Lindsey Buckingham Talks Fleetwood Mac Tour, New EP - Rolling Stone

[WildHearted]

"She pretty much burned all her bridges in Los Angeles. She sold her house, ended her relationship, quit the band and moved back to England. It was a fairly sweeping set of changes, and something she needed to do for her reasons, though I'm not particularly clear on what those were."

I find it hard to believe that 15 years after the fact, Lindsey's still in the dark on why Chris is gone. It seems fairly clear (and well documented) that she left because she hated touring / was over the whole lifestyle / wanted to go home /was having panic attacks, etc. Yet he seems to insinuate there's still some sort of a mystery involved or some piece of the puzzle that's still missing.

Also the fact that they seem so concerned about when Without You was written is really amusing to me - that seems like such a nonfactor in the grand scheme of things. I guess they can't function without having SOMETHING to disagree about.
