Fleetwood Mac Should Have . . .
 
. . . used the marching band on "Sisters of the Moon" in concert.

. . . broken up after the Mirage Tour & then started making experimental snuff films for the international festival circuit.

. . . written social problem plays with Peter Green in the manner of Sean O'Casey.

. . . turned away from the mass/mob audience & done a club tour with Peter, Paul & Mary -- only acoustic guitars, acoustic basses & brushes.

. . . Been called "Mac Fleetwood" because bass players never get enough attention and also they could have opened a rival burger chain to boost profits.... :laugh:

. . . Toured England more f**kin' often...

. . . Let Stevie show the birds of Rhiannon more on stage... :thumbsup:

. . . Made sure Bob Welch was inducted into the Rock 'N' Roll Hall Of Fame with them... :mad:

...never reunited after Stevie and Chris left (I speak of the "Time" era :eek: ).

...used Go Your Own Way as the last song of the night.

...listened to Lindsey and become more avant-garde after Tusk.

...let Stevie speak a little more often early on (even though she didn't have much of interest to say. :laugh: )

So, it's all Mick's fault? Did no one else have a say?

I personally don't care whose fault it was it is an injustice, and really from what I know Mick has the most say in these kind of matters for some reason :shrug:

No Mick drum solos, ever.

Tango In The Night should have just been Buckingham/McVie, no Stevie.

Some of those terrific Rick Vito outtakes should have been on Behind The Mask.

Bob Welch should have been inducted into the Hall of Fame. If Jeremy & Danny deserved to be inducted(and they did), then Bob should have been inducted too.

Fleetwood Mac should have ended once and for all at the conclusion of the Dance tour.

Fleetwood Mac should have....

- no regrets. They are among the last of a dying breed - that is, a successful band that originated as a group of artists - musicians and songwriters - who were doing what they loved, and not because record industry types were telling them to

- great pride when they look back over the past 30+ years

- appreciation for their fans who have stayed with them through the ups and downs
