For For Friday - We're On A Mission From God


This iconic rock band, known for rumors and personal entanglements has topped themselves! The two Americans in this band, who joined as a couple with big dreams, have a tumultuous relationship.  Ironically, the male vocalist and guitarist was the only one the band wanted but he insisted he and his GF were a package deal when they joined the band 43 years ago.  His ethereal former girlfriend, who pursued a solo career in addition to her commitment to the band, was always obsessed with the male leader of another iconic band, recording with him and often taking the stage during his concerts. Though very friendly, the married Southern band leader never gave into her aggressive pressures to become a couple.

Heartbreakingly, the leader of this Southern Rock band died last fall.  This death seemed to bring about much angry entitlement in the singer.  She has been consumed with booting her ex from their band and replacing him with the lead guitarist from her dead friend’s band with whom she has written songs in the past.  She has a history of insisting on odd and eventually disastrous partnerships after someone close to her dies.  She was already angry with her ex  because, after years of refusing to create new music with the band,  the male singer and other female singer made an album together in 2017 naming it similar to the album she had made with her ex some 45 years ago.  The other two group members performed on the album too.  They did a brief tour which infuriated the singer.

Our singer  and her personal assistant who is known to have adversarial relationship with her ex, set about to gaslight him.  This resulted in a big fight in January during a very large award type show.  A week her ex was ousted in a landslide move and replaced with her dead friend’s mate.  Because the new band member is not known for his vocals, they crowded in another male singer.  The band set about to announce their new tour and tell the public her ex didn’t want to tour on their time table, thinking it would work because he declined to tour once during the late 80’s. The other female singer ( who has been with the band since 1970) was informed after the fact which she started on a TV interview related to the band’s lineup change.  This same band member threatened to quit soon afterwards if the band “didn’t make things right.”  She was begged to stay by the band’s founder and did so but is not happy with the situation.

The band didn’t count on were the leaks from their inner circle and their now ex-band member’s feisty young wife being very vocal about the real reason behind her husband’s departure.  They did not expect the fan backlash.   Especially from HER fans. 

The now six member band is panicking because many aren’t buying the “he did not want to tour” line.  They do not want any backlash against their rock and roll ballerina because she is the most popular and known for her good witch persona.  They don’t want the public to know the real truth about this twirling singer because she is a main draw. 

Making matters worse, the “new band” with the same name, just appeared on a daytime talk show with a lackluster performance and lots of criticism of no energy or chemistry in performing two of the songs from their classic 5 member line up.  Ticket sales to their tour are low and they are scrambling. I think they are in trouble!

  16. Yeah, obviously not a blind. Stevie is my idol, however we all know this was her doing. And their performance on Ellen wasn't lackluster, it was literally horrendous. As an absolute die hard FM and Stevie fan I will not spend a dime to see the tour. I would cry sad tears through the whole thing.

  17. Finn is singing Buckingham's parts using his almost exact phrasing and drawl.
    I'm not sure how he could re-work the vocals, but he's supposed to be the vocal artist, that's what they do.
    Maybe FM forced him to sing that way ?

    1. Exactly! Stevie Nicks demanded he be fired so Campbell could be in. That’s not the band’s story. They are blaming it on Lindsey. Duh!

  21. The original Fleetwood Mac was a middle of the road successful blues based band. They were somewhat popular, Christine came in when they had to get rid of Peter Green and they started moving towards more rock less blues. Then one of them got religious and quit which brought in Buckingham to replace him along with his g\f Nicks which changed everything totally and made them one of the most popular groups in the world, most likely because of Stevie more than him.

  24. The band lineup was always interesting/peculiar, with fantastic results music wise.
    You had the brits doing bluesy rock stuff, with Peter Green writing acid trip songs, and Lindsey and Stevie were doing southern folk type stuff, and somehow Mick saw that Lindsey and his finger picking lead guitar style would be a great fit and let Stevie come along for the ride initially.
    The Rumours was made and everything changed in a hurry.

  26. what does the title of the blind mean?

    Maybe a reference to their original guitarist Jeremy Spencer who left the band before their American Tour in 1971 to serve God, opening the door for Lindsey (and Stevie) to join the band after Peter Green also departed?

  30. "Jeremy Spencer, vocalist, lead guitarist, and composer for Fleetwood Mac, sits somewhere between the accidentally and the deliberately lost. He sits, in tattered rags, among hundreds of so-called “Bible freaks,” in the Children of God “mission” near downtown Los Angeles. He dances, chants, sings, prays, eats – and lives – with the Children of God. And only a week before, he had arrived in town, with the rest of Fleetwood Mac, ready to do a three-day gig at the Whisky."

