[TexasTowelie]

A star-studded fundraiser for Democratic candidates in key House races is scheduled for next month.

Former Fleetwood Mac lead guitarist Lindsey Buckingham will perform at the Los Angeles home of California Coastal Commissioner Chair Dayna Bochco on July 31.

The event’s co-hosts include directors Cameron Crowe and Callie Khouri, affordable housing developer Tom Safran, producers Doug Wick and Bill Mechanic and “Game of Thrones” co-creator David Benioff.

“The road to take back the House of Representatives runs through California,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Torrance) wrote in an email invitation. “You can meet all eight of our wonderful red-to-blue candidates in one place … eight terrific candidates. Awesome songs. Amazing people.”

1. Hard to believe the band gave him the boot.

Great band but without him it ain’t the same. Apparently he wanted to perform new material instead of just the hits. Tough call. Buckingham was a huge part of the bands success. Their loss is our gain.

2. I adore him, but I know he has a really controlling personality...I think he'll find his way back to

Fleetwood Mac in the future. But, so glad to see his activism.

4. I read that he didn't want to tour anymore

and they decided to tour without him. I'm so glad I was able to see them twice in concert all together.

3. He can't believe he has to do this twice in one lifetime.

Peace Out ✌
