replies: text: Unfortunately, the interview doesn't really explain much.  I'd love to know more (or rather, something) about the meaning (if any) of the song.  Captain Quirk (talk) 21:06, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Re: Tusk 

message: The History section states:
"The single was recorded live together with the supporting video at Dodger Stadium (without an audience)..."
:
The Music video section says:
"A live performance of the song recorded at Dodger Stadium with the USC Marching band was used as a music video."
:
It feels like there might be some confusion here. The History section is unsourced and the source for the Music video cites a long-dead blog of some sort quoting who knows what (hello, copyright vio). In any case, are these two separate occasions with USC? Did the Mac record their parts at the same time?
:
We need reliable sources to address this. I'm yanking the questionable archived blog. Any help? - SummerPhDv2.0 19:13, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

message: Why "Tusk"?
:Larry Vigon, the band’s art director during that period, said it originated from the elephant references in Beard’s artwork. And Beard himself added, succinctly, “The album was named Tusk because of all my photographs with tusks in them.”  (www.google.com.au/amp/s/www.rollingstone.com/feature/fleetwood-mac-tusk-things-you-didnt-know-896796/amp/. 2019 article). 
What is it about?
: I'm waiting for the 2049 Rolling Stone article.
: But, especially, why the word "tusk" is used in the lyrics.

thread_title:  What's it about (Part 2)? 

message: As a trombone player for the USC Trojan Marching Band, I can state that we may have been recorded playing something while we marched, but it was probably something like Tribute to Troy.
We play stationary all the time, including in studio.
For TUSK, we were spread out on the infield dirt (plenty of video and still show this) where mics were set up for the main recording, played over the same rough tracks we'd rehearsed to.  Those tracks were then taken and mixed for FM to then record their final versions.
Since we were playing over recording, there were no  'timekeeping' issues, other than the drum break:  it was hard for Art Bartner to conduct our rests.  Helpfully, Fleetwood put on some headphones, and basically clapped and stomped out the beats so we cocome back in cleanly. 76.166.190.6 (talk) 01:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the insight. Given the nature of Wikipedia, I unfortunately cannot add information unless it's from a verifiable published source, but I can remove the word "exclusively" from the main article. Dobbyelf62 (talk) 17:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
