Fleetwood Mac - Rumours

What's with this band? Stevie - girl. Lindsey - boy. It's all wrong.

Then there's Mick Fleetwood, who is, at a conservative estimate, four metres tall. He had a ponytail, wore a weird broad-brimmed hat and he had a beard. And as if that weren't enough, he wore one of those jacket/tank top things that are so ludicrous that I don't even know what they're called. You know - like a leather body-warmer. He looked like some giant, druidic cowboy or something.

He was the drummer and of course the drummer always has his own thing going on, but they're rarely, if ever, giant druidic cowboys.

Fleetwood Mac and Rumours in particular will render the Soft Rock section a bit more convincing. It's full of stuff I don't really know how to categorise at the moment. Fleetwood Mac though? If they're not Soft Rock then Mick Fleetwood's a midget who bears no resemblance to either a druid or a half-arsed cowboy.
