I will never believe that she is so unprofessional that she canceled that many shows because Kristen Buckingham pissed her off, upset her, etc. But, to each their own.

Not to hijack a thread, but I really am totally clueless when it comes to things like this (I just discovered this board a little bit ago). Could someone maybe explain this or put it into a new thread? I've always wondered what the relationship is like between Stevie and Lindsey's wife.

You went straight to her.

The canceled because of poor ticket sales.

My point was that there are better and more important ways for me to spend my money than on a concert that I'm not jonesing to see, and I find it ridiculous that people are called out for being less of a fan just because they're sitting out on a tour. It's ludicrous.

I know - I was just envisioning the choice I noted above

I also agree about this tour. I mean if she comes here I will see her as I did when she was here with Henley, though that ticket was free for me THANK GOODNESS!!!!!!!!! I would consider going to another city to see her, but I would have to get a GREAT deal on a hotel room, airfare, etc. And even then, it would have to be somewhere I thought was cool and other Ledgies would be. I do think though that it would be cool to see Rock and Roll and this tour is fierce from what I saw - but it ain't worth a grand to me.

Don't. You don't want to.

I swear.

"I didn't go to a show, I don't want to go to a show, but I'm still gonna raise hell!"

That and the whole "I'm so-and-so's #1 fan!" makes me wanna vomit.

But I really am Stevie's #1 fan. Just kidding, of course.

It's everyone's personal decision whether to go or not. How much a "fan" you are vs. someone else is irrelevant to me. That being said though, the fewer people (true fans) that go will probably make her stop touring eventually, and that bums me out. I don't think I'm a bigger fan than anyone else. I just love to see Stevie live, and would be willing to go see her even if she never changed her setlist. I guess if I felt crappy about her setlist, I would still go, but go for cheaper seats. That way, I'd feel like I was supporting her without spending a fortune.

I thought that is what I thought you were referring to

I agree that one of those shows could have been canceled as a result of that, but I do think she was genuinely sick. Thus, thhe management took advantage of that to cancel the, I think, Pitts. show.

again for the presumption

They canceled those shows because of poor ticket sales, that's what I always thought, just like you.

I know. Thus the laughie and the kiss. Hey, I buy clothes before movies, same thing. Just teasing. teasing. *although I buy nothing rather than see Stevie*