    To expound on my previous post about the title. Yes it is a well known blues brother line, but I also think it is a winking reference to this incident that left FM without their guitarist and opened the door to Lindsey (and Stevie).

    ReplyDelete
  31. Yea, this was just a fun to read blind - lots of inside jokes and references.

    Saw FM a couple times in the late 70s/80s. And saw them for Buckingham more than any other reason - you can keep "Dreams" - give me "The Chain", or "World Turning", or " Go Your Own Way".

    Linds has a solo tour passing through my area in December - I'll go see him just as an fu to Stevie.

  40. Stevie was one of many acts I was privileged to see in an outdoor stadium outside of Phoenix AZ for a fundraiser for the Arizona Heart Institute in the early Aughts. Back then she had a whole cult following. Women that would dress all ethereally and act like magic goddesses. Too funny, hadn't thought about those women in years. I think they even called themselves something but I cannot recall just like the only other person performing that I can remember was Joe Walsh and I know there were two or three other famous names. She may still do that benefit. Sad to hear her voice has failed but she is no spring chicken.

    See I took the Blue Brothers references as a nod to Nicks. Nicks and Carrie Fisher look very similar, which only solidifies all of this as Fleetwood Mac. And Carrie's character was a crazy, jealous bitch in the movie who manipulated and tried to undermine her ex, Jake, whenever she could.

  46. I read the biography of Stevie Nicks, and alot of this doesn't match what it said. Buckingham was a complete dick for many years and difficult to work with because of his huge ego. It also talked about his apparent violence towards women including Stevie, and there were witnesses. She always had crappy taste in men.

    The irony of course is that he brought her into the band to keep them together, and the opposite happened, and now she keeps him out of the band! The results of his actions were the complete opposite of what he intended.

  52. Fleetwood Mac have had no energy or chemistry for two decades now. I saw them 15 years ago (both on TV and in person), touring in support of their hopeless album "Say You Will", and it was like somebody stuck 4 corpses on the stage and handed them musical instruments. And that was WITH Lindsey. They are totally burnt.

  53. Ah bahahahaha!!! So not a blind, and somebody clearly hates Stevie Nicks.

    Anyway. I'm pretty sure I read on CDAN or the CDAN Facebook page, that Buckingham lost his hearing to the point that it affected his singing. Then he was being a dick about getting help, so Mick had to let him go.

    I mean, it wouldn't be the first contradictory blind on CDAN....

  55. "Ironically, the male vocalist and guitarist was the only one the band wanted but he insisted he and his GF were a package deal when they joined the band 43 years ago."

  56. Yes, they only wanted the male, until they realized that it was the female, the villainess of this story, who was the superior singer and songwriter. The "villainess" in this story wrote nearly all of the band's best music (the other female member wrote some excellent songs as well) and is far and away the most popular member. The male "victim" wrote maybe 1 great song and a few other good ones. His best work was in producing their greatest album

  57. eh, there are literally hundreds of blinds where the guy is the jerk or villain. Probably at about an 80% to 20% rate with the guy being the bad guy vs the woman. Several of the other blinds today are calling out the guys - Foster, Bobby Brown, the dude leading his girl (strange things) to drug addiction and probably death soon etc.
    It is ridiculous to take this blind and start playing the "misogyny" card. Stevie isn't a saint and isn't above being vindictive towards Lindsey. Lindsey isn't a saint either and they had a complicated relationship. For 2 people who had such good song writing skills, they sure weren't very good with actual communication within the relationship.

  60. Stevie Nicks is not a nice person. Sorry! She has slept with scores of married men. Many of them who had pregnant wives at the time. She does not care about other people's feelings period. She slept with Mick Fleetwood behind the band's back and pretended to be his wife Jenny's dear friend. Nicks has treated Buck far worse than she has ever treated him. She is popular with her devotees but she owes alot of her best songs to Buck's work. He has always been loyal to her. Have you seen her interacting with her fans in the last ten years? Google it. She has disdain for them. She only cares about her famous fans. Now this? Because she wanted Mick Campbell in the band? WTF? Who does that?? Mick is an idiot. Mike Campbell and Neil Finn should run, not walk away from this crazy train. The band should apologize to Lindsey and try to get him back.

  61. @Jacr Rabbit,there was a time when Buckingham/Nicks were the fake band.I still think he was fired because of his past behavior,possibly because of the #me too movement.

  62. Lindsey Buckingham is hugely talented, and apparently an asshole as well but I'd still be taking him over Stevie. Even she admits he's the one who makes her songs good. I like her songs, but (as noted) she's slept with everybody and I just can't with her as a person.

