I'll probably go but I won't spend as much on tickets as I was planning to, and I probably won't encourage other people to go with me. I had a few friends that I was excited to bring, but I don't want their first experience of Fleetwood Mac live to be without its frontman.

I will never support anything to do with Mick. A big NO from me. The chain has been broken and can't be repaired at this point.
Bring on the Lindsey dates! #IstandwithLindsey

Been a fan since 1975, have followed the band through all the ups and downs of their saga. I will follow them to the end of the road. Looking forward to hearing the new incarnation with the two new members. I also look forward to Lindsey's new solo music as well. Loved the Buck/Vie album and hope there is more to come from those two. I only wish the best for all of them, that they are still performing at this stage in their life is a rare fete. My two sons were raised on FM and they love their music and when we are together you can bet FM is playing!

No ..but I will see Lindsey again if I have the chance. I still can't get my head around that not only was he fired but that he also apparently agreed to waive his solo dates and they still would not rescind his termination.Treacherous bunch of geezers and hags.

Decision was already made and it has nothing to do with his solo tour. If not he’d have been given another chance.

I wish I knew! Someone asked on another thread the same question. I think it was Nancy. If he was already giving up on his solo tour (one more time) for FM, why fire him?
I think that that “something else happened here” everybody is taking about is just Stevie wanting to get rid of Lindsey. But she needed Mick. So she has been sweet talking him into it probably since The Classics last year.

That "package deal" in 1975 turned out to be cancerous.

Yes, I'll go .. if/when they will perform in Europe ... I became a fan thru the Tango-concertvideo, so for a long time FM to me was Billy/Rick/Stevie/Chris/John & Mick. Lindsey was someone from the past ... the Time-lineup, was something completely different. But hey ... it was FM. The Dance didn't brought them to Europe and I saw 3 tours without Christine ... so what's the difference now when Lindsey is not around (anymore) this time ... it's part of their 'being Fleetwood Mac'. So I will attend ...

Look at the bright side: If all of you who are angry and blame Stevie for it now stay it home ... the chances that they'll play smaller, intimate venues will grow ... no younger girls that all be put upfront before Lindsey's spot (I was there 5 times as a somewhat grey, lightly overweight 40-somehing dude) etc etc

Lindsey was the only one of them to have retained any semblance of his live singing voice. I don’t really want to go see Crowded House dominate Little Lies and Don’t Stop. Sad 😢 just endlessly heartbreaking.

Disgusting is really a good description of how I think of Mick And $tevie as people. They are both disgusting, disloyal and self centered human beings.
