Apparently, he was only fired for a few months.

Fascinating interview. Didn’t know he became pals with John Courage on the fake Fleetwood Mac tour. No idea he went back that far.

I always wondered about that because on the Mirage show he is given lighting credits at the end.

I think he did several tours with them. Didnt he do the Dance lights? He may have possibly been with them up until that last tour...?

He was only 'fired ' for a few months when it all came out w the affair, so John had a chance to recover a little. Thats when chris made the band pay to fly her to Texas to visit him when they had a few days off. He came back for the rumours tour.

He has the honor to have one of the best rocking love songs written about him. Worth all the drama IMHO.

That is pretty f'nning huge. Good for him. Fired and re-hired too. Tells you how damn good he was at "lighting" people up.

He also was the lighting director for Stevie's first solo tour in 1981.

I'm curious how long after dating Chris he dated Stevie. Or did he hook up with Stevie first? There's pics of them cozied up together traveling on a train or something..

Wait? Stevie ALSO dated Curry Grant? And Dennis Wilson too? I wonder how Chris felt about this? Such bed hopping!

And she had one of the old school odometers. That thing(too) done rolled over and over(pun).

And Eddie Quintela too.

That means I want to believe it's one of the many jokes that abound here lately.

i'm still not convinced she didn't hook up with John at some point..esp when they were very tactile around the Tusk period.

It would have been sweet justice if Chris had actually had a fling with Lindsey

I've pondered many times over the years if Chris and Lindsey ever did it. Odds are pretty good, but who knows. He was pretty girly back then. She could've beaten him up, for sure.

I always thought of it as them making music as a collab which was way more intense and lasted longer than a hook up.

Imagine your partner writing a great song like World Turning with someone else.

Everything is possible. Mick wrote about one night, or day (there were no windows) during Rumours sessions:

Then there was the Thousand-Dollar Cookie Session. Stevie's girlfriend Robin had prepared some fresh hashish brownies. Be careful, she said, these things are really strong. But the band ignored the advertised potency and gobbled freely. We spent the night in such a bent condition that not a note was played and the engineers went home. John and Stevie spent hours huddled in a corner, giggling like mad over a copy of Playboy.
