Is there a ~NOT FM~ forum here? Oh yeah, CHIT CHAT.

Because folks are discussing who could have been talented enough to replace Lindsey. There are few individuals who can sing, write, play guitar, and produce at Lindsey's level.

That’s not at all the intention of this thread. I started it. It was supposed to be a humorous guess at who the mystery audition was.

I think that's a sign of the fact that it wasn't meant seriously...
And if you don't like the Lindsey Ledge as you keep calling it you don't have to come on here. This certainly isn't the only place where people talk about Fleetwood Mac, there are fans everywhere online who's discusssion you might prefer.

Thanks. Please kindly point me towards a Fleetwood Mac fan forum that isn't obsessively focused on the alternative reality of Lindsey being victimized by the evil forces of Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks.

Go ask one of your sources.

I guess maturity isn't one of your traits although consistency is. I'm serious. I'd be happy to find a Fleetwood Mac fan forum that isn't focused on how Lindsey is a victim. If you know of one, please let me know.

People don't really use forums anymore, this is one of the exceptions (I don't know if there are even are any other FM forums) but I'm sure you will be perfectly happy with the discussion on various FM Facebook groups, Stevie Nicks Facebook groups, fanpages on Instagram and also twitter! The internet is a very big place filled with opinions, have fun!

There is/was the one attached to the BuckinghamNicksInfo site but since the owner disappeared from the web it has understandably gone dormant.

I agree that most forums have moved to Facebook but many still exist on their own. Neil Finn and all things Finn have a fantastic fan forum that's still fairly active. Would be ideal if this forum were a true Fleetwood Mac forum instead of a Lindsey Buckingham forum but life is imperfect.

Apparently, you lack reading comprehension.

TREAD TITLE:
“Who was the first audition speculation”

Speculation:
noun
1. the forming of a theory or conjecture without firm evidence.

PREMISE OF THREAD:
“Just for fun, who do you think the other audition was and why?”

“Just for fun” implies that this isn’t a serious thread. It’s just for fun.

And, the only objection I had was to John Mayer. I’d love nothing more than Richard Thompson to be in the band, but he operates in a polar opposite way from Fleetwood Mac.

What do you guys think of the idea of Steeleye Span joining Fleetwood Mac? It's just an idea I had.
