Someone said this elsewhere, about Stevie and Lindsey: "She's worked with him through worse times. Why, in her mid-60's, when the band is in it's final stages, would she decide to make a move now? It doesn't make sense."

That's how I feel - if they had insisted Lindsey stayed, I think she still would've gone with them. In her solo career, she gets to do what she wants. Then when she returns to FM, she's amenable to what the majority want to do.
Honestly, if it were Stevie or Christine departing, I wouldn't be getting as worked up as some others are about this happening. Or think it was end of the world.
