Stevie in Tom Petty Documentary
Anyone watch the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers documentary titled "Runnin' Down a Dream"? It's very well done and extremely long, but very good. Anyways point is when "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" was discussed obviously Stevie's input was required and she was interviewed. Could she me more disrespectful to Fleetwood Mac?? I realize it's par for the course with her, but still. Saying how she wanted to join the Heartbreakers and how she preferred their music. How she credits Tom with her solo career. No loyalty whatsoever. Never passes as opportunity to minimize the impact and talent of the band she's actually in. I just don't get it. Nobody else in the band ever does that.

I think Stevie wanted to distance herself from Fleetwood Mac when she began her solo career. She has stated that she wanted to sound as much like a female Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers as possible for her solo work It could have been worse. She could have picked Journey or Styx

Remember the context of the documentary. Its about......Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers LOL
Of course she is going to fawn all over Tom. She is an honorary member of the Heartbreakers and has key writing relationships with members of the band. I don't see this as any disloyalty to Fleetwood Mac. Stevie actually has been probably the most loyal to the band. She could have easily quit after Lindsey left. She could have quit when Christine left. Stevie's management wanted her to quit Fleetwood Mac in 1989 fearing a flop with the Mac and it could damage her solo career. She kept going to record with the Mac in 1990 and tour. I don't see why she would praise or be thankful or show appreciation for Fleetwood Mac when she is being interviewed about one of her idols Tom Petty.

Lindsey, Stevie, Christine have left. I do think Stevie has been loyal. She could have jumped ship sooner. She almost always loves whatever subject is in front of her.

Oh my goodness after all that she has said and done over the years it took that Didn't she also say at one point that she would have left Fleetwood Mac and joined the Heartbreakers if she had been asked?

Before I saw the whole thread title, I was reading "Stevie in Tom Petty" and I was, like, "what the?......."

Fleetwood Mac is a compromise for a number of its band members, I think. Stevie wanted to be the female Tom Petty. Lindsey wanted to be a punk chipmunk. I wouldn't be surprised if John missed the way things sounded when Peter Green was around.

Stevie is just a fan girl. There's no malicious intent in her words. Just a few years ago she said if she could be in any band it would be Coldplay. Girl just loves music, and guys, and guys who make music.
