FM is the only band I've ever been fanatical about, too.
I think my love for FM probably has ALOT to do with my age when I discovered Rumours. I was 14, and never very good at sports. I think I must've been searching for something..
. I absolutely fell in LOVE with Rumours, and spent countless hours alone in my bedroom, playing along with every song on trumpet!(sorry Mom.....RIP). I taught myself to play guitar and keyboards (and even drums, to some extent)from Rumours, and then Tusk.
I just......connected....... with Fleetwood Mac, like I never have with any other band.
If I were 10 years older, who knows, it might've been another band......or maybe even not music(I can't even fathom that now, it's pretty much my life).
