They may want to add "Hold Me" and "Wish You Were Here" on the next FM tour.

Buckingham, who did the majority of the talking during the evening, said when he and McVie came back together after her break from Fleetwood Mac, their songwriting chemistry was better than ever before.

“One of the other things that was a surprise and that was just a wonderful occurrence was that she started sending me song ideas, rough song ideas,” Buckingham said. “One thing led to another, and we realized we had an album on our hands. It was something no one saw coming and I guess we sort of sat around wondering what took us so long to figure that one out,” he said.

Even though I'd love for this statement to be true, because it would mean that in fact something circular happened , I very much doubt it was the case. They tried with a FM album first.
