Funnier still is that Peter Green came out of retirement in 1996, released eight albums from 1996 through 2003 with the Splinter Group, and retired again, and yet he's still considered to be the recluse.

LOL!! He doesn't bitch about music, he actually spends his time making it.

I can't believe he played at Peabody's!!! It is indeed a tiny little club, and I have played there a few times myself. If I had been just a bit older I would've been there.

....Damn It.

He was amazing that night... I was like 10 feet away from him...

Stevie Nicks says that ongoing problems with bandmate and one-time boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham may signal the end for her in Fleetwood Mac.

Nicks, who'll be hitting the road next week for a string of spring dates, told Q magazine that the band's tentative tour for next year is up in their air due to personality conflicts, revealing, "Lindsey knows that I did not have a great time during (2003's) Say You Will (album and tour)... He was not being very nice or friendly to me and at my old age I'm like 'Please! I can't do it.'I have a great, great, (solo) band... The only reason for me to do it is for my heart."

She went on to say, "I've always loved being in Fleetwood Mac and I'm never going to be the one to squash it... So if Lindsey Buckingham wants to be the Lindsey Buckingham that he was a long time ago -- and be happy with me and enjoy what I do, and enjoy my celebrity and just appreciate the marvelous gift of being in this elite band -- then I will do it again. I will also walk away so fast that the palm tree tops will fall on his head."

or are there others who are sick of Stevie's CONSTANT whining over LB? Hey lady, get over it, get over the man and GET the $#&%^# on with your life...Sheesh!!! Frikkin' broken record!

Oh how they both love, love, love to play that broken record! Why anyone over the age of 12 still listens is beyond me.

They must believe all fans are as stupid as the ones who hang out 24/7 on the internet.

As long as they keep it spinning in every possible direction nobody will ever find out! Yeah! That's the ticket!

Ok... We have bashed Stevie for a bit, so let one of us be devil's advocate. (NOT TO STEP ON ANYONE'S TOES OR GET INTO A HEATED INTERNET BASH SESSION- That is NOT my intention...)

Stevie is a HUGE part of FM's success. On a lesser scale, COMMERCIALLY, Lindsey is also. Stevie brings them in.

I am not sure that she says these things to be dramatic. I think she says these things because it is hard for her in that band. She is the only one with a LARGE solo career and I think it makes her paranoid. I am sure that it makes the others a little hostile.

Lindsey seems tough to deal with. Stevie is tough to deal with. You know who I feel sorry for? John. Bless his heart he has to hear all that constantly.

I have been where Stevie is. Sometimes you gotta say, "I WILL LEAVE." Sometimes you gotta through that card. She has several times, but it wrangles the fellas attention.

AS for the shows being more intense without Stevie? I do NOT share that opinion. I find that the reason we love this band is because of EACH member. It is hard enoguh without Christine. I WOULD NOT FOLLOW THIS BAND WITHOUT STEVIE. I would not follow the band without Mick. To me, each member, for good or bad, brings magic and atmosphere. So we should view her comments in a different way: the result of 30+ years of insanity.

LONG MAY OUR BAND ROCK! - TOGETHER!!!

There's a reason he goes MIA whenever the Mac is on hiatus...

Funny. Digging up a hotbed of a post that no one has brought up in nearly 8 months doesn't sound like you're ready to sit in a circle holding hands and singing Kumbaya to me.

SandyMac · #**205** 12-15-2008, 10:18 PM

My heart skipped a beat when I first read this subject line and realized it is from earlier this year. Whew, I was like OMG, this can't be happening.
I so want them to put their differences aside and just have fun this tour.

See, I knew someone would get upset. Calm down. There is no need to be like that. I just read the thread and posted my opinion. Good thing that my opinion doesn't rely on your approval, or timeline.

I am completely calm. You can state your opinion anywhere. You chose to pick an incendiary thread and continue it 8 months after it was dead in the water. So, spare us the false, wide-eyed disclaimers. Or not.
Free country and all that.

This type of attitude showcases a complete disregard to the notice given by Johnny Stew. I have respect for everyone and I wish that you would do the same. I have nothing more to say.

...and so Garbo does speak!
