Oh no. Oh dear Lord, no.
My weird, unnatural Stevie Nicks/Lindsey Buckingham obsession has just been reactivated. I thought I had put all this behind me. Where is my Rumours album???
Thanks, Paul.
Stevie Nicks mentioned on some morning show today that the whole Fleetwood Mac crew is planning a tour for next year.
Aaaaagghh!!! Noooooooo!!!
You have no idea what a big, mushy, dreamy, 13-year-old-girl this is going to be turning me into. Goodbye, tough-as-nails emmadogs. Hello, every-song-on-Rumours-plus-Silver-Springs-And-Landslide-running through my head incessantly.
Lindsey-hearts-Stevie!!!
It’s starting already. You have all been warned.
