As for the band not doing Peter's stuff these days, I don't know why, but I suspect that they dropped "Oh Well" because Peter Green is/was back recording and touring, and maybe they didn't feel the need to carry on his legacy anymore.

If it had been a big issue for the band to keep a lot of the pre-1975 material in, you'd think Christine in particular would have butted heads with Lindsey about that. We all know she was often against Lindsey's experiments in the studio, so why couldn't she resist him well enough in the subject of setlists? After all, it was her own songs that were on the line too. But then maybe she preferred to play the songs that she liked better than whatever she had written in the past (save perhaps the songs from Mystery To Me). If those fans you're talking about were bothered by something, I think it was mainly due to the static setlists that the band adopted at some point during the Rumours tour (we all know how they changed the sets every night prior to mid-1977). But I think I already said why that happened, it was the fault of the band in general; it wasn't just a bunch of friends playing together anymore, but a group of people doing business with each other and concentrating on all the side-effects of the success in full. It was the easiest choice for them to play the same setlist every night rather than to start rehearsing something they hadn't played before in the middle of a tour. Quote:

However, the attitude that Lindsey has about feeling like a lounge guitarist whenever he played the old songs seems pretty goofy. Everybody knows that he wouldn't do those songs if he wasn't in Fleetwood Mac, just as Fleetwood Mac wouldn't do a Buckingham Nicks song without either he or Stevie being in the band (although, "Crystal" and "Don't Let Me Down Again" could be exceptions, as they were also released under the Fleetwood Mac moniker). I will say that if the CURRENT personnel play a Buckingham Nicks song live, they should also play a pre-1975 song, to be fair.

The fact of the matter is that you guys see a sort of nostalgia-laden metaphysical interconnection between all the various incarnations of the Mac -- so do I, but only in a figurative sense. In other words, in practical terms (in terms of individual psychology & preference), "Fleetwood Mac" is a fiction: nothing more than a series of songwriters & singers & musicians that followed or preceded one another in various specific groupings along a certain timeline. But you really take "Chain, keep us together" literally in the sense that you want the metaphysical binding of that "Chain" to apply to pragmatic elements, such as set lists & so forth. To me, that's crying for the moon. It's like extinguishing the fire in the fireplace so that Santa won't get scorched. Steve, did I ever say how glad I really am that you're posting on this board a lot more? You & I go waaaaaaaaaay back, you ol' son-of-a-gun, you.
