Could this happen?
 

Here's a scenario: Let's say Fleetwood Mac puts out the big blowout Box Set I think theyre going to next year. I'm talkin 5 or 6 cd's including at least 1 with completely unreleased material. Perhaps 5 or 6 new songs and more older stuff too.:nod: Let's say it's billed as the 40th anniversary tour. Under this plan I think Christine might consider coming back for this one time. It wouldnt be a terribly long tour, and there wouldnt be a year and a half in the studio making an all new record. I'm sure it's a pipe dream of mine, but what the hell right?:laugh:

I've thought about that too. I seriously hope that if they do bill it as a farewell, or anniversary tour, that Chris will tour one last time. If they limit it to, say, 40 dates (40 years, 40 dates, get it?) without any chance of adding any more shows on, I hope she'd do it. I really don't think she will, but I hope. Like you said, in our dreams.

Fleetwood Mac Megacube! Fleetwood Mac Megacube! Fleetwood Mac Megacube!

Sorry, I just had to say it!

Fleetwood Mac Megacube! Fleetwood Mac Megacube! Fleetwood Mac Megacube! :blob2:

I know this has kinda been beaten to death, but if you sit and think about it, from a marketing standpoint, how many bands celebrate a 40th anniversary? I definitely believe something like this would sell more than a new cd, because at this point youd be celebrating their past, not trying to market a new cd trying to compete with all the lame-asses out there.

Christine won't do it.:( I'll bet anyone $100.00.
I think the only way she'd ever be talked into it would be if it were only one or two shows, in London.

I hope she does. I definitely would enjoy it, and I KNOW you would.:laugh:

I'm going to be positive and say I think something like this WILL happen. Roll on 2007.

NOTE: I didnt include other past member of the band because I felt Christine was the most likely to rejoin the band, as unlikely as that might be.

I won't be taking that bet. :distress:

Eh, I'm 95% sure Bob Welch would do it, if asked. Think how cool it would be to have Bob do 5 or 6 songs with them.:thumbsup:

Well, if I were him, I'd still be pissed about the whole hall of fame thing. Although he doesnt seem to be the type of person who holds long-term bitterness.

Me neither. She'll be 64 years old next year. She hasn't played live in nearly 10 years. After reading or hearing all those ITM interviews of two years ago, that's exactly the way she wants it.

I do think there will be some sort of box set/greatest hits compilation released next year.

Yeah, when you put it that way, it might make sense. At the least, do you think she'd contribute 2 or 3 fresh songs to the Box Set if that's what happens?

Absolutely, I believe all they'd have to do is ask her. She hinted in those interviews that she wouldn't have minded recording with them. The problem was the touring, which I think is ridiculous. She still LOVES recording in the studio.

So you think it was ridiculous she wouldnt tour? The other thing is that from everything I've heard, she still gets along well with all the current members. There are some bands out there where that's not the case. A prime example of that would be Don Felder and the Eagles.
