What's with the anti-Mick hostility?? He's not the only person who puts a FM tour together. If Lindsey and Stevie didn't want to do it, they could have opted out. They are adults for ****'s sake!!! It's not like Mick's holding a gun to their heads!! John doesn't have to do it either, he could tell Mick to "**** off" any time he wanted. Mick wouldn't take it personally, they've been friends too long. If anything is a rip off, then I'd say this tour is a rip off by the whole band!! "Unleashed" my ass!! It's the Tusk tour revisited with a couple of solo songs in there. That's far from "unleashed" in my book.
Why is it always Mick that gets blamed for this crap??!! Why not lay the blame at those who are out in the media talking ****?? Like "Mama" or what ever she's being called today?? She's out there talking about what a negative experience the SYW tour was and her and Lindsey not getting along, blah, blah,blah, blah, blah, drama queen, drama queen, drama queen!! If she's that unhappy, then why not just retire from FM and stay as a solo artist or go back to AZ and shut the hell up!!!!! I mean seriously!! IF indeed it's that bad, and not just another attempt at media hype, then why would you keep putting yourself in that situation??!! I say get a grip Stevie! Either leave the past behind you as far as Lindsey in concerned, or quit the band.
Sorry, not trying to get on a rant here, but holy **** I'm sick of this crap!! As much as I love her work with FM and as a solo artist, I'm just getting tired of the drama. Playing the blame game all the time just gets really freakin' old after a while.
Mick's a businessman. He has multiple ventures going on. His wine, FM, Island Rumours Band, Mick Fleetwood Blues Band (Which totally freakin' ROCKS by the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), and other stuff I'm sure. Does he really need to tour with the drama of the Buckingham/Nicks duo? Not really!! He could cut it loose and be fine from a financial standpoint, I'm sure. Why blame him?
Just had to vent that out.
