I’ve watched all the full clips on YouTube and she sounded great on all song performances.
Loved the twirl near the end of Edge Of Seventeen.

I'd normally agree with this but I can see why Lindsey, and anyone else from Fleetwood Mac for that matter, wouldn't be on the very long thank list that she has for her solo career. In the grand scheme of things she owes a lot to her association with him but as far as him DIRECTLY affecting her solo career? She always went on about he was discouraging of it in the early years with dismissive comments (Stop Draggin’ My Career Around was his name for her first hit) and how the whole band did not acknowledge Bella Donna when she returned for Mirage. He didn't have any part of her solo career at all until Twisted, after she had already had FIVE solo albums in the can and her most successful days were over.

Not saying it was right to not thank him, I would have since he was the entire reason she was out in the music world with Buckingham Nicks, but I don't see how its necessary in this context. She wouldn't have thanked Mick, John, and Christine either for the same reasons: they put her in the position to ascertain a solo career but had no part or encouragement of building it. Those songs were her songs, those relationships with Iovine and the Heartbreakers were built by her alone, and (in her view) she ended up being a successful solo artist in SPITE of Fleetwood Mac, not necessarily because of it.

If anything it might be in worse taste if she DID thank him. I can't imagine how great it would sound if she acknowledged his immense impact on her AFTER getting him booted from the band.

I'm back and forth on the issue, and agree that she owes a lot of what she became to Lindsey Buckingham, but the solo career isn't really part of that.

I agree, it wasn’t necessary to “thank” Fleetwood Mac. The group was mentioned in the context of the role that they played in her solo career. It was a great speech in typical Stevie style. She looked and sounded good and I’m happy for her.

On MSN there's a really nice article about her induction, along with pictures and videos. It mentions Harry Styles in the headline. I was wanting to read about other inductees as well but the article only mentioned her. Her induction and performances appear to be a highlight of the ceremony... maybe because of Harry being the one who inducted her and performed with her?

I have to say, Harry Styles gave a great speech and his performance on SDMHA was fantastic. That blue suit was killer, too.

From the performances I've watched, it looks great. She did slip up when she said she wrote Leather and Lace for Merle Haggard. I hope that it fixed in post production.

I couldn't get through the speech, it just started to ramble too much for me.

But when it airs on HBO, I'll be all in. LOL

She can thank or not thank whoever the hell she pleases, and does not answer to internet trolls.

She sounded great for Edge too. She probably had the most edgy rock and roll set!!!

She said she wrote Leather and Lace for Merle Haggard and she said that Harry Styles was from *NSYNC. She is losing it.

Jon, all the major news praised her performance and thought the mistakes she spoke about were funny. She's human.

How do you know that? "What if" scenarios work in every way. With her looks, drive and talent, she would have made it anyway, Lindsey, Fleetwood Mac or not. She has all the qualities a true star needs, she would have been even more successful without the band/the ex-boyfriend. This thesis is actually more plausible than yours. Because, comparing the solo-career success, the charting of the FM singles and the current tour of FM - it rather seems like Stevie "made" Lindsey and not the other way around.
Also, I don't see why she would thank any member of FM for the sucess of her solo career. FM were introduced to the Hall of Fame, so that is all fully covered imho.
