Wow, I get the complete opposite from Richard. He seems to be reaching out to the fans in a genuine, meaningful, and substantive way that NO ONE in the Fleetwood Mac world has ever bothered to do. He's been so incredibly generous with his time and money. He's given away thousands of dollars to fans he's never met through his blog, provided us with dozens of unseen pictures, and given us an intimate insiders look at the band we've never experienced before. I never, ever expected his blog to last more than a couple of months, and yet he seems to be determined to keep going despite some truly insulting, crazy people. While I think it's true he's probably doing this blog as a personal catharsis as well as for the fans, I certainly respect the hell out of the man for being as candid and generous as he has.
Here, here. Richard seems to have to repeatedly point out to rather rude people that he is not doing this for any fame or fortune. He has been very accommodating and kind and fair.
Poor Mick and his family and extended FM family. 98.5 years is a wonderful lifetime, but it still is his mom. It would be very hard for all of them. He's had a rough week, I hope he takes some time for himself and those around him who love him. We all love him, that's for sure.
