I'm sick of her complaining about the SYW tour- whether it be the old "boys club" excuse, or how being in Fleetwood Mac is like being in the army (a heartless, reprehensible comparison in the time of war... comparing a pampered rockstar life to a term of combat service for your country) or now the "it was too loooooong! I was sooooo unhappy!". She took home an average of about $150K for each and every one of those 135 shows. I don't know, Stevie, what would you rather have? $6M and be home after 2 1/2 months with no complaints, or $20M+ over a period of less than a year and a half (with numerous extended breaks) and the "right" to complain and bitch about unhappy it all was?
In three years, Stevie's going to say "I thought it was just the 40 dates for the Hits tour, but then we recorded the album, did another 150 concerts around the world, and Lindsey got on my nerves the entire time! Poor meeeeeeee! I had no idea that would happen! Time I could have written my autobiography and released my Rhiannon movie, but I had to serve in the army instead!"
Boo f'ing hoo, Stevie.

Stevie has the right to complain about anything she wants to at this point in her life because she's earned it as far as i'm concerned. Whether people like it or not, Fleetwood Mac is all about Stevie, and that's the way it is...especially with Christine out of the picture.
