Good Lord. Thought he looked off over the past year or so. Hope he will be OK but the vocal cord damage is scary for a seventy-year-old.

Based on the bandage and bruising, looks like he had to have a Tracheotomy. Quite possible he wasn't breathing at some point. God Bless Lindsey 🙏 😇 ❤️

Poor Lindsey - what horrible news to see today. Sending tons of good vibes to him and his family for a successful and speedy recovery. These guys seem larger than life and invincible and the sad reality of life is none of us are.

Politically correct, that's it. :rolleyes:

I'm glad he's alive and with his family and true friends. The rest is just background noise.

I don't doubt the sincerity of their statement. Deciding not to tour with him is not the same thing as wishing sickness or death on him.

They should feel guilty!

You are the biggest loser on this site and that's saying something.

I had tickets to see Mike Nesmith and Micky Dolenz in June of 2018, and the show was cancelled last minute because Mike had to have emergency heart surgery, also. I bring it up because Mike is back on the road and looking/sounding great, and says he's feeling so much better than the weeks before the problem was found, so we can only hope Lindsey's recovery goes just as well, also.

I am glad to hear this about Dolenz. I was wondering if Lindsey made a full recovery, if he could still get insurance needed to tour. I guess he can. His vocal chords are another matter. Will power won’t help them. We have mocked his speeches before, but what I wouldn’t give to hear him drone on about cycles now. As for his singing voice, I have had complaints about his whisper croaking for a long time now. So, I will take that with gratitude.

They didn’t give him a reason on why they didn’t want to tour with him, did they? Hell, they didn’t even meet with him to tell him he was fired, so yeah, I totally doubt of the sincerity of this copy and paste cold message.

All that stress... It might have just saved his life to have been doing the things he's done on his own terms (somewhat) this year. Brightest blessings to all.

Same here. I thought about him having a heart attack onstage or something.... christ. Glad he's at home and progressing well.

No but we do know Stevie does intend to dance around her apartment for 10 years. Lindsey was a clear and present danger to achieving that. This message is about as sincere as the "thoughts and prayers" crap that gets put out by every politician when anything happens.
