Truth is many of those fans didn't have a problem with her until she decided to show Lindsey the door. So she's not exactly Sister Stevie.

Like I said, I don’t have sympathy if she feels uncomfortable now. Her decisions have consequences, just like Lindsey’s.

I have always seen it. It’s just no worse than Lindsey’s behavior. He just got the boot first. I am sure he would have loved to fire her in the 2000s if he was the one who had her power/popularity.

And that’s why you’re gonna see her in March? Because you don’t care about her?

I’m a Fleetwood Mac fan. I would rather have seen Stevie go. I would rather have had Buckingham Fleetwood McVie after 2004 than Lindsey solo, and Fleetwood Mac when Christine came back. Then again, I would have been happy with the “Love Shines” version of the band. I don’t care that they are lying about what happened. Knowing just a little about their history, the truth might paint all of them in a bad light. And, I’ve also learned to never believe what they initially say. Christine, Mick, and John are together again. All I need.

I did not say I didn’t care about her. I said I don’t feel very much sympathy because when you make a decision like this there are bound to be repercussions. I like her music and she is my favorite singer but I am not obsessed with her. She is a human, fascinating, aggravating and flawed but she is not a Goddess. I don’t “worship” any of these people. |

My name has been Stephen Hopkins for the last five years, after getting to know my birth parents, who it turns out got married a few years after I was born and had three more children together. This is the only place where I still have a connection to that old identity. ETA: my signature pic has been there for at least a year and a half.

BTW, I quit caring last year. Between the album being released as LBCM and the canned backing tracks that were so prominent on the tour, I quit caring. Seeing Christine up close, personal, and enjoying herself was good enough. The fact they got top shelf, respectable choices this time makes it a little easier. Not what I wanted, but still compelling.

And I don’t see Lindsey in a victim’s light. It’s regrettable, but he played a part, just like many people who get fired (as opposed to laid off).

Lindsey is not a victim. I think his past has come back to haunt him, frankly.

It's both. He quit the tour in 87 and was invited to rehearse on Maui.
