Hi Christo--I actually have been an instructor for a Public Speaking class, and I agree that your thesis is way to broad. How long is your speech supposed to be? The informative speech for the class I taught was supposed to be 7 minutes, which is not really that long.

If you are still wanting to do a Fleetwood Mac related topic, try to narrow it to a very specific aspect of the band that makes it unique and interesting. Off the top of my head I'm thinking about the fact that Lindsey doesn't use a guitar pick. I know this might sound too narrow, but you could talk a little more broadly about guitar technique and how a pick-less sound helped define the band.

Good luck with it--remember it's not necessary to overwhelm your audience with info, but your speech will be better if it is a topic you yourself want to learn a little more about.
