I can only imagine the album that's inside him after surviving the year from hell. Not many artists keep going with a tour when a member of a band passes away during the tour. No matter the obstacles thrown his way, he marched on surviving his own health scare only to be confronted with the death of Chris.

yes, people keep making up and posting whatever first comes to their mind, without having any actual clue. posters on here included. i was just reading that thread on Destiny Rules in Rumours forum and it's unbelievable the fables people come up with and try to push as gospel truth

You're quite the prankster.

Like how getting fired from a band leads to heart attacks?

If a new album comes, I’ll buy it. I’ll always have room for Lindsey’s solo stuff. But damn, I was really praying for BuckVie 2. I’m just so sad...

I too was holding out for a BuckVie II. It's so sad thinking about her leaving the band, coming back, and then departing for what will be forever.

On the one hand, it’s a little disappointing that LBCM was the only new album when the possibilities seemed endless. A lot of what could have beens. Another Rumours band album, another LBCM album, an album with Finn and Campbell, and even a blues album with Mick, John, Rick, and Mike.

However, when I think back to when ITM was somewhat of a miracle, an album and three tours over the past eight years was a blessing. The last eleven years were quite the ride and while we all wish there had been more, her return, at least for me, gave a proper sense closure for Fleetwood Mac.

I raise a glass to this.

But, I see the last tour as a stain on the band's legacy. Without Lindsey, Rick, and Billy on the tour, I feel Jeremy Spencer should have been a special guest. The Eagles did it right with their 40th Anniversary Tour by bringing Bernie Leadon as a special guest and The Stones did it for their 50th with Mick Taylor.

I like Mike and Neil. They were fine performers at my shows. But they had no hand in the creation of the Fleetwood Mac music they were playing. I wish Chris' last tour featured an all FM setlist.

On With The Show is how I'll remember the end of Fleetwood Mac.

Mick had to beg Jeremy to do the Peter Green tribute and Jeremy wouldn’t let Mick use his name to promote the show.

I felt the same way until somebody ruined it for everyone.

Clips from the 2013 tour are still shared on social media frequently to this day. Nearly 10 years later.

The same thing isn't happening for the 2018 tour. The Free Falling cover has become as expected as Stand Back at this point. Nobody will give a sh*t about that tour in 2028. It will be noted by being Christine's last tour and Lindsey's absence.

same, this. was really hoping BuckVie will get together one more time. they had such big plans in 2018.

but i'm so grateful that they did stand up firmly and pushed out that album. imagine Chris coming back with all her creative juices flowing, only to be completely stopped in her tracks and not getting that last studio album out (because "what's the point?"). and i get it why she ultimately went along with fakewood tour, even though she knew about all the backlash. only 6 months before her passing, she said in her Songbird-promoting interview that what she hopes for is to live some more. somehow she knew, she had a sense.
