I was 21...I had just seen them outdoors at Cleveland Stadium, at a World Series of Rock show! 80,000 ppl...all day/night show...I got up within 20 yards of the stage when the Mac played...it was awesome...summer of '77! Saw them on every tour through the "Say You Will" tour. MAC 4EVER!
Stevie called Lindsey strong because he'd collapsed and was hospitalized on July the 30th and had to have a spinal tap done... and still played this show on August the 7th! I'd say she's right, he's a tough dude.
you had a good time? well keep playing and you"ll have a better time...the longer you play time the better the time that you have will be...just a simple segment of time played many times will give you joy - its like meditation - just 4 minutes will not cut it - the world was made out of void through rhythm and the world has a rhythm (duality) to it - and the end of the world is the end of rhythm (chaos) (void)
Lindsey, as amazing as he is was just second hand news to Stevie, unfortunantely. I love this song and I know he did directed this to her - I did not understand what Stevie meant when she said"Lindsey is one strong man". I don't really care - I just love all of the controvery surrounding Lindsey & Stevie - It is very funny and also real life as we know it!!!
I saw them at Alpine Valley (WI). I believe it was the 1978 tour. Went with some high school girlfriends. Needless to say, the concert was fantastic!!!
Timeless band, few stand up like that after 30 years. My interpretation of the ending, Stevie made some smart ass crack that LB understood as a jab of some sort. Christine went up to him and said "just ignore it", took his guitar and hand it off.
fleetwood mac were on tour supporting the rumours album for 18 months..that's crazy notice the difference in the way lindsey and stevie look and dress at the end of the tour as opposed to the beginning
Just a great band. The front "twins" are stellar, and the back of the band is one of the best to ever take a stage. Throw in one of the greatest musicians to play rock, a brilliant songwriter, and a beautiful soul, and you have a powerhouse.
But, I'm still surprised how all time great they were. I know, I know, I probably sound like an old codger, but man!!!!!!, NOBODY does this music anymore. It's rap, Lady Garbage, Britney "Can't Sing" Spears, and a lot of autotune junk.
Doesn't anyone really want to hear great music and see people who care about music these days, and not just being famous?
Great upload-thank you! I'm not sure I get the comment at the end-but it was funny and reminded me of the clip when they won the Grammy and in the last second of the speech Stevie suddenly awakens to blurt out "Thank You Warner" or something like that. I love this band!
@collegeri i heard that this was taken soon after lindsey had his first epileptic seizures, so christine taking his guitar when they walked off stage, stevie saying he was a strong man & rubbing his back afterwards was connected to that.
@ZinkDude I think it's a guy named Ray Lindsey (yep, "Lindsey" or "Lindsay" is his LAST name), who was an extra musician for live shows back then. He may have also been Buckingham's guitar tech.
Mick Fleetwood is an amazing drummer with the patience of Job to deal with the bands endorphine driven mood swings. Imagine the video if Shania Twain had joined the band, 3 girls together singing, Any man of Mine, while the male band members took turns slamming their head against a wall and their dick in a car door.
Great story with the upload. Good writing but the back story isn't that well known to all so maybe a few extra sentences about what happened with those two might be useful.
great track. I was 14 when this came out and what I remember was that it was just everywhere - almost anybody's record collection you raked through, no matter who their favourite band were would have rumours. I suppose its an obvious statement tho, since it sold in truckloads
@vidprof1 The whole Rumors album was stellar. I grew up listening to it in diapers on vinyl, on a cassette, on CD and rocking the mp3. I have even listened to it on mini-disk, the format that protected disks and was doomed to fail.
@ledamate It's only weird because I thought that's the last thing she'd say about Lindsey in that time epriod. Maybe it's because cocaine is a hell of a drug, IDK... Just speculating...
@MuTheta OK you're right ABBA wasn't a good BAND, per se, but I liked a few of their songs (not many though) as they did lean toward the faggoty side of pop music. But I were probably pissed when I wrote that so I succumb.
Naw this is totally the summer 1978 tour. After that summer they did not tour again until fall 1979...by that time LB was all new wave with his tailored suits and a custom built guitar. 78 was the last time he used other guitars onstage...
