Age Range: 40

Gender: Female

When you became a fan: Technically in 1997 after seeing The Dance, but officially in 2007 when I discovered BuckinghamNicks.net.

How you became a fan: I fell in love with the song "Silver Springs" on the radio in '97. In 2007, I saw Lindsey's Soundstage and looked up Lindsey and Stevie on web.

First 3 FM songs: "Silver Springs", "Gypsy", "The Chain"

First FM vocalist: Toss up between Stevie & Lindsey

Favorite FM Time Period: 1975-1979, 1982, 1997.

Vocalist breakdown by percentage: Stevie - 35% Lindsey - 35%, Chris - 30%

Concerts you've attended: Stevie - Atlanta GA 2008, Lindsey - Atlantic City 2008, FM - Atlanta 2009 & Nashville 2009.

FM stuff you own: All the BN lineup cd's.

Favorite thing about FM: The marriage of the music, lyrics and production, the chemistry in the band.

Least favorite thing about FM: How it's used as a vehicle of sorts and maybe abused a bit by that.

Are you the same fan your where when you started: No, but it's still sort of fresh in some ways and especially when they are all actively working on projects we know about.

Your all time "dream" lineup that won't ever happen: I guess Christine returning, but I love 'em as they are too.

You wish for the future of the Mac: A final new album and respectful farewell tour with at least one Christine performance. Then, the release of Buckingham Nicks and a tour. And whatever projects they do after that.

I would love to see Men of Mac - I think they would have an absolute ball on stage, just the three of them.

And Mick and John might be able to persuade Lindsey (ie. arm twisted up his back) to come and do some gigs in England

When you became a fan:1996

How you became a fan: My mom, dad, sister and I lived at my grandmother's house while our house was being built for a year and a half in 1996 to 1997.

Its amazing to put things into perspective. I never thought I would be going to the record store to buy a new Stevie/Lindsey LP in college.

Your all time "dream" lineup that won't ever happen:Original Rumors line-up

You wish for the future of the Mac:Two more studio albums

You wish for the future of the Mac: I wish Christine would come back to make an album with them, but it'll never happen.

Age Range: getting too close to 40 for my liking

Gender: male

When you became a fan: about 15-16 years ago

How you became a fan: Heard a few FM songs on the radio, bought the greatest hits album and went from there.

First 3 FM songs: Little Lies, Rhiannon and probably another one

First FM vocalist:
Stevie

Favorite FM Time Period: Walker/Welch/Weston

Vocalist breakdown by percentage: 6.25% each (and yes I know that technically Mick only did two "songs", John only did backing vocals on The Dance tour and Brunning only did vocals on his own solo work (but C & W Blues is a great song)).

Concerts you've attended: 2 x Fleetwood Mac, 1 x Stevie Solo

FM stuff you own: all the albums and quite a few DVDs

Favorite thing about FM: The depth of vocal talent through 44 years...

Least favorite thing about FM: Is it fair to say Christine McVie? No? Oh well then maybe Dave Mason.

Are you the same fan you were when you started:
No. I started off being one of those one-eyed Stevie fans, and eventually became a fan of Fleetwood Mac as a whole.

Your all time "dream" lineup that won't ever happen: Peter, Mick, John, Jeremy and Rick.

You wish for the future of the Mac: New members. I'm over this whole Stevie/Lindsey thing. How about finding us some new talent Mr Fleetwood?

Age Range: I was in college when I became a fan in 1975. You do the arithmetic.

Gender: girl

When you became a fan: In 1974 or 1975, don't remember exactly.

How you became a fan: I was introduced to the band by a classmate shortly before the 'White Album' was released. When the 'White Album' came out I bought a copy and at first thought Lindsey was the girl and Stevie the guy! (Well, Stevie Wonder and Stevie Winwood are guys, right?) When I saw them for the first time in Oct. of '75 I was hooked for life.

First 3 FM songs: I heard the 5 Bob Welch era albums first so all the songs from them.

First FM vocalist: I guess Christine, Bob, Danny and to a lesser extent Jeremy.

Favorite FM Time Period: Welch era, although I like them all (with the possible exception of the Bekka era ... sorry ... can't stand her singing style.)

Vocalist breakdown by percentage: Impossible to quantify. Christine is #1 by a country mile, but everybody else is on there too.

Concerts you've attended: I think I saw the full 'Rumours' era band six times. I've seen Christine, Bob and Peter once each.

FM stuff you own: All the albums, most of them on both CD and vinyl, most in multiple copies. All of Christine's solo records, all of Bob's (I think) and quite a few solo records by other members. I have a couple of books. A t-shirt from the Tusk tour and a t-shirt from the Christine tour.

Favorite thing about FM: The music; the variety of the music throughout their history; and the fact that the band survives, no matter what.

Least favorite thing about FM: The fact that they are sometimes put in a category with "soft rock" or "California rock" bands. They are so much better than that. Other least favorite things are the absence of Christine, and the relatively short tenure of the brilliant Danny.

Are you the same fan your where [sic] when you started: Of course not.

Your all time "dream" lineup that won't ever happen: I'll go with Peter, Mick, John and Christine.

You wish for the future of the Mac: That their music will live forever and that people 100 years from now will still be listening.

Age Range: 40 something

Gender: male

When you became a fan: Early 80's

How you became a fan: The Gypsy and Hold Me videos caught my attention. My Mom bought me Rumors by accident thinking it was the tape with those songs! A very happy accident

First 3 FM songs: Gypsy, Dreams, Rhiannon

Favorite FM Time Period: Mirage-Tango

Concerts you've attended: 2 or 3 in Ohio in the early 1990s and a few in Arizona in the 2000s

FM stuff you own: Really cool "Rumors" mirror I found at a yard sale, a new 8 tracks, most of the vinyl

Favorite thing about FM: Their songs realy speak to me

Least favorite thing about FM: Lack of releases! Lots of music on vinyl the label has never released on cd

Are you the same fan your where when you started: This is a hard one. Sort of I guess!

Your all time "dream" lineup that won't ever happen: The Rumour lineup! One more tour Christine?

You wish for the future of the Mac: Re-release music previously availabe on vinyl or promo only on cd!
