Or they've been pretending to be volatile. Or they've been convinced by their own myth that they're volatile, and have only acted out on that.
Imagine in an alternative reality that the band's audience had invested more interest in the music and the instrumental and vocal craft of Fleetwood Mac than in the epic psychodrama. Would there have even
been an epic psychodrama? The latter is like the
Iliad; after fifty years, no one knows whether it started as true and degenerated, or whether it was originally written by a single visionary and then picked up by an oracular committee of fellow bandmembers and rock press, or whether the it is the only actual, verifiable truth about the band—all those other stories about them playing instruments in a cool way or singing in weirdly wondrous three-part harmony being just press agent fluff.
The shippers think
they're hurt? How about those of us who thought the band's achievement was its music?
