I love her to death. I've been a fan of hers since I was a child. If she does something I disagree with, I reserve the right to say so. That's part of what makes living in places where freedom of expression is allowed so great.

Ah, you're just a troublemaker. And sounding like either a sycophant or a troll. Geez, I've been around the Ledge since before the sign up date you see. Before the new Ledge board and this has gone on for years and years. Take a chill pill. No on needs to prove to you that they love Stevie.

gaga4rhiannon · #19 08-05-2010, 01:17 AM

yeah, you're right....no one needs to prove a thing to me.... just expressing an opinion..... OH CRAP....the "wrong" opinions aren't accepted here".....oops....I'm sorry....I'll be more "in the trend"
like the rest of the ledgies.....please......spare me....and honestly....I'm not a trouble maker....I just expressed an opinion....apparently not one that anyone likes....and I'm totally okay with that. I stood my ground....said what I needed to say. If I must be banned.....so be it.....

peace and love to all....and go hug a tree....honestly....it just makes ya feel squiggly inside.....

what's funny to me is that so many people who complain about "negativity" are not really anti-negativity. they are just anti-negativity in certain situations.

the people i see criticizing stevie are not calling any other posters names for liking stevie or saying "f*ck you guys" for liking her. but you see that sort of thing coming from people who allegedly hate negativity. what's up with that?

Do your research... Zepplin was always criticized for having poor concert peformances, especially by their fans. I'm not as acquainted with the other acts you listed, but I know Zepplin always had a real problem translating their fiery album performances to stage.

For what it's worth, the Ledge has always been a 'call it like you see it' kind of message board. Whereas other Stevie/Mac message boards will burn you at the stake for critiquing Stevie/Fleetwood Mac, we all treasure a good debate around here. We discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly. Because let's face it, not everything these people do or say drips with faerie dust. I actually think we're better fans around here because of it: we hold Stevie and Fleetwood Mac to a high standard, and deservedly so. They've all given us some fantastic music and concert performances over the decades. With so many iconic songs, we all get a bit peeved when Stevie does cover songs, for instance. We're fans, if ANYONE has the right to critique this band and it's solo artists, it's us. We're truly informed, know the history inside and out, and know what these people are capable of, and when they're not living up to their potential.

If this kind of environment doesn't suit you, there are more message boards than not in the Fleetwood Mac/Stevie community that are solely "positive only." God knows, if this place raises your blood pressure, we'd hate for you to give yourself a stroke!

I personally suggest you stick around. Add in your positive two cents, but leave your comments about board members being "buttheads" at the door. We may critique the band around here, have differing opinions, but we respect one another first and foremost... I suggest you do the same.

Since when are people talking about bad shows? Stevie has had her share of bad shows. Coked out and drunk and flubbing every other line. Yet us ledgies usually cream our pants over those shows. There is a difference between saying OMG STEVIE SUCKS AT SINGING and "I wish she would have done SOTM instead of Rock and Roll". We all really do love Stevie or we wouldn't be spending our time on this board just waiting to hear what the next song in her setlist is or seeing what Dave Stewarts new tweet is. That being said, we voice our opinion, and if we feel Stevie should change something up, we have the right to talk about it. This is a discussion board, what is the point if we are all just going to say OMG I <3 STEVIE!? We need different points of view and disagreement and there is nothing wrong with pointing out where Stevie is failing to utilize her full self. That being said, I know Stevie Nicks doesn't owe us a goddamn thing. And if I went to see her in concert, I'd be in awe the whole time no matter what she sang. And I'd sure as hell never tell her she didn't give me what I wanted. Stevie Nicks saved my life and she is one of the most utterly amazing people to ever grace this earth. However we aren't hating on her or insulting her, we are simply having a conversation amongst other Stevie lovers. Sometimes negativity and pessimism does creep up, but honestly, there are a lot of positive and amazing things posted on here. This is my go to site for all Stevie related news, and I get more and more excited and fall more in love with Stevie almost every day. However, if you fail to see the positive posts and contributions and choose to only see negativity, then why waste your time? If this site isn't benefiting you at all, then leave.
