Lindsey interview;Stevie and Azoff finally speak

Stevie Nicks hasn't been controlling, egomaniacal, and bitter?

Who wants to roll the tape for this one? We've got plenty of material to draw from.

I would say you probably have about a 10th as much video and interviews as they are are of Lindsey Buckingham pontificating to everyone in the universe. Looking down on others. Using words that he thinks us regular people don’t even know the meaning to. The man is so self-absorbed and controlling. It is his way or the highway and she kicked into the highway. Actually she didn’t kick into the highway. She told the band to make a choice. I guess that choice was made by Mick Fleetwood but it is what it is. she is the draw whether you like it or not. People love her and her music. Lindsey Buckingham can go back to playing his 300 person concerts. I’m not minimizing his contribution to the band in the sound but the man needs a personality makeover.

Oh...I get it. You're triggered by people who are educated and don't necessarily sound like an idiot. Fair enough, that's all you had to say. Everything else makes sense now. Thanks for clearing that up.

I just posted a very long not very nice response but on second thought none of you are worth it. You’re so full of hate. You make me sick.

You disappear for months at a time, then pop in to rant and rave, then disappear again.

See you in a few months!

As I understand it, Lindsey has about 12 fans -- and that's on a good day. Stevie, is loved by millions and is an American icon. Biden would send the forces to rescue her if she was ever kidnapped, just like on that South Park episode. She's just wonderful. Talented, beautiful, patient and long-suffering.

So, because the Stevie fans so far outnumber Lindsey fans, why do Stevie fans care what they say? How can the opinion of 12 bitter Lindsey fans who have been jealous of Stevie since the days of Fritz, ever penetrate the halcyon joy of a Stevie fan's world? I don't understand that.

Also, while I know the Ledge was a place where Stevie fans once had so much fun. They would come here and share so much, after every concert, before every album release. It was so exciting. And now it's gone. But since the love for Stevie has never died, why can't her fans find a new place to be together and share her without the bitter Lindsey fans jumping in? Why haven't they moved their heaven to a new location?

I understand what JohnL means when he says that this place is ruined, but why does that matter, when there are so many other places to revel in being a Stevie fan? It's like the world is his oyster.

Stevie hasn't offered anything in years to be excited about. It's been seven years since she released an album. Show Them the Way was not an exciting song. It was empty. Her guesting on Vanessa Carlton's The One was more exciting. The "24 Karat Gold" Tour really paled in comparison to Enchanted Tour as far as an adventurous setlist.

The 2018-2019 FM Tour did not feature Stevie heavily, which sucked as a Stevie fan. Dreams, Rhiannon, GDW, Gypsy, and Landslide were naptimes.
Had she done Sisters of the Moon, Crystal, I Don't Want to Know, Paper Doll, Sweet Girl, Illume, Angel, and even Stand Back. There would've been high energy in the Stevie and Rumours forums.

She takes her fans for granted, but she's become boring. Who shows up at a Harry Styles album show and sings a ballad from almost 50 years ago? Be creative, don't be a dinosaur!

What if you love both of them equally? *gasp*... Ok, well maybe not equally. Depends on what day of the week you catch me I guess as to who I favour slightly more than the other. Oh, darn it all I don't know where I belong anymore...
