Not hatred of the man... just eyerolling derision at the things he does and says.

How could anyone sell their RRHOF award for cash and not exclusively for charity? That's a first for rock. It's pathetic to sell it. I applaud Stevie and Lindsey for not taking part.

The good news is that you'll be able to sate your curiosity, bwboy--the auction will be livestreamed on the auction house website!

Here are some last minute additions to the auction:

- The cardboard cut out of John that was featured in the Tusk video, which John was unable to attend due to prior commitments.

- The actual microphone Dave Mason used to record Time, which he lovingly gifted to Christine.

- The RV which Lindsey bought so Mick’s drug dealer could live on his property during the recording of Tango in the Night.

- The necklace Christine wore during the recording of Rumours, which contained her daily ration of cocaine.

Up next: Biddy's Britches - only worn once

Seriously if you are selling your RRHOF award for personal profit you have hit rock bottom and nothing is beneath you. How long before we see feces in a jar?

But they are actually profiting from this auction and will only say a part of the proceeds goes to charity but refuse to say the percentage. That tells you everything you need to know.
Stevie does not want the Video award for Gypsy? I would think of all that work she was forced to do she would want it. So they decided to keep the Grammys

This band keeps getting more ridiculous
Hey...times are tough. Christine just purchased a new house a few years ago.

Just added: an antique vase said to contain the last granules of dignity from Mick, Christine, and John.

It already exists. He has an exclusive "dark roast" as part of his new line of coffee.

that’s awesome! But just out of curiosity, what is John selling that you think lacks dignity? Nothing John gave to be auctioned seems worthy of the disdain they’re all getting. Just curious. And I hope people will contribute ideas for those last minute must-have auction items that any FM fan would love to have!

I told you! Mick is absolutely SHAMELESS.

It would have to be an antique, because dignity walked out the door some time ago.

The whole thing lacks dignity. They're pocketing cash while only donating an undisclosed percentage.

Got it. Perhaps the latest last-minute item up for bid might change your mind- Mick is donating his last remaining copy of his best selling album I’m Not Me, autographed by Mick and every member of the Zoo!

The next item up for bid is the unpublished version of his autobiography My Adventures in Fleetwood Mac. This one actually is the truth and not filled with lies.

Another added item, Christine's one stuffed animal she stole from Stevie during the Forum show 1982.

Items I would bid for:

Any wine glass Chris drank from

An empty baggie (no residue, I dont want to be arrested) from Lindsey's driveway from Mick's Tango days

Stevie's broken fingernail from the infamous fight in which Lindsey allegedly threw her against the car before quitting Fleetwood Mac

The monkey Mick had on his drums during the Mirage tour

Empty klonopin bottle from you know who

Elton John's auctions always raise lots of money for AIDS charities. In today's messed up world, we just had over 120 Americans die in Florida with hurricane Ian, Ukraine refugees, and other good causes that need money. To give broke Mick another $75,000 is just a waste. This auction could rake in over a million dollars too. Chris is worth tens of millions of dollars. I am sure she was hoodwinked into this to give Mick cover for his greed.
"Dear Chris.....I bloody need you. This Stevie Lindsey thing could leave me high and dry. I need money for my future. Why dont we sell a few things so I can make a few bucks at least as much I would have made for some meet and greets on tour we will never do again. Thanks mate. By the way, I have an extra pair of Biddy's britches. What size are you?"
