Ok...let's work on a retitle to this Forum, as well.

[chiliD]

How about "Behind The Time" or "The Mask Of Time" or something along those lines. "Post-Rumours" seems just as condescending as "Pre-Rumours", as there are those whose Fleetwood Mac fandom DID NOT and still DOES NOT revolve around Rumours.

But what defies logic, in my book(as I've stated before), is that FM without Lindsey was POST Rumours, but FM without Christine(who had the most hits!), is still Rumours. I flag bullsh*t on that classification.

Perhaps all except the Rumours(and the Stevie) forum(s) should be named, there ain't no goat here, so don't waste your time.

THE CURRENT INCARNATION BELONGS IN THE POST RUMOURS FORUM.

[Sanne2]

"The Rick & Billy Years" or "1987 - 1995" (or rather "1990 - 1995"?)
As for the Rumours forum "Rumours & current line-up", not very imaginitive but eh.

I'll presume you're calling Stevie Nicks a goat, because she did cocaine. On that basis Lindsey, Mick, John and Christine are also goats. And Peter Green too. Hey, it was the seventies (and sixties)!

The current incarnation of Fleetwood Mac should be called the Say You Will line-up. Why not just have three separate forums for Behind the Mask, Time and Say You Will?

I presume the goat reference is due to Stevie's infamous vibrato than the cocaine.

I would suggest "Everyone who came after Rumours, but aren't part of the Rumours lineup", but that would be pushing it. In other words, I really don't have any idea how to rename this forum.

I was wondering when this would come up on this forum! For what I understand these titles have been used for a very, very long time here on the Ledge. Though I am curious about what long-time Ledgies think.

What do goats have to do with cocaine?

Thank you for interpreting me.

Shaking the Mask of Time Years! :

Maybe taking a page from Gilligan's Island we can just say 'And The Rest'?

or maybe 'The Wonder Years'?

It is pretty hard to disentangle this period from the Rumours line-up...

I feel a bit worried things could escalate out of control.

[chiliD]

How about renaming the "Rumours" forum "The 5 Fireflies" (1975-87 & 1997)

Then this one could be "Who Cares?" (1987-96, 1998-current)
