I'm ashamed that I've followed this band since I was a kid.

For them to end like this, with this SH**SHOW? They have no quality of character, none of them. No respect for the HUGE LEGACY they built.

Just a bunch of idiots, trolling along in their money train.

I used to worry about who was going to "drop" first. Now, I only hope that Lindsey is last.

I think that's partially true about Stevie. But I believe it's just
as true that she can't make music anymore. Good new music.
I think she just can't write great songs anymore. So it's a bit
of a cop-out for her to use the excuse that it won't make her
any money. The only success she's had in the past 30 plus
years solo was Trouble In Shangri-La. And that was only
because VH1 plugged it for a whole month.

Lindsey probably wishes his albums sold more. But if it was
his ego he was worried about, I don't think he'd release another
album. After his second album, none of the others have been
successful with the numbers. But he's an artist. It's not always
about the money.

That’s literate enough for you?

I'm no longer a diehard fan. In fact, nowadays I prefer to go see local bands for free or for less than $50 a show, like Bonniedoon from the Blue Mountains and Georgia June in Sydney.
Not telling others what to think, if you think my word is Gospel, that's your interpretation, not my intention.
Poor Lindsey, receiving $$$ settlement, and never having to work with his arch nemesis ever again. (Let's see who takes that juicy bait!)

In Micks mind...
Lindsey and middling money...Stevie and megabucks.
No intergrity...

I still don’t understand Christine, why would they have disbanded without Stevie.
They could have made another Album and this time said it was Fmac.
John is a lemming just follows Mick.

Lindsey is very wealthy, and because of producer monies, and wiser investment choices, possibly more wealthy than Stevie.

Stevie made an empty threat. She has never had any intention of leaving Fleetwood Mac. Christine stayed with the band she committed the rest of her working life to, she gave that guarantee, to her it was iron clad, and did not change based on other personnel changes.
John doesn't want to make a fuss. Who can blame him.

No I meant tour with Lindsey and no Stevie, middling money.
Tour with Stevie, no Lindsey, megabucks.
That was the choice in Micks mind.

I can't believe I have actually been looking online for tickets to the Philly, Baltimore or Boston show.

I didn't go to Pittsburgh because I was so mad at Stevie, but I have been a Mac fan since 1975 and have never missed seeing them on tour.

It just blows me away what Stevie did and that the others said "ok"

I even had thought of going to the Rock n roll hall of fame ceremony. I'm such a fool.

Stevie backstabbed a man she has known since high school. Whom she loved and he loved her. Because of him she is in Fleetwood Mac and now in your final years, you throw him out because your mad at him. She has shown me that she thinks only of herself and not the legacy of Fleetwood Mac.

This could have been the final tour for them. Stevie won't record so why bother after this. Just keep your distance from each other for the tour. Man up. I mean really Stevie, you think everyone loves you all the time? Sorry, I'm letting the anger out right now. LOL

Yes to all of this. Mick and Christine are taking the hit for Stevie, but they're letting everybody know that she was the responsible for Lindsey's ousting. As if that was letting them off the hook!
I'm sure their intention is to knock on Lindsey's door once the tour is over and they're all away from Stevie's sight. I surely hope he and his family are not remotely ready to welcome all of this traitors into their lives again. They really not deserve any kind of forgiveness.

What some people don't get is that she wanted to get back at him. For what? Well, only she knows, but this was a calculated and well planned revenge.

I'm sure she wasn't counting on the heart attack, but he survived and she said two or three stupid words and that was it. She thought she was ok with fans. She's not.

They aren't going to knock on his door after the tour. They have no relationship with him they want to salvage. They simply don't care. If he's around, it's goo goo eyes, like he's a brother. But if he isn't there, they don't think about him.

Christine and John should both be ashamed.

Lindsey let us know it was all Stevie, but Mi$k and €hristine have confirmed it (hopefully those blinded by Stevie’s magic believe it now) I really hope when they attempt to knock on his door, and I really do think they will, Lindsey tells them to f-off

Curious why you think they will want to knock on his door. According to the Billboard article posted by Kak125 on the Present Band forum, the tour is on track to gross a hundred million dollars on the North American leg. They don't seem to be hurting.

I just noticed this was posted last night.

Reminds me of being really young and immature. When I wanted out of a relationship, for no real reason, I looked for and found some excuse to make it easy for me to break up instead of facing the truth. The ugly truth that I was just ****ty. Girls, you know this move right?
