I guess Lindsey did have a job at one time...
Poor Lindsey...he was traumatized! Actually, I think I would have been too. What a crap job.
Robert Morgan Special of the Week - 1980 (about a job he had to get after Buckingham Nicks flopped) "That was very embarrassing too cause as you can tell I'm pretty soft spoken. I got this job trying to sell advertising space. I had to get up at five in the morning to call back east...and uh..'Hi, this is, uh,' and you'd give a fake name and give the name of the directory and you'd say 'would you like to renew this year?' and half the people would say, 'oh, sure if we had it last year' and you'd write them down, but there had not been the directory the year before. It was such a scam, I couldn't believe it. I couldn't take that for more than a month, I just got, uh, too traumatized. I just wasn't cut out for that type of thing."

Well, that is the worst job for Linsdey. I myself could never do sales. (although, regrettably, I did somewhat for a brief period) but at least he tried something. I wish I had the luxury to be a genius. or even go to school without working. I have a friend from Palo Alto, and he's kind of the same. He usually only has a summer job of coaching kids swimming, and sometimes other jobs, but mostly he "practices music" while his dad pays his credit card bills. Oh, and it's not like he's frugal. Somehow, he usually has money for drink, whatever else , and tasty food.

I loved the Today Show interview where Matt Lauer asked Stevie about Lindsey "not working"..he sort of insinuated that Linds was lazy and putting Stevie to work. Stevie completely put him in his place and told him "it was ok for him to stay home and practice his guitar because SHE SAID IT WAS OK".....I was thrilled with her answer. She was obviously not going to let Matt put Lindsey down.
I really do not see a problem with him not having a nine to five job and staying at home working on their music. Women have a "job" when they stay home and care for the house and kids. Lindsey was working on their songs, practicing his guitar, producing Stevie's songs...he had a job, just not in the typical sense. If Stevie had no problem with it, no one else should. She has said it many times..she was doing everything she could to make it possible for them to be successful. In fact, I think it makes her feel quite good to know that she financially supported them both at that time in their lives. They worked together as a duo towards their dream and they BOTH made vital contributions.

And remember, if he hadn't been twiddling a guitar all day long, maybe Mick wouldn't have been so interested in his playing |

At least we know who wore the pants in that relationship.

Plus, Stevie has said that when she left Lindsey and went back up north, she ran out of money and had to come back and eat humble pie to move back in with him. So, he and Richard were obviously paying the rent somehow in her absence. And he told Charlie Rose that the money he inherited lasted them a little while, so he didn't spend the whole 10K on music equipment. I think he had money dribbling in, even if he didn't have a consistent job like Stevie did. Michele |

He really is a piece of work. He never held a real job, yet compares himself to a struggling artist living in a two room flat. He may have a good grasp on a lot things, but reality ain't one of them.
