Boredom could be a part of it, then again it sounds as though she hasn't seen the band for a number of years, and in the least maybe she just wanted to escape the English weather for a sunny-vacay. Hmm... I do really wish Mick's comments prove to be more than just hopeful meandering... ;)

Me too. If Christine came back it would change all of their plans.

Not unless you take both of us" (I'm paraphrasing here). That didn't happen. Mick called Keith Olsen and Keith told Mick that they're a packaged deal. Then Keith called the couple and told them Fleetwood Mac wants BOTH of you to join.

:lol: but you know better than Lindsey? were you there?

Keith said in sound city movie that Mick called him about the guitarist and he said "you may have a problem there, he wouldn't join alone" or something like that... this was interspersed scene with Lindsey saying the same story we always heard. either story is probably simplified for the sake of telling it... for all we know Mick called Keith and the Keith called Lindsey, than Lindsey said not without Stevie, than Keith called Mick back and told him about the problem, than Mick called Lindsey, and on and on - see what i'm saying? told in circles like this story doesn't sound nearly as good. so each of them just says "Mick called me" :)

That was a nightmare, so glad that never happened.

^i guess at this point with the tour booked, it's likely not going to happen... she does, after all, have to get paid for the shows she plays at. Though they may be able to work something out if it's only the UK show... :shrug:

To make it happen, I bet Mick and Stevie, and maybe John, would give their cut to Christine. Lindsey strikes me as not really caring at this point, at least if she's not involved with the project.

Yeah, with Chris there, he can't be as "masculine" on stage... :rolleyes:

mylittledemon 02-03-2013 12:15 AM

^^haha... LOLz... Yeah maybe one of the band members just cuts her a cheque. Well... I certainly hope it happens! It's always possible that the current tour could be the last, so I'd love to see them have Chris onboard one final time.

aleuzzi 02-03-2013 12:39 AM

I don't see it happening. Possibly one show, possibly even just one song. But even then I would be shocked.

If Mick were smart, he'd be spending all his energy trying to get Christine to contribute as a full band member on a new Mac album. Or should I say ALLOWING her to participate as a full band member without having to commit to a tour. The world needs one more Rumours-lineup studio album! A real kick in the ass, fist in the air salute to the band before they all lose their teeth.

Maybe they could also get Peter Green to come out to play "Oh Well" for a UK show or two.

Maybe the same shows!

Maybe Christine could be on keyboards with Peter playing.

:rolleyes:

Nah.

Fleetwood Mac could never do something nearly as cool as Cropredy, and now with Weston and Welch gone, I'm not sure I'd see the point.

Hi Everyone! Can I make my very first post about my dream opening? (Be gentle, I'm new) It would be this:

About 10 minutes before coming on stage they pipe through the speakers:
The Chain (original Demo)
Crystal (FM version with LB singing)
and then the curtains open and the first live song is Fireflies followed by the usual version of The Chain after which they just rock the house down for the rest of the set.

Why? Because the original demo of The Chain shows the love, Crystal shows the vision, Fireflies is about survival, FM version of The Chain is about commitment to each other and then the rest of the set shows what they have done over the years.

Of course, that tour ended before the album was released (10/10/95)...

What I said was "That would have been the case if they had toured behind the "Time" record." All of those shows were before "Time" was released, hence they never toured in support of "Time".

I'd settle for her playing Songbird in the UK shows... But a full album w/ Christine on harmonies, keys and as a writer/lead vocals and such.. wow!!!!
