Also, I maintain that there is more to the story/firing than smirking and Rhiannon. People are just gobbling up Lindsey’s comments as complete truth. Has anyone here been fired? I have, once. Unfairly, but I did have some responsibility. But I refused to look at my contribution to the problem for several months. When I talked about it, I claimed 100% innocence and never told the entire story.
Finally, the band was very rude to make fun of her in front of an audience. She can talk as long as she goddamn wants. They don’t like it - tell her directly. What a bunch of obnoxious children. These people stopped liking and respecting each other a long time ago.

While I fully agree with your first two paragraphs. Lindsey does sound a little too innocent, given what we know about his personality. I took the situation during Musicares as a friendly banter between friends, I would have laughed if my bandmates would make gimmicks behind my back because they find my ramblings a bit annoying, all in good fun (Mick, John and Chris ARE brits after all, let them have their scurile humour). I'm sure ever member of the band told her again and again to keep it short, before they settled for making fun of her ramblings. I think that Stevie was angry when Lindsey did not want one of her most famous songs playing when FM entered the stage, because that would have made everything even more about her and not the band, something she liked and he did not. And that was the big bang.
