Mick’s daughters, John’s daughter, Billy’s sons, and especially Neil’s son seem none the worse for wear. Actually, Billy and Bekka themselves seem okay having grown up around it.

Mick has real regrets about how his older kids were raised as he put his career above all else. To each their own.

Still, to use that as an excuse (which Lindsey himself isn’t doing, to be clear) is disingenuous. Countless artists have kids and tour. Lindsey chose not to, which is fine. Touring wasn’t exactly his thing to begin with.
