Has Stevie "Gone to Ground?" Gone "Silent?"

[Ghost_Tracker]

Not to detract from the excitement of discussing the tour and calendar and everything else; but I wanted to throw an idea out to you guys and get everyone's thoughts on it. Please bear in mind that I'm not putting her down in the slightest and I'm not even saying that it's a "bad" thing - but -

Stevie has said nothing to us in almost six months now.

Nothing.

I know this statement on the surface may seem totally ass-backwards wrong.
But look at this -

"So, as Mick and I went from room to room delivering their tiny iPod~ they told us their stories. Mick became his tall, loving, father figure, English self~ taking in every word they said~ remaining calm (at least on the outside) inspiring them. We floated from room to room . . . The morning of the second day, Mick and I went to Arlington National Cemetery. . . . . He [Kennedy] is everywhere there and you can feel it. . . . .So all that said, what we try to do on our visits, is to use our power to call back that charmed, childlike innocence~ and the answer to that, in my opinion~ is music. Music gives you the strength to keep moving. Music inspires you. Inspired people don’t stay down."

(on Bob Woodruff) -

"That’s what I.E.D.’s , improvised explosive devices, do. They destroy from a distance; a cowards bomb. We don’t really know the extent of their injuries.

Pray for them.



We leave for Melbourne Australia tonight at 11:45. I got up at 10:00 today so I could have my quiet time on this, our last day in L.A. We will be back in 5 weeks. . . . .

So, off I go into the wild blue yonder once again. What an adventure~ and New Zealand too…I’m sure the minute I get on the plane this nervous, “not wanting to go” thing will be gone` just like stage fright.

So, bon voyage, America, for awhile. Goodbye, house that I love and, goodbye “tree of my heart”~
I will be right back~
Love,
Steph."

"walked into Walter Reed today a single woman with no children~ I walked out~ a mother, a wife, a girlfriend, a sister, a daughter, a nurse, a patient’s advocate~ a changed woman~"


Since these entries published on Nicksfix, 6 months ago and more, i.m.o. there's been NOTHING comparable in terms of giving us information, telling us how she's feeling, etc.


Oh - she's done many, many interviews, you say? Yeah she sure HAS! In them, we learned that she's pissed off at Lindsey; she's sad that Christine has left the band and still holds out hopes; she's working on some sort of "Three Birds of Rhiannon" song or poem; she feels that she's the only one that can tell her story; the internal politics of Fleetwood Mac sometimes take the fun out of recording and touring; big huge record companies can be difficult to deal with; she feels that writing is best done only when you're inspired; Landslide is about when she was thinking of giving up and going home; and GEE Phoenix sure is HOT!

Don't get me wrong, Crystal Visions was great and she was pretty open there - mostly humorous, but open. But when's the last time she did the "Ask Stevie" thing on Nicksfix, just as another example?

So yeah, I want to toss this idea out there and ask what everyone thinks -

Stevie's "gone to ground," folks... She's "gone silent" and isn't really saying anything to us at all right now.


What does everyone think?
