This is not the end of the world, and certainly there are bigger problems out there. But it’s important to me and by reading these posts over the months, it’s important to many.
Had the band decided to throw in the towel, I would still have been disappointed but it wouldn’t have been so upsetting. Putting together this ridiculous new band and having the ****ing nerve to have The Chain be their choice to debut - it’s a slap in the face and shows so much disrespect for fans who have stuck with them during all of their drama and games. Because we love them.

I feel much the same way as you do about this.And I'm 60 years old and been a fan of the band since the 1970's.The band members are going to have to discuss in upcoming interviews what happened with Lindsey and why in more detail.Whether they like it or not.It should be interesting to see what Stevie and the rest of them are going to say about it.Also looking forward to a longer interview with Lindsey, what he will say about all this.
Its been along time since I posted on here.I still read the Ledge.I don't have the time to post much online anymore.Its horrible,cruel,stupid,uncaring,very sad, the lack of loyalty and love Mick, Stevie and the band has shown toward Lindsey.The bands Legacy means nothing to them.Just another big money grab.I have no interest in seeing that tribute band now perform live in concert.I'm glad Lindsey kept his integrity,ethics,etc.I support Lindsey and respect him, proud of him. And love his guitar playing and solo albums and the music he made with Fleetwood Mac.We love you Lindsey.Everyone have a safe and great weekend and take care.
Its important to remember thart no one falls into a simple set of labels.
Lindsey Buckingham
