NOT an uncommon occurrance in those days. From '75-78, there were some shows where she'd come out, sing the background vocals on "Station Man" & "Spare Me A Little...", belt out "Rhiannon" and that was it for her...they'd get to "Landslide"'s spot in the set and she'd shake her head and they'd skip ahead to the next song...she'd just stand there and shake a tambourine on the songs that she normally would sing backgrounds on, but any pre-'75 song ("Oh Well", "Green Manalishi", "Rattlesnake Shake"), she'd leave the stage altogether...there were many a night that "Why" & "Hypnotized" were only a two-part harmony between Christine & Lindsey.
