Lindsey we want a solo tour
 

Lindsey we want a solo tour.

yup :nod::nod:

I'm guessing there's no truth to the rumour
of a 10-city living room tour to support the
twelve song album (title yet to be determined)
by Buckingham & McVie?

My pals haven't commented. I guess that's
why I'm so curious. Very suspicious.

Absolutely! I'll be there! Bring Christine along too!

I think a Lindsey and Christine duet wouldn't do as bad as everyone thinks..

Smaller venues.. but I would love that. So sick of arena tours...

Shouldn't this be on the Lindsey forum?

Who thinks a Lindsey/Chris duet would be bad? I think it would be great. MUCH better than a full band album recorded with a spoiled diva who doesn't want to be there.

I, too, would MUCH prefer a show in a smaller venue.

I'm sure you could move it...

Maybe they could open for REO Speedwagon...

Actually no, I only moderate the Chit chat section.

or double bill with Rod Stewart.. :laugh:

If Linds does tour I bet both his fans attend the show(s).

Yeah we will have front row as he plays in a high school gymnasium

Amen. And they'd be extending themselves and growing as writers and musicians.

yes.

options are endless and all very creative. Lindsey can take some of the songs he recorded for FM back in 2012 add some new songs (and perhaps finish some GOS era remnants) and release a solo album this fall and tour in the spring.

Christine and Lindsey with Mick and John can release a FM album next spring since they already have 8 finished songs, and instead of waiting for Nicks they can just add a few more.

or Lindsey and Christine can have a small tour of solo songs combined with new songs.

so many great possibilities, wish SN/Pretenders tour would wake them up from the stupid waiting game they seem to be stuck in since beginning of 2014!

It would be more exciting if Lindsey and Christine
worked on an album together sans John and Mick.

Something new! And certainly a more interesting
project than anything Fleetwood Mac could do together.

I strongly disagree.

After 40+ years something new is what I want.

Do you like stale bread?

I agree, only because I think it would be more likely to happen if Mick isn't involved. He seems to be the one who's really committed to having Stevie be part of a new Fleetwood Mac album.

If CM & LB work together outside of the FM moniker they need to make sure they have the best flood insurance that money can buy because Mick will cry like he's never cried before...We're talking epic Noah's Ark biblical flood here...Can you even imagine...First Stevie does a stadium tour and takes a few possible swipes at her FM mates and then CM /LB put out a record and a tour without him...Mick would "Go Insane"

I like Mick and John but it would be
so much more interesting to have one
album with just Lindsey and Christine.

Meg White isn't busy right now.
Just an idea.

It could be interesting and certainly different....not Fleetwood Mac..
And I doubt they could use that name, but at least it would be new music..

Hey ... I like that idea! Who should we have on bass?

Haha well said. Exactly.

I agree about wanting something new. Not having Mick and John, however, is not the way I'd go about it. They're not what's stale about Fleetwood Mac. A Fleetwood Mac album comprising of Mick, John, Christine, and Lindsey is the kind change I could get behind.

That's what would be great about it.
It would allow them more freedom
without that name.

Thanks. Bass player Nathan East.

With them in tow it would have to be called Fleetwood Mac.

Lindsey and Christine with a new band might be the spark
that they need. It would be good for us too.

exactly.

but the stale part has the most historical commercial success and by far the best PR.

i do agree that either the 4 of them make and album under FM moniker, or Chris and Lindsey make an album without FM and call it something different. for the latter to happen, they'd have to redo the songs they already recorded with FM, so it seems a redundant effort.


meanwhile, i just bought tickets to see live the woman LB tagged as a possible replacement for SN in FM. very curious!

Eh, I think that's just wishful thinking on his part. They don't need a replacement for Stevie. In fact, I doubt Bekka would have gotten the nod if Christine hadn't retired from touring at the end of 1990, but they needed at least one female vocalist.

Just got Gift of Screws a month ago. That's a good one. Hope he does some of those.

It's time for the men of Fleetwood Mac to
make some changes, big changes. Oust Stevie
and Christine.

Replace Christine with Diana Krall. She's been
venturing into pop territory for awhile. Young,
blonde, plays the ivories. And that voice!

Though I'd rather him not be in the band, Elvis
Costello and Lindsey could collaborate on a few
songs.

Interested?

No need to replace someone who doesn't contribute
to the band. To answer the other question(s).

Don't make me hurt you.. lol

Lindsey we still want a solo tour

If you truly want to see FM go in a new and different direction and utilize Mick & Johns full talents on something other that slick pop songs then Lindsey is the one that needs to go...Bring in a guitar player (creator) like Neil Young or Jeff Beck...These guys have a history of not giving a rats a$$ what the industry or the people think of their songs or the direction they take...Neil Young walked away from both Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young because he thought they were getting too main stream...Mick and John are one of the greatest rhythm sections ever and a guy like Jeff Beck would maximize their talents...He could easily take them back to a blues band with a hint of fusion the real question is if Mick and John could keep up with him...

Mick threatened to unleash "The Men Of Mac" back in 2010 and had 3 years to make it happen...Did it happen NO!

In retrospect, I think the guys should have formed Buckingham Fleetwood McVie after Stevie decided not to record with them after the SYW tour. It would have been a viable way to function as a band without Stevie without kicking her out of Fleetwood Mac.

Sorry. It's just wishful thinking on my part.
Just wanting to surround Lindsey with youthful
talent.


A few years back when he teamed up with Little
Big Town they sounded more like Fleetwood Mac
than Fleetwood Mac.

2 things that i find baffling:

1. why do you keep coming in the thread about LB solo tour when it's obvious you can't care less about the topic and keep posting off topic remarks?

2. the question is not about who "needs to go" , it is which band member so obviously does not want to be in the band and yet keeps staying and doing her dam-nest to make the band irrelevant oldies touring band.

yes they did!
