I'm getting a bit bored with this feller.
I get the impression he's latched onto Fleetwood Mac for guaranteed hits and subscribers. I appreciate he's a Fleetwood Mac fan but suddenly every other video he makes is a commentary on Fleetwood Mac. He knows what he's doing. And though I agree with a lot of what he says.... he also says a lot of $&!T too.

I got bored with him a long time ago. He's not really that knowledgeable about the band - he acts like he's an expert when he's clearly not. He has no insider knowledge; he has no credibility beyond that of your average YouTube commentator with a webcam (ie, zero). I don't know why people keep creating a thread every time he posts a Mac-related video.

Completely agree with these.

I’m with all of you on this guy. He posts something about FM daily - sometimes multiple times. For awhile i figured this guy has to be a Ledgie because he talks about the band so much. Now I’m convinced he’s just a hack who gets most of his knowledge from here and via YT comments. Seriously, a thread pops up here and the next day he’s blabbing on and on about the same thing. While I mostly agree with what he’s saying about the present incarnation of the band and what went down with Lindsey’s firing, I’ve grown to immensely dislike this clown and his videos. Dude is obsessed with Fleetwood Mac and Journey (or with the views he gets by continuing to post about them) and just posts random rant videos daily. I followed him for a little while and quickly realized he’s a hack and has no better knowledge of these bands than anyone else with internet access.

I concur.

But he's right. MOST casual fans had no idea what they were getting when they went to see FM. That penguin logo with NO pic was a huge indicator of what they were up to. As I said I know a bunch of people who were upset when they went to the concert and discovered there was no LB.

Yes, even though they list the names (in relatively small type, and in a semi-circle), failing to picture the current band membership is an act of obfuscation and bad faith.

I don't disagree with him. I just think he's a douche bag.
