Of course, if the other members had been smarter, they would have used reverse psychology. Right before a big number, with Stevie waiting to step up to her mic, one of them should have started telling a never-ending story about something — anything — from the Fleetwood Mac annals and just droned on forever with a serious face and done that every night until Stevie finally said, “I’ll shut up if you shut up.”

Another approach: After her long, boring speech, play her song at double speed whilst glancing at your watch.

Fleetwood Mac concerts were always best when they were the Battle of the Passive-Aggressives.
Passive aggressive pettiness is always the best revenge! Lindsey could’ve just recycled the cycles story and enhanced it to talk about the old AND the new cycles and how he has faith in them.

I don’t think they could speed us the songs anymore by that point. Physically not thinking most of them could handle anything more than a plodding dirge.
