It's probably a bit rude. I don't think I owe anyone the respect of not answering tho. Who cares what anyone here thinks?

Cool that you put Rick first, David! :thumbsup: Always pleasant to see the occasional good word about him here. If you read/listen to Rick's interviews, you can't help but be impressed by his class, his wit, and his ability to be articulate without being pompous.

IIRC, Rick graduated from college in Philly before heading west to make a name for himself with his guitar. It was asked earlier, but I'm curious as to how many of the band's past and present members are college grads?

"(ability to learn, understand, & solve abstract problems)"
I'm beginning to suspect David was in the math club with Rick in college...

P. S. A rude question? :shrug: Good heavens, we've discussed Stevie's boobs, S&L's sex lives (together and/or separately), Chris's hot legs, Mick's financial escapades -- why on earth would discussing intelligence be off-limits?

Stevie slept with two members of Fleetwood Mac, therefore she is the smartest.

LOLOL--True. I say, if you can pull off still touring and being civil people after you've slept with 2 men that you work closely with, you are damn smart. And I think Mick comes in right behind Stevie with his IQ, I take back Lindsey being the second smartest, because Mick slept with Stevie and THEN still cheesed in Lindsey's face was friends with him--that also qualifies him for pimp status. I love this band so much.

On the other hand, it could be a ringing endorsement as to the intelligence of the other fourteen who didn't. :D

Edit: I have to add, your sig pic is terribly unrealistic -- I mean, really, Stevie is nowhere near as tanned as P. Anderson. :p
Edited again: Ah, I see the pic has been deleted. Good, I can sleep without nightmares now.

Lindsey is a genius. If we're saying Stevie is intelligent for sleeping with two (possibly three, John you sly fox you) members of Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey is moreso for sleeping with Stevie in the first place.

All the members of FM are intelligent and sensitive individuals in their own way. End of story.

Rude? Surely not. The band has heard worse things about themselves.

Tasteless? Probably. That's why I haven't "rated" any of the members for myself... even for "fun" ;)

Also, I know that a lot of people believe that many of the men in Stevie's life didn't respect her as much as she thinks they did-- yet you can't deny that she knew how to use her sexuality wisely. She's slept with some of the most renowned artists of her time, also boosting her appearance as a sex symbol, again attributing to her level of fame. Plus, she got two great Bella Donna duets out of the deal :)

I think she can do some really ditzy things and I wouldn't bet my money on her to out-smart or musically triumph over most Fleetwood Mac members. Yet you can't deny the woman knows what she's doing.

amen:nod:~

I didn't rate Jeremy because it would be rude since he reads the forum, but I will say that I think he is one of the higher I.Q.s in the band's history. Stevie Nicks is easily the dumbest. But she's the biggest star, so there ya go. :nod:

I don't like vague comparisons. Give me a number. What do you put her IQ at, David? I call 120.


This is nonsense.
