Christine definitely makes the most sense. I agree with you, Neil does seem like a standup guy. I said Neil before, because he’s actually singing LBs songs. If it’s not Christine, I’d actually rather have it be Stevie over Mick. We shall see soon enough I guess!

Mick “wished him well on his recovery” at the end of the show when half of the people had already left.

Of course he waited and probably only the clean up crew heard it. Do we have any more reports on the show tonight? Was Goat gloating?

The only thing I've seen, from a former? Ledgie, was this, posted a couple hours ago, on Facebook. I'm not including their name. Even though we're fb friends, it's been quite a while since they posted here, so I don't even remember their Ledge name.
--------
"At the beginning of GYOW Neil said, “Let’s sing this for Lindsey, get well!” I didn’t get this on video tho. Then at the end Mick said a bit and I got it so I’ll post it later. Stevie was pretty quiet most of the night.
---------
And HOW F*CKING RUDE for them to have Neil say it. Like the a$$holes that have known him for 43 years couldn't say it. #SCUMBAGS

Hate can be pretty destructive, so I'm wondering how
much longer you guys and gals plan on carrying it around?

Thankfully our guy is recovering.

At this point Stevie could have fired the tech guy and it would give them one more excuse to vent their anger and frustrations. Heck, maybe their fave tv show is in hiatus too long and they'll take it out on Stevie and Mick too.

Yep, hate can be destructive. Good thing there’s a fan forum where people can engage in harmless chat, vent and discuss these things and that no one’s out in “the real world” going postal.

Hope Lindsey recovers well and this puts things into perspective for Stevie and Mick. Between him and John it's sad getting reminders that all five of these guys are potentially not gonna be with us that much longer :/

Dick Fleetwood is WORSE than $tevie. He's a f*cking scumbag!

The only thought he ever has, IMO, is "where's my next scheme dough coming from?". What a LOSER he is.

I know it’s a case of..damned if they didn’t, damned if they did...but they should have said something, some kind word of thought for their friend if 40 odd years.

I think shame has a lot to do with it, I think they are starting to be ashamed of their ****e actions.
Pity it has taken such a drastic thing to make them feel ashamed, publicly.

Oh, I agree it was better to say something that to pretend nothing happened, but Stevie should have been the first to say something. They all should have said something, even John, but Stevie, the lead voice on the band, just says nothing?

Even NF that probably doesn't even know Lindsey had the decency to say something and pay tribute to his songs.

Stevie's silence only reinforces the idea that it was her idea to fire him. She has to know something like this might happen.

I'm sorry but I care about him and I don't know if wanting to mend things with her is such a good idea when she seems to want the opposite.

Good of Neil to say something. I'm sure he felt compelled since he's singing Lindsey's songs this tour; it's the only decent thing to do. Good on him. (I've felt that Mike and Neil both are innocent bystanders of this drama and not to blame for this crap, and now I have added respect for Neil. Glad he spoke up.)

Mick saying something at the end after half the crowd was gone?.... not surprising. It's absolutely on brand for him... wishy washy, half-hearted attempt to save some face, gets to check off a box for "mentioning Lindsey at the show" without having to face the full crowd's reaction... all right on brand.

These people are more and more appalling as time goes on. Mick doing just about exactly what one would expect of him, the bare minimum (but like you said, he can check the box off) - POS. And the other two not saying anything is equally appalling and gross.

As for Neil saying something, I'm with you - good on him. These guys took an opportunity to make some solid coin as hired hands. I don't blame them. I don't like the current band and find the fact that Neil is singing a bunch of Lindsey's songs to just be dumb, but he's doing what he is being paid to do. He clearly felt compelled to say something out of respect for Lindsey's contributions and I respect him for doing that.
