A Little Lindsey Poll

Obviously the intent of this message board is to discuss Lindsey and his work. I know people come here for different reasons. Some just want information, some like to hang out and BS with their friends, but we are all here for our love of all things FM related. I would hate to see anyone not post here in Lindseyland because they were offended by something someone posted in jest. Nor would I want to see anyone leave because this board is "uptight". So maybe a little self-censorship is in order and a realization that not everyone shares the same sense of humor.

Tango, thanks for posting your thoughts. I hope when (and unfortunately I feel I have to add IF) Lindsey's Soundstage airs we'll have fun dissecting every nuance of the performance!

I probably shouldn't have called the Lindsey Ledge uptight. My comment wasn't really aimed at Tango or Nancy, I was thinking of other things that have happened to me here and my experience as a whole. There's just a different vibe here, which is OK... not enough to keep me from lurking or occasionally posting.


I still think Mr. Buckingham is a bit uptight.

Was that sexual humor? your call for exlax and mineral oil to speed the process (so to speak)......I thought that was bathroom humor

I guess since he took out 9 of the songs he had accumulated for GOS to use for SYW, and he's been writing new material he felt he wanted it to sound fresh. I'd rather he do that then just release what we already have.

You know, there IS (sadly) a great reason to have that rule.

Hey, look, guys! A poll about Lindsey! YAY! YAY! YAY!

1- Have you already ordered the Lindsey Soundstage DVD?
http://www.cduniverse.com/productin...frm=lk_bizrate2

If not, why not?

I haven't, mainly because I've been out of the loop and actually had no idea they were releasing it AS a dvd.

2- Did you get to attend the recording of the show?
If your answer is YES, name ONE of your personal highlights of being there LIVE. (No cheating, just one!)

YES! I was there. I'm going with everyone else and saying "Frozen Love." I had yelled it along with someone else at the exact same time. It was ten seconds of fantastic. Although I did love hearing "Someone's Gotta Change Your Mind" and "Red Rover" live for the first time. Wait, that was cheating.

3- If YOU were in charge, would you have suggested that Lindsey NOT have a guest on the show? What would you have said to him?

Yes. I'm over the guest star thing. I mean, it was nice, but boring. I wanted to see Lindsey, and if Stevie was going to be there, I wanted something truly fantastic or off the wall. Not same old same old.

4- What THREE songs would you have added onto the show if you had "all power."

I would've liked to hear I'll Tell You Now, Walk a Thin Line, and Countdown.

5- Do you think if this thing sells well Lindsey might get a little braver about doing a. a solo tour; b. a solo album; c. another solo DVD show.

It's not going to sell well, so it's a moot point. I think this'll probably be the only DVD we'll ever get out of him, but a solo tour and solo album may be in the cards... I think stuff just happens to keep him from doing that stuff. Like, in 1996, he and Mick were actually booking shows across the country (Park West in Chicago) to do a solo tour together for the album he was working on, and they scrapped it to work on the Dance.

I thought Tango and Nancy were objecting to the sexual humor and it being off topic and distracting. So, I addressed that.

But, to your point, my comment was on point in this thread and it was a humorous way of saying LB is metaphorically constipated with his work. In other words, it is difficult for him to release the final product and was a response to the prior comments about LB having no sense of urgency about releasing his work.

Where was the sexual humor? I was having trouble finding sexual humor in exlax

But, yes, Exlax has no sexual humor

I agree. I'm not going to get my hopes up too high, though. I'll believe we're getting a new CD when I am actually holding it in my hands.

Well, they're his lyrics. I honestly wondered if he would sing them on PBS if he played Wrong. He also wrote a song called Come so I don't understand why anyone's hackles would get raised about sexual innuendo and humor in relation to Mr. Buckingham's songs. As I said, they're his lyrics.

I agree Plus, Tusk was about their di*ks So, they are just inherently dirty minded men - what else is new

Personally, I find nothing offensive about any post in this thread. But others did I guess.

And to think, Stevie threatened to quit the band over the title Tusk.
Now that you mention it, I think Lindsey is obsessed with his little demon.

For her, that, I think, was the tip of the iceberg, the proverbial straw, etc.

Did LB do Tusk for the SS thingee. I forgot.

I don't know but it also just occured to me that this goes all the way back to Rumours with that dirty Second Hand News song.

Yep - tall grass - doing stuff LB is a nasty, dirty minded, potty mouthed boy who needs a spanking. Any volunteers
