Stevie is being trashed in Twitter.
 
Getting Lindsey kicked out of the band is getting her a ton of negative press. I would not count on getting into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame if I Were her.

Except that she's been on the #1 list for votes since it started. So I doubt it.

Interesting that the news dropped now when he was silent about “the truth” for months.:]:lol::D

Rolling Stone chose when to publish the article, not Lindsey.

StevieandChris 10-10-2018 06:18 PM

Oh I agree. But it’s still interesting.

Maybe Rolling Stones is mad at her, don't blame them one bit. She blew it on this one.

she made her bed.
even if she came out and said something, which she won't
it would probably be lies anyway.

doubt this impacts her chances though. sadly.

He decided to give interviews when his album was coming out which makes total sense. If you READ the interview you know this was very hurtful to him and he had good and bad days. She really got him, that old goat.

Feather Blade 10-10-2018 07:32 PM

Checking to see if I care hysterical Twitter users are whining...Nope, still don't care...

Nick 10-10-2018 07:40 PM

The hell with Lindsey I say.

That’s what I say too. I think it’s time the band does an interview and tells their side of the story. We will see who was bashed on Twitter then. Let her tell all the stuff he has done to her over the years. I would absolutely love it! But she’s too classy for that. And us fans will make sure she gets into the Hall of Fame.

Who's truth? His or hers? Two sides to every story here.

Lindsey needs to join the #himtoo movement.

Buster 10-11-2018 11:10 AM

She will be fine.

I love how so many people take one person’s word as complete truth.

As much as I used to LOVE her, I just threw up a little in my mouth. She’s a mean, trivial old woman.

Yes, she will be fine. Lindsey will be fine. The band itself will be fine. Their legacy will be fine because we already have the music and it won’t go away.

Yup. She was done a long time ago but held on anyway.

And he is grumpy old man, who's former friends doesn't want to hang around anymore because he is a pain in the ass and they are done with him ....

One issue doesn't connect to the other. Stevie's chances of getting into the RRHOF are pretty good, I'd say, and that will be based on her celebrity and contribution to popular music. Does she deserve it? I'd say so. Am I critical of her behavior over the whole LB firing? Yes. But the two are exclusive of the other.

It should be based solely on such objective measures, but other more political factors do inform the decision. I think they pretty much put whomever they want in there, in the end. So if all of this makes the majority decide to block Stevie, they will. Now, I'm certainly not predicting she won't get in - I think it's still very likely. I'm just saying that it's not all about the music, unfortunately, and thus it is possible something like this could affect her chances.

Jondalar 10-12-2018 02:19 PM

After reviewing twitter and watching youtube videos, I don't think she will make it in because of Pat Benatar not being in, She is already in, and this controversy with Lindsey. Plus, her solo career was very good but not quite great. Many people compare it to Pat Benatar who hasn't even been nominated. Those are the reasons people site for keeping her out.

bwboy 10-12-2018 02:24 PM

The HOF wants people like Stevie in, because of her fan base. They're not going to keep her out over this, they're just not.

A nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

Just kidding, I know that wasn't what you meant.

Feather Blade 10-12-2018 03:44 PM

I'd be very surprised if she doesn't get in. This lawsuit thing is not going to be controversial to the public at large.

singertobe 10-12-2018 05:23 PM

I wanna see the tweets! SOMEONE POST THEM!!!!!!!!!

dreamsunwind 10-12-2018 06:01 PM

It's mostly just an online thing. The GP doesn't care too much about 70 year olds' drama, even though the fact that they're 70 makes it even more ridiculous. And not to mention that Stevie Nicks in particular is one of those celebs that has a lot of fans who are kinda cultish and basically refuse to even consider the possibility that she is a human with flaws and not a divine witchy goddess.

ahafan02 10-12-2018 06:05 PM

Wow so Lindsay is to be believed 100% but a woman, Stevie Nicks MUST be lying...jeez people, Lindsay is a girlfriend/wife beater but hey he's a man, so he must be telling the truth....

and Yet LINDSAY's diehard fans think he can do no wrong....pathetic if you ask me...

Whatever you think Lindsey's diehard fans think or don't think, it's not really the same situation because he doesn't have the same type of fanbase that Stevie does. She's got a cult that dress like her and have tattoos of her and host Night of 100 Stevie's etc etc. He doesn't have fans like that.

secondhandchain 10-12-2018 07:20 PM

Make no mistake about it. Your hero DESTROYED Fleetwood Mac. That is a FACT.

singertobe 10-12-2018 08:47 PM

They are all human beings with flaws. Let's leave it at that.

singertobe, are you still going to Mick's Meet and Greet? If so, have you given any thought to what you might say to him? This is a sincere question, btw- I'm not expecting you to ask him anything about Lindsey's firing or the lawsuit. Just wondering if you've given it any thought.

Stevie is not my "hero". I don't see my favorite bands/singers in such a manner. I'm not part of the small cult that acts like her or dresses like her. I know she's not innocent and certainly not an angel but to point fingers without being in the room when these discussions amongst the band members took place is insane. Lindsey is not known for his "kindness"...two sides to every story as cliched as that sounds but it's true. They have been fighting since the 70's and at their advanced age, they are never going to stop. It's a shame.

It's always like this when Lindsey walks away (or is fired). Some will point at Stevie, some will point at Lindsey. It's friggin' both of them folks. They both act like hurt lovers even after all these years.

I thought ahafan02 wrote a very reasonable post, but it's too bad you ignored it to just focus on the spelling of "Lindsay." My tablet constantly changes my spelling of Lindsey to Library for some insane reason, but I almost always catch it now. Very weird, but I suspect if I wrote Lindsay, it wouldn't change it to Library.

Other than how's Hawaii, what can you possibly ask Mick? How's the bank account doing?? Is Lindsey draining your bank account? Wreck the Porsche lately? How's the restaurant doing?? I have the feeling that the lawsuit question is like kryptonite to the band.

Lol Okay, there are several things wrong with this statement.

First off, Stevie enabled this behavior. She has been back in the band alongside him now for 2 decades and she just now reached her breaking point? We have had proof in the pudding that hes been getting on her nerves since the Destiny Rules doc and the SYW tour, it was incredibly obvious and apparent. If he was such an issue, why wait 20 years? Behavior like his past behavior doesnt spring up out of nowhere. If it was such a big deal, why didnt she leave the band or fire him then? Its telling why this is all happening now; her emotional anchors are gone. Her mom, her dad, Tom....all gone. She has no one to keep her grounded.

Secondly, everyone here knows Lindsey used to have serious issues with his anger and temper so no one is pretending any different. The issue here is how it was handled. What Lindsey said is true, the band is admired for the music, their talent AND the fact they rise above their issues to make timeless beautiful music. This taints that no matter the reality.
