You could remove Stevie Nicks and add Pat Benatar and Fleetwood Mac would be more interesting. The premise of the article is correct. The removal of Buckingham and addition of 2 new people does make it interesting. It just does not make it Fleetwood Mac IMHO. When Fleetwood Mac continued without Christine, it was interesting for a brief moment but the band lost its soul. IMHO it was not Fleetwood Mac.
The article drools over Finn as the most creative artist in the world. Well he is not being hired to be creative. The Mac is not recording an album. He is hired to fit the suit and play guitar and sing on a concert tour. If the Mac had 10 more years and 2 more studio albums to make, then it could be interesting. But sadly everyone knows this is the last tour and last breath of Fleetwood Mac.
Now to the wrong parts of the article. The author mocks Lindsey's singing that he no longer can sing. WTF? Lindsey has kept his singing voice which is something you cant say of Stevie and Christine. The author is really grasping at straws for that one. The author is excited that Crowded House songs and Heartbreaker songs will be played. The funny part was the author stating Finn could sing them better than Petty. WTF? If you want to hear Crowded House music, would you not rather attend a Crowded House concert? So Mac fans now must embrace Crowded House music because Finn plays guitar in Fleetwood Mac?
Now if you really wanted to make Fleetwood Mac more interesting, why not replace Mick with Don Henley. Then Stevie can sing leather and lace with him. A few Eagles songs could be played too. Stevie can hire Brad Jeffries to dance during Stand Back. They also could do a giant balloon drop during Don't Stop. All these things would make Fleetwood Mac more interesting. Replacing Keith Richards with Angus Young would make the Rolling Stones so much more interesting. Some of us don't want Fleetwood Mac more interesting.
Many of you can guzzle down the New Coke but many of us are sticking to the Classic.
