Sounds lovely I want to meet your Scottie too if possible.

You went ALONE?!?! Sheebus, are you crazy?

One of the few movies that gave me nightmares.

It's great how this thread started about FM being 'done', and now we're on Silence of the Lambs. I? Love it.

That reminds me of that song Livia posted a while back, can't remember the band, but they put music to that dialogue and formed a song...that? was priceless!!!

I hate to burst your bubble, but Brian and I have specifically made mention that as far as the US is concerned, fleetwood mac didn't exist prior to Fleetwood Mac. You actually agree with our point in your last statement of FACT.

So at most a quarter million people prefer that incarnation of fleetwood mac, whereas mulit-millions prefer a Lindsey/Stevie Mac. It is also likely that Millions (using the math multi-millions - quarter of a million) of people do not even know of the prior fleetwood mac. Sorry, but them's the facts even as you state them.

and you know this how?? Dear, i'm speaking from a factual standpoint and you are speaking from a projective standpoint... i have facts on my side and you have fiction...

Again, without Lindsey and Stevie, there would be no Fleetwood Mac...or at least no one would have known about them... The success of that band has always and will always rest on the shoulders of Stevie and Lindsey... the "Time" album and everything prior to the white album is proof of this...
Is there a Fleetwood Mac without Lindsey and Stevie? sure.. does anyone care about that kind of "Fleetwood Mac"? nope!

I agree... but to suggest that Lindsey and Stevie were just two more members of the band in the same as Billy and Becca were is a little ridiculous... don't ya think?

Yeah I think without FM, stevie and lindsey would likely be just as unkown as those other incarnations of fleetwood mac.

No, because that would imply that Stevie and Lidnsey made Fleetwood Mac. They did not and never will. As long as it has John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, it's Fleetwood Mac. In the scheme of the band, Stevie and Lindsey were just two other members like Rick Vito and Bekka Bramlett. Obviously the Rumours line-up is the most popular, but they were still just two members of the band. Fortunately, the fact of the matter is that with or without Buckingham Nicks, Fleetwood Mac is a band that will go forward. They did in the nineties, and for years before Buckingham Nicks joined, and they will again if they choose to do so.

My favorite incarnation of FM is any with Lindsey, but I still love any lineup with Danny and I'm cool with Bob Welch and Peter Green. FM is a very special band because there is something for everyone...and a lineup as well. LOL

Don't care for Bob Welch, try Rick Vito.

Don't care for Stevie Nicks, try Bekka Bramlett.

Don't care for Peter Green, try Lindsey Buckingham.

Maybe, maybe not. They were VERY talented, they probably would have busted through some other way, I'm just sure of it...They might have gotten picked up by some other band or formed one of their own. They had lots of musical connections in California, music was in their blood, between the two of those hard-heads they would have made something happen. Now whether or not they would have become mega-stars without Fleetwood Mac, well, who knows? Perhaps they would have been lesser stars, but I believe they still would have pursued a career in music. Stevie was NOT sent here to be a cleaning lady dammit!

To hear Stevie tell it, if Fleetwood Mac hadn't reared its head, she would have packed it up and gone back to Phoenix. But it is Nicks, after all, so take it with a few pounds of salt. Lindsey, as much as he loved his guitar, always struck me as a lazy stoner without much smarts when it came to pursuing an actual career in music.
