That's all anyone's saying. Stevie never even said a name in the article - it was the interviewer who assumed she was talking about Lindsey.

In true Nicksian fashion, I do believe you are right and that she's changed her story a bit - I now recall another interview where she said it happened two her twice in her life. Perhaps one was Joe, and the other was Lindsey at some point over the past 40 years. There's been plenty of opportunity, for sure.

Guys, I don't like Joe Walsh! I think he's kind of an ass and I don't even know anything about the dude, aside from all the horrible things he said about Stevie. I was just making an observation.

I can't say it any better, so I won't even try.

Also, I didn't realize until just now that the author attributed that break-up to Lindsey, without Stevie saying so specifically. I probably created some confusion earlier in the thread with that one
