couple months before (I think)...
Maybe she's out playing april fools jokes on people...I have no effing idea lol

I think in April she was still on Klonopin. Because the whole recording of Street Angel she was on Klonopin, and the recording took place in late 1993 too. After finishing record and before tour she was in Betty Ford.

Me too! I was about 17 months old when Fleetwood Mac came to Vienna! So close! There is a small town near border between Czech and Austria, where my grandparents live and I had to spent a lot of time there... it´s about 80 km from Vienna. It would be awesome if I could be there... I know, Stevie wasn´t that good, but still I love that period...

November of 1968.....Stevie I think was 20 yrs old? and in the band Fritz with Lindsey by now......interesting how time flies isn't it.........to be young again.....I'm only 41 but I long for those youthful days of no responsibilies and summer vacations off from school. Funny how you miss those simplier times when you don't have them anymore.....and technology didn't totally rule us and the whole world now......when talking to others was the real & only way than to commicate.....not that I can't appreciate all that we can do now & yes there are many advantages to what we have but......sometimes simple is better.......I digress.....don't mind me......just some thoughts.....

October 16th, 1990.. When I was born Stevie was 42 (bizarre!), more than likely getting ready for a show in Gainesville, FL for the BTM tour the next day..
