Don and Stevie

[tjh532]

Hey, Austin, thanks for finding that Behind the Music about Stevie. I loved watching it again!

Hey guys - here's something I had on an old bootleg, but didn't have uploaded. Shun found it conveniently cropped and uploaded to YouTube! Stevie is describing a gift she got from Don in the first part, starting about 0:25. Very cute! Thanks, Shun!

I loved that! I like how she's so mystical...talking about how the pendant didn't want to leave her. was she dating Don at that time?

I also love her bodysuit/top. anyone know where I can find those with the crisscross straps in the back? they don't seem to make them anymore...or at least they aren't very abundant. They were very popular in the 70s and early 80s

There are some people who make "inspired by Stevie" designs, but they can get pricey! Not sure where to get one from a regular store. Let me know if you ever find one!

And yes, Stevie and Don were dating at that time.

Lucky Stevie! If I got a pendant from Don Henley I would never take it off.

Lucky Stevie! If I got a pendant from Don Henley I would never take it off.

Ditto

Stevie was kind of a Don Henley fangirl herself. When she and Lindsey joined Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles had already had a number one hit ("Best of My Love") and were about to release One of These Nights, which spawned several more. Stevie looked up to Don Henley - he was a "star." I can only imagine how she felt when Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles played that festival together, and she came to the breakfast room to find tons of gifts accompanied by an invitation from Don Henley.

And I can only imagine how poor Lindsey felt, lol. He was still trying to win Stevie back, and here comes Don Henley.

Can you imagine such a horrible situation, being pursued by two HS & G rock stars?!

Hmm Lindsey or Don? Hmm That's hard. I really don't find Lindsey sexy, but he's good looking. I think I would pick Don.

But when I watched that video, he had his girlfriend around. So I wonder how Stevie felt about that. I guess they both were trying to prove I've moved on and here's proof.

[sodascouts]

Yeah, I'm sure Lindsey was like "If you can replace me with Don Henley, I can replace you, too!" lol.

I think Stevie and Lindsey are soulmates, but Don Henley would be hard to resist.

[shunlvswx]

I agree. Stevie and Lindsey are soulmates.

IMO Don and Lindsey's girlfriend doing that time were rebounds for both of them. Sometimes that don't work out and somebody will get hurt.

Lindsey might go over, Stevie, but you can't when you see each other every day on the road. You can prance your current boyfriend or girlfriend around, somebody will not be happy and I see why Lindsey was mad about dating Don. He and Stevie broke up. That tells me there that he was over Stevie at that time either.

Stevie probably kicking herself losing both Don and Lindsey.
