Lindsey was fired. RIP Fleetwood Mac.

My considered opinions are nothing compared to the display that has been going on here this week.

Kristens account is mostly for her furniture but she has also posted personal pictures. Both accounts are real.

Her account can easily be verified. You assume I think it's not real. I don't know if it is or not.

I totally agree FuzzyPlum! 100% their accounts! I never thought I'd be on Lindsey's side 'cause I'm originally a Stevie fan but after how he was treated I am now....

You might want to look at all the parody accounts on Twitter.

Extremely ANGRY, with a personal ax to grind?

Yes, Homer McVie it's not worth it. I'm not sure what her/his (gldwmn) deal is. Could it be an extreme case of denial? Whatever it is she's never gonna convince me of the likely scenario that occurred between Lindsey, Mick and Stevie and of that those IG accounts are fake.

This is what I assumed from the outset. They cannot stand touring with him anymore.

Heck, the attention may even make radio play more of their songs, so the icon can go "ching-ching" or something and make some improvements to her house with her royalty check.

I have not seen the number of their "likes" on the FM page on FB diminish these past few days.

Well, it's anyone's right to change their mind and to to a show. The dust is settling and people might want to see them one last time.
For me this band is over. I'll go and see Lindsey.

I am not saying that this is the case but I do know that at the age of 70 I would not be trilled to have to work with an ex for months on end. Somewhere between Classic East and Musicares is where things really started to go off the rails. The reviews said he played and uninspired set at Classic East and he acted like a bit of an as$ solo on the red carpet at Musicares. There are photos and video. You can see it more in the video. I will find it later and post.

I don't know about PTSD issues, I have no idea if she has it. It was just my point of view.

I know he was mad at MusiCares. What I've heard was that there was a fight between Stevie & Lindsey because he yelled at Karen (I don't know what she did, if anything) and Stevie exploded about that.
Also ~ during the first day of rehearsal he supposedly said that she couldn't sing anymore and her voice sounded like sh!t. That's when she was like:"That's it".
I heard it from a good friend who heard it from a band assistant so...

Lastly, the reason the Buckvie album could not officially be called Fleetwood Mac was because Stevie is still legally a member of the band so her not being on the album means it is not a Fleetwood Mac album. That is different from Say You Will when Christine was not signed on anymore as a contracted member of the band so that LP could be called FM.

I get your point about the album not being called Fleetwood Mac but I seriously doubt she thought it would be a success and I don't think she expected them to tour behind it and it would be successful. She's been jealous of Christine & Lindsey doing stuff together since they joined.

No, the reason it wasn't labelled as Fleetwood Mac is because they'd need to perform live shows to promote the album and that would have caused problems without having Stevie. They'd already signed up for a tour with all 5 band members and the promoters for the forthcoming tour wouldn't have taken kindly to a Fleetwood Mac tour without SN. Furthermore they'd have faced problems from ticket buyers expecting to see SN only to find her absent.

Not entirely true, at least not in Europe (Holland in this case). They promoted the Time line-up as Fleetwood Mac. I don't recall any band pictures on posters or flyers or whatever. There was no internet at the time. The casual fan who didn't know any better expected Stevie Nicks. You have no idea how many people around me said:"WTF?? That's not Stevie Nicks" and left. I don't think they got into any trouble from ticket buyers at all. People just left and they were playing a small venue which was only half full.

They?! Stevie is the only one who can't stand working with him anymore.

Christine was perfectly fine during BuckVie, and Mick couldn't care less as long as Lindsey means money.
