hey everyone!
In my American Literature class every person has to complete an independent project which can be over anything they want. Guess what I'm doing it over? Did you say Fleetwood Mac? well, you would be right! So, I am trying to decide what video clip to show to the class. The videos I have are the Dance, Mirage, and the Going Home Documentary. I'm learning towards "Rhainnon" from the Mirage video, but there's also "Gold Dust Woman" from the dance and multiple clips on the documentary, like the end of Rhiannon from the rosebud doc (it doesn't show the whole song...just the exorcism

)

Any thoughts on what clip I should show? Its probably gonna be a stevie song. I'm presenting tomorrow, so any ideas would be greatly appreciated

I don't know what to tell you...what is the project supposed to be about? I find it kind of strange to have a completely open assignment where anything goes. In any case, if you just want to use a "favorite" clip, I would do Gold Dust Woman from The Dance. I don't think I would do anything older than The Dance...just because it doesn't appear to have much relevance to this day and age if you use something from the Mirage video. That's just my opinion...I think the newer the better. Which, you might even want to show Silver Springs rather than Gold Dust Woman, just for the end of Silver Springs. Those are my suggestions.

thank you for your suggestions sorceror386! Yes, it is a completely open assignment- its just something she threw at us at the beginning of the semester and said we could present it anytime before the semester was over. I feel kind of weird doing it over my favorite band when other people are doing things like drumline, music producing, video making, etc. but I'm sure all of the people on The Ledge can understand me doing the project on Fleetwood Mac. I guess I'm just gonna talk a little about the history of the band, why I love them so much, and then show the video clip. I had this great idea to make FM Cd samplers for everyone in the class, but that just ain't happenen

any other suggestions anyone? I'll be up kinda late tonight, so there is still time!

thank you!

I like the Silver Springs idea! That chemistry should communicate why the Mac is so awesome and why they are still rockin'!

Yeah, Silver Springs, just by watching it, kind of sums up at least LB and SN's side of the history of the band...but even the words could be branched out to all members of the band. Of course, it might be a little biased as it is Stevie's side of things, but I think even just through their interaction everyone will get the point.
