What a great reasoned response.

If anger is the new black I'll wear it gladly. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

And some need a bleaching, badly!

Wow the opinion police are starting the year out in full force telling folks what they can or cannot think.

I don't know if I'd say 'frail' but he does definitely look somehow 'different'. To me it seemed his mouth was at bit different, in a way that a family member of mine's does after they had a stroke. (Relax, I'm not saying he had a stroke, I'm saying a member of my family did and was left with a slightly crooked smile afterwards). Maybe it's the paleness of his skin color compared to before that's different

The proof will be in the pudding and when he makes his first public appearance.

I would love it if he were to start answering questions on Twitter again!

haha guess people have strong opinions here!

to me he just looks quietly content in that pic, and also not sunburned like he usually looks (although a lot of that is lighting) but pale as light-skinned people would normally look in the middle of winter. you really cannot say anything about persons health from a selfie head-shot, i def hate all of mine even if i take them when i think i look great.

for comparison, here are some of LB's photos before the heart attack when everyone opined how he looked great and healthy, so -

I interviewed @LBuckingham about making Fleetwood Mac’s "Go Your Own Way” for @SongExploder. Listen to the episode here: https://t.co/YCB94OCa7a pic.twitter.com/tdSo4XoNyI

Lindsey Buckingham’s Wife, Kristen, Shares New Year’s Photo
by Best Classic Bands Staff

Lindsey Buckingham has scheduled his first concert appearance since the open heart surgery he had in February 2019. The surprise announcement on Dec. 20 was made by the Beale Street Music Festival in Memphis, Tenn. The annual event revealed the first round of the lineup for its 2020 edition and downplayed the classic rock legend’s appearance.

After noting the headliners – in the announcement’s second paragraph – including the Lumineers, the Avett Brothers, and Lil Wayne – the festival noted “additional first round artists include soul singer Leon Bridges, rock icon Lindsey Buckingham… ” and other acts, including Mavis Staples and Taj Mahal.

On New Year’s Day, Buckingham’s wife, Kristen, shared a photo on her Instagram account of themselves, with a caption that read, in part, “The best time for new beginnings is now.”


The news of Buckingham’s health issues was revealed by Kristen on the musician’s social media platforms on Feb. 8, 2019. He suffered vocal cord damage and was “recuperating at home and each day he is stronger than the last,” she wrote. The singer turned 70 on Oct. 3, 2019.

Buckingham had a highly visible divorce from Fleetwood Mac in 2018. The band completed a tour this fall with two replacements – the Heartbreakers’ lead guitarist Mike Campbell, and longtime Split Enz/Crowded House guitarist-vocalist Neil Finn. Buckingham spent much of his time in 2018 organizing an anthology and performing on a solo tour.

Shortly before the news of his heart surgery, Buckingham had noted that he was planning on scheduling 2019 concerts and one such date had already been listed: he was to play the Doheny Blues Festival on May 18-19, 2019. That performance was cancelled.

Ironically, Buckingham did perform that week, playing guitar at his daughter LeeLee’s high school graduation concert on May 17, as she sang.

Kristen Buckingham shared a clip of the performance on her Instagram account on May 18. That same day, she tweeted: “Last night was epic. First time I’ve seen Lindsey play in the last 4 mos, all the while Lee ending her high school career. AND she sings a little Landslide with her dad. I cried, I’ll admit it. Never know what’s ahead so enjoy the moment…”

On May 20, she tweeted a follow-up comment: “The love and support for Lindsey and our family from all of you means the world. Thank u! Please think good thoughts this week and send L the best healing vibes as we head east to meet with vocal specialist. We’re ready for whatever is next. Love conquers all.”

I definitely think it's just that he looks so pale.

I hope he's able to kick ass when he comes back to the stage.