    1. Do you know he rewrote most of music on all her FM songs? He transformed Dreams from a 2 chord song to a musical masterpiece. Listen to her demo outtake of Gypsy that she left off Bella Donna. It, like most of her solo stuff, starts with machine drum beat. He took and transformed to the musical masterpiece that is Gypsy on Mirage. She relied on him heavily. You missed the point again. No one said BucK is a master lyricist. He’s a master musician who arranged and produced the music that transformed the band. This isn’t about gender or solo careers.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Ya'll could be right but what I've noticed is that unless Enty can frame a female as a poor victim of some awful man, she is open for his worst treatment as celebrity gossip goes.

    It stands to reason. People like seeing uppity women brought down low. It's part of a carnal instinct that Enty plays to, over and over again. A woman is rich - she blackmailed people. A woman has a happy healthy sex life - she's a whore. A woman is successful by working hard at her profession - she sleeps with all the powerful men. A woman is self confident - she does drugs....it's as old as time itself, unfortunately.

    @Yeah!

    Buck isn't even a master song writer, as far as tunes go. You can call Stevie's initial offerings simplistic (if I read you correctly) but she brought solid bones to the process and obviously collaborated with Buck to produce their ethereal sound together. Buck does not have that alone, no matter how much he over-produces his songs. Stevie is essential, so is Buck. Neither of them work as well solo.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Stevie is the only member that's had decent work outside of the band. That's the truth.
    They are lucky to have attained such accomplished new members. I can't speak for Lindsey or Christine, but Stevie's voice sounds like shit now. I'm going to hope that Neil does justice to Lindsey's songs. He's got a great voice.

    ReplyDelete
  72. There are so many stories about Lindsey's explosive temper and combativeness and flat-out abuse of Stevie and his ex-girlfriend Carol with whom he was with for many years. He's always been insanely jealous of Stevie's solo success and the fact that the band's greatest hits were usually Stevie songs, not his as he sees himself as a far superior musician--which is true. In his mind, he should have had the bigger solo career, not her. So there's always been bad blood between them. I think she just got tired of dealing with his bullshit. There seems to have been some precipitating event but I still don't think the real story has been told about it yet. I was meh on their Ellen appearance but I still forked up money to see this iteration of the band. None of them are getting any younger and I deeply regret not seeing Tom Petty last time around because it did indeed turn out to be his last tour. I'll take 4 out of the 5 originals.

    1. I disagree with most everything you posted. He had a temper in the 80s and 70’s. There are not so many stories. They are literally the same two stories going around—one from 1980 when they were all out of their minds on drugs. And it was on stage! The other from 1987 that Stevie said she instigated. 40 years ago and 30 years ago. And nothing after that. . The Stevie Nicks is an abused woman card is absurd! And no one gave a rat’s ass about these old stories until now. Give me a break! She was tired of HIS bullshit? Are you for real? Do you have any idea how difficult it is to work with Stevie? Any idea how many producers who worked on her solo albums quit? The Stevie was abused mantra is a load of crap. She is the difficult one. By far.

  76. Did Lindsey's wife write this? :D It if full of BS. Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks were best friends, never lovers, till his last day. She was also best friends with his first wife, and helped Tom deal with her psychological issues. She performed countless times with the Heartbreakers, and was introduced by Tom Petty himself at their concerts as "our little sister", and "the only, legendary honorary Heartbreaker". They gave her a platinum sheriff star with a diamond for each member of the band, with the words "to the only girl in our band" on it. She wears it on her top hat. Mike Campbell and Stevie Nicks have written songs together for 30 years. They backed her as a band on her solo songs, and she sang back vocals on theirs. She must be a very persuasive talentless wench to achieve that lol...

    On the other hand, it is well documented by many sources that Lindsey was emotionally and PHYSICALLY abusive to every woman he ever dated, and most of the people he worked with professionally. That's been confirmed by Mick Fleetwood's in his autobiography (throwing a guitar at Stevie's head in front of 40000 people in New Zeland, which ended the show early, and almost got him kicked out of the band; trying to strangle her during a meeting at Christine McVie's house), his ex girlfriend's autobiography (she was told by a physician after years of extreme abuse that she would end up in a body bag), Ken Caillat's book, one of the producers of Rumours who Lindsey also tried to strangle, and even Santana, who said Lindsey is one of the most obnoxious people he has ever met.

