"Let’s see, and Sheryl [Louis], who when Howard passed away, then took on the mantle of being my manager — which is no easy thing, because I don’t agree with anything anybody says — especially when it’s a girl! Thank you Sheryl for giving it your all. Anyway, you all have been a fantastic, fantastic audience … Thank you!"
The audience laughed when she said "especially, when it's a girl." She was giddy, and having fun. Rolling Stone's headline for the article is "Read Stevie Nicks’ Riotous Rock Hall Induction Speech." Describing it, "
"Eliciting laughs and ample cheers from the crowd."
I think the Buckeroos are looking too far into it.

I don't get it.

AGAIN for the obviously slow chiffonheads on this board. I can speak for me (and probably many others ) when I say I was an equal fan of BOTH of them. I LOVED her. So AGAIN, I know it's hard for you people to realize that it's HER fault that many of us who adored her now see the real horrible, awful, vain, selfish biotch she has become.

Totally agree. Some of them were even trying to say tha Lindsey abused Stevie to get her sympathy because they know she screwed up. She is the reason why there wasn’t one last album and why he is out of the band. She is a user.

YES this---I equally loved them both. First time I haven't seen FM in NYC since TheDance.

It boggles my mind. I have said sooo many times that she was the one I loved the most for decades. I would always see FM and then always see her solo tours. I adored her and was a complete Stevie fan.

For some reason, I keep being told that I'm not suppose to dislike her now. Well, I like to think that it's because I have morals, and don't think treating other people, the way Stevie does, is cool. It's just wrong. She is not who I'd want my kids to look up to, so there is no way in hell I'm going to look up to her. Her behaviour is selfish, cruel, stupid and uncaring. That speech made me cringe.

So for the bullies who think we're suppose to get over it, and leave poor Stevie alone......nope, not gonna happen. Esp on a FM chat site. Sheesh.

Not liking Stevie is one thing. Viciously trashing everything about her virtually daily for over a year is another, it indicates something deeper than just some feelings about a band member and her actions. The idea that some of the haters here used to love her is even scarier - you are THAT emotional about Stevie Nicks??

Even with events happening with real people in my real life, I cannot work up that much hate.

I am glad she made the RRHOF and that FM is a going concern.

LOL and this place wouldn't go apesh*t if it were Stevie that got kicked out of the band by a Lindsey ultimatum? Nope, everyone would be done talking about it a year later. Sure. Please, this place would be a leather and lace brush fire.




Count me in as another MAJOR Stevie fan who has left the building.

P.S. - That wasn't even an acceptance speech. She rambled like a complete idiot. Even by Stevie standards....

AMEN. The intensity of baseless rage here is truly mind-blowing. None of us (or least most of us) have never met these people, much less know the actual ins and outs of their business and their relationships. If Stevie were kicked out, I'd be upset, but you know, that's life. In any event, this is a thread about the RRHOF induction. The fact that more than half of the related posts are completely off topic speaks volumes about the small but vocal minority here.

But why should the latest Fleetwood Mac drama take away from her musical output and her back catalogue?

Sure, what she's done is a massive d!ck move, but if you're that emotionally connected to Stevie as a person to not be able to differentiate between a sh!tty thing that she's done and how great her music is and continue to enjoy songs and albums that you've done for years, then you've got bigger problems than anybody in Fleetwood Mac.

And like I said, there's always been drama and scandal associated with Fleetwood Mac, even before anybody had ever heard of Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham - this is nothing new and just the latest in a history of nonsense.

It goes something like this:

People who are not d!cks, tend to also not be fans of people who treat people like d!cks

It's not about being emotionally connected, it's recognizing when somebody is not being a good person and choosing to not support that anymore.

I too think what she has done is just the absolute pits, morally a load of Sh**e.
But nothing any one could do will ever take away my love for her music, especially the stuff with FMac.
I don’t despise her, I don’t know her.
What she did was wrong, but I still love her old stuff.
I just love FMac.
And as you say drama and scandal is par for the course.

Then don't support it. That should be the end of it. Rather than month after month of wild-eyed foam-flecked slobbering incoherent foot stomping rage. See the difference we are pointing out?

Harry is . . . insubstantial. Although he gave it an earnest try and he obviously adores Stevie. But she goes back to the Hendrix and Jefferson Airplane years. She really merited a heavier hitter. So did Fleetwood Mac in 1998, for that matter. Sheryl Crow grew in stature later, but at that point she was fairly lightweight (and young).

You can tell how inapposite Harry was for Stevie's induction by reading his fans' tweets about the event. They are gushing and drooling all over him and his blue suit and his long hair, and many of them are like "Stevie who?"
