WOW. That was incredible. More ways then one. The politics and the pull always dragged me back here. Let's talk a little chemistry...
I miss Chris, but with all due respect and depending on how you look at it, her absence doesn't hinder FM as much as it makes them a lot more raw, musically and otherwise. I'm still seeing two couples here. Two pairs of soulmates, interpret that however you'd like
Mick was never the 'third wheel', Chris was. She brought style, grace, and suddelty into the fold, but she's still understated, like John. When I look at the band visually I kind of divide it Stevie and Mick on one side and John and Chris on the other, dreamers v.s. realists. Lindsey's always in the middle and pulling more to the right with the realists despite how philosophical he is and because of the fact he compliments Stevie by nature.
But the 'married couple' bickering that John and Mick do is just as obvious and really makes me raise my eyebrows at the comment by John years back, "The only two people that haven't slept together are Lindsey and I, and there's still time for that"
Though, again, Lindsey and John would make about as much sense as John and Chris did or that Mick and Stevie did because there's not that black and white.
Now MUSICALLY, my god do I feel like a twirp. I don't have the album yet, and the best I've done as a fan is see the concert this past summer at the Xcel Energy Center in Minnesota... BUT...I think it's about time I came back to worship
