I have no doubt that Mick also tried to rope Stevie and maybe Lindsey into this sell-out sell-off, and that those two wanted nothing to do with it. I can understand Christine getting rid of stuff. She comes across as completely unsentimental most of the time, and maybe there are some tax considerations for liquidating your estate while alive. But the shonky and shameless idea of selling off a bunch of random crap with "a portion" of the proceeds going to charity has the name Mick Fleecewood all over it. I imagine that whoever places the winning bid on Christine's historic baby grand will open the lid to find a one-month trial subscription to Fleetwood's Coffee Beans taped to the keys.

These auctions happen all the time in rock. I think its cool and hopefully Chris's dress ends up at a Hard Rock somewhere for the world to see. My issue is this auction is not exclusively for charity. I have never seen something like this before. It tells you it was Mick that concocted this idea since he has not much royalties and touring cash to get him by. He leads one of the biggest bands in rock and does meet and greets for a few hundred dollars. How could anyone sell their RRHOF award for cash and not exclusively for charity? That's a first for rock. It's pathetic to sell it. I applaud Stevie and Lindsey for not taking part.

Why wouldn't they just turn this stuff over to the RRHOF for a permanent FM exhibit? I know the answer is "they won't make any money off of it". It's so sad the artifacts of this great band are getting piece mealed off like this. |

I'm still wondering which Live recordings they intend to offer and if they include video footage. Hopefully whatever shows they have will be ones we have never seen & heard already.

After that, she designed the bodies of his crazy looking guitars. He begged her!

Same thing about Christine- of all of the members, she is the least sentimental. Frankly, I’m stunned she still has that dress from the back of the Rumours cover. A pack rat who keeps mementos of their tours, photo shoots, recordings, and clothing and accessories would seem to describe Stevie, not Christine. I wonder how much the cutout board of John would fetch? I admit I’m curious to see how well those items do sell, but I don’t mind they’re doing this. I’m sure they talked it over with their families and the survivors of their estate don’t want them, so why not sell them? They get money and folks who pay that much will certainly take care of the items in question. It’s not like someone’s gonna buy those awards so they can be melted for scrap. I’m getting a sense of “I already hate Mick so now I can add this to the list of reasons why I hate him.” |

Anybody notice in the Billboard article it mentions Lindsey as a member of Fleetwood Mac and doesn't mention Mike or Neil?
"The two other members of the celebrated quintet — Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks — are not involved with the auction." |

Since this thread was announcing the auction, Micks RRHOF award sold for $16k which included a magazine with photos of the band with the award. It sold for average estimated worth. I still cant believe he sold it. Regardless of what you think of the Hall of Fame, its an exclusive club. Is Mick the only one that sold his award? I am sure he spent the $16k by now.
