What happens today?? THE MAC POLL
 

This is the last time i try.. is it me or what??

I picked the Rumours line-up, although I didn't mind the BTM or Time periods so much... but first choice of those three would be Rumours...

I was a Stevie fan before I got into the Mac, so I chose that. But if I listen to a FM album, Im not a person to skip everything but Stevie's stuff. But then again, I don't think much of any of the albums that FM made in which Stevie was not involved (I don't like the transitional years 70-74 or the "Time" period of FM. I do however like the Peter Green era :) )

Up until a few years ago I considered myself a FM fan whatever the lineup.

But since Christine left there's definately something missing.

If they tour in 2007 I probably wont go unless I have cast iron guarantees that she will be on stage. (she doesn't have to perform she could just do a little twirl)

Fan of just the Rumours line-up, a Stevie Nicks fan and a Lindsey Buckingham fan. :wavey:

I'm a Stevie Nicks fan, but I like the band. I hold Christine and Lindsey in high regard and like their music a great deal, but no one comes close to my La Nicks.

I like any line up. I think Say You Will was a incomplete album with tons of filler. I don't like their live stuff much anymore due to them repeating every note and every talking line in every show for 100 times a year, with worn out voices. I guess I would have to say this line-up now is my least favorite due to sub-par performances. They don't sound too good to my ears currently.

I love those "transitional" years a whole lot. I don't know why. And I wasn't crazy about them in my first years of fanaticism. But in recent years they have taken on a burnished glow, a soft satiny lustre, steeped in the honeyed memory of nostalgia, like that moment in art history when the Barbizon School gave way to the summer sun of Impressionism.

Plus, I now like the actual sound of the band in the early '70s! Maybe it's because it's the style of band I always wanted to be in but never found. To me, "Dragonfly" is the epitome of the style of those years.

That's about the smartest thing you've ever said.:shrug: ;) :D

I picked any line up because Im a fan all Fleetwood Mac eras. My favorite era is 1973-1980, which includes the best of the Bob Welch years with the best of the Rumours era. I adore the first 3 Rumours era albums, but seriously Mirage and Tango in the Night just aren't that good to these ears. In fact I'd say those 2 albums are my least favorite albums in all of Fleetwood Mac's catologue.

I like almost any lineup of FM, although I'm not a big fan of the 1994 tour lineup, though I do like Bekka. Dave Mason just does nothing for me. Also, the current lineup seems more like a stale version of Buckingham Nicks with backing musicians. I miss Christine badly. :distress:

it probably is homie

I put other in the sense that I do enjoy the entire history of Fleetwood Mac, but I lean more towards the newer stuff. Anyone however that neglets pre 1975 Fleetwood Mac material is doing themselves a disservice in my opinion. But everyone has their own tastes.:)

Hey now!:laugh: Ahh what the heck, I really do enjoy them now, but to each their own.
