When this article came out Go Insane had already been released. I am sure he was disappointed with the sales and no big hits while Stevie was playing arenas. Was he still jealous of Stevie's solo career where she was phoning it in on the Wild Heart tour. I totally see Lindsey going to Chris's concerts especially since he worked on her solo album. But I can't believe he went to a Stevie solo concert coming from someone that would not even listen to Bella Donna but who knows. Maybe he saw her HBO show.
It all brings back memories of the mid 80s when Mac fans were biting their nails wondering if the band would reunite again. These swipes at fellow band members did not help. Stevie was calling herself the "baby sister" and how the Mac never used her full potential. Chris saying her and Stevie are not friends and that she lives in a fantasy world. Lindsey saying Chris and Stevie solo shows are borderline lounge acts. Stevie saying in 1985 that it "depends on how nice everyone is" if she would record with the Mac again. It all brings back the memories of the mid 80s.

You really think SN was "phoning it in" on the WH tour?
Stars go see other stars' shows all the time. Personally, I find it surprising, though not unbelievable that LB would've gotten a ticket to see see her in '83 at one of the many shows she played in LA that year.
