LOL why is Lindsey always threatened to be replaced? Because he's really the only one in the band that cared about and looked after the artistic integrity of the band and what they produce.

I started to draft a list to support this statement, but I'm not going to do the homework for you. After 600 something posts, you should probably know the dynamics of this band.

Where is the intrepid reporter who is going to ask/aknowledge: “you all recorded an album together last year. Stevie didn’t participate. Chris and Linda went on tour together. Were you all unhappy then?”

This is madness.

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.

Yes, we'd like to know exactly what it was that made "we" so unhappy all of a sudden, especially after all the unhappiness this band has been through in the last 40+ years. So unhappy, that now they couldn't continue and finish with their greatest lineup. He glossed over the fact that he wasn't going to go into the dynamics of that. MICK, WHERE ARE YOUR BALLS NOW?! seems they were hollow after all.

Aka they could of cashed in on a boatload of money by replacing Christine with Sheryl Crow and who was the only one who spoke up and said maybe this isn't the best idea both musically and artistically? - Lindsey.

Now they can release all the greatest hits/50th anniversary crap they want and spend their last active years being a parody of themselves.

Because his artistic vision impedes with $$tevie$$MICK$. And that's really the reason.

Exactly.It's crazy because exactly how much money do they really need at this point? I always liked to think that a large part of it was about enjoying playing and each others company, but that clearly isn't the case even in their final years of activity.

They were clearly not the family we all wanted to believe they were.

You have to understand. $tevie'$ only friend$ are people that work for her. So you have to pay all the staff and mgmt and agents that demand they do the big money stuff.

It's a lot of pre$$sure to become soulless.

It's very true. And I understand you will defend her to no end. But, that doesn't make it untrue.

Well then how do you explain the large number of friends she has in the music industry? How about Marty Callner, Michael Campbell, Sheryl Crow, etc. etc. etc. Also, she has her family. Some people dont need 50 friends around. They prefer to trust in a smaller group of close friends. I am one of those people.
Why do you act like you know about her daily life? Just because you guys think she is Satan doesnt make it true either. You are like sheep. One person has a thought and the next follow right along and builds on it with another made up alternative fact and it just goes on and on. In the meantime you are chasing fans away from this board and you dont even seem to care. It is pretty sad.

What an entertaining thread. LoL. The drama and back and forth fighting on here is way too funny. More drama than the band creates. Well, time for bed for me.
Carry on

I don’t think we’re fighting, just expressing our views. I find it hilarious that people are still in here hating on band members. You are still here, so clearly you don’t hate FM now as you claim. Lol
