It's no longer unexpected but Bob's solo version of Sentimental Lady has been added into the nightly rotation of music where I work. So whenever I work at night I hear it along with either Stop Dragging My Heart Around or Tusk. Peacekeeper used to be in the morning rotation up until about 2 years ago. Paper Doll used to be in at night.

This may not really qualify for 'unexpected FM', but today I found the Triad book for 10 cents at a library sale!!. I read it once about 18 years ago and I am glad to own it!!

Funny thing, I listen to CT radio myself (as you probably know, Long Island is about 20 miles away, across the Sound) and I can easily pick stations up. The rock stations there and 103.9 WRCN (a hard-to-pick-up Long Island rock station that I figured out the problem was rooted in te fact that it's boradcasted for further out east than me) like to play the Mac a lot, and they always seem to be played when i'm thinking about how a guy wronged me in some way.

One day recently, as I was driving around, listening to 99.1 WPLR (that's a very good New Haven rock station) thinking about how at this time last year, my now-former BF would have come over and zonked out watching TV on my couch, The Chain came on. Strange coincidence, huh?

I was in the bank today, at an appointment, to make a new bank account so I had the correct one for my student accommodation form, when I heard Everywhere being played in like, the main office area. I was so distracted I totally zoned out what the person was saying to me xD

The bank is the last place I ever expected to hear Fleetwood Mac, I must admit.

Not exactly unexpected but...I was having dinner with a friend earlier and she told me she was listening to XM in the car and thought of me because "Fleetwood Whack" came on. She didn't really mean to say that, just came out wrong. But it was hysterical to hear that. Anyway, I asked her what song and she said something with lies in it...So I"m like, "oh, Little Lies".

When i left the restaurant and was driving home..guess what song came on...

Just wanted to share...made me laugh which was definitely needed after having a long week.

Bonus--I asked her today if she wants to go see Stevie with me next month in AC and she is on board!

I was out to dinner with my family and Don't Stop came on in the restaurant :)

Well it really wasn't unexpected because I picked it out on the Jukebox thing they had :rolleyes:
I picked all 3 Fleetwood Mac songs they had hoping all 3 would play but they didn't. The other 2 were Second Hand News and Blue Letter. I really wanted Blue Letter to play though because I've never heard it before outside of listening to it on my ipod :(

I flicked over to one of our local radio stations the other day and heard Think About It. I was more than slightly surprised. I did a double-take to make sure I hadn't put the CD or iPod on instead, but nope, regular ol' radio station.

Turns out though they weren't being completely random, but Bella Donna was the album of the day on Cover to Cover, a neat little show they do where they profile one particular album (the making of it etc. ). But at least for a fleeting moment I thought the world had become totally awesome. :D

Bloody hell 'Oh Diane' has just been playing in the background on Coronation street!

Some Pita van called Fleet-a-Pita just pulled up on The Simpsons playing Don't Stop :lol:

Ok you are across the little pond.I've notice WHCN plays alot of Stevie/FM from time to time,but I get sick of the new tunes mixed in. I have to try 103.9 WRCN ,but 104.1 probably interfere WRCN.WPLR is a awesome station to tune in too.

104.1 must be the one mixing in with WRCN when I get closer to Stony Brook (yeah, I go to school there and i listen to the radio as I drive up, but I noticed many times how I'd be rocking out to something, and there'd be static and Taylor Swift trying to butt in).

Another good LI rock station is 102.3 WBAB. They play some newer stuff, but plenty of older tunes too. Now, if you want a quick and easy way to rip your hair out, listen to 106.1. It's WBLI, our top 40 station that'll overplay a sng so much that you'll want to personally strangle the artist responsible for recording that song lol.

GUYYYS, Say you love me on a french radio right now :woohoo: ! That's unexpected, here !

chazlightyear 07-21-2010 06:08 PM

They played 'The Chain' twice on bbc1 tonight and it was nothing to do with formula 1!

Sleepless-Child 07-22-2010 04:48 PM

Just back home from a night out in our tiny town, where there's often music played, you know, on loudspeakers everywhere, and i heard a familiar solo. It was the one from Hold Me. HOLD ME ! Not Don't Stop, or Rhiannon, or whatever, but HOLD ME ! I almost cried :laugh:. If this Fleetwood Mac wave continues, i won't call it "unexpected" anymore.
