I don't like F-M, but I watch Glee. Here's what I learned about F-M:
1) Without Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham and Christie McVie, the songs still suck.
2) Lindsay Buckingham's best performance is when he appears on SNL's WHAT UP WITH THAT.
3) If Glee is going to continue its theme of 70's mega-albums that dominated the charts for half a decade, I expect a Glee episode devoted to FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE, complete with talk box.
4) Or maybe a Glee episode devoted to Boston.
5) Christine Chenoweth... GREAT voice wasted on F-M.
6) Still waiting for Glee to do an episode about FIGHT CLUB. ;)
If they do #6, we won't be talking about it.

Whose brother is it that makes the really cool sofas from cars? Is that you, DukePA?

Was that one of his sofas on Dancing with the Stars this week? When Kirstie and Maks danced?

If this happens, I expect you all to notify me, because I will watch that. I love that album.

Stevie Nicks has a new album out.
Stevie Nicks built her legend on the California-Babylon chronicles she perfected in the Seventies with Fleetwood Mac, and in the Eighties on underrated solo gems like The Other Side of the Mirror. But she still has that eternal edge-of-17 tremor in her voice. The gypsy queen is in royal form on In Your Dreams — it's not just her first album in 10 years, it's her finest collection of songs since the Eighties.

This will be a BRUTAL weekend. My first real Mother's Day without my mom, and the one year anniversary of her passing, all on the same day. Ouch. And my dad's not even spending it with me. He said he couldn't deal and went off to a fancy hotel in the mountains with another woman. :((

Bjornolf, major vibes to you. To have both of those dates coincide is rough. (OTOH, at least you have one really, really bad day instead of two sucky days spaced out). Surround yourself with those you love and make a big deal of Mrs. Bjornolf's big day. :wizard: :wizard: :ymhug:
