They just did a fantastic project together.

She could have, she SHOULD have put her foot down, and said, "fire him, and I'm gone, too". That WOULD have stopped it, no question!

Somebody convince me that that wouldn't have stopped it??????????

I think Chris could definitely have stopped it, and I am gutted, like you that she didn’t. I think she’s the only one that all respect and all would have listened to. She doesn’t have “issues” with anyone. Even her and John seem to get along well. I love her, but man, I’m disappointed in her esp big time. She has to know this was a big mistake for all the die hard loyal fans.

Stevie could have stopped it ..she is Fleetwood Mac's cashcow without question. If she had told Mick if he goes I go we would not be having these conversations. In 1987 she did not want him to leave. This time she did and I have no doubt that she is the catalyst behind his firing .Like others have said Chris and John just went with it .This by no mean should absolve them especially Christine in light of she and Lindsey's recent work together. So very tacky of her.I don't think any of them care much about the die hard fans ..just the $$$.

I don't begrudge anyone who is going to live shows or love the additions of the two replacements. I won't be going to any of the shows even if I could and I certainly won't be buying the album that inevitably is released.

How can you stop something you want to happen?

Exactly. That's ridiculous. She wanted him fired, so why would she stop it?

She finally became the leader of FM. Musical director. The next tour to feature all kinds of keyboard solos by her, plonking along on the two chords(F and G) that she knows.

PLONK, PLONK, PLONK, PLONK, PLONK! To the gypsy......

She's quite the visionary...

I won't be going to any Fleetwood Mac shows with this lineup. I mean what's the point?
I am done with them. Mick are you listening to your fans?

What I was trying to say is that I know for certain that Stevie is the reason that he is gone because if she wanted him to be in the band he still would be no question. Guess I just worded it absurdly ..sorry.

I know, I know! I was trying to making it sound more obvious for those who STILL believe this is all Mick's solo work.

Stevie IS the powerful force in the band. For the good (filling arenas) and for the bad (firing Lindsey). Why is it to hard to believe, I don't know.

I agree with you. In actual fact, any one of the 4 of them could have done something, but chose not to. So darn disappointing, suck the life blood out of you disappointing.
