You know this seems to be one of his newer, recurring themes.. that Stevie and Christine were this lethal combination "egging each other on" to leave their respective relationships. Does he think that if Christine hadn't been around Stevie wouldn't have left him?? One toke over the line, dude.

first time i heard him say that was almost 2 years ago at 92Y Q&A. audience kinda reacted with "yeah right" so he corrected himself as he was speaking and said that it would probably take a little longer for them to break up than it did without Christine-Stevie mutual support. or something like that. i have a recording of it somewhere.

He has said this for about 15 years, at the every least. It's not something he repeats ad infinitum, but he has certainly been mentioning it for quite awhile. He says he and Stevie were in turmoil and may or may not have made it, but due to Christine being there, they definitely didn't.

I find it annoying. Clearly with all the shrinkage he's had he must know that his and Stevie's relationship was pretty unhealthy and needed to end. (Even after it ended it remained unhealthy for yeaaaarrrs).
It's an irritating bit of masculine denial... blame those yapping females for colluding and wrecking everything. I love him but when he says sh&t like that I want to hit him over the head with his guitar.

He seems to be saying that she expedited the process. It was going to happen eventually, but it happened earlier than it otherwise would have. I don't think he's blaming Christine for "ruining a good thing" or anything like that.

He uses so many words, yet says so little.

well said!!

and, not just so many, but throwing bunch of big words into the pot, mixing them, and then sprinkling them all over various sentences for some strange inexplicable reason.

" 'Sad Angel' we play very early in the set, and for the song of Stevie's, she tells a story - a very long story - as an intro about how it predates our involvement with Fleetwood Mac. ... "

this reminds me of years ago when Stevie would complain about how long Lindsey's "stories" and explanations of songs were during shows....

same ****, different day.
