After all, being famous doesn't mean you're any good, it just means you are willing to sell yourself out for what other people want. I wish that they could just open their eyes and see the real world.

I like Stevie because she's unique. I have nothing against Lindsey, I just am not really into his style of music. I prefer Stevie generally, but I really like some of his stuff too.

Jache77 and Rob130290 - proof positive that Fleetwood Mac and alcohol do not mix.

Unless you're playing bass for them, of course.

I believe that GOS was being sarcastic, hence the .

Anyway, this is how fandom is no.matter.what. I'm part of quite a few fandoms, and this one is no different in the So-and-So is better than What's-Their-Face department. You should have seen some of the hate spewed on the American Idols boards back in the day. I mean...woah. I'm sure there is still venom spewed, but I don't visit the AI boards anymore.

People always want THEIR idol to be the biggest/bestest/most greatest in the world. It's competition of the fandom.

Yes, Lindsey doesn't sell as many albums as Stevie or with FM, but who gives a shiz. I don't. I only care that he keeps making more solo albums and tours.

I like 'em both. The feud is stupid and childish.

In my oppinion they all have something to contribute. Each member past and present in Fleetwood Mac has brought their own unique style to the band. I agree Stevie is probably the most famous,but in terms of artistic merrit Lindsey had the balls to make them veto a Rumours II in favour of Tusk. While it didn't sell as well as Rumours,theis begs the question if they would have been able to make another Rumours II if they had wanted? Would it have been as successful? I don't like every thing Lindsey has recorded on his solo records ,but I would say the same applies to Stevie. I think years from now people will still love Stevie,but I think Lindsey will be remembered just as fondly I think for taking chances with his music and how he was a great producer for some of the Mac's hits.

Though I'm more of a Stevie girl I love Lindsey's music and I don't think he's less talented because he doesn't sell as many albums as Stevie. I don't understand why this "feud" is going on.

Maybe Stevie & Lindsey have started these arguments with fake usernames!

Here's the clue!!! I always imagine Stevie and Lindsey registering on the Ledge. Stevie's nephew tells her about us, (look what I found aunt...) and Ms Nicks, bitten my curiosity finally she registers with a pic of somebody she found in google using random search (she's been told that Lindsey is already a member and you know, she has to go on with her menace and follow him down in all dimensions, including the new Internet one. hahaha) (I always wonder how come all that master reels material and other "private" stuff circulates).

What name would she use?? mmmm. Any suggestions?

Back to topic, I couldn't tell which my favourite is. I love all the members of the band, Mick for his crazyness, Christine for her english humor and being so easy-going and cool, John because he's...GREAT (but what I meant was...why don't you just leave the room...please, he deserves an Oscar or something hahaha). I also like some people of the FM family, like Richard Dashut, the late Judy Wong, Ray Lindsey, Sharon Celani, Lori Perry-Nicks, Ken Caillat, John Courage, Bob Aguirre...
and Stevie and Lindsey are Stevie and Lindsey. I cannot choose between people who have created such beautiful melodies as Dreams or Big Love, or people who write things like "no one knows how I feel, what I say unless you read between my lines" or "time recedes, with a fatal drop, dusty fury, on a mountain top, cut the chord if you can". coz they both can sing together such amazing songs as Beautiful Child or Crystal. You just have to hear them to realize how great both are and how better it gets when they are together.

I never mind about what people do, what religion they practise, which sexual tendencies they have or if they vote left wing or right wing. So I think this is not a matter of loving Stevie or Lindsey, but a matter of respect.
