That's kind of a relief to know. All this time I misinterpreted you. To celebrate our newfound friendship, here are some soundboard performances from the Mirage tour.

Can't remember what year I entered The Ledge, but it was definitely before the 1997 reunion. Also I can't remember in what year it changed to the current format.

Well, she and her husband Marty were the CREATORS of this site, so maybe the "properties" of it changed over the years? I've read that it has different formats, before my time.

So 2000 must be the year The Ledge got the current format. Cause I immediately registered my user here.

But in the 90s there was the old Ledge, where all threads and its post titlles could be seen in one page. I guess the number of ledgies grew to the point that the site often collapsed, and Marty changed it to the current format, probably with more powerful servers.

And it was also part of The Penguin, who had a different appeareance, too. The lyric interpretations was there, too. So many great memories of those years.

Certainly has changed a lot over the years. Think it was between 1993/1995 that I first came on here, the Cyber Penguin, I did create a login, but when I came back years and years later I couldn't remember what it was (I do remember my password was 'witch' or some variation of as I recall Lis/Marty emailing me back saying "she's not really a witch you know". Don't remember my user name or email or whatever at that time.

I've spent most of my time lurking both here and on the usenet boards back long time ago. Can't even remember much from back then, 30 years has passed. Even my FM fandom has mostly passed, though I do still watch old Stevie clips and say to my wife "she was sooooooooo hot back then..." My wife's hatred of Stevie has never died, 26 years on....

I remember I have a @fleetwoodmac.net email account, too. But I did lose the password for that one, and I stopped using it years ago. It doesn't exist anymore, does it?

Oh, I think Lindsey would disagree with that.

I thoroughly maintain that she'd have had no long career, if the entire world didn't want to F her back then.

I'd actually always thought it was you (but my memory ain't what it was), and would have been mid/late '90s I reckon. I was still living at home with my parents. I discovered Stevie when I was 19/20, and discovered the Cyber Penguin when I was doing night classes on computing. Literally did a class about the internet, which sounds crazy today...

I too have no memory of the old Ledge, I recall it wasn't a very nice place sometimes, which is why I didn't spend much time there.

Yes, to this day I'm still in love with 1970's Stevie, Kate Bush and Lynda Carter...

I don’t know how much of a Ledge old timer I’m considered, but I was part of the precursor Fleetwood Mac Usenet newsgroup (alt.music.fleetwoodmac) since 1994.

Turned 50 back in June. Feeling OLD!

I think I got my first computer around 1996, and quickly discovered alt.net.fleetwood.mac.(wasn't that it?)

Does usenet even still exist? I remember when my ISP dropped it. You could subscribe to it, but hell, that's been 20 years ago.

Well I remember you from the usenet days, so if you aren't an old timer then neither am I (May '74 here).
