I can play games over here, but this is just unbelievably rude, and only to axe me out of the discussion. And I'm biting my tongue over here. *di*t.

She had three or four songs per album. Just like the other two.

Yes, you were here, but I notice you haven't been back for a solo Nicks concert I thought that she was playing with FM on SYW was ancillary to seeing Buckingham for you.

In any event, if you don't hate her, so be it.

As for defending him, I most certainly have. Though I think it was an awful thing to do to your friends, I understood why he left before the TITN tour. I also routinely say his is very talented, I like his work, and were it not for him in the beginning and mostly thereafter, La Nicks's songs would likely have had less appeal -- with her it all depends on the producer and others, like Iovine, have done her justice as well.

As for being rude, it was not intentional. I rather thought I was agreeig with you as you lately hae made comments like Stevie should stay away from FM, etc. So, sorry if I misread that.

As for the three or four soings, I agree and it was not enough her (too much writing) or for him (wanted an outlet for his other more experimental work) or CM (too much material) So, I think they all released solo records for the just about the same reasons and to call her out for it and not them is wrong

But Jason, you wouldn't have flown to LB's Soundstage if Stevie was not on the ticket, would you?

Now, I see the guys equally. Well, I see Stevie more, only because she's on tour more. I never saw Chris on tour at all, but it's not because I don't love her very much. I just was seeing the Jacksons 11 times in 1984 and I . . . dropped the ball.

Yes, I would have. In fact, I made the reservations before I knew for sure that she would be there. That she was there was a boon to me to be sure. But, I truly enjoyed the whole show, esp. Save Me a Place and Trouble. I posted a review about somewhere where I go off on how talented he is. In fact, gldstwmn, Sulamith, and I sat there for awhile and marveled at his guitars after the show as we were able to approach them. I also walked up to him and spoke with him after a show.

As for Gerald and I, he is my friend and I think he will remain so no matter our differences here.

I have flown across the US to see both.

Seriously, I am pretty sure Gerald knows I meant nothing by that because he has repeatedly said he has not been a fan of La Nicks' since, I believe, Bella Donna - though he can comment of that himself. If he was, however, offended, I apologize here and now with my hat in my hand and head bowed.
