Christine Will be joining them

olive · #1 04-21-2013, 07:03 AM

it's a start .... hopefully !

From "Stevie Nicks Info
Prior to the show, Mick Fleetwood told fans at tonight’s VIP meet and greet that Christine McVie would be performing onstage with Fleetwood Mac during the London concerts in September. The band is still working out her level of involvement. But, according to Mick, she has confirmed to perform with Fleetwood Mac.

If this is indeed true, I wonder if she'll perform at all the London dates. I have tickets for the 1st night in LDN and would be sad to miss her.

There is a guy called Brad, @EFQZ who tweeted a lot about the Mick M&G. He has said he will blog the full info in next day or so. Tweet highlights mention Christine rehearsed with them and will perform in London (full story to follow in blog)....although his tweets seemed to imply showS and I saw another person tweet show, with Mick not saying which show.

Hopefully a Ledgie attended and will have more info...sounds like an interesting m&g.

Other m&g items referenced from same tweeter: only love affair in the band today is Mick and John, Mick misses playing the blues, his fave songs to perform on this tour are Dreams and GYOW, Mick and John working on Aus dates as it is favourite place to play, Mick rarely goes back to Britain as his mum lives with him, and his favourite road snack is reese pb cups.

So, hopefully full details re: Chris to be blogged soon.

Oh I really hope that this is true

Maybe Chris is the hold up on the EP?

If it's true, then how possible could be that, if they decide to release of a dvd, they choose from a date where Christine joins them?? Could it be contractually possible? Would she agree?

I have a feeling she will join them onstage for the encores or something. Something similar to when Lindsey Buckingham appeared at the last couple Behind The Mask shows in California. She'll probably perform on World Turning, Don't Stop and may close with Songbird instead of Say Goodbye. That's my prediction on this.

I think she'd agree. I assume of she does it, from what she said recently, it'd only be for Dont Stop and World Turning. Presumably they could arrange for the profits to be split accordingly, *if* it happened.

it's the same info Mick gave in DC... we posted that somewhere here (probably DC thread 10 days ago).

he said she rehearsed with them at the start of rehearsals in LA and will almost definitely come to the stage for some songs in London. when we asked whether all 3 shows he said, no probably only 1. then people asked which one, and he ignored that question.

from what's been tweeted about his responses yesterday, maybe they got a lot of sh*t about just 1 of 3 shows so they are rethinking that, idk.

that's what i would assume too. and they are nicely in the first encore together.

I'm sure we'll learn all the details, "any day now".

LOL. I know.

Also, knowing Christine she may leave it to the last minute as to whether she does this. However, we should all be hugely encouraged that she rehearsed with them and that she performed in Maui. She seems to have gotten over her bad stage fright.

yes, seems likely. Mick gave pretty detailed description during DC m&g how the Maui thing happened. seemed to have been pretty haphazard, with Steven Tyler asking Christine (since Mick promised her he wouldn't badger her) whether she'd join them on stage for their previously scheduled charity event next evening. she said categorically no in the evening, and then called Mick next morning and said she's seriously thinking she might want to do it.

It would be cool if they could rehearse one of her songs instead of just fitting her into the set list they're already doing. I think it's a waste of her presence to not add anything to the set. Not that it wouldn't be cool, but they could add a song I think without too much trouble.
