I know MacDouginator actually believes that Billy was hired specifically to look like Lindsey, but that's beyond belief to me.
I tell you what. When Tango first fired up on the stage, I coulda swore that Lindsey was back!!!! Yeah, I didn't have very good seats for Tango, but from my ****ty seats, it sure LOOKED, and even sounded like Lindsey. It took me a few songs to make sure that it wasn't.
Even if it wasn't a major factor in Billy's hiring, it sure didn't HURT anything that he bore a strong resemblance.
