awwww

Well, she might actually recognize some of those sounds (as "Big Love" was notedly inspired by "Running Up That Hill")! But yes, I think she and Linds have a bit more in common than she and Stevie -- and that was a spot-on run-down of "Before The Dawn" (which I attended four times!).

I could easily enjoy Fleetwood Mac without that fake bloated and over rated relationship. SYW was marginal.

I wish $he would have left to pursue her solo career and left the other very wealthy members to concentrate and be forced to write good music. Then, tour the smaller or medium size venues.

It would have been a treat, just like BuckVie. BuckVie was a summer I'll never forget. Christine McVie is Fleetwood Mac.

it would have been so much better. I'm not a Stevie hater by any means but I feel she handled this in the most Divaesque way possible and I view her totally differently now as a result.
Had she left, FM as a 4 piece would have lost nothing on a musical level and we surely would have gotten a proper BuckVie presentation, which as we know was really a Mac album sans you know who.

Florence Welch! She's got that dreamy, ethereal thing going on. And she can really sing.

I'd love to see them as a foursome w/o Stevie. Lindsey would carry the show (as he's done for every show since 97).

And they would never allow "managers" to dictate who gets replaced in the band.

But if I were going to suggest another singer to stand in for Stevie, it would have to be someone who can really belt vocals - like any of these amazing singers:

Maria McKee
Neko Case
Brandi Carlile
