Then why did he make comments about it last week? He did talk about it but he just didn't deny the band's story.

Many other people with reliable 'sources' just like your so-called sources have claimed that the band is manipulating the story. Lindsey did ask to delay the tour but he dropped it once it became obvious that wasn't going to happen and started to make plans to do the solo dates he wanted in between the tour instead. But they threw him out anyways. Hence the vitriol from his family and the claims from other people close to him (actual people like Rick Turner and a member of the BM backing band) saying that he wasn't making them delay anything, he was trying to plan two tours.

put some effort into finding the video that has been posted several times of him talking the morning after the Musicares event saying clearly that he was expecting FM to tour this year and he planned to be part of it.

I don't believe you. And what you call evidence is actually your biased interpretation of silence.

Where are the quotes from Rick Turner and a member of the BM backing band? I can't find those quotes online.

What I was saying is that the band, or at least Stevie and Mick, have gone out of their way to say “majority rules,” Christine said she wasn’t part of the decision, and Lindsey made a point to say “factions.” So, while the decision of WHY they parted ways with Lindsey is open to speculation, HOW they voted Lindsey out the band and WHO initiated the vote is actually pretty clear. I’m not putting any judgment on the decision, just saying how it was executed.

And maybe that was part of the decision. Maybe they were getting external pressures to squash the solo tour.

They were posted on here (both by Elle I believe). People in the band Facebook pages were obviously discussing it and they of them actually replied and shared what they knew. Elle got permission from Rick to post their conversation here, apparently Christine was even planning to join him on a few of those solo dates.

Well, I've searched online and on this forum and can't find any quotes. I'm sure you can understand that just as you all don't believe that I've spoken with two sources, I will find it hard to trust that Elle had a conversation with Rick without some proof. I know you all don't know how trustworthy I am, but I have actually spoken with two sources; one in Lindsey's production team and one in his management team. That's all I can say about that.

You should then also know that Lindsey pretty much never issues statements on anything. He just doesn't. He will probably talk about it later when he does whatever press that he does for his own excursions, but just issuing a statement saying "that's true or that's not true" is something he doesn't do. He said what he said at that political event because he was there and it was the 600 pound elephant in the room but he kept it very neutral and then just started talking about politics (obviously since it was a political event-- it wasn't an event for him).

Elle if you see this can you post the exchanges again? It was on here weeks ago and everyone saw it.
