Things you wished you never knew about a FM member?
 
What personal information about a FM member do you wish you never knew?

I was just responding to the post about "goodbye baby" and i was commenting on how i wish i never knew about Stevie's supposed abortions. I mean, let's face it, we all want dirt but is there a limit to what you can handle? In this day and age there is so much information out there and i think it kind of changes our image of those that the information is about.

Anyway, like i said, i wish i never knew about the "abortions". I can't think of any others right now but i figured i'd throw it out there and see what you guys think.......

I wish I was never privy to that fateful night at Christine's house in '87. It's forever tainted my view of Lindsey as a person. :(

Consider the source, though...it was Mick trying to sell a book during a very financially troubled time for him. Chances of making it a bigger thing and adding "creative license" was very big.

Well, remember that we don't know all the details and that Mick's presentation of it might be "embellished." Of course, I'm sure something ugly went down, but was it as bad as it seemed in Mick's book? We can't know that for sure.

I do wish I didn't know about the Rhiannon kicking, but Lindsey was in a bad way back then (not that I'm excusing his behavior) so that I don't let it affect how I see him nowadays.

And I also wish I didn't know about Stevie's abortion. No - I take those statements back, lol. I would never want to wish for ignorance. Better to know all the facts and make your judgements, good or bad, based on that.

Edit: Dang it, ChiliD said it first! ;)

Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't believe or put any faith into what Mick said in his book; it was about as truthful as a grocery store smut-rag. All copies of that book should be burned, IMO. LOL I just think that *something* went down that night between Stevie and Lindsey and some physical violence erupted, Stevie has confirmed it. I'm sure Mick embellished a LOT, but it got violent. We just don't know how violent! :)

IMO...
 
I can't judge ANY of these folks. Sure, they did some stupid stuff earlier in life...who didn't? :rolleyes:

In response to the sitch at Christine's house...I wasn't there, we've heard from all of them about what happened, but only THEY know what REALLY happened. Lindsey MAY have slapped Miss Stevie or pushed her against the car or whatever, she MAY have been high, the others MAY or MAY NOT have helped her or tried to intervene..who knows!? :shrug: PERCEPTION.

Anyways...I'm kinda lucky to know as much as I do about these people!! I wouldn't want the whole world to know MY business and MY private life, but that's the price of fame. They have to live with that.

I believe Stevie has said she attacked him. Either way, violence is not cool.

Best to not let that particular episode color your perception of anyone because we'll never know the actual facts. The Rhiannon kick is another matter. But people grow.

Hmm...
 
The only thing I regret was reading Mick's book. I have a feeling most of it was fluff. I'm sure some of it really happened, but not to the extent that he described. Hey, it's Fleetwood Mac, and that's part of the appeal. The mess they went through and the way they treated one another...and it reflects in their music. It's great to see them come full circle, more matured, and love each other again. I think the whole ride is fantastic.

Mick and Stevie together... I still scratch my head sometimes...

Mich and Stevie's relationship, and Stevie's abortion came as a surprise to me. :distress:

Actually, I could care less about the dirt but if they voluntarily want to say some truthful dirt, I won't stop them from saying it. :)

When I was a teenager I refused to believe that Stevie did drugs.
I was at a Stevie solo concert in the mid 80's and Stevie almost fell off the stage. I still didn't believe she was on drugs. "Not my Stevie! LOL"~~~There are a few other rumors out there that I've heard, but I don't really want to bring them up. I think some things are better left alone.
