Well, let's see...two out of the three guys that were standing there are either current or former Fleetwood Mac members, the music the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band plays is "original Fleetwood Mac" material. But, yeah, a big faux pas by the co-host...but, not anything to get overly upset about.

Kudos to Rick Vito for giving kudos to the house band members.

That is actually how I took it. Those t.v hosts are just idiots though,but i am in no way overly upset. I Enjoy Rick Vito and when he was in Fleetwood Mac Officially I loved that era. I also enjoy "the original" Fleetwood mac. I just dont post my love as much as you do about them, because Stevies still my favorite. But again, not that Im "upset". Just thought id share.

It appears that she thinks that Mick's name is "Fleetwood Mac."

The interviewer appears to be Carrie Ann Inaba (or however she spells her last name)...the female judge from Dancing with the Stars.

A couple of seasons back when one guy (can't remember his name) got booted off the show, they played GO YOUR OWN WAY, as he danced his last dance.

My experience at the Columbus/OSU Applebees' right by the arena on opening night of the SYW tour.

Me: "Going to the concert tonight!"

20 year old waitress: "Who's playing?"

Me: "Fleetwood Mac."

Waitress: "Oh! I LOVE him!"

It was also a great diservice to the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band, who is clearly not Fleetwood Mac, and had a nomination under it's belt.

There is another possiblility to all of this of course, that this band is now Fleetwood Mac, given that the Unleashed tour is over and there is no suggestion of a new album in sight. Perhaps Mick has decided to add a few new people to the band and the easiest way was just to turn the MFBB into Fleetwood Mac.

Actually, other than the absence of Mr McVie, I wouldn't be overly bothered by this...time moves on...
