I can understand the desire to post "insane" tweets and Facebook comments in order to point and laugh; I do hope that we all can refrain from implying that they are representative of Stevie fans and/or Buckingham Nicks fans in general.

Ever since that popped into my head this morning, I've been chanting it all day (wishing it would leave).

IA with this.

I'm excited for Buckingham McVie; I hope it does well. I guess I too am what many would consider a "Chiffonhead" and I will love and support Stevie until the day I die. What I don't understand is why can't we hope that Buckingham McVie wins awards without also hoping it's a dig against Stevie. The members of Fleetwood Mac seem to be content with their own respective projects, why can't the fans as well. This really seems like a win-win situation to me. Lindsey and Chris get to make and promote an album, and Stevie gets to continue doing what she loves with her critically acclaimed solo tour. Then they will probably all get back together for a Fleetwood Mac tour. I love all members of this band, and I want to see them all successful and happy, however that may be.

I saw that..

Agreed, 24karatstevie. Why assume that Mick's complimenting of Lindsey and Christine's work is necessarily an insult to Stevie? Didn't he just attend one of her concerts and praise her work as well?

It was how the title was worded. Very click bait-y. If you read the actual thing, it sounded perfectly fine within context but most people never actually read the thing.

Isn't this just a cut and paste from a previous article?

Maybe it's the odd 1 or 2 over the top people you're talking about but everyone I know of is fine, whether they're 'chiffons' or 'shippers', they even make a good few jokes about it.

Yes. I haven't heard any crazy rants on twitter regarding this. As you said, there may be an odd 1 or 2 over the top, pot-stirrers, but I haven't come across any.
Most "chiffon heads" I know could care less that Buckingham McVie are doing their own thing. A lot of them are happy about it as it frees up Stevie to add tour dates or record another solo project.

I was thinking more about why this project wasn't just called Fleetwood Mac ... it's probably the record execs. I doubt an of the band members would care if they called it a Fleetwood Mac record.
I'm happy for you all that this is happening though.

I won't hold my breath for any awards. I don't care about sales either. But I do hope it gets good critical reviews. That's what I will consider important.

It's very interesting that FM still thrives on drama, including many fans. I think most of the drama currently going on is happening more online with fans than between the actual members of the band, to be honest.

It's all rumours.

I'll be totally honest about the whole thing. I'm excited for this album. Those two with Mick and John should sound like vintage Mac. Anything similar to Tango and I will love it. However. I'm so gutted that Stevie won't be on it. They need her voice in the mix. Just listen to Little Lies. When she comes in the chorus with "Tell me lies" it gives me chills.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to it nonetheless.
