but they didn't play Don't Stop or Second Hand News, their huge hits and staples of Mac live shows. and yet it was all great, audience found the show rocking and high energy even though there were so many new songs they haven't heard before.

It would have been interesting to see how the band would have worked if Lindsey, Christine and Billy had got together. Obviously Lindsey and Christine's chemistry has been well documented over the years. Christine and Billy I felt had really good chemistry the times they worked together. I would have loved to hear Lindsey put his touch on Billy's work. I think the two really would have got along seeing as Billy has always been willing to play "second fiddle". Mixing Bekka in would have been REALLY cool seeing as she is a completely different type of singer/vocalist than Christine or Stevie. Considering how many different artists Bekka has worked with over the years, I really think she would have found a place in the group and given Fleetwood Mac a new and unique element the band never had before or ever.

Bekka is technically the best singer FM has ever had. My god she's got some amazing pipes on her! FM doesn't need two male vocalists, though. Especially considering their catalog. And Lindsey would have never allowed that, either.

Let's be real. There was never a chance of a different configuration of Fleetwood Mac members moving forward as a band without slapping the label of Fleetwood Mac on it. Whenever it has been more than 2 Fleetwood Mac members in a group setting, it has been labeled Fleetwood Mac.
John McVie would never agree to leave his boat for a potentially smaller cash haul to do a smaller tour with a band minus Stevie. Mick has clearly always been motivated by the big money of FM tours and still is. This is why neither John or Mick participated in the BuckVie tour....and what a lame back-peddling move to do. Have a great time recording the album and then not go out on the road with it for fear of band politics...aka Stevie. They never fully supported Lindsey or Christine in that project. It's the same spineless behavior that occurred when Lindsey was fired. Would it have been amazing to see them form a group minus Stevie? Heck yeah but the distorted and warped sense of loyalty has and always would have prevented it from happening no matter how you slice it. It also would have been way too much work and risk for either Mick or John. It's far easier to find a few folks who can cover some guitar parts and "kinda" sound like Fleetwood Mac, reboot the Fleetwood Mac touring show and make a boatload of cash. Heck, has Jonn McVie EVER played with Micks Blues Band? And they BOTH have homes in Hawaii where Mick and his band play.

In fairness, it probably wasn’t somehow the Mac who could not perform it. It probably was Lindsey who did not want to perform it without the layers.

I do hold him responsible for that. He put the Phil Spector in Hold Me and probably was dissatisfied with the way it came off on stage without Phil (or fill or feel).
I also blame him for not performing Isn’t It Midnight on tour with Christine because it sounded so incredible live and I miss not getting to hear him do that. I hope his arrangement would have been as good as what we got. |

Think About Me on 2014-15 tour (Aus leg) was disappointing, unlike Hold Me on BuckVie tour.

Christine did a wonderful Hold Me on her solo tour in 1984. Sounded better live then than the Mac's 1982 version. Of course Chris had several guys backing her but no background singers LOL

Not sure about 2018/2019, because I have no interest in Fakewood Mac.
