I screwed a box to my mower, between my feet, in which I place a 9mm while mowing. I tell every new neighbor, "if you hear me scream like a little girl, OR hear me empty my handgun(or both), just know that I saw a snake, and it's most likely dead now".

Agree, this is the most sensible account of what may have happened.

"That was Fleetwood Mac! Or that was a new formation of people that is currently calling themselves Fleetwood Mac! *laughter*" "Didn't Lindsey Buckingham have a really big hand in basically creating the Fleetwood Mac sound? Didn't he produce basically all their songs? And he just finished touring with Christine McVie? And they're just like 'well bye'". "It's interesting how Fleetwood believes in that very old-fashioned notion that the 'band must go on', no matter what you do to it, no matter what it ends up looking like, the band just has to go on *more laughter*". It was GOLD. |

It’s a TMZ gotcha interview. What was Mick going to say?
Sure, he’s going to say “Yeah, we just brought on guys like Neil and Mike, but our beloved, recently fired Lindsey is always free to come back.” People are just looking for reasons to be angry. About a rock band.

I'm here to talk about a rock band because that's the topic of this forum. They day it changes to nuclear physics I'll probably leave.

They probably didn't expect this kind of questions. They probably thought Lindsey was just "a guy who doesn't sell albums", like Stevie said. They probably didn't expect this level of support for him and backlash for them.

Your financial risk comment about Lindsey’s tantrum makes so much sense, it could also have helped sway John and Christine if they were on the fence or help Christine accept it even if she didn’t love the idea (if it is true she was away and didn’t find out later).

Finn and Campbell are in a completely different league than Billy and Rick, though. Campbell is a Hall of Fame legend in his own right and is in a place where he can’t but help play some of his most inspired guitar playing and Finn is an OBE. Quote:

Again, not my first choice of how to freshen up the setlist, but I knew that was off the table last year.

Jeremy Spencer once said that Peter told him he named the band Fleetwood Mac because he knew there would be a day when they weren’t going to be in the band anymore, but Mick and John would continue on. I don’t know how true that was, but if it was, the band was intentionally created to be bigger than any one member, which sounds like something Peter would do. The biggest issue I have with what Fleetwood Mac did is handing over all of the power to money in general and Stevie specifically. Given Jeremy’s story, what they went through in 1974, the conditions they put on Christine, and the conditions they put on Lindsey, it’s almost completely out of character and history how they’ve let Stevie call the shots. But, it’s also completely in character for Mick to follow the money.

Yeah, but without Lindsey, it would've been BTM, part II.
Lindsey is the guiding force that FM needs.
