There was me thinking she was giving John moral support. He looked half asleep through the whole thing and didn't say a word. He never seems to do any music away from the group unlike Mick.

I would be interested to hear any of the facts KB has to offer...

I think Kirsten perfectly summed it up with the last hashtag:
#whoareyoupeople

That's what I'm asking myself since the news broke. I know for decades that they are some hard money-grabbers, but this now is just so unbelievable respectless and transparent.

what a terrible thing to read.
I feel like Lindsey and the fans have been seriously dissed.
I don't even know what to say. I've loved that band for 45 years now.

Neale will still play with FM. Brett won't. He politely declined.

Really? He appeared to be in the footage of them rehearsing with Mike and Neil that was shown during the CBS interview....

That last hashtag.... wow, if anyone had any doubts, well, like you said, I think we can pretty conclude who were behind Lindsey's firing.

Right, we don't use that word.

Let's not forget that during the Rumours tour, Lindsey had a seizure and ALMOST DIED but they STILL made him perform that night! Some friends right?

Well, I haven't heard that one. I had heard that Lindsey toughed it out and played a show despite being in immense pain due to a spinal tap, which he had done after suffering from a seizure while on the Rumours tour.

Carol Ann Harris wrote about that in her book. According to her the band insisted that he play despite the seriousness.

I remember that from her book. It was after his first seizure I believe? She really dragged the band for it. Obviously take her perspective with a grain of salt but she even said Richard Dashut started crying when he realized Mick and others cared more about what was going to happen with the show than about the fact that something could've been seriously wrong with Lindsey.

Wow, can't believe I forgot that! True, I haven't read her book in over a decade, but you'd think I'd remember a story where Lindsey almost died!

Wow, any other time someone mentions her book, it's not to be believed.

If I'd had a seizure before or during a concert, I definitely would have chucked the concert. Sorry the band didn't insist Lindsey rest and recover, and sorry Lindsey didn't stick up for himself and say "no way!"

Tbh I've always believed most of her book. I think she definitely had a slanted angle she was portraying/exaggerated some things but I do think most of the actual events she talked about happened.

To be fair, didn’t Mick nearly go into a diabetic coma during a show and still manage to finish the show?
