I must be one of the few that likes Oh Diane. It's kind of silly but his voice sounds so nice.

I've grown to like it. Just think it's still kind of out of place.

Christines Instagram has a pic of her looking like she's in CA judging by the Bouganvillia behind her. Someone claims it was taken in Santa Monica. Not sure if this is an old pic or not.

I can relate to the FM/Stevie not cool thing.

I was already catching heat for liking them
in about 1983.

Doesn't that happen to a lot of bands or singers? There's a phase where they're the talk of the town and then they're not cool anymore but then they get their 'legend' status.

I've found that Fleetwood Mac and Stevie are becoming more popular among "hipsters" and those that hate hipsters now also hate the bands they like...

In my experience at least they're not popular amongst hipsters in particular, they're just popular amongst younger people in general. They're probably the most popular of those older bands of that time. Hipsters I know listen to like Halsey or The 1975 or that kind of thing. I'm not sure if they really listen to older music that much (especially what people consider "easy listening") except for like David Bowie. They're into the artsy like edgy type of thing not the mainstream that's why everyone is annoyed by them.

And dead artists so that they can say they were already listening to them before all the other people remembered about them after their deaths. I predict that from now on a lot of hipsters will start to listen to Leonard Cohen.

LOL yeah pretty much. That happened with Bowie after he died suddenly all these people were the biggest Bowie fans yet they knew about 2 or 3 songs. That didn't happen with Glenn Frey.
FM are 'cool' now in general but I wouldn't call them a big hipster thing, that's more of like indie-rock or random small bands or weird stuff that type of thing.
