which he's been doing all the time on his solo tours without a problem. and he was doing on his solo tour last fall.

and Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson are doing the same in their 80s.

a "genetic heart condition"? all we know he has family history of heart disease.

I certainly hope that is the case.

This is one occasion where I would be very glad if I jumped to the wrong conclusions based on outward appearances.

NONE of us know if this heart surgery was genetic. We don't know if was due to stress, bad eating habits, or anything else, including the fact that he was fired by that witch. But I bet it didn't help.

Just a suggestion. If you only care what $tevie's fart$ smell like, you should probably $tick to the $tevie board. It's gonna be brutal, otherwise. Have a good day.

Next we know we have to thank Stevie and Mick for firing him and saving his life.

Thank you, Mick and Stevie!!!!

For all we know, he could have been HAPPILY touring with his band and NONE of this would have happened.

Happily?
That is a S T R E T C H if I ever heard one.

All this speculation is if some of you are Lindsey's private doctor. Please stop. Its foolish and very disrespectful to Lindsey IMHO.

He wanted to tour with them, that's not a stretch.

And that was not the point of the post anyway....

The others should reach out to him, too... but she bears a greater responsibility because of the interweaving of their lives for the past 50+ years.

Prayers for Lindsey's recovery.
^^^^^^ This!!

Yes but if he had died he probably would have risen back to life after a few days and saved pop music for all who believe in him.

no that's Saint Stevie, in her flowing robes.

And the Stevie stans would have Lindsey rotting in hell for daring to point out grammatical mistakes.
