huge chunk of the audience at FM shows are SN fans. the other huge chunk are fans of the old legendary bands who want to see the name brand band while at least some of them are still around.

that is different from Fleetwood Mac fans.

Yeah, I guess you could call a band with Christine McVie, John McVie, Mick Fleetwood Fleetwood Mac.

I get it, but not Elle's point. Maybe you didn't understand what Elle's saying. You're in the ballpark tho.


And by the way, if we're keeping score here, that entity above you mentioned was called "Buckingham McVie". And we both know why that wasn't called Fleetwood Mac, now don't we?

I hope bwboy is admonished for bringing up Trump and the election. And for asking elle if she thought Trump won the election. That was really disrespectful and it reads as if bwboy was trying to insult elle's intelligence.

I was admonished for highlighting Stevie's actions towards a person of color. So only right.

I don't think so. Bwboy was trying to say the repetition of what Trump does. . I think it all got caught up in the spirit of disagreement. Anywho, I didn't read it as a shot to Elle. Bwboy is a nice poster, we just disagree on Stevie.

Do I even want to know about Stevie's actions towards a POC?

Read Lindsey's interview. He compares Fleetwood Mac members to Trump and the republicans i.e. surrender your soul, your beliefs, your core, your legacy, your morals for fear of the wrath of the tyrant.

Its completely fair to talk about.

I tell you....this is the first tour I've missed since Rumours(because I was too young for that one - I was too young for Tusk, but got my older cousin to take me).

Because $tevie RUINED the brand, by getting Lindsey fired.

So there you have it. Lifelong rabid fan, lost. This is $tevie's FM now.

NOT INTERESTED.