    His wife is a 50 something year old nothing-turned-to-interior-designer, who has been extremely rude to fans, using foul language ant throwing tantrums every time somebody would approach her, mocking them, and expressing disgust at the Stevie/Lindsey interaction on stage, during their 2003 tour, when she attended many of their concerts. She is a mother of three almost grown up children, using foul language, and insulting everything and everyone who doesn't support her husbands firing from the band, alienating fans that support Lindsey just because he was a part of Fleetwood Mac, and his former band members who he is desperately trying to reach with no success, because his solo career is as lucrative as his wife's. I guess she really must be pissed by the fact their income will be greatly reduced. After all, she didn't married a confirmed woman abuser just for the fun of it.

    Fleetwood Mac NEVER performs on TV shows, because it always turns into a disaster. The timing must be perfect, so songs are rushed and shortened. The sound mixing is always off, and there is nothing spontaneous about it. wait and see how they perform live on stage, doing a huge show. Since the ticket sales are going so bad, they recently added a THIRD show at the LA Forum. The tickets to see Fleetwood Mac are some of the most expensive in the industry, and to your disappointment, they are selling pretty good, considering that many of the show are scheduled for 2019, with some venues already sold out.

    Lindsey and Christine made an album which started as a Fleetwood Mac project. Stevie turned down the opportunity to work with the abuser, just like she's been doing for the past 15 years. She did a solo album instead, and did a tour simultaneously with Buckingham/McVie. While BuckVie struggled to fill small theaters, she filled concert halls both in the USA and Australia. The same venues that Fleetwood Mac fills as a full band including Buckingham. Now that Buckingham is gone, we can expect a new Fleetwood Mac album sans Mr. Abuser. We already saw how that works with their Behind The Mask album from 1990, which sold mere 5 mil copies around the world, and was followed by a mammoth tour.

    Next time you decide to write something, I suggest you use Google and Youtube, and get your facts straight, before embarrassing yourself, or at least try not to be a liar.

  77. Lady you are straight up full of shit and need to have a seat. Can you read? Nowhere in the blind does it say that Petty and Nicks were lovers. It said they were NOT. LOL- so Stevie was helping people with drugs and alcohol in 1986? Is that why she followed Petty around the world when Jane was staying at home with kids? You are a disgusting liar. You are also FOS. The abuser? Get out of town. Do you know what the word documentation means? A tabloid trash book by people trying to make money isn’t documentation. He was rude to her on stage in 1980 and in 1987 she was drunk out of her mind and abusing Klonopin and jumped on him and scratched him and he got her off on him. You are stupid if you think Google and YouTube are sources of facts. You should stop smearing a person’s name because you aren’t sophisticated enough to understand or discern trash from real documentation. Let’s pretend the last 30 years didn’t happen and focus on two events that happened when Ronald Regan was president. Stupid AF.

    You are an out and out liar for posting that it’s well documented he abused lots of people NONSENSE! ONE and only one girlfriend said he was abusive toward her, the one who wrote a book 24 years later with no corroborating evidence. No other woman has ever said he was abusive to her. Pathetic LIAR. Anne Heche said he was a wonderful boyfriend. Stevie Nicks said he never abused her. He has been married for 20 years with ZERO problems. People like you are disgusting and an insult to abuse victims. You are a pig. There has also never been anyone he worked with who claimed he abused them. You are a lying chiffon head who is not too bright. You must be desperate making up lies about a total stranger. You are a liar.
    IS this you Stevie? Karen? Why would Mrs. Buckingham have written this? I would his wife is far more educated than you are. I bet you’ve never held a professional job in your life. You sound like a Stevie cultist who is old, overweight, and undereducated and lives through Nicks. You are lying about Buckingham and his wife. There is no information that Ms. Buckingham e has ever been rude to fans, on the contrary, most fans find her lovely. It’s funny you would call anyone a liar after what you just posted about his life. A nothing? Seriously, you sound like uneducated trailer park trash. She is young, thin, educated and in love with her husband. Nice way to try to act like she married him for money. What a nasty vile pig you are. You are ignorant about music industry royalties and finances. Another moron trying to spread crap.

    Stevie has held the band back for years. All four FM members were on Buckingham/McVie. The Mask as album sucked so bad, the members didn’t want their picture on it.
    Fleetwood Mac may have never performed on a TV show before but that changed on 9/5. You going to blame that on Lindsey too idiot? Tickets are not selling well. Another lie. That’s why they are doing TV appearances. Go sell stupid elsewhere. You got a hell of a lot of nerve calling Enty down after the slanderous lies and absolute bulls shit you just posted. You sound mentally ill.


    The Mask? ROTFLMAO? Yeah, right, all these people in their 70s are going to be making tons of new albums. Mick just said they will in a few years. Have a seat fool.

