Fleetwood Mac Week!!!!

When I asked where my name came from my mom told me that she named me after Lindsey Buckingham, the guitarist from the band Fleetwood Mac.  Their album, Rumours, was on constant rotation in our house (along with Paul Simon's Graceland) and their 1997 reunion tour was my first concert.  So, yeah, I'm really into Fleetwood Mac.  Someday I want to meet my namesake and tell him how awesome Tusk is. 

This week, Glee is dedicating the whole epsode to songs from the Rumours album.  I am pretty excited about this but also super jealous that Lea Michelle gets to sing Go Your Own Way to an ex-boyfriend, which has always been something I've wanted to do. 

Also, I found a book at the library last week called Storms: My Life with Lindsey Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac, written by Buckingham's girlfriend during the recording and tour of Rumours.  Drama!!!!  Its pretty good. 

So I hope you take some time this week to appriciate one of the coolest bands ever.   Do you have a favorite band from the 70's?
