Default Recording?

So, is Christine in L.A.? Any recording? What's the latest?

Just seeing that word, "recording," on this board...it makes my heart beat double time! One thing I hope this trip accomplishes is sparking the desire in her to create again...solo, with the band, with *a* band, doesn't matter to me. Just want to hear more from her.

Me, too. No basis for this, but I'd like to think she's helping the band rehearse for the tour while Stevie is playing her dates.

Just wishing...

Very well possible. I'm sure Christine still has a good ear for sound and what works and what doesn't in the context of both studio recording and live performing. She could be hanging out and providing her opinions.

My other thought--again, no basis-- is that she is video-recording 'Don't Stop' and maybe one other song (YMLF or SYLM??). The video would appear in a small segment of the show and the rest of the band would play along. Kind of like Natalie Cole did with her father, and Elvis Presley's band with old concert footage of the King years ago. If they were to do something like this, she could make a special appearance and play live at one of the London shows.

I just can't imagine she would tour. Three months of touring in the U.S. with shows mostly every other night, seems like it would be too much after not playing or touring for so long.

I think this option is possible for a couple of reasons:

1. It would give the fans (and the show) something new;
2. She would have her "Sweet Revenge" on Lindsey for saying he enjoys playing more of his songs when she doesn't tour. Source below:

Anyway, time for me to go eat my chocolate hobnob and get a cup of tea.

Ha

I gather she is back in the UK now. Her manager's response to the adverts in the UK using 'Everywhere' indicated she was here and able to watch them at home.

These are the comments in question:

http://wklondon.typepad.com/welcome_...twood-mac.html

Our moonwalking pony ad for Three mobile is now topping the global viral charts. Second Sync, which analyzes Twitter conversations, says that the video generated 14,000 tweets within five hours of its internet premiere on Friday.

But even more excitingly, we got a telephone call from Martin Wyatt, manager of Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, the writer and performer of the song 'Everywhere' that soundtracks the ad. He told us that Christine is "absolutely thrilled to bits" that we used ‘Everywhere’ and wanted to congratulate whoever made the decision to use it in the ad. She "absolutely loves" the ad and has been "glued to the TV all weekend" waiting for it to come back on. Our Three team is a bit starstruck and overwhelmed at this news.

I guess Chris hasn't heard of YouTube.

i'm hoping, completely unrealistically, that the statement was put together by her publicist and did not have much to do with anything Christine may have actually said, and that Christine is still in LA hanging out with the band.

but i'm probably completely delusional.
