Mick SHOULD have taken the hard stance (that Jerry Garcia did with the Grateful Dead) that it was EVERYBODY or NOBODY. Hence, Donna Jean Godchaux is in the R&RHoF with the Grateful Dead and Bob Welch isn't as a member of Fleetwood Mac. Which member of their respective bands had the greater influence? Get my drift?

I agree. And FM has always been Mick's LIFE. Meaning that (like Chili said) keeping Christine happy was going to the best "survival move" for keeping FM rolling(or getting her back in the future). Even if it was WRONG(which it was), Mick was throwing Bob under the bus, to stay in Chris' good graces.