  78. I agree with you. I would be here all day pointing out all the mistakes in Unknown's post and the out and out lies. I just don't have the time. She is completely wrong about the abuser claim she is trying to make- either willingly lying or painfully ignorant.

    Really classless to go after his wife. That's messed up. Most people are higher up on food chain.

  80. Seems a few people are taking this a bit too personally. Have a glass of wine and relax. No need for name calling. Anything you were trying to pontificate on was lost in a sea of insult and poor manners.

  81. I am laughing at the abuse comments. First off there a handful of allegations about Lindsey and abuse that date back to the 70's and end in 87. The most vocal has been his bitter ex GF who 25 years after they split wrote a sleazy tell all that was BS. She didn't even put her face on the cover for obvious reasons.

    As for the other stories the 80 incident was Lindsey mocking SN on stage and it was handled back then. In 87 Lindsey declined to tour for the album he made mostly on his own. SN attacked him in Christine's house and he retaliated. Certain worshipers of SN love to rehash that story but always leave out the part where she attacked him first.

    When it comes to delays and such SN is the ONLY member who since 82 has been the hold up / hold out on new FM projects. Lindsey has more then once shelved a solo album to work with FM. Stevie Nicks was given the opportunity to work with the band on the last FM album. She stalled and eventually declined to contribute so they released under the Buckingham McVie name. Mick said the album was so good it would win awards.

    Suddenly after Tom's Death and The Buckvie album Lindsey gets fired and every lie sorry excuse they have tried to peddle has been quickly refuted yet to some fans anyone who says anything less then complimentary about SN or the other band members is either a Lindsey cultist or doesn't know what they are talking about.

    Lindsey's wife is an established interior designer who doesn't need Lindsey's money yet some nut jobs keep claiming she needs the money or that any of the money she and Lindsey have is due to the success of SN. Yes she has been vocal but can you blame her? Her husband has been lied about and slandered by members of FM and the online community.

    Mick will do anything for a buck and has proven time and again that he will stab anyone in the back for money. This time though he has gone too far. I think he and SN didn't expect such a backlash.


    SN may be the star but it seems this time the general public isn't interested. Not one show is sold out and they added a 3rd LA show due to "Overwhelming demand" yet none of the other two shows are sold out.

    The band is a now a joke. The fact that the selling point this time is playing some pre 75 material after they ignored it for years is proof of how desperate they are to sell this new lineup and tour.

    Lindsey is the reason they got as big as they did since he was the architect of their classic sound. It will be proven once again that without him they will not be as good or as successful

  82. Lindsey gans must be even crazier then they seem if they think anyone in their right mind would read their ridixulously long public nervous brakdowns over their shitty idol. Luckily, they can be counted on the fingers of one hand. And I am being veey generous here.

    1. Oh look! Another angry Stevie Cultust short on facts, brains and logic. A truly false and classless response. Stevie is a witch who has stabbed people in the back for years. Slept with countless friends’ husbands. Now all she has is dumpy Larwn. Lindsey has a family and a life. Stevie is all Ali d with her wack-a-do fans, dog and Karen. She’s now being revealed to be the selfish, nasty, bitter and vindictive tool she is. Same on Stevie Nicks. Shame on Fakewood Wacked. Karma will come.

  84. Me either. But some of her fans are insanely dumb. Check out the Fleetwood Mac pages on FB. Not sure how some of these folks open cereal boxes.

  85. The Facebook groups for FM AND SN are quite something. Most (but not all) of the people who post there just trash Lindsey and his family and bring up the abuse stories to justify his firing because that is all they have. If you try to offer some counterpoint to their stupid comments they delete your comments and block you. They also love to quote books that the Band had no say in and that were proven to be littered with factual errors. Lindsey should sue the pants off of those people who post their slanderous lies.

  86. You need not rely upon 'he said, she said' testimonials about Stevie -v- Lindsey - who's the really mean one accounts. Just look at the You Tube documentary about the making of 'Say You Will'. You will see quite plainly that Stevie had zero sense of humour, cannot take constructive criticism, compares herself with Bob Dylan. That is all you need to see to tell what kind of person she is. The other evidence you can see from her odd behaviour when someone dies. First it was her best friend. She married her husband? Who does that? Tom Petty dies and she's been hitching her star to his ever-do-deceased wagon ever since. What they had in common I will never know. Not values, that's for sure. Her morals are as far removed from Tom's as they could be. He was loyal, she is not. If Tom was her friend, I suspect he was just being nice to her mostly and you can see he was rather patronising toward her too. He was probably remembering the mantra - keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
