Default Who the hell are they?

I came across this website.
http://www.themusic-world.com/artist/fleetwood_mac

For a while I was so confused by the picture- I just couldn't figure out who or what the picture is. I found it through an image search for 'Joe Walsh and Stevie Nicks'. For a while I thought the 'Stevie' might actually have been her but I couldn't figure out who she was with.

I'm guessing this site has inadvertently used the picture of a tribute band by mistake. Anyone know who they are?

Anyway, I also found it intriguing this site chose such a really odd set of songs for their '10 Top Songs' list;

1 Silver Springs
2 Go Your Own Way
3 Everywhere
4 Say You Will
5 Can't Go Back
6 Affairs Of The Heart
7 Peacekeeper
8 Book Of Love
9 Do You Know
10 The Chain

Somebody actually thought up that list- not saying its bad- just a rather curious selection.

What planet did that website come from? That photo is hysterical. Its like a Halloween look alike costume band. The list of songs is a grab bag from just about everywhere.

Very odd to say the least/

Looks like an old abandoned site...If you start poking around it does not look like it's been updates in years...Where is it from? in the upper right hand corner it says "Switch to Russian"

The "band" is actually a group of Fleetwood Mac impersonators, they are not only a cover band but actors of the band members:


Rumours (A Tribute To Fleetwood Mac)


At Last! An act that goes beyond a Band. A show that goes beyond a concept! See and experience Fleetwood Mac the way they really were – a sensational and enduring band of the 70’s and 80’s – by a talented group of musicians dedicated to the task of bringing this era, this sound to the stage for all to enjoy.
Before your eyes, see this concept take shape – the fabulous costumes of the 70’s, especially those worn by the two beautiful “Mac” ladies – Stevie and Christine. Hear the magical Fleetwood Mac sound, reproduced to the highest degree of authenticity, by this committed team of musicians who genuinely love what they are doing.
This is total impersonation! This is something special! Formed on the Gold Coast of Queensland in 1995, the band consists of five musicians who have pooled their talents and energies to achieve a combination that is hard to equal. A tight, punchy rhythm section, guitar work which varies from sensitive to screaming, combined with piano and keyboards both rich and full. Add to this, the harmonies of four superb vocalists, and Fleetwood Mac, at it’s best, lives again.
Introducing Simmone Fellows, the mysterious and charismatic Stevie Nicks – Fleetwood Mac’s breathtaking songbird. Also featuring Debbie Hinton as the alluring and brilliant keyboardist and vocalist Christine McVie. Graeme Thompson is at his best as the solid Bass Master – John McVie. He is the “Mac” of Fleetwood Mac. See Tony Cowell portray the Moody, artistic and sensitive Song & Guitar man – Lindsay Buckingham. And to compete the show, the powerful drum sound of Mick Fleetwood, the creator and Mentor of Fleetwood Mac, – superbly delivered by Terry Gascoigne.
This is without doubt, one of the best musical concept shows to come out of Australia.

P.S. "Mick Fleetwood" looks more like Tom Petty.

I just thought they were two different colors -- one blue and one brown -- but now I think you might be right.

The guy in the middle and the guy above Stevie look like other rock band look a likes.At this point I cant recall who but the guy above Chris likes like one of the Beach boys and also look like Mr Bush.

The Chris girl looks like Chris alittlebit and Stevie girl looks like the youngest in the group.

I played the demo clip and like how they sound.They sound great.



They are from Australia as I understand from their webpage .I would not mind seeing them in the states of they come around.

Yes.Its strange at times of what FM and its members info and photos/vids/audio pops up in a Google /Yahoo search.

I hope the photo of me in my FM bikini underwear that I had made out of an old FM tee shirt pops up in the searches LOL......

Only kidding.LOL.....Don't bother looking ...............Have a happy weekend.

Hey, they don't sound bad at all- though Simmone Fellows sounds a lot more like Bonnie Tyler than Stevie Nicks.

I wonder why all the songs sampled are Stevie's, they should show all the three singers' interpretations.
