However, I think they were a lot further along in the planning in 2017 than in 2012. Plus, it was five years later, John had had a cancer scare, and Christine was back. John (the oldest at the time) would have been 66 at the start of a 2012 tour, Christine (the oldest) was 75 at the start of the 2017 tour. The situations were very different. Quote:

I don't think that's true. If that's true, then the band lost.

I think FM thought they had already been down that road with Billy and Rick, and wanted something different. I also suspect Rick would have said no even if he had been asked- I don’t know why I feel that way, Rick has always been respectful of his time with FM but I think he might subscribe to the philosophy “fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.” I believe FM didn’t include Rick or Billy when they were inducted in the RRHOF. And Billy had his heart surgery shortly after Neil and Mike joined, but thankfully he seems to have recovered.

She knows she's the boss in Fleetwood Mac. I say change it to Fleetwood Mac Nicks.

They healed when Mick asked Rick to be in the house band in the London tribute. |

However, to put the dagger in the heart (it will never happen, BTW), I’d revamp the mini-Mac. My version would have Steve Ferrone, Benmont Tench, Scott Thurston, and Charlie and Hattie Webb. “Sorry, Stevie. Shouldn’t have ghosted us.”

I think Rick would've gone back. Someone told me that they thought Rick was an ass or something(I actually now believe it was over his politics- I don't know his politics, because they're none of my business). I've gone and seen him at a blues club in Nashville a couple times, and he seems awesome. He hangs out in the alley(Printer's Alley) when the band is on break, just like a regular guy. He's even shared pics of him and the band that I've taken, the next morning. That said, Neil and Mike are bigger names than Rick and Billy. Maybe Old I'm Not The Boss was afraid people wouldn't fill the seats for just her and her massive ego?

Sharon and Marilyn are Stevie’s backup singers.

Thank the Lord for that!
When I read mini-Mac, I was thinking mini-Mac in terms of the mini band playing behind FM. Like the one with Genesis right now. I'd love a John tour, but like Chris said earlier this year, John's done touring. |

Rick’s been part of the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band for years, was part of the core band at Mick’s Peter Green tribute, and did that remake of “These Strange Times” last year. Rick absolutely would have done the tour. He’s not a household name and arena tour money is pretty great.
