He was never, ever going to be on Lindsey's side. Ever. Period.

So he was Stevie's Satan, but never would he be Lindsey's.
Makes me curious how many times he hit it(Stevie)?

I mean, he might be even shorter than she, so maybe even she wouldn't go for it?

Nah, I'm sure she'd make it work out(he may have needed a step stool)...

Irving was so overly protective of Stevie and his cash cow. The strong arm to rehab saved her life but I am referring to his cease and desist letter to David Letterman because he was playing Stevie's I Can't Wait video. I think everyone was overly sensitive because of Stevie's condition at the time but it was beyond ridiculous. David was a fan and promoting the song. But it led to great TV for about a week. Years later when Stevie did do Letterman in 1994 Stevie blamed her "old" management and said she took pleasure at firing them.
If you have not seen it here is Letterman mocking Frontline Management. I love that David just mocked the hell out of Frontline all week for their ridiculous telegram and then lying about sending it. He gives out the address to Frontline on air.

Yes! And that's why I struggle to understand why Lindsey hired him. Irving had been Stevie's manager since the post Tusk years. He should have known who he was dealing with. Artists are naive when they're young and just starting out; there are thousands of well-known cases. But by 2011, Lindsey already knew how that world worked, and in any case, he had the money to hire the best lawyers in show business before signing anything. Mystery to me.

PS: Fleetwood Mac didn't 'evolve' in 2018. It just dissapeared. My feeling as a fan at that moment, but I think time has proven me right.

How dare she! (Nightmare reference for those playing at home)
Her split from Kim was announced before the tour. She did that famous interview with ET saying "I can't just not go on the tour; my life has to go on"

I always loved the pics of her on Jimmy's arm at some awards show with Kim behind them.
