Otherwise, where do you draw the line? If a few months isn't enough, then does Dave Walker count? How many months/years are required for someone to be classified as a band member?

How many songs does someone have to contribute to? Would he be considered more important (and more of a band member) if he had been a vocalist rather than the bass player?

Well I defined MY line. But I agree that MINE should not be everyone's--and that someone should define exactly what constitutes a Mac member. On how many studio tracks did Bob play bass with no McVie?

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.
