It makes sense that they would give Stevie Stand back back into the set and Chris and Lindsey ask for these two songs.
Thoughts.

If any songs from Buckingham/McVie album are to be included in Fleetwood Mac Live 2018 (I don't think they will have a tour name this time) then On With the Show and Carnival Begin are the only choices that make perfect sense. I was actually going to start a thread on this exact topic before I saw you had beat me to it.
On With the Show was the inspiration for the title of the tour in 2014/2015, before the song had even been released Christine had fallen in love with it and I assume Stevie heard it too (as there were rumours it was slated to be part of the setlist but got canned last minute)...so they named the tour On With the Show.
Carnival Begin is very clearly and openly about Christine conquering her fear of flying and rejoining Fleetwood Mac.
So the two songs and their themes fit the band's history very well.
I would, if there were betting markets on this, bet that at least one of the two new songs mentioned above will be played in 2018 live, by Fleetwood Mac.
Stevie can have Stand Back but I sincerely hope she writes a new song as well. I heard rumours she wrote one new song a couple of years back called My Mother's Rings...if she doesn't want to play that, she can update Space Needle and sing it instead.
