Yes does he not tell the story in his first book? I think he lost the original ones from the Rumours album ironically in a bathroom somewhere while on tour or something. So I am curious about this auction where it states the balls are from the Rumours album. Did he not state long ago that they were replaced sometime after the Rumorus shoot.

From the link above:

“They made an appearance at almost all of Fleetwood Mac’s performances, but the originals got lost on the road.

However, Fleetwood had a replica made and makes do with that pair.”

See. Mick may be able to fool others but not us here on the ledge. This is what I cut and paste from the auction:

Lost and found many times over, the balls were originally lavatory chains snatched from a club Fleetwood Mac played during their early years and incorporated into his stage attire in a ribald nod to the blues tradition, something of a good luck charm.


So now he's retracting his story or changing it claiming the originals were found? That is nonsense. He lost them decades ago. They are not being truthful with bidders.
Who's with me to show up and disrupt this auction with shouts of FRAUD!

I'm sure most of the proceeds will go to them.

Playing that could fall under torture techniques during wartime.

She's a far better guitarist than keyboardist or piano player even at amateurish quality. Many miss the context of those late 70s/early 80s photos of Stevie with Valerie Bertinelli and Eddie Van Halen. In those days Stevie gave Eddie a few tips and even slipped him an early demo of Eruption that he tweaked to what it is today. Don't let those off beat cow bell twats fool you for a second.
