Quote (Elf @ Nov. 25 2009, 03:56) | Well, there are numerous possibilities here. Maybe she has mellowed as the years have passed, maybe she has decided that saying things like she did 11 years ago wasn't the wisest thing to do, maybe her manager who had to calm her down back then has whispered things in her ear, or maybe the journalists made it all up.
All I know is that quite a few people that have been interviewed by me and others from his fan base, who used to be around Mike in that period, have all said Maggie and Mike did not get along, because of the aforementioned reasons. |
Interesting, and your right though, she may have "softened" a bit. That happens, I am just saying what she was saying. And I wanted to point out that I was disputing what you said originally, just thought I would add that in if you felt I was disputing it. Sorry mate.

Nope, I meant Blue Night and Nights on Fire, that is what Maggie said to me.
Quote (Elf @ Nov. 25 2009, 03:56) | Which I've always found interesting, since they, according to several sources, did not get along at that time. Anita Hegerland also said to me that one of the reasons she was called in to do PITD was that Maggie and Mike had a falling out. |
Who knows what really went on between them at this time eh?
Quote (Elf @ Nov. 25 2009, 03:56) | She needed the work? Or maybe it's just one of those up and down relationships. |
Well this was a benefit concert she was involved with, and she asked Simon and Mike to be a part of it. I agree, it might be one of those up and down relationships.
Quote (Elf @ Nov. 25 2009, 03:56) | That's pretty much what he said to me as well when I interviewed him in the 90s. He was really complimentary about Mike, and told me stories about how they played Yatzy while waiting for the computer to calculate the changes they had just requested.
Anyway, looking forward to reading your interview, if it becomes available online. |
My interviews are on a member based group I am a Moderator for. I have done many interviews, and am waiting for Sally Oldfield to give me her answers in January, as she is sick right now. Can't wait for that. I would like an opinion on my interviews though, get some feedback from someone who has no doubt more experience in this stuff than I do. I am no professional. LOL
