TIL that In 1971, former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Jeremy Spencer went AWOL before a gig at LA’s Whiskey A Go Go and couldn’t be found for weeks. The band eventually tracked him down and discovered that he joined the religious cult Children Of God and formed a band of his own with the members.

If you don’t know anything about this cult, this one encourages child sex abuse. The leader wrote about his incest at length and their history is truly disturbing.
The guy wanted out of the band badly just went a dumb way to do it.
“Jeremy, you can go your own way…but you’ll just be second hand news to us. Just don’t stop thinking about tomorrow. I know you have dreams, and being in Fleetwood Mac is like the chain around your neck, so good luck…by the way here’s a free ticket to the circus for you. I hope one of the elephants gets startled and gores you with its tusk.”

Musicians are so dull nowadays
I thought it was what Peter Green did. Maybe they had the band mates mistaken. Or maybe it happened to both.
Guy ran off and joined the Epsilon Program
