I didn't know that! Fun fact.

The sexism towards Stevie can be staggering but it also bothers me when people call Kristen Buckingham, who at the end of the day no one here really knows, a "gold digger." I really don't understand what she's done that deserves such vitriol.

It was more of a wise crack than anything. It wasn't said with vitriol but more of a raised eyebrow.

That's just plain rude.

Hahaha, no, sometimes I just have to call out the cruel ones tho. Not that it will make her even remotely stop.

Do you think it's really Karen behind gldstwmn?

Although personally I hate that Lindsey is gone, and I would never see this incarnation of FM in concert. it truly amuses me to see so many Ledgies bemoan over Stevie, over and over.
So many threads, yet the same gripes about Stevie.
Over and over.
To the point where it's like one big rerun.
I browse through a bit, but don't read all the posts, as it's really an excuse for everybody to repeat the same things, using new threads as an excuse to do it.
Over and over.

I'm not certain which one is worse!

not because you said it (we expect no less) but that it's such a flaming example of hypcrisy "Name your source!" "Opinions aren't facts!" "people just make things up" "We don't know, we weren't there!"

The stuff the chiffon lover has implied about Lindsey is way worse then anything we've ever said.

Fan fiction is forbidden here, yet that's what she's been pushing.

“Stevie is running the show,” Peterson said.

And long overdue. Sorry!

The first person who did that but with other words was Stevie, so what would you expect of the gold dust sniffers?

Imho the insistance of Mick and Lindsey that FM is a "real" band who happens to have 2 female players in it got really old over the years. Mick is the worst offender in downplaying Stevies and Christines archivements and I'm glad that that seems to be over now (In 1990, Mick told an interviewer that during the sessions for BTM he learned that Christine was more than a pretty face. He had the nerve to actually say that).

Agreed. And Christine is playing the solo w/ Mike on BMW.

I know because it sounds like a 75 year old Christine playing it. It's slightly tired, but great.

I adore Kristen. She's what a spouse should be. Faithful and supportive all day.
