Her sense of humor comes out especially when she answers the question if she is introverted and she responds "depends on how drunk I am."
I also love the counter point of so many rock stars who complain how "hard" it is life on the road. She exclaims how pampered they all are.

I think she chose to never be a victim to anyone.

Even though she was always my favorite, she's also the only one I'd be afraid of.

Probably would have been best for the momentum of the show. When the set would venture into Buckingham territory with Neal (is that how you spell his name?) on lead vocal, it felt peremptory (is that the word?) — “we’re doing this song because it conveys the impression to at least some of you that we’re really still the same Fleetwood Mac whose fourteen remastered greatest hits albums you probably own.”

But then I think back over all the covers of LB’s stuff, and there isn’t very much of it that interests me. Even the Camper van Beethoven redo is only intermittently interesting to me. (The idea is great, but the execution is not.) Maybe Matthew Sweet’s “Second Hand News” is good without making me in any way forget the original.

Especially since Lindsey plays guitar on it.
