Pretty ambitious! I just hope Mick still finds time for his two main projects --- the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band and Fleetwood Mac (in whichever order one chooses ).

One other thing I noticed, the Island Rumours Band is not mentioned at all. Are they history?

I guess it's cool that even in his sixties, the man still has so much passion for music and performing that he's constantly seeking new, creative and different ways to enjoy it. I'm just a bit overwhelmed at the extent of his plans!

I'll always be a big Mick fan, but how can I possibly keep track of all this stuff?
Ok. Just really quick off the top of my head.

I think Island Rumours is done since Rick moved back to Nashville late last year. I don't think the Men of Mac bar mitzvah thing was ever a serious thought, more like an off hand joke, just like the Traveling Wilburys thing. The ZZ Top, Meatloaf, Paul Rogers stuff is a definite possibility, as we already know that MFBB has dates booked with ZZ Top this year. As far as Jeremy is concerned, see my comments in the "Pre-Rumours" forum. It's never gonna happen.

Cheers!
