Ken told Christine might go out on the road with Fleetwood Mac in 2014
 
Listening to an interview with Ken Caillat. He states that he's told Christine may go on the road in the last leg of 2014.

If that's true.. wow.. just wow....

Interesting.

How in the loop is Ken these days anyway? I'm hesitant to get my hopes up but lord knows we'd all love for it to be true.

It's a valid point. Rumours are flyin'.

SteveMacD 10-22-2013 04:53 PM

I don't think he's all that in the loop with Fleetwood Mac, but he seems pretty close to Christine.

Agreed.

It's an odd thing to imagine that Christine might do some touring with FM again, after her years out of the spotlight; a lovely thing, though. I'm starting to believe anything is possible after the events of 2013.

Oh, and it's interesting that Ken says Christine said she wouldn't rejoin because of too many bad memories of her marriage to Eddy Quintela, rather than mentioning the hatred of touring or flying. He also repeats his concerns that she was going 'a little nuts' cooped up in the house in Kent. I'm glad she seems to be out of that phase.

But, wow, what if she did join them on a second US leg next year?!

vivfox 10-22-2013 06:26 PM

I was convinced there wouldn't be a second leg.

applebucked 10-22-2013 07:37 PM

Even Christine herself recognized she was going nuts. :laugh: And I figured her divorce to Eddy figured quite a lot on her decision to leave. Perhaps (forming a conjecture here) that marriage breakdown started the chain of issues in Christine's life like the panic attacks, the fear of flying, etc. Glad she seems to be getting out of that

Same. If it's true, though. I can't even.

SteveMacD 10-22-2013 08:21 PM

I wonder if a second leg depends on Christine's involvement, and I wonder what Brett's involvement -if any- would be if Christine came back.

Possible (though since this tour is very successful, maybe there will be a second leg regardless). Also, Brett was there during The Dance so his involvement would probably be in a similar capacity as it was back then.

And latter part of 2014. I thought there would be a second leg, but I thought it would end during the first half of 2014.

I would be interested in hearing Christine refer to Ken and the fact that she's been in contact with him, rather than him just mentioning her.

In London, Brett was even still playing on Don't Stop. He still had something to do, even though Christine was commanding the keyboards.

Well, Lindsey has said that that's why she cut off all ties. I mean, he linked her divorce, selling her house and leaving the band all together as one thing.

If there were a second leg at the end of 2014, I think it's a certainty that there'd be a new album.

Maybe the first part of 2014 is going to be reserved for FM Studio time. :angel: I can dream.

I would hope so. They need Chris on the road and/or a new album. Otherwise, I would prefer this tour end in Vegas.

Sounded like he was playing the high strings sounds.

There are a few ways of looking at that, though. In the old days, Jeff Sova would play the synth string parts (i.e. on "Don't Stop" and "Tusk"), but wasn't on stage with the band, which I bet is what they've been doing since Brett became the full time keyboardist. However, they did have Dan Garfield for the Tango and Mask tours, and Brett splitting between guitars and keyboards on The Dance. The fact the band streamlined the mini-Mac in 2009 makes me wonder what approach they'll take.

While I like Brett, it would be really cool if the only extra musicians on stage were Neale, Sharon, and Lori.

It would be even cooler if the only extra musician was, Ray Lindsey.

Didn't Ken just say, in the interview, "her ex-husband"? I took that to mean John, but thought it odd since Chris and John have seemed to be on good terms forever now. I think John would make more sense than Eddy, though...

No. I think it would be about Eddy Quintela; I don't think there are any issues with John any longer, nor have there been for decades.

I don't know a great deal about her breakup with Eddy Quintela, but there were some mutterings around the time of The Dance about the situation. I get the impression the marriage did not end happily.

I think it's Eddy as well, for the same reasons.

What you said. But they've had hidden guys since Tango(maybe before even).

Yes agreed. But the Mirage tour was so raw and fantastic. Even with the overdubs and post production, I felt like I was watching a real show.

Same. It was also the last before the mini Mac came along for the ride and now there are too many cooks in the kitchen.

Macfanforever 10-23-2013 01:08 PM

With Mac We will never know what is up their sleeves until it happens.

Maybe they need chef Ramsey to straiten the Mac out.Pun intended.LOL....

At Tango, when the house lights were still up(pre show), I was walking to my seat, and from one tiny vantage point, I could see this HUGE offstage keyboard rig. Like literally 9-10 keyboards. I kept on rubbernecking, and finally some douchebag security guard got onto me, for looking! Did I mention he was a douchebag?:lol:

But it certainly wasn't Chris playing that giant rig!:mad:

ejb1969 10-23-2013 06:12 PM

Ken begins to talk about Chris at approx. 12:30 into the recording.

I like one of those tees.I could of used it at Walmart tonight dealing with the idiots at the cashier line.


Meantime I would love to see Christine in the states touring next year like most if all of us on this board love to see it happen.



Who said they have to fly to the shows.They can do the bus routes.

They have to plan ahead with the venue bookings like probably now and leave travel time leeway between the shows.

If Mac will tour next year without Chris .They can just close it in Vegas at the end of the year and Stevie can return to her own touring or whatever she wants to do. and the boys can go back to their projects.

on the audio it really sounds like he says "she was living in Canterbury" Weird.

She lives pretty close to Canterbury, IIRC.

I wonder if she's considering selling? There was all that local trouble over the area of public land which she bought (with a consortium of others) a few years ago.

I couldn't see her living in the apartment in London full-time; too public, too busy, too small!

I think she likes being near her brother in Kent, but I do wonder if she might downsize or move to a less isolated location.
