I don't hate Stevie. At all. I've just had it with her because of the fact she does not join in on the album after Christine returned. I simply don't understand.

The fact that they have not brought out the album under FM name is probably because they contracted the name to Mick John Stevie and Lindsey in the last decade. Not just for the money: selling records does not smoke their chimney anymore. And the tour is already contracted, that is the moneymaker.

The fact that Stevie does not join in is holding them hostage in being a real Fleetwood Mac with new work.

Don't Forget: they recorded everything with Stevie's voice in mind. It is simply very disappointing that she leaves them hanging. That does not make me hate Stevie, that makes me hate her behaviour. Blerghh.

I don't think there's any contractual issue involved at all. There wasn't when Lindsey left after Tango or when Stevie left after Behind the Mask. Plus, even if there was a contract in the last decade, as you say, then Stevie would HAVE to record with them. Steve's not keeping them from releasing an album as Fleetwood Mac.

You can contract the name without contracting releases. They could have done that after Lindsey returned, and morphed his Gift Of Screws in Say You Will.

Plus, Christine says releasing an album without Stevie is a possibility. She said they hope to be done with the songs they have by the end of the year while also keeping the door open for Stevie should she have a change of heart.

Agreed, word for word.

It's the rudeness used to describe band members that I'm referring to as hate or negativity, not a difference of opinion. There are examples on this thread.

You in particular should not be allowed to speak up on rudeness to band members due to the insane comments about a new fleetwood Mac album being a lindsey solo album.


Sorry to signal you out but it's very true.

I wish these hit jobs against any members of FM will stop.This is worse then those hot topics that were in the chit chat section months ago.

[SisterNightroad]

The fact is that there's a thin line between a negative opinion and a gratuitous verbal aggression.
People usually use their hobbies to vent everyday frustration and internet places are perfect to take a step further and give an outlet to dissatisfaction through outbursts.
Unfortunately this kind of thing often generates a vicious cycle in which other people respond to negative statements with other more negative statements.
In this cases the best thing to do would be to ignore all the affirmations that seem just gratuitously aggressive.

I'm a fan of Randy Travis and they say that he sings through his nose.I have to say that Randy is 100 percent better then todays artists and so is Stevie.
