Just added: an antique vase said to contain the last granules of dignity from Mick, Christine, and John.

that’s awesome! But just out of curiosity, what is John selling that you think lacks dignity? Nothing John gave to be auctioned seems worthy of the disdain they’re all getting. Just curious. And I hope people will contribute ideas for those last minute must-have auction items that any FM fan would love to have!

The next item up for bid is the unpublished version of his autobiography My Adventures in Fleetwood Mac. This one actually is the truth and not filled with lies. |

Another added item, Christine's one stuffed animal she stole from Stevie during the Forum show 1982.

Items I would bid for:
Any wine glass Chris drank from An empty baggie (no residue, I dont want to be arrested) from Lindsey's driveway from Mick's Tango days Stevie's broken fingernail from the infamous fight in which Lindsey allegedly threw her against the car before quitting Fleetwood Mac The monkey Mick had on his drums during the Mirage tour Empty klonopin bottle from you know who Elton John's auctions always raise lots of money for AIDS charities. In today's messed up world, we just had over 120 Americans die in Florida with hurricane Ian, Ukraine refugees, and other good causes that need money. To give broke Mick another $75,000 is just a waste. This auction could rake in over a million dollars too. Chris is worth tens of millions of dollars. I am sure she was hoodwinked into this to give Mick cover for his greed. "Dear Chris.....I bloody need you. This Stevie Lindsey thing could leave me high and dry. I need money for my future. Why dont we sell a few things so I can make a few bucks at least as much I would have made for some meet and greets on tour we will never do again. Thanks mate. By the way, I have an extra pair of Biddy's britches. What size are you?"

If Mick needs an income again, why doesn’t he hire himself out as a session drummer? Surely, many recording artists would love to have Mick Fleetwood play drums for them, in the studio or onstage or both. He could make a fine living at his age doing session work. Doesn’t that seem more interesting — if you’re a musician — than selling coffee or wine or electronic vests?
Everybody is sort of dumb in Fleetwood Mac. Even back in the old days, Peter and Danny and Bob Weston and others were all sort of dumb. Bob Welch may have been the only non-dumb one. Rick, too.

I think you are blaming Mick way too much here. First of all, I just don’t see Christine as someone who’s easily hoodwinked or taken advantage of in business. If anything, considering the fact that she’s the only person promoting the auction, my first thought was it was her idea. She never promotes anything, and all of a sudden she’s promoting Songbird and now the auction. Her handlers know what they’re doing. I understand you hate Mick, which makes it easy for him to be a scapegoat, but this could just as easily have been Christine’s idea- just like it was her idea to sell her catalogue. And even if it wasn’t her idea, she can do whatever she wants with her property. I’m considering buying her baby grand, and I think you should give serious thoughts to purchasing John’s surfboard! |

I was horrified to see Mick give up his RRHOF award, not because the award itself is especially meaningful but because of how badly Bob Welch wanted one and how devastated he was not to be included in it. No tact whatsoever. |

I never thought of that angle but YES its pouring salt in that Welch wound again. Who would have guessed that in 24 years after that fiasco that Mick would be selling it to the highest bidder bwboy: I am not blaming Mick or blaming anyone. I am just saddened at the greed. All the items are theirs so that may sound harsh. They are free to do whatever they want with them. However this band goes far beyond the norm in selling their historic momentos. They should really just create their own Ebay account and sell it themselves for profit. I would have respect for that. But they are using the "rock star auction" tradition to enrich themselves. Not blaming anyone just horrified at their actions. It was tongue and cheek saying Christine was giving him cover. But lets be real, Mick knows he would have been thrown under the bus by the press for doing it himself. So he tried to make it a "Fleetwood Mac" auction. Yet is not, its just 3 members (who IMHO were asked to find something). They realize they are old and their days numbered. Clearly these items need to be found a home by someone who can preserve them. If all the items donated were for charity, they would all get a huge charitable deduction. Yet that was not good enough. Chris has a net worth of at least 65 million. Does she really need a few hundred thousand dollars? Or is there better way to funnel money from a rock star auction to a needy charity? They are free to do it just as I am free to criticize them for it. Having said all that, I think its official. They are done and cashing out. $$$$

Mick in 1998: You don't deserve this Bob. Mick in 2014: Bob was just as instrumental to the band as Stevie and Lindsey Mick in 2022: Who wants my RRHOF trophy? Btw I have a great deal on some britches. Barely worn.
