Apparently a settlement offer has been sent LBs way

yes, it seems like it would be a stretch to think her tweet indicates everything is fully and finally settled, but rather that the process itself is going on in a manner that is contradictory to what the band had publicly declared, i.e. that it's not coming down to a day (figuratively) in court but rather ongoing negotiations between the parties. "Can't we settled this outside of court?"

I haven't commented too much on this whole fiasco, as I've lost a fair bit of respect for the band's management skills. I wish beyond hope that they would somehow put all this aside, hug one another, and truly apologise and forgive each other... and welcome Lindsey back into the fray. I don't see how that could be (I mean hey, Chris came back and it always seemed somewhat possible for her to do so)… but this scenario feels like it's gone too far and that Lindsey would never return to the ranks.

I see the motivation behind the tweet as being a deserved response to the obnoxious "We look forward to our day in court" statement, a statement that (even though it was most certainly contrived by the lawyers with zero input from actual band members) implied a clear subtext of not only "We are in the right and he is in the wrong" but also "Lindsey is a liar." Even if the statement was a standard flourish for litigation tactics, the message it sent to the world served as yet another misrepresentation and denegration of Lindsey's position (just like Stevie's fake news broadcast on national TV in saying that "one of us wanted to wait a year" to go on the road).

Whatever it is, it’s another sad moment in the disgraceful end of the band.

The fact they couldn’t get it together to give fans the gift of a final tour continues to blow my mind.

yup, exactly. that's all that tweet is saying.

except to people who are willingly putting their heads in the sand - or trying to convince others they should . KB tweet is a reply to that FM publicist statement they issued saying "we deny everything! we will see you in court!"

apparently they stopped denying real fast.

Tough to deny when they are stepping in it every time they opened their mouths. But you are so right Elle. I think I am in the minority, but I do hold Christine as accountable as the rest of them. Although LB's comment that she was fragile is interesting, she's a big girl, playing in the big leagues, she needs to own this. John doesn't speak so it is what it is. Stevie and Mick will own it. Oh they will spin a tale that GPS and The Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz collectively couldn't help you follow, but they will own it. This is the band of my life. If it wasn't so sad, I'd be lapping the drama up. But I can't. It really is disgusting.
