The constant generalising about Stevie fans does get irritating. And I realise it's not going to change.

I know... it's crazy that anyone would think a Stevie fan wouldn't like the Buck/Vie album out of some sense of, what, loyalty? It was going to be a FM album, Stevie declined to participate, so it became a 'duets' album (without any duets). I did miss Stevie's presence on it, just like I missed Christine's presence on Say You Will, but I still liked it. In fact, I liked Buck/Vie more than Say You Will.

Some Lindsey superfans want it both ways- Stevie refused to participate, yet at the same time she's jealous they made the album without her. It's a contradiction. Stevie had the choice to participate and she declined. If she were jealous that Christine and Lindsey were working together, she would have joined them. And what was there to be jealous of? Christine gave him 5 songs, Lindsey did his usual production work on them, and that was it. It wasn't like they were in the studio working late hours, curled up together in a blanket writing lyrics together LOL!

Instead of looking for MORE excuses to hate Stevie, why not just focus on the ones we know are true, instead of making up superfluous reasons LOL?

Probably more live than the Buck/Vie shows, since they have enough money to hire real live musicians and back up singers.

I suppose it's a good thing then I don't attend concerts any more. That is no longer playing music. Imagine if a symphony orchestra pre-recorded its string parts, or if an opera singer lip synced!

If Fleetwood Mac are too old to play their parts then they should call it a day.

Come to think of it, why not state the obvious? Why shouldn't Mick simply say Stevie and Lindsey can't work together any more? Isn't that obvious to all of us, and even the casual fan? It would be more truthful and less infuriating than the lies they are peddling now.

Because they’re still counting on all those super loyal Stevie’s fans who think she has nothing to do with it, even though her good friend Mike Campbell was hired to replace Lindsey 6 days after Musicares. But I’m sure that’s just a coincidence

It's not even an age thing. Somewhere along the line, someone decided that concerts need to sound like the records. Like, EXACTLY like the records.

I do sound for a LOT of newer country acts, and 95% of them play with tracks. Hear that girl's voice on the chorus? Oh wait, there's no girl in the band!! Where's it coming from? Oh, the karaoke machine....

Mirage is the last time that FM was an actual band.

Which is why I don't believe in coincidence

This was preplanned way in advance. She was just waiting for the right opportunity to pounce.

I think this tour, and someone will leave. Neil would be my first bet.

Isn’t he supposed to release an album with his son? So, yeah, he’s using FM to somehow promote his new work

Yep, it started with The Classics, and I found it odd at that time, but everybody around me dismissed my paranoia

I wonder why? Is it possible she's behaving that way, as he's been a complete and utter arsehole towards her? It is a possibility, just as much as the possibility that she was scheming to remove him from FM.
We have no idea what exchanges took place before he got fired.

Some of us are completely fed-up with the BN tension and looking forward to a new band dynamic, whether it lasts or not.

Stevie has always been jealous of the musical partnership Lindsey and Christine share, even since World Turning. This has anything to do with curling up together in a blanket. He has a wife and kids at home. Seriously.
