I've met Don Henley a few times as well, and he couldn't have been nicer. Hey, wasn't it Fleetwood Mac that used to refer to fans as "punters"? It's only of late that Lindsey's been seriously reaching out to fans. Stevie always had some means of having fan contact either by her former fan mail lady, the "edge walk" and she still takes fan mail via the web site connection on Nicks Fix. Lindsey's website and Q&A are totally new ventures. Any contact Mick has had with fans has chiefly been about raising money. John McVie has probably been the kindest with the fans and did a Q&A here. I don't think as a whole Fleetwood Mac has been particularly fan friendly. Some of it, in the early days, had to due with security issues-- for both bands actually. The Eagles most recent album has probably already gone platinum.
As mylittledemon put it best, they all probably have their good and bad days. But large crushing groups of fans tend to unnerve anyone. The pictures DavidMN has put up look like he's in chiefly been in a moment where the giant swarms of fans aren't present. You've been quite lucky David.
