Mike Campbell didn't know Lindsey was fired

The thought occurred to me, too, last year. But then I figured that nobody in Fleetwood Mac has the acting chops to be able to maintain this “story” for nearly two years. I go back to Lindsey’s video with the interviewer last year—his pained, confused look and the slight lump in his throat when he was positing possible motives on Stevie’s and Mick’s part weren’t acting. Which leads to the unlikely scenario that Lindsey was never clued in to this stunt.
