Default Spreading the FM Love

I know that everyone gets excited when you expose someone to FM material, and they in turn fall in love with it, so I hope that you'll appreciate my story.

So I've been seeing this guy for a week, and he came over last night to watch a movie. I figured that he needed to realize early on how fanatical I am, so I said "Ok, before we watch a movie, I have to show you one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac moments." So I put in The Dance and skipped to Silver Springs. I paused it and gave him the background. "The inspiration for the song was Silver Springs, MD...it's written about Lindsay, the guy playing the guitar...was left off of Rumours....yadda, yadda..."

I play it for him, and he was "so knocked out". He was like "Can we watch it one more time?!?!" I said "You never have to ask me that." So we watched it again. Then he begged to watch it again. He said "Wow! So they're like up there talking to each other?!? All of this is between them!?!" He went on and on about it, so then I whipped out LIB so that we could compare the performances. Then we ended up watching The Dance in its entirety, and now he's excited to go out and buy Mac CDs. Yay! Another convert!!!
