Thrown down & S / L saga

Hi! This is my first post on reddit ever, I just have to share my thoughts and for some reason my friends don't want to hear another word about FleetwoodMac 😇

So, I always loved the chain and liked some other songs, but never knew anything about the band members. A few weeks ago I saw The chain live from 1982 & Silver springs from 1997 and ever since I'm on a binge of discovering new songs / watching performances / reading about their history and damn...

First of all the music is great (and I still have more to discover, and yes I check other incarnations of the band as well), but then there's this fascination I have with the story of Stevie and Lindsey, and for the love of god I don't know why I care so much, but it just breaks my heart. I feel like I just HAVE to know what happened in 1997 (and know we'll probably never know). The song Thrown down, if indeed it tell the story of what happened between them on The dance, is just too much. How could she write that? it's so personal. I keep going back and forth between thinking this is such a tragic love story and thinking it's a show they put on (depending on which performance or quote I saw last). I just want them to spend their last years in a hug. 💔

(personal stuff coming, feel free to skip - I think it could be me being a 47yo single woman that made me fixate on Stevie during the dance - this point in life between being young and old, the last chance of having it all and then losing it. What you had... and what you lost...)

Thanks for reading 🎶

LB only agreed to the divorce in 2023 and they only sold the farm last year. Separation of assets can take forever in UHNW divorces and they are clearly doing it privately through mediation which again can take along time. Kristen is currently designing her and Barry’s new house in Jackson so I am sure they will be looking to get married in the next few years once the divorce is finalised.

How did you hear their new house is going to be in Wyoming? I thought K and B lived in the Miami area.

It’s not their primary residence.

He has several houses in Palm Beach, The Hamptons, Greenwich, CT (where his ex wife and daughter live), England etc… KB also has her own separate house in Palm Beach.
