Robbored Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Just caught a glimpse of FM whilst flicking channels during half time at the Baggies Lovely interview with Stevie Nicks ......and some appraisals of the 50 years of FM from some of today’s music critics who I’ve never heard of...... If you like FM then it’s worth downloading it from iPlayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Steered clear of the 2019 tour without Lindsay Buckingham. I did the same with Black Sabbath minus Bill Ward out of principle. I’m sure I’ll regret it as much as I do that tour. Least I did catch Sabbath with Bill, I may never see FM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right what you say about Lindsay Buckingham though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right what you say about Lindsay Buckingham though In answer, no. And I doubt that there will be. And they’d probably get my vote for #1.

Very soft and flowery. Waaay too expensive for likes of Mrs Robbo...... I met Mick Fleetwood at a gig they did at a pub on the outskirts of Birmingham in 1970. There were about 30 people in the audience. Long before they moved to the States and Stevie and Lindsay joined them. It was during the interval and we chatted at the bar. I said I liked what they had done so far. He said "No way mate, we were crap, I am thinking of breaking up this band and starting again" !!! True story. Little did he (or me) know that they would go to make Rumours, which I agree is one of the two or three best albums ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal favourite brush with fame ; I slept with Alanis Morrisette . We didn’t exactly share a bed but we did share a dormitory in Patagonia. She still dines out on this story I’m sure .

My sister was a nanny employed by the band. She travelled all of the world with them. She had a wonderful time as you can imagine. She was able to arrange for us to be on the guest list for their concerts and including the post concert ‘do’. Mrs Robbo and I were on the guest list and that’s when I met the adorable but fragile Stevie Nicks. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister became close friends with Mick Fleetwood's sister Sally and often stayed with her in Mousehole, Cornwall. Still in contact now I think, 30 years on. Mick also owned a huge 16th century house just north of Salisbury, not far from where Sting owned/owns a similar house in the same area with the river Avon running thru the land belonging to the property. I often visited my sister there. Lovely place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
