Christine Replacement???

[kennation]

Ok, I don't like to b* and complain, but I will NOT be happy if they try replacing Chris on this tour... I don't want to hear Sheryl, Miley, or anyone else try to cover this Warrior Queen of music!!! I am not having it. I said to my friend, "I will tell Mick, when I meet him, 'Iwant my money back...' I will not pay nearly 2,000 bucks to hear someone try to do her music. Lindsey? Fine. Stevie? Maybe, but NO ONE ELSE! I would rather her John McVie do songbird than hear an outsider do any of Christine's songs." I mean that. If I had my choice and they were FORCING me to hear someone do her songs I would nominate one woman: Sharon Celani. This woman knows the music, IS VERY CAPABLE, and is the closest thing they have to someone deserving the chance to do it... That is only my opinion...

I couldn't agree more with you. I think Lori Perry would be a good option too. But nobody else.
ohhh Christine, we miss you so much. I miss her not only as herself, but also as the buffer between lindsey and stevie.

Could not agree more. Somehow Christine just brought a mellow, detached loveliness which cancelled out all the angst and self-involvement of those two.

As for her songs on this tour: if it's not SN or LB singing them, I should imagine a lot of people will be rather peeved. It's not fair to ask people to pay all that money to hear a backing singer - however loyal, however talented - to sing one of those classics herself.

i dont think Chris is being replaced on this tour...much like the last one. I think the band knows she's irreplaceable.

I hope. Everyone, HOPE WITH ME, lol.... Seriously, someone said that Miley Cyrus was replacing her and it just set me off, not matter how ridiculous the rumor was. I was like, NO WAY!!! I don't know if it's just a mood I am in, but I would seriously ask for my money back. No way would I even begin to play with that.

Oh- and Lori would be cool too. I agree, no one wants to hear the back up singer, but if they put Sharon Celani out front with LB on WORLD TURNING (add some maracas) the crowd would go nuts!!! Stevie would lose it! They would rock it.

I have already read in one or two interviews a few months back that they would be showcasing the backup singers (Sharon and Jana...dont think Lori) in some of the songs so they could get some of the harmonies back... They ARENT replacing anyone!

Unfortunately it's true. At least as of right now. But they are Fleetwood Mac, so things could change in an instant. BTW, if you'd have heard the recording of Miley doing "SONGBIRD" I bet you (and everyone else) would change your mind. And this is coming from someone who doesn't like her kiddie music. Stay tuned, I heard there is an update on the Fleetwood Mac/Cyrus tour.

Hey! What a good idea. I would *love* to hear John McVie sing "Songbird." He'd probably give it an earnest, gritty, Willy Nelson-style delivery ... not the overly smooth delivery, with all the edges gone, that all the ladies mentioned in this thread would probably use.

It would be an entirely different song, and you know what? It might be really good.

At least it would show the band were thinking "outside the box"!

Wtf, Miley!?!?!? This Is The First I've Heard Of That!!!!!

I wasn't happy when Peter Green left...but, we got Christine out of the deal...so don't be so friggin' closed minded. Chances are at this point, there WON'T be a replacement, but if there is, LIVE WITH IT!!
