Expertise
I can answer any question about Fleetwood Mac, members of Fleetwood Mac, songs, and other assorted band history. I am knowledgeable of most members of the band, including the Rumours-era formation (Buckingham, Nicks, J. McVie, C. McVie, and Fleetwood), as well as the earlier formations (1967-1974 line-ups). If I do not know an answer, I will either find an answer for you or direct you to someone or some material that may better be able to assist you.
Experience
I have read anything I can get my hands on about the band. I own every album and have heard many unofficial, unreleased recordings. I have listened to/watched interviews. I have researched inaccuracies in books and interviews to try to find a more accurate account of the history of the band. Further, I tend to backup my thoughts with quotes, where available and appropriate.
