(Oh and if he had killed her, her family and the band would have to get in line behind me!)
Because of that guilt I have always had about not leaving Fleetwood Mac, flew off of the couch and across the room to seriously attack him. And I did. I mean, and I’m not real scary but I can be fairly ferocious. And I grabbed him, you know, which almost got me killed.
He ended up chasing me all the way out of Christine’s maze like house and down the street and then back up the street and then he threw me against the car and I screamed horrible obscenities at him and uh I thought he was going to kill me and I think he probably thought he was going to kill me, too. And um, I said to him “you know if the rest of the..if the rest of the people in the band don’t get you, my family will. My dad and my brother will kill you.”

I have a feeling that it was just as much Stevie as it was Lindsey. You're talking 10 yrs of feelings that had probably been bottled up so that the band could continue. Hence, the reason Lindsey left the band. He always says it was a survival move for him. He probably physically could not be in her presence at all without the need to strangle her. I can understand that, and I think all of us can. And like Stevie has said many times you know when people break up they typically dont see each other anymore, they had to see each other all the time. I can only imagine how draining emotionally that was from Rumours to Tango. Stevie yelling and screaming at Lindsey probably just made him flip. Especially if she told Lindsey he was being selfish, and it felt it was something he needed to do to keep his sanity.
