It boggles my mind that Stevie flat refuses to record new music. I do know why -- because she has nothing new to contribute creatively -- but it's incredible to me that she is a permanent road block for anything new labeled "Fleetwood Mac" because she's too embarrassed to show that LB and CM are the lasting creative forces and she's not. It would ruin her image. LB is quoted as saying they didn't call BuckVie a FM album out of respect for Stevie and the whole 5 of them as "Fleetwood Mac" (so painfully ironic how she canned him soon after given his respect for the R5). She could have joined them and chose not to because she was completely absorbed in her solo career throughout that time. Ironic that they're trying to point the finger at LB's solo career being the reason he was ousted. Stevie's solo career has interfered far more through the decades. And as to LB weaving in solo shows between FM dates... that makes total sense to me. Why not if there are nights off between each gig? If he's got the stamina and means, literally, WHY NOT? It's practical and smart! As for LB recording the songs soon after Stevie's mother died.... I mean, the man is prolific and wrote and recorded a bunch of songs as he's done most of his adult life. I'm sorry her mother died, no one wants that, but how is that offensive of him? He may have even thought it would be a healthy distraction for her to dive into new music (I would think it would be). Also a lot of times, loss/grief can generate a lot of new creative juices; it could have helped her with writers block and created some amazing songs from her pain. Obviously I have no idea what they discussed together, but I cannot see any wrong in him trying to get new music going. In my view, him trying to include Stevie is a sign of respect, not insult or disrespect. Quote:

I agree, 100%. Because she wouldn't have HAD to follow through. There was no way they were going to go out as just $tevie Nick'$ Fajita Roundup. They HAD to have Christine.

we have no clue whether there's any truth to it but isn't that exactly what that one site claims happened? that she quit and left. disappeared for a week or 10 days. then somebody went after her (Mick? lawyers?), not clear whether somebody twisted her arm or Mick whined to get her into coming back.

- I have presented the counter-argument to the Lindsey and his fans' argument. - I do not express agreement or disagreement with the counter argument. - However, I am sick of this being a one-sided argument about Saint Lindsey and how terrible (most of) the rest of the band are. - Stevie is ABSOLUTELY wrong not to create new music. At the very least she should be writing brand new solo songs. Or recording My Mother's Rings. - Touring is not evil. It is not our enemy. One wonderful night to remember still has value, and if it is filmed, a LIVE ALBUM also has much merit. |

They still haven't learned that we are not "LB" fans. Many of us were fans of LB and Stevie, but Miss Tambourine Goat screwed that up.

Exactly. I adored ALL of them, particularly LB and Stevie together and their chemistry and intricate history, then collectively rising above to create amazing music as an incredible band. No more. She did it to herself. I see my Stevie stuff now and it angers me so much I want to throw it all away. One of these days I will need extra space and it will be primed to go in the dumpster.

Age should be irrelevant and I feel foolish justifying this with a response. I'm 25.

Okay, thank you. About a decade older than my guess.
