Not from the band itself or their spokesperson, but all the media have. However I think it's just a matter of obviousness and that an official statement about it from the band would have been done only in the opposite scenario that she wouldn't attend.
However there are still more than three full months to know.

I saw in one of the articles, featuring Christine McVie. I thought that was weird and obvious.

True, but tickets go on sale this week, though. I'm one of those yahoos who plans to attend this silly thing.

Enjoy!!! I spend thousands on the 2014 tour. That was enough.

i guess whether or not one would consider going depends on:

1. having the money (*cheapest* tix are $150, at the top of the stadium - what if you are afraid of heights? , and the expensive ones are priced way too high for most people).
2. whether you like majority of these bands. for me, i really like just FM and i've heard their greatest hits (plus a few more songs, which they don't even do at festivals!) numerous times in 2014-15. i've heard Steely Dan are fantastic live but i can see them for much cheaper, from great seats. i can't stand the Eagles, and especially Henley. i don't care for Journey. so for me it would be almost like paying huge money for torture - and i'm not into that!

so i have my popcorn and coffee, enjoying watching all this spectacle around the festival i wouldn't go to even if it was free.

although, i'm slightly pi**ed that the delay in BuckVie dates coming out is because these Classic things didn't go on regular onsale yet so any even small promotional announcement of BuckVie dates would get lost in the commotion so i guess they might be waiting at least a week after this. although maybe i'm giving them too much credit and their team is just completely unorganized.

Would you ever expect anything different from anyone in the FM camp? They've always had their marketing heads shoved directly up their arses.

I've tried several different Presales this week, and can't get any of the $150 seats to show up for sale. It keeps taking me to the nosebleeds in the 500 level, which are $250 each. The $150 seats are located in the following sections:
- Field Corner (which corner(s)???)
- Promenade Side (400 level - which sections?)
- Excelsior Corner (300 level - which sections?)
- Promenade Center (400 level - which sections?)
Anyone familiar with Citi Field who can identify where these sections are? The seating chart doesn't provide many clues. I'm sure they're lousy seats, but I just want to get into the stadium...

good luck!!

did you check that same venue for other acts, where they might provide a seat map?

so far for this show the only thing on TM is just a very general layout http://www.ticketmaster.com/exchange...1&minorcatid=1

I'm glad I have friends that let me use their American Express. Seats were almost gone when I bought my ticket last night. It's like they only want American Express cardholders to go to these concerts. When they go on sale for the general public, there will be nothing left.

Yeah, unfortunately that seating chart is not very useful. You can't zoom in close, and I don't think any of the $150 seats are even identified on it. I'll see what comes up with today's General Public sale. It will be interesting to see how ticket sales go.
