Christine is more than happy to join the world of Rock and Roll again. However, she's not going to do it without the millions of dollars everyone else is making. And don't forget, she no longer gets royalties.

As an actor, musician, or any kind of talent based organization. It all comes down to self preservation. Christine makes a stand, the whole thing blows up and she goes home and sits in her London apartment thinking of how she could tour a solo album by herself. Face it, you can speculate why she's team Azoff/Nick$; but, it's clear as day to me.

This was a female narrative. A girl power theme to fit in with today's politically correct society. Of course, they are going to beat on the men a bit. And especially the man that was fired because NOBODY WAS HAPPY.
It's sad that they didn't make it 3 hours and cover everyone's transgressions.

For example, I was really impossible to deal with on a professional level WHEN I WAS DOING ALL THAT COKE AND THEN PILLS, and I can't blame Lindsey for leaving.

.
Last point I want to make is this: I believe in my heart that Lindsey was fired in part because he left all those years ago in 1987. There is a small part of them saying, take that!!
It's wrong and it makes me ill. But, that's my 30,000 foot view

Oh, I'm sure the "Lindsey was a bad, bad, bad man" was perfect for today's perfect society standards. Me, poor, poor Stevie!!!

Well, it never occurred to me his firing was payback for those days, but it could be. They waited for him to sign for their upcoming tour, and next thing he knows, bam!!, you're no longer part of it! How does it feel now that we're doing IT to you?
