(INTERVIEW) EASYMIX 98.2 WITH MICK FLEETWOOD

Thanks to New Zealand Radio Station Easymix 98.2 and Tim Roxborogh for another Mac Interview.

You can listen to a couple of interview segments from the Easymix 98.2 interview with Mick Fleetwood this morning in New Zealand.

It's funny, and interesting how the story of Lindsey mocking Stevie on stage in New Zealand 30 years ago and chucking a guitar at her, changes every time a different member of the band is asked about memories of their last show there. Now Mick believes it was a lighting rig issue on stage that went on.

I'll go with Stevie's rendition of what went on!

LINDSEY CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY A WEEK EARLY

Lindsey Buckingham was surprised this past weekend
with a 60th Birthday Party in LA.

Lindsey's actual Birthday is October 3rd, but since Fleetwood Mac's Unleashed Tour resumes on October 8th in Copenhagen, and he's likely heading over to Europe a little earlier - he celebrated a week early.

Happy (early) Birthday Mr. Buckingham!

FLEETWOOD MAC PRODUCER PASSES AWAY

Greg Ladanyi, producer/engineer of Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits collection and 1990's Behind The Mask has passed away at the age of 57.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Maple Jam Music Group President, Greg Ladanyi, today, at the age of 57. Ladanyi sustained severe head trauma following an on-stage accident last Friday in the Greek Republic of Cyprus. Ladanyi was immediately rushed to a local hospital where he remained in critical condition over the weekend. He was in Cyprus touring with Maple Jam Music artist, Anna Vissi.

(INTERVIEW) MICK FLEETWOOD BELIEVES SARA IS ABOUT HIM

Listen To Easy Mix Thursday, October 1st., Tim Roxborogh To Interview Mick Fleetwood

The rock 'n' roll legend that is Mick Fleetwood from Fleetwood Mac ahead of their December tour. Mick will reveal why he believes Stevie Nicks wrote the song "Sara" about him and whether or not there will be a Fleetwood Mac movie.

GOOD NEWS FOR LINDSEY BUCKINGHAMS YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Several sources are confirming rumors that the Warner Music Group has finalized a new relationship with YouTube that will see their artists return to the top rated video channel. The deal will be announced as soon as WMG's new videos are delivered and encoded for play.

WMG is also back in talks with Vevo, the new Universal, Sony and YouTube sponsored music channel currently in development. Both moves are part of a broader Warner Music strategy to increase income from videos by using non-exclusive deals to spread their artists across a wide variety of ad supported channels.

Quite some time ago now, for those not aware, Warner Music and Youtube had a disagreement over royalty payments on Warner Music Group videos on Youtube and subsequently started pulling artists signed with Warner off their site. Video Channels including Lindsey Buckingham's were pulled down... If this news is true, we should see his channel reinstated on Youtube.
