So Stevie isn't sure what the band is doing after she goes to Hawaii for 2 months? Hm

I think you've been highly unfair to Mr. Buckingham, based soley on your assumption that he's done something so totally out of line to her to cause his dismissal. Where is your proof? Do you not understand the dynamics of this band and the characteristics of all of them? You know Mick and Stevie had an affair whilst they were still in the band together? And Mick just so happened to be married at the time? What makes you think Lindsey is the evil perpetrator here? How do you feel about a man who cheats on his wife and a woman who repeatedly has affairs with married men? What does that say about their characters?

Agreed! The pontificating by Mitzo and his ilk in regards to character assassinations is laughable. Either be consistent or quit the accusations. At least we know M$ Nick$ slept around with married men, she loves to bang on about it, it's apart of her oh so glamorous rock and roll life.

She slept around years ago so therefore she fired Lindsey at the age of 70?!
You guys hate her. I get that. But it starts to sound like Trump Delusion Syndrome after a while, she is the personification of pure evil.

You sound the same with your comments regarding Lindsey and Kristin.

Like your side's argument that because Lindsey had some violent/verbally abusive tendencies between 1970whenever and 1987, he MUST have done something unspeakable to have been canned it just couldn't have been the rumored ultimatum of an insecure egomaniac who's worst traits have strengthened rather than softened with age, backed by a greedy financial idiot afraid of his cash cow flying out the window.

That doesn't sound like the personification of pure evil- it sounds like a very plausible scenario put into motion by two people who have questionable character & self absorbed motives.

You know how you can tell if $tevie is lying.

Her lips are moving.

Regarding why Stevie would wait until now to exact her payback on Lindsey for whatever nastiness he perpetrated towards her in the past, there is an old saying: "Revenge is a dish best served cold."

In other words, if you want to really get back at someone, don't do it, don't "serve it up to them" when you are hot, angry, really in the emotional upset phase. Wait. Let things, and let yourself, cool down. When your emotions are calmer, cooler, you can make a more rational decision. You can be more cold, hard, calculating if you are not still worked up and emotional. Wait. Carefully. Let the other person and everyone else think the fuss is over. And when you are not all fired up by emotions, you can plot an even more cold revenge.

I don't know if Stevie actually spent recent 30 years plotting out how to get her revenge, but boy when she saw her chance, she did not for one second let it go by. She jumped on it. She wasn't thinking about the longterm legacy of the band, she wasn't thinking about hey this is one last go with these guys and I'm free. She clearly still harbored resentments to Lindsey.

And I actually think she's harbored resentments or whatever towards LB since the SYW album. She's put up roadblock after roadblock every step of the way since then to NOT do anything more than the cash grab tours with this band. NOTHING else. Mick publicly groveled at her feet to get her to do stuff, LB publicly groveled, writing songs to her (the EP and even on SYW) and was very careful in interviews to say complimentary things etc. When groveling wasn't enough Mick gave interviews blaming her for the death of the band, etc. In fact, to me, Mick publicly shamed her about this a thousand times moreso than LB did. Why isn't she mad at him?

In any event, the opportunity came, and she took it. I don't think AT ALL that her actions were caused by Tom's death, or that she is "acting out of grief". Stevie is very clever, and she knows a good opportunity when she sees one. Tom's death just gave her a plausible cover for justifying taking her revenge finally.

Pretty spot on. IMO.

Not sure how many of you have checked out Lindsey's forum, but there is talk on his Instagram of how he wanted Fleetwood Mac to wait to tour till he was finished his tour.
