Based on where they were the most popular, stupid.

But they aren't the most popular in the US.

They have had more far more chart success outside of America. Please check your FM knowledge before you keep embarrassing yourself.

"They are an American band and they are most popular in the US.....

......And Stevie is a man and Lindsey a woman too perhaps

Moderators...I personally take offense to his name calling once again. Do SOMETHING for once in your lives about him. He should not be allowed to call anyone stupid.

Not that you took the time to read the whole thing, but he was called 'stupid' first.

Exactly. Thank you.

Buster called me a "f*cking pathetic loser", and that was allowed. "Stupid" is a walk in the park, compared to that. But I'm certain that JohnL doesn't see it that way.

It wasn’t really allowed, I got a 10 day ban. But I don’t regret saying what many people in this board think. Yes, I will claim to speak for others just like you do.

For someone who spends hours each day taking shots at people but keeping the language just tame enough to keep under the mods radar screen, you have ridiculously thin skin. And you are the primary reason few people want to engage on this forum. You can’t let 90% of posts go without comment, it’s an absurd obsession. You also have to steer discussion into the direction you want. And you’re a misogynist.

Try taking a breath once in a while when you read a post you don’t like. Try expressing your feelings about Stevie Nicks using adult words. Try to avoid needing to rally people to your side like you’re in high school. Let this be a true discussion board - where people are allowed to express themselves without getting pounded on the head by you each time. Just some advice.

Thank you for the education. We all know this isnt the first time that stuff like this has happened and is continually overlooked because of the cliques on this board.

Glad to educate you. Have a nice day.

You'd think people would be over the moon with the announcement of LB's tour dates.

And I never said that Lindsey doesn't belong in Fleetwood Mac. I did say that Lindsey appeared on less than half of Fleetwood Mac albums meaning that a large part of the band's discography doesn't include Lindsey. Lindsey is a part, albeit important part, of the band's history.

That being said, Lindsey has been a commercial flop as a solo artist. You can say that he's been an artistic success as a solo artist, but his solo albums have been commercial flops.

And it's odd that folks keep saying that no one knows who Neil Finn is. Neil is a legend in Australia/New Zealand. He's in the Australian Music Hall of Fame. He's also a big star in the UK and much of Europe. And he's also a mid-level star in the states where Don't Dream It's Over, Something So Strong, and I Got You were huge hit songs.

Agree with all of that not to mention you get the anthology if you buy a ticket to the show. I can't wait to see what's on there. Personally I'd love that version of Stephanie that plays over the PA pre show among many other things.

Agreed. Watching him during the BuckVie shows was so enlightening. He was relaxed and quite free.

It doesn't seem to be here. Although 80% of my FB feed has been all Lindsey today.
