No Silver Springs?

Hmmm... that's an interesting way to look at it. You may be on to something there.

Who gives a **** anyways???

Another excellent point.

Or... do you believe that Kristen is the surrogate mother of Stevie's baby?

The use of the word "I've", for starters, but this is all really beside the point.

Kristen saw this, attacked Stevie after the show. Some believe that it was a high-five some believe it was a bitch-slap. You decide. In any case, Silver Springs was axed because she was sick. Or, tired, as I heard. Or, there was a curfew.

Or...at least this is what I heard from some fans.

Lindsey was so distraught he went to the bar to pick up chicks. And left with three of them!!

Thank you.

However, I think that Carne is questioning the validity of this sighting because it originated from certain shippers who have made the outlandish claims about the surrogate mother and the "Kristen-only-got-pregnant-so-Linds-would-marry-her" theory.

I understand that. However, what I don't think most FM fans understand is that the "surrogate mother" bullcrap was made up by a poster who NONE of the able-minded shippers (like myself, Marissa, and many many many others) claim at ALL. Of course, I think this is the stupidest story I've ever heard, and unfortunately it makes all of us (the ones who do have valid points and the information to back it up) look very, very foolish. Of course the "surrogate mother" story is RIDICULOUS and sounds like it came out of the worst kind of fanfic drivel. Just know that not ALL of us are that out of touch with reality! But isn't that how it is, always.... one bad apple spoiling the whole bunch... *shakes head*

As far as the children, I am worried about them most of all. I lived this situation as the oldest of three children whose parents stayed in a marriage for us and us only. Everytime I think about Will, Leelee, and Stella I think about that pain. So I really think it is unfair for ANYONE to say that I'm not thinking about those children-- it is BECAUSE of them that I think this situation is JUST NOT RIGHT!

Ok, {yawn} baby, or no baby, maybe it was Bubbles the chimp....back to "Silver Springs" not being played due to Stevie having some sort of illness that kept her from singing it...

...back in 1976, I saw them at the GW Forum (as OPENING act for Dave Mason), two songs after Stevie just lit up the place with one of those era's "Rhiannon"s, they STARTED into "Landslide" but stopped after the first line, Stevie turned to Lindsey, put her hand to her throat and shook her head...Lindsey apologized for not finishing the song because Stevie had a bad cold. Of course, she hit every note on all her backgrounds on "Over My Head" & "Why"...and later she was in fine "tongues" during the crescendo of "Green Manalishi"...but after stopping "Landslide", she didn't do another lead vocal the rest of the set. And because they weren't the headliner, they didn't do "Blue Letter", they did "Rattlesnake Shake" instead. So, I take it at face value that she didn't do "Silver Springs" because she was sick.

After making up at their hotel over a couple pints of moo-shu pork, Stevie and Kristen went to apologize to Lindsey. They knocked on his door. No answer. Knocked again. No answer. Then they heard a squeal. Kristen opened the door to find three random shippers, screaming about some sort of "Tusk." In any case, all three were bloodied up by Stevie and Kristen and have exacted revenge by posting the exact seats and location of Kristen's new baby, Stella. And they're still waiting for the sweaty towel Linds promised 'em.

What isn't right?

I'm not sure we're referring to the same thing. My concern for the children is that people come on these boards and pass on rumors, some of which metamorphose with every telling into a bigger monster, and that this stuff will be archived somewhere, and that some day one or more of these children are going to chance upon all the hurtful speculation. The voyeuristic impulses that are compelling people to post some of the drivel I've read about Lindsey and Stevie could one day have real consequences.

But it ain't happened yet.

I just got choked from laughing at that. Thanks.

I do too. There could well be something about the range she needs for the song that she couldn't hit if her throat was bothering her. Her vocal coach or her doctor might have advised against doing that song for one night, or even for a while.

No ****. I'd be very hurt if I found out that someone drew comparisons between me and Blanket Jackson.

We need a make-up-your-own-theory thread about what the heck happened to Stevie and SS and Lindsey and his eye. LMAO!!!!
