I have the same experience with her. I was actually coming around again... but, the things I've heard.... $he played thi$ very well. Mick is a pimp, it'$ Stevie pulling the strings. People can't and won't see it.

This just gets worse, I’m not a lover or hater of Stevie, she’s an integral part of the BAND I love.
But how is Stevie pulling the strings there’s five of them in this band.
You obviously hear a lot more in US than we do in the U.K........

Not really... people just hear and say things very freely, and usually they share the story they believe to be true based on who their favorite member is. Stevie fans say one thing, Lindsey fans say another. It appears Lindsey fans are giving Christine and John a pass and are focusing on Stevie, saying pretty much she has manipulated Mick and Mike Campbell.

But really, we know nothing other than FM fired Lindsey. We don't know why, and every 'explanation' on this board is speculation. Hopefully, a more forthcoming explanation from the five people involved will answer our questions, but until then just know that no one here knows why Lindsey was fired.

Christine is being raked over the coals on a few threads and people are referring to John as complacent. Again the official statement only says Lindsey didn't want to tour.

It didn't take the band long to replace Lindsey ... in a statement provided to TMZ, the group has announced that Mike Campbell (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers) and Neil Finn (Crowded House) will join the group for the upcoming tour.

As for the Lindsey situation, the statement simply reads, "Lindsey Buckingham will not be performing with the band on this tour. The band wishes Lindsey all the best."

To clarify it didn't say he didn't want to tour it said he wasn't going to. I'm having a hard time keeping up at this point.

Understandable... but there's a big difference!

So, does that mean that we actually have no reason to believe that Lindsey didn't want to tour?

Accurate description of what actually happened, whether the chiffonheads want to believe it or not. It's ok though, they'll die worshipping her and thinking that in every thing she does there's a valid reason for it. And a bit of golden dust. And of course, everything she does is because she loves them.

Awwww, how sweet is that?
