Oh, Mick and Stevie will make sure she and Lindsey meet. They just don't want to say anything.

Only Christine McVie, who left the band in 1998, is staying away. She’s been leading a reclusive, distinctly non-rock’n’roll life in a Kent farmhouse ever since, having no involvement with Fleetwood Mac and never giving interviews — until now.

“We were very hedonistic,” says McVie, recalling the band’s reputation for excess in the fond manner of someone remembering high jinks at school. “But it was always fun because we never got into heroin or anything like that. If you got too high you had a drink, and if you got too drunk you had another line of coke. We did that every night until three or four in the morning. It was different back then. Once you made it you were completely nurtured in this little world.”

Why did she leave the band? “After I took my 95,000th flight something snapped. I became terrified of flying and I couldn’t face living out of a suitcase any more.”

So it comes as a further surprise to hear that, two days after our interview, she’s flying to Fleetwood’s house in Maui, Hawaii, before traveling to Los Angeles to meet the rest of the band as they rehearse for a world tour.

“No, no, no,” says Mick Fleetwood, the band’s genial, pony-tailed giant of a drummer, when I ask him if McVie will actually return to complete Rumour’s two-warring-couples dynamic that, in Buckingham’s words, “brought out the voyeur in everyone”. “We love her, we miss her, but no. She’s left. Still, she’s a huge part of our story and I certainly hope that when we tour in September and October she makes one little excursion to a gig.”

Okay. But give up the tour idea and just ask her to record with you!!!!!

I'd love that, but feel the rest of the band burned that bridge when they excluded her from SYW because she didn't want to tour. Which was pathetic, really. She couldn't be on the album because she wouldn't be on the tour to play her new material. Because FM plays new material. :laugh:

We do actually love each other, for real. Unfortunately. ’Cause it’s tough.”

Eagles, anyone?

This is pretty much exactly what Lindsey said a few weeks ago about the Eagles, so it seems to be a safe bet that's who Mick has in mind although he's wise enough to avoid naming names. Smart move considering they share the same management now.

I'm glad Mick is backing away from the assertion that Christine could very well join them on tour if he worked on her a bit. He was getting a lot of people's hopes up prematurely.
