Someone really needs to make a movie about Fleetwood Mac. No end of great music, sex and drugs, and endless conflict and drama.

And they're still bringing the music, conflict, and drama, all these years later!

You'll need a miniseries to tell that story.

[–] Otter (24464) 3 years ago

That would work, too!

So would a movie or miniseries about the Bee Gees and Andy Gibb.

Little Lies or Rumours would be a good title.

He’s an asshole

I'm a big fan of the guy and think its ridiculous they go on without him. Yes, I know the early days had many members come and go, but this is different. He was a big part of their superstardom and that can't be replaced.

P.S. That new tune "On the Wrong Side" is great.

I disagree. I'm glad Lindsay and Stevie helped them get to where they got to, phenomenally successful.
But Mick and John dragged that band forward through thin and thick for a good number of years before they showed up, and ultimately I think they can do whatever they want with the Fleetwood Mac name.

Guess what? Neither of them wrote more than a couple of tunes throughout the ENTIRE Fleetwood Mac career. They're great players but they've always relied on others with talent to keep it going.

They did keep the band going through the lean times, though. Can't deny.

I believe him. Nicks also acted like a little b when Buckingham left in the 80s. Who cares about her? He's the one who wrote the band's best song by far.

He has actual talent, her, not so much, other than playing a tambourine.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

she does seem full of herself.

In 2017, the album Lindsey Buckingham Christine McVie was released (its quite good actually). Four of the five "classic members" of Fleetwood Mac are featured on the album; vocalist Stevie Nicks is the sole member absent. Make of that what you will (Fleetwood Mac Fan Andy).
