Apologies in advance if this has already been asked and answered, but I hadn't seen it: will Mick and John be performing with Lindsey and Christine during the Buckingham McVie tour?

They will not! All the small machine plus Christine. Although Lindsey's last drummer is also now the drummer for Chicago who is also on tour this summer. So not sure who will be on drums. Maybe they'll bring that Asian guy back? Tako or something along those lines

According to an interview, Mick and John are not planning on touring, although it didn't say that they're absolutely not touring. There hasn't been any information on who will be backing them up.

Personally, I wouldn't be too surprised to see them have a proper rhythm section in addition to Neale and Brett. I also wouldn't be too surprised if George Hawkins was on bass, given his history with the band and the fact he could add harmonies.

Chicago has a new drummer? What happened to Tris Imboden? He's been there since 1991.

Well i think they will not. If they do, they have to be on some payroll and I guess a session-drummer and bassist wil be a lot cheaper :-)
