Importance of Stevie versus Lindsey

[g. fish]

You're right. Lindsey thought his was negotiating based on his strong belief in touring behind new music. Then he tried to integrate a solo tour...and they fired him. His wife's "raw deal" comment confirms that he was blindsided.

And don't forget "There's nobody I would rather tour with than Tom Petty". After Tom died, the writing was on the wall. Now she's acting out on her grief.
