Wonderful. Funny Lindsey's bathhouse nostalgia...

He and Mick have the same sense of comic timing and delivery. Interesting also.

I'm completely stunned and underwhelmed by the style (and size) of Lindsey's bedroom, especially knowing that his wife works as a designer. The drapes/curtins are hideously frilly. The bed, the carpet, etc...all looks so pedestrian. Not the look I expected of a wealthy rock star.

I'm sure Stevie's bedroom scores all the fabulous points that realm.

I don't want to sound like a curmudgeon, but I have to agree with you. I know Kristen has some nice designs, as I have seen some really cool pics of her displays and magazine spreads, but some things she does... Like the pears. And the floral drapes are just tacky. I'm a female and I don't even do female drapes in my home. I have nothing against them, but the ones in their bedroom are hideous. And Lindsey has to sleep with all that pink floral everywhere.

But I guess the headboard was the worse. I just can't...

The headboard, particularly in between those lampshades.

Wall sconces, satiin spread, Queen Anne night stand. Nothing in that room is from the same era or style. Obviously coordinating everything is passe, but even if you buy your furniture at flea markets, you do try to make some kind of collective statement, when everything comes together. Everything in this room clashes.

Oh and I'm glad to see the shawl (cashmere, no doubt) is on Kristen's side of the bed, 'cause I don't want to think Lindsey wraps himself up in that at night.

At least the headboard has changed in the new house. No wonder her motto is "perfection is something to be avoided". (See KB thread). How ironic -- and she's married to Lindsey Buckingham, Mr. Pefectionist?!?

Please tell me you misspelled perfectionist on purpose!

October 3, 2011 Aural Standards Blog, from the guy who interviewed Lindsey for Spin

http://auralstandards.com/2011/10/03...ey-buckingham/



Okay, so that Lindsey Buckingham ^ is long gone, but I’ll take the cool-headed, contemplative silver-haired gentleman who invited me into his home on an L.A. summer’s day over the guy who might’ve burned said home down with me inside it in the mid-’70s. Pick up the current issue of SPIN, or nab our incredible iPad app, to check out the proper In My Room feature. Meanwhile, you can head over here for an exclusive video interview between myself and Buckingham.

Off camera: Lindsey’s current listening pile, which included CDs by Kanye, Grizzly Bear, Phoenix, Arcade Fire, Dirty Projectors, and Vampire Weekend.

Lindsey's such a hip mofo.

He needs better taste in music. He needs to come around to my place and spend an evening listening to my CD's. I'll show him a thing or two about real music

Okay. I'm a music snob. I admit it.

so Lindsey also draws....wonder if he draws anything other than that face, and if we'll ever get to see his drawings at some point... It would be great to get a Buckingham Nicks collection of artwork. Nice coffee table book or something... at least a show somewhere.

Well, we know he can draw all of the FM faces as well, from the Mirage liner picture.

Didn't some band use something he drew in their album art work? I don't remember who the band was.

I just knew you would chime in with that!

Actually, his taste isn't all that bad Bee! I mean, maybe some of the indie stuff he's name-dropping isn't the greatest stuff, but he has some legitimately cool musical taste. Check out his List of Music You Should Hear
