I don't believe it's his health. I'd bet a few bucks that something happened between them. They either pissed him off, or offered him some money to shut up, and stop sharing stories and pics.

Stacy still posts occasionally, and if it was his health, I think she'd be telling us that. Add in that he DELETED his FB, after being so generous sharing with us, and I refuse to believe that "something" didn't happen...

Q: Do you know why Richard Dashut took his blog down?
A: Richard is a very sensitive guy. I think that when the Life Magazine FM issue came out recently and almost completely left him and all his valuable contributions to the bands albums for nearly 10 years, he just threw in the towel, not realizing that the author of the article was the one to blame, not anyone else.

enjoying reading Ken's answers.

have to say i'm [pleasantly] surprised they are much more measured and less snarky than his recent interviews (in the last few years i guess) and other social media comments and engagements with fans have been.


i was surprised at this anon question though, and the lack of correction from the blog mod:

Anonymous asked:
The Ledge thanks you for participating in our Q&A. If you could pick a favorite song from all three songwriters in Fleetwood Mac, what would they be?

And this!!!



Ledge moderator "Joe Seerg" seems to be behind this even though Michelle has stated in one of the other recent Q&A threads that the Ledge in no way shape or form has had involvement with the Q&A's...
If this is Q&A is legit let's have Ken post a link/ answers for fans to the Q&A on his "Verified" twitter account...
Seems to me that someone is simply using "The Ledge" to drive traffic to their website...

Guys I have nothing to do with that. Someone is writing the questions and he is answering. Also I've never claimed at all to be the ledge moderator. The guy was talking about tumblr.

And Wise One what is this?

(not sure how to embed facebook)

So I believe you owe me an apology.

"Anonymous" is probably the tumblr moderator. I would lay odds. So, I find that particularly troubling.

Looks like this not Ken's Tumblr but rather one created and run by "Joe Seerg" AKA? with JS relaying Ken's answers...

Wouldn't the solution to the unwarranted ledge reference be to ask whoever is putting the questions on tumblr to simply remove "the ledge" from any of the questions?

I think Michele has already done that. Isn't Joe Seerg WelcomeChris? I think he basically ignored her.

The thing is, it's great to have Ken, Billy and anyone else answer questions on Tumblr. In fact, Gary Hodges' answers were welcome as well. If they're willing to talk to fans on Facebook or through an Q & A interface that's great and fans want the information, especially since they're giving us new insights. But "Welcome Chris" was not being straightforward.

Since something happened that might have offended Bekka (who is someone who has NOT done a Q & A with the Ledge and would be a great get), I sure wouldn't want her to think it was me or anyone else who runs the site who texted her and said whatever it was she didn't like.

I mean, give me the chance to offend Bekka on my own, because I'm very capable of putting my foot in my own mouth. I don't need Joe putting his feet in it and offending people under the auspices of The Ledge. Michele

With all the members here trying to sink another member I read this and all I can think is, "you are an amazing woman, Michele."

I'm not trying to stir the pot anymore than it has been because I prefer to stay OUT of the drama, but I'm confused. Was Welcomechris banned for the actions of someone else, like his post here suggests?
