LA show - Lindsey was fantastic, Stevie was not

As I recall, Lindsey got amazing press back then. Yes, he had suffered from self-imposed obscurity, but he at least had not gone through the roller coaster of now the press loves me, now the press thinks I'm a clown that Stevie experienced. Rightly or wrongly, she got a lot of mean press and a lot of fans weren't buying her music. She should have taken some time off and regrouped.

Lindsey's obscurity had nothing to do with the press. The press loves Lindsey. He probably gets more magazine covers than Stevie. Hey, there's all those guitar magazines that are chomping at the bit to interview and photograph him. No, the press ain't Lindsey's problem. His problem is the public's tastes. [/B]

Well said!!! I have a plethora of mags with L. Buckingham on the cover since 1997. (Not that it matters here but I'm a female) The Dance garnered a whole new fandom for the Mac's mastermind.
I thought L. Buckingham was the star of that DVD. He hit his stride in the '90s, and is a better guitarist and frontman than he ever was!!
