I can't help but wonder if Kristen only allows Lindsey to have 3 hangers in the closet. It's a little like seeing Gilligan or the Skipper everytime we see a picture of him.

Or the Professor. Oh me oh my, that's funny!

Right side of my pallet, fleetwood mac
Left side of my pallet, solowork

And that, my dear people, sums up pretty much all of my career

Y'know, you're right. He did look like it and, when he got off stage at the end, he looked like he really was about to cry.

I hope Kristen was somewhere waiting to give him a hug because he looked like he needed it. Even Ken and the others looked a little choked up.
