when has someone gone too far?

If she was a woman, I feel incredibly sorry for her. I couldn't believe that such degrading and misogynist remarks were made by a woman.

I shook Lindsey's hand from the stage and when he signed the photo I had, I grabbed his hand again and said Thank you! He said "you're very welcome." I mysteriously bumped into John McVie the day of the show in Atlanta, GA 2003. That was blind luck! I'm satisfied with those experiences.

Very good point. I'm very satisfied as well. Yeah, I've never met Stevie, but that sure doesnt change the way I feel about her. I mean I could've whined to whoever would listen that after all the shows I've seem over that last 2 years, that I deserve something. But that's not what I'm in it for. If it happens, great, if not, no biggie.

Hell no!!!

In a public place, I'd probably just get close enough to see them "for real" and then walk away. I'm not starstruck, and I was raised to not interrupt people famous or not, if they're in conversation....

You know, I dont think thats a big deal. I mean it is public information. AS long as someone doesnt actually go to the house it doesnt reeally bother me. I personally wouldnt do it, but I can remember all these "Star maps" that were all over hollywood when I was there in July.

In Vegas this past August, my group and I were like "eh...let's go eat and drink", instead of waiting for Stevie's band to come out. I just don't find interest in it anymore...meeting anymore remotely close to Stevie or Stevie, herself.

Curtis you get it. You're happy with where you are as a fan, and thats great.

Hotel lobbies ARE public places and yea, they could use a back entrance but I, personally, am hesitant to rush up to one of the band members in a hotel lobby. After running into Stevie in the Atlanta Four Seasons, I decided not to approach her. It was 1:00 AM in the morning and I knew she had just flown in from a show in Nashville. She was in very casual clothes, hair all askew, makeup every which way and I thought it was inappropriate to bother her when she obviously wanted to get upstairs and relax. Plus she was surrounded by her posse and I doubt they would have allowed it.

Lindsey..I do not think he minds the attention. I think he likes it to some extent but again, I personally, would not bother him more than once in a lobby. If I ran into him, I would definatley walk up, say hello, tell him how hot he is and ask for a picture. That would be enough. There would be no need to go back to another lobby. I would feel like he would think I was nuts if I "ran into" him again.

Restaurants, homes, funerals...completely and totally inappropriate. I think it was Tower who mentioned how spooky and scary it must be to be a celebrity trying to deal with obsessed fans. I agree and many celebrities, Stevie included, are quite scared of what they perceive to be obsessed fans. I would never want to do anything that would cross that line in Stevie's or her securities mind. Remember that story from the Atlantic City show that Marissa and I told? About the guy who Stevie saw during the beginning of the show and went off to Waddy about him? She was waving her arms all around and within 1.3 seconds Waddy had informed Marcus, who was then down in the audience yanking the guy out of the row. So, Stevie was afraid enough of this guy that he was thrown right out of the show, three songs in. (we all could tell Stevie was freaked out by this guy, just by the way she was looking at him and reacted to him) Marcus picked him out in a row full of fans in less then ten seconds so her security was familiar with this guy as well. There is definately a down side to fame and although most fans mean well and only want to say hello, a few bad apples ruin it for the whole bunch.

WOw, thats creepy. good thing they got the jerk outta there quick

See, look at what I've missed by not joining here earlier

I know someone on this board who goes out of their way to meet FM band members. They spend a lot of time and money plotting and planning which hotel the band will be staying at. This one person in particular really scares me. I will not point fingers or name names because then I look bad. Obsessed doesn't even begin to describe this person.

What is going to far as a fan? I think if you run up your credit cards year after year to go see the band all over the country, spend money you do not have to stay at posh hotels just because you know the band is staying there (and their whole focus is to "run into" the band in every city they go to and get their picture taken with them) , and then spend years trying to dig yourself out of debt you are either very immature or you have a serious mental issue.

We joke and comment about how many shows some people go to (which is great if financially they can afford it--kudos to them!!). What concerns me, is when someone can not afford these luxuries yet overextends themselves because they can not control their obsession to spend 5 maybe 10 minutes in a hotel lobby with their obsession. If they are that unstable and that obsessed, THOSE are the people that are capable of doing anything to the band members.

Well, i will admit that I'm guilty of half of that. I must admit I overextended myself the last 3 years for Stevie and Fleetwood Mac, but only that one time did I even approach the hotel. I look at it this way, traveling and seeing the country and the shows made me happy, and now I have to deal with the aftermath, and theres no one else responsible for that than myself. So I guess I'm in a bit of a pickle, but the memories were worth it!!

Stevie has said Joni Mitchell's Ladies of the Canyon was a major inspiration to her. She's also been known to hang out with Heart and do a Ladies who Lunch on the Road kinda thing...
