We have talked about this since forever. Lindsey's heart attack was triggered by his firing and the way those traitors treated him. He had a health family history but he had been doing ok for more than 60 years, so that was not a coincidence.
There will always be those fans who want to believe the band and specifically $tevie did nothing wrong, so they can go to bed at night thinking their Queen is still the most warm and considerate of all. Right….

Like Homer said, he won at life, and no matter how many times she tries to hurt him, she can't change that.

I'm not one of those people. I know she orchestrated the whole thing and I will always hope she changes her mind, apologizes and asks him to come back. But I'm also a realist and I'm a person who accepts things for the way they are. I will always love Stevie and her music. I have been a FM fan since the mid 1970's. I don't always like the decisions they make but I see zero point in complaining about LB getting fired this far into the present.

Bulls**t.

My step-dad had a heart attack long before he ever met my mother. About 3.5 years into their marriage, his only son was killed in a car accident. He was devastated but didn’t have a heart attack. I can’t imagine getting fired from a rock band was anywhere near as traumatic. So forgive me for still being highly skeptical.

Lindsey is genetically predisposed to heart disease and, go figure, ended up having a heart attack. If it had anything to do with getting fired, he should sue...HIS THERAPIST. Life is full of trauma and disappointment. If he is too ill equipped to handle getting fired from a band that’s been more inactive than not over the past 22 years, then his therapist has done a lousy job. Lindsey is still insanely wealthy, still has a beautiful family, is still able to make music, and was still able to tour. Forgive me for feeling less than sorry for him.
