THE MEMBERS GET ALONG TODAY

Time heals all wounds. From Mick Jagger and Keith Richards to Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, bandmates who feuded eventually kiss and make up after a while. In other cases, the death of one feuding party led the other to regret the previous bitterness, as shown between John Lennon and George Harrison. Well, Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham has been fighting with members on his worst days, and on his best days, there has been tension between himself and other members, especially with his ex-partner Stevie Nicks. While John and Christine McVie have been able to overcome their messy divorce to continue performing to this day, the same cannot be said about Nicks and Buckingham. According to Newsweek, Buckingham was kicked out of the band in 2018. Buckingham said the boot came from Nicks, who gave the band an ultimatum to pick between herself or Buckingham.
Buckingham responded to the departure by suing his former band, as told by Rolling Stone. The two sides eventually reached an undisclosed settlement, and Buckingham was replaced with Mike Campbell, guitarist of the Heartbreakers, and Neil Finn of Crowded House. Any hope for another reunion seems to be quashed, as Mick Fleetwood has told NME that Buckingham would never reunite with the band again. In July 2020, Peter Green died in his sleep at 73 years old. Regardless of who has played in the band, Fleetwood Mac has cemented their place in the annals of popular music through decades of work.

and this is the kind of bs which Nicks / Azoff and Nicks' followers have been peddling since the early 2018. that's why people cannot "get over it" - as long as lies like this are being etched into the narrative (you know, you keep telling the lie over and over and eventually it becomes truth), people cannot get over it how can one get over the wound that people who inflicted it keep re-digging into?
Nicks and Buckingham are toxic to each other, period. it is not that Buckingham is toxic to the band; just watch 2017 behind the making of Buckingham McVie and the loving relationship between the 4 FM members, when Nicks' toxicity is not around.
