I disagree with you and the iamsoafraid in that both posts are using faulty logic. iamsoafraid offers up faulty dilemmas as part of his reasoning. "It MUST be this or that," when in fact there are other possibilities that we may not know about. In your post you say that "MAY" have been his way of expressing graditutde, "PRESUMABLY" including . . . . and then you add, "that post says it all," when in fact you make it clear that nothing is certain about even a picture and caption.

My copy of the BuckVie CD is going the way of my FM CDs to the used CD shop. I am probably the only one in my country to have a copy

I'm afraid you're reading too much into it, apart from the fact that Mick's (and Christine's too for that matter) profile surely is not being run by him in person, it consist at 99,9% of posts made by getty images pictures with generic captions like this one that I personally have seen half a dozen of times since I've started following him a year and a half ago, referring to Peter, John and Christine (and I think also Jeremy) in turn; they probably never look at their own social media profile, much less that of each other (and their ridiculously lacking and outdated marketing strategies should tell you that).

By this logic then Leelee Buckingham's post on IG about her father has nothing to do with his firing. The Penguin with the red background on FB is just in my imagination, and really nothing is going on, since the Penguin isn't saying anything. QED!

I know you are smart. The Stevie/Lindsey saga has went on for 40 years. What I don't get is how so many paint Stevie as some victim. She is one of the most power women in rock and has one of the most successful careers in the music industry. She is NOT a helpless victim that so many make her out to be. Stevie refused to join Fleetwood Mac in the studio and made up fairy tales that I know you are smart enough to not believe. She does not get along with Lindsey and vice versa. There is no doubt in my mind Stevie threw down the gauntlet and said I will not tour with Lindsey. She made up a story about not recording with Lindsey but she cant use that same story about not selling tickets because everyone knows the tour will sell tickets. Several months ago Lindsey was the MOST optimistic about Fleetwood Mac's future saying there were many more tours coming. Mick was not so sure but Lindsey did not want to call it quits. The same Stevie that refused to come into the studio with Lindsey also refused to go on the road with Lindsey. Yes they fight and they both do unfair stuff to each other. If the Mac fired Stevie over Lindsey my point would be exactly the same. I am not the one with the double standard. This is wrong and it needs to be called out. Christine is gutless just like she was with Bob Welch. She betrayed her musical mentor and dream guitarist. I mention Mick and Stevie because I expect this from them the most. I don't get it when you say there is lots we don't know. Really? Stevie lied to get out of recording with Fleetwood Mac. She kept extending her tour to not deal with it. Then she went on vacation for 3 months. The SAME reason she did what she did about the album is the SAME reason she did this with the tour. There is no mystery here.

I blame all of them. Christine should have left the band the moment they decided to fire Lindsey. But she didn't. So I blame her too.

But Mick and Stevie had been plotting his firing since Musicares. Maybe even before that. The big fight between Lindsey and Stevie took place at Musicares. It was a stupid fight over a stupid thing, but we all know Stevie knows how to push Lindsey's buttons. And she gave Mick an ultimatum. I can't understand poeople saying we still don't know what happened. Yes, we know what happened, and that's why we blame them. End of the story.

I understand it's a hard pill to swallow for Stevie's fans, but even his own family are supporting Stevie's bashing, so what else is there to say?

I'm not sure about what you mean, obviously we can be approximately sure that Leelee manages her own profile by herself since she's Lindsey's daughter and not a public person.

Do we know this to be certain now. That the fight happened on that night? What was it about?

Lindsey's own daughter is supporting the Stevie bashing? Gosh, I'm so shocked- the rumours Stevie masterminded this plan to fire Lindsey for the last 40 years really must be true, then! I'm simply stunned that Lindsey's own daughter is supporting him! I mean, who would have ever seen that coming? But I'm still not convinced Lindsey is in the right- not until I hear from Lindsey's wife and son! Surely the fact that they haven't said anything to support Lindsey means they sided with Christine, John, Mick, and Stevie, right?

Folks, please keep it real here. Yes, Lindsey's daughter supports her father's side of this. I'm sure his entire family does. And I'm sure John's wife supports his side of this. And Mick's wife supports his side of this. Seeing people say "look, it must be true, Lindsey's daughter liked a comment that said we love Lindsey" is embarrassing when they try to say this somehow proves something. She liked the comment because she loves her father and appreciated that other people are also expressing their love for him. Many fans are mad he was fired, and she's mad, too.

It IS a hard pill for SN fans to swallow but SHE has changed the last few years. Gotten bitter and wallows in the adulation. I know people say I always bash her, but you have to remember i was the BIGGEST fan of hers ever. But when someone starts acting in a manner that is embarrassingly ungrateful, I BAIL. And Bail I did.

Hahahaha, Stevie playing the real looooooooong game on that one. Way to be patient, Ms. Nicks. Way to be patient.

I mean, real legitimate music and celebrity media outlets aren't consistent in saying whether he was fired or walked. Even if I think it likely that he was fired/asked to leave/told "thanks no thanks", I don't think I've seen actual press reporting (not family members or "this dude that knows Tom Petty") as to the reasons. Someone point me in the direction of actual media reporting where Stevie gave some ultimatum.

And of course Lindsey's family will support his side. Someone ask Lori Nicks who was in the wrong.

Fleetwood Mac is/was made up of five divas (or maybe three divas, a half-diva and John). Drama has long been the name of the game. Honestly nothing that comes out to explain this split will surprise me...but there's a whole lot of info being tossed around as fact that I haven't see actually reported as such.

Noone said Stevie masterminded anything for the past 40 years, but whatever. One thing is to like every nice comment about your dad. But when you like every comment that bashes Stevie..... she doesn't need to do that, and yet she's still doing it. What? That means that she loves Stevie. Not at all. She's really appreciating all the Stevie hate.

Are these accounts verified? Is it a parody account?

Every Buckingham account is verified. What, you think someone stole family pictures, created a fake account, posted them and is posing as Leelee?

All the Stevie hate posts she liked are from FM fans that are usually here, on Twitter, FB, anywhere. People with lives and beautiful pictures of their families and friends. Noone created fake accounts just to leave Stevie hate comments on Leelee's IG.

The hate is real. No need to fake it. Take a look at Mick's IG account. It's there.

Actually they're not verified. Mick's is. The rest are not. Anyone can post pictures.
