14/07/01 Lindsey Buckingham's Behind The Music Update
This information below was posted on The Penguin website :-
It took me a little while to confirm this but Lindsey's BTM has been pulled from VH1's schedule at this point. The show is completely finished but there is no air date anymore. My source at VH1 said the reason is, and I quote, "the likely reason for the delay is VH1 is waiting for Lindsey to release his album." Unfortunately, of course, we have no clue when (or even 'if') that will be. I wish I had better news to report.

The final edit of the Behind the Music special will likely be next week. Its debut has been delayed though from April 22nd to July 1st.
