Steve A**** - "While working local security for Fleetwood Mac we were instructed to "stand with shoulder blades against wall and DO NOT make eye contact with Ms Nicks", when she exited the backstage area! This while Mic Fleetwood spent nearly 90 minutes in a tiny room doing a Meet & Greet making sure EVERYONE got autographs and pictures."

Yeah, it's not that bad, but I LOVE that their all instructed not to make eye contact with her.:rolleyes:
I heard that story but it was about Diana Ross.

And the horse that she rode in on. :lol: If I never read her name again, it would be too soon!!!

And that Lindsay? She's a tw*t, too.:cool:
:lol::lol::lol:

One possibility is that Stevie feels that doing another record with this line-up now will ultimately tarnish the band's legacy, since it won't be a multi-platinum seller (the only one from this line-up not to do so).

If that's the case, I think that's a cop-out. Fleetwood Mac's commercial legacy was sealed a long time ago, but the story of the band's creative legacy is still being written. Ultimately, long after the band is gone, that's what people will remember. Just look at how popular "Tusk" has become with a generation that was either too young or not even born when it came out.

agree.

and their current creativity is staying locked up somewhere and we have to wait years to maybe hear some of it, when it will not be current anymore.

Honestly, for decades now, my "Stevie issues" really had more to do with her lemming like fanbase, than Stevie herself. In the past few years though, it's now a dead heat! :p

Well, I think OSOTM is pretty good, tbh. But I surely don't think she can do no wrong.

I agree that she has a lemming-like fansbase, but I actually think what's worse is the people who dislike OSOTM, Street Angel, and that whole period of her work simply because Stevie herself has now practically disowned it. That's just blindly following whatever she says.

Maybe I'm just being defensive because I really like OSOTM. I hate Bella Donna, though...

Good point about the OSOTM/Street Angel period. There were moments during that time where she was in amazing voice, (check out some of the live recordings from that period... wow), her back up on Rick Vito's Desiree, and songs like Rooms on Fire are among her career's best writing, unfortunately it's become overshadowed by some serious missteps, but to me, the era had a lot of potential if she had had Tom around at the time to give some "Hard Advice".

I like OSOTM ok. Street Angel though - not so much. :cool:
Stevie CAN do wrong. Just like anybody else.
