I wasn't sure if Lindsey would make a social media post about Brett's passing. Lindsey has seemingly been reluctant to use social media when it comes to his personals life, particularly regarding family and friends. It was nice to read and it was written succinctly without using any Lindseyisms. I believe he is the only member of Fleetwood Mac to publicly acknowledge Brett's death.
As for who may replace him on a Lindsey tour, my inclination is that he won't be replaced. Mike Kianka can always add one more Keyboard to his rig. We all know technology can sub for players, so much of the instrumental parts he was responsible for will continue to be heard. I actually think where he will be missed most, links back to what Rick Springfield mentioned. Brett was a very good singer and his high range sang above and / or fattened Lindsey's leads a lot in both FM and solo performances. Let's face it, one less touring musician also reduces the costs, especially when taking the show overseas. J
