It doesn't matter if the song purports to be an anthem for progressive social change. The very way in which she portrays herself and others in that song says everything.)

By making this analogy, Lindsey knows the only way back in to Fleetwood Mac is to climb down into the crevasse, take the plunge into potentially self-annihilating territory, to blow everything up and hope doing so allows him space to climb out and pick up the pieces. I think he has a BETTER chance of returning to the fold BECAUSE of the incendiary comments and his rattling Nicks and Azoff. I could be wrong. We'll see.

Meanwhile, John is on his boat or in his home and is sleeping like a baby regardless of how any of this turns out.

Can I say that you are a genius? This is so well written and thought out. You're a Ledgend.

You should see her post today for 9/11. She says she became a New Yorker that day... as she sat in the Waldorf. My partner and I were taking care of and feeding persons who couldn't get home to the Boroughs that day in our apartment.

A genius! A legend! I’m flattered and amused. I can be as big an idiot as the next person. But thank you.

Ironically, I was supposed to see Stevie Nicks on 9/12 in Rochester, but she was stuck in NYC and then canceled the tour later that week. I imagine being in NYC when this all went down had to be life-changing. But a New Yorker she is not. lol

And btw: thank YOU for the work you did after that tragedy.

It's true Tony, your beautiful writing inspires me. I couldn't imagine the ledge without you. If you weren't here, I'd fire myself from Michele.

Jbrowns, you're not the boss of this band.

The interviewer should've sent a followup to the "fired myself" statement... are you self-employed?

Interesting fact: we were born on the same day of the same year.

It was my honor to help! I just brought that up to share that I believe one doesn't become a New Yorker because they couldn't get to LaGuardia or JFK due to a lockdown on the island of Manhattan.

Out of state people who helped others who were stranded or in peril that day became New Yorkers, and those who passed that day, were wounded that day, or suffer health issues from that day became New Yorkers

I was a New Yorker because I lived there.

Thinking of that day makes my heart hurt. But New York stands proud today.
